Palma Sign
There is a new massage place at the Mihama American Village and it is pleasantly clean and affordable with a courteous staff. Their prices are very affordable compared to other massage places that charge almost double. Palma Relaxation Room just recently opened and I tried their acupressure massage. The rates are a great deal. I chose a 20 minutes session for 2,000 yen.
Palma Lobby
Once I entered their lobby, the staff gave me a cool towel that smelled heavenly along with a cold cup of green tea. After a few minutes, I was ushered to the massage room that was very clean and private. The rooms are divided by walls and curtains so you will hear other people but you still get your privacy.

Palma Room
The therapist who worked on me was very friendly even if she spoke limited English. She told me that she studied acupressure (a type of massage in which one’s pressure points are massaged in order to relieve pain) so that made me feel good that I was being massaged by someone who knew what she was doing.
If you combine the affordable price, clean place, relaxing ambiance and courteous staff, Palma Relaxation Room is a great place to go for a simple, no-fuss massage.

After a rough couple weeks at the base due to the ORI on Kadena this place hit the spot. I did the half hour body massage( therapeutic) and it was fantastic!!! Service was above and beyond all expectations and at only 2000 yen was worth that and then some, they’ll will certain be seeing me on a regular basis. The massage itself left me feeling like a new person. 5 stars easily.
