I had the most relaxing time here today! Umberto gave an amazing massage and the sensory deprevation tank was such a cool and relaxing experience!

Their customer service rocks! Brought my boyfriend here for the tank and a couples massage. Everything was perfect and they accommodated us even though I was late and missed my reflexology appointment. They moved it around to after our couples massage (while bc was in tank) so I could still have it. Boyfriend felt like a million bucks after everything. Said the massage was wonderful but the tank really helped him decompress. More...

I do not usually get massages but I’m going to change that now since Candace gave me a shoulder and neck massage! She has magical fingers.

A one hour massage with Vivian is like a virtual spa resort weekend. Pampering and hot towels, soft sheets and soothing environment, Highly recommend as a regular routine.

We had a fabulous spa experience last weekend! Umberto and Vivian are true masters in their craft. We decided to go with a few upgrades and had the Ashiatsu massages. It was the best massage we have ever had and will continue to travel the hour plus to come back. They listened to our needs and what we were both looking for. We knew everyones name by the time we left. They gave us a tour so we felt at home. Tao is clean and then energy there is powerful! Thank you again! We can't wait to come back!! More...

Vivian is a master at her craft and this was the first time I experienced Ashiatsu massage, I left feeling great. Plan on going back regularly. By far Tao is the best in the area and it shows. More...

I've been to Tao twice and both times the float and the massage were incredible. You leave this place walking on air.

Had an amazing massage today from Vivian. I had intense sholder pain and was here once before for my lower back issue this Spring. I remembered the incredibly thorough and unmatched skill level and the "true craft" Â that I was provided then by Vivian, Â so I called and I was very lucky there was a last minute cancellation today . I feel after the visit about 1000 percent better! . Thank you Vivian and Tao Massage! See you again soon! More...

I AM VERY IMPRESSED. I experienced my first float at TaoMassage's new location in Asbury Park! I was treated with such kindness and professional customer service by the staff. The environment is a beautiful sanctuary for getting away from it all for a bit. My Floating Experience was so peaceful, I was in the womb as well as the Cosmos! I was free.......... Thank you, Vivian and your team. Much success to you, my lady ;) More...

I have been hooked on the Notox Botox for over a year now. From the moment I walk in the door, my stress disappears. I started at Vivian's other location and followed her to the new awesone location. It is not only relaxing but revitalizing. I highly recommend the Notox Botox for a non-invasive way to look younger and brighter. More...

The excitement of the new opening at Bangs Ave. is titillating. The owner Vivian is a real guru in alternative healing and wellness. Unique massage techniques rarely found elsewhere and many amazing wellness tricks I only dreamed about before now. If you are looking for ways to feel better and to Thrive, go to Tao... You will be enthralled by your company there and leave with tingles. More...

Great place to get an amazing massage, float, sauna or get a facial. People there are professional, kind and know their business and how to treat their clients.
I liked it so much I work there per diem. Come on in during the week or anytime and take a tour of the facility and meet some of the therapist. You will not be disappointed.
Vivian is great at her craft (ashiatsu, notox, etc) and if you need someone to do some neuromuscular work on your body go with Andreas. Roseanne is great with her feet and Umberto well, he is great with his intense relief massage.

My experience with Tao Massage was delightful and restorative. As an experienced massage therapist for 20 years, i am in need of great bodywork. ..and Umberto's work was conscious, present and intuitive as well as clinical. He addressed specific issues resulting from a complex surgery several months ago..and my first experience with his work has been nothing short of a miracle. It was a transformative session and I am sooo grateful! Thank you Umberto!? More...

I’ve been coming to Tao for 2 years for various services, mostly ashiatsu massage to destress with Vivian but I’ve also had some amazing facials. While on vacation I pulled my piriformis muscle which irritated my sciatic nerve and had been seeing my doctors and going to physical therapy to work on recovering. Progress has been slow. In one hour yesterday Vivian was able to accomplish what 2 doctors multiple prescriptions and 6 weeks of PT haven’t !!! I am pain free and I am so very grateful. I can walk normally for the first time in 6 weeks !!!! More...

I've been going to Vivian for several years and this has been my best !!! I received a year of Ashiatsu massgaes as a gift and having recently moved to Asbury, I'm taking full advantage of the proximity. The only other massage I'll receive is when away at a resort . Unfortunately the quality and results are nowhere close to the relief I get after a session with Vivian. More...

After many months of intense training, muscles get tight. Apparently I'd rather get walked on than use a foam roller.Vivian went above and beyond making me feel like a valued customer. Kind and thoughtful, I was impressed with Vivian's pre-appointment contact and follow-up note after my visit. A phone consult describing Ashiatsu massage, a new experience for me, and providing options for which products would be used during the massage instilled confidence I had chosen the right place. Â She showed an exemplary level of professionalism, care, and attention to detail.The massage itself was great - 10/10, would get heeled again. If you're the type who has taken an elbow to your obstinate knots and felt like more pressure would be euphoric, the Ashi fulfilled that wish for me. Â That's not to say I would call the IT band manipulation the most pleasant experience I've ever had on the table, but I keep my expectations realistic when a therapist is digging through stubborn tissue: love-hate. Â Even so, any discomfort was soon forgotten because Vivian was receptive to feedback and a skilled conversationalist. (I recently bought one of the books she talked up during the session for summer reading.)It's one thing to leave a review after your first appointment. It's another to go once and make the place your go-to for all future pampering - TaoMassage has become that place for my massage needs. Â Thanks! More...

Prior, I experienced hand and stone, massage envy but this place knocks them out of the water. After my first massage it moved moons. Then, my second one came and that was something beyond words.

First time float was better than amazing!!! I definitely recommend more than 60 minutes. As a first timer the staff was extremely helpful and insightful. I wish I lived closer to go more often but I will try to arrange a trip soon and make sure to book my appointment. Amazing staff, service, and an impeccable clean ambiance at a fair price.

I've been a client of TaoMassage for ten years and recently had a massage by, Kayla, one of the new therapists to join the Tao team. Â Kayla has a heightened intuition and, throughout my massage, I was in awe of the way she was able to tune-in to the areas on my body that needed special attention. Â Her ability to bring peace and calm during my massage was so appreciated. Â I knew I was in good hands the moment she welcomed me at the front desk. Â She is gifted. More...

Â Highly skilled, attuned, attentive. Â Every moment of my massage was meaningful and spot on. Â So grateful I had time to fit in a massage while visiting family at the shore. Â Highly recommended.
