Zafran Zukifli (18th Dec 2025 via Google Business): I am not someone who frequents massages but after reading reviews and Ian’s website, I was convinced to give it a try. Long story short, I was glad that I did. After the massage, my body feels completely relaxed and rejuvenated. Furthermore, Ian takes his time to explain and announce what he is going to do next throughout the whole process. This made my whole experience reassuring and confident with his expertise. Thank you Ian for the patience and kindness. Will be looking forward to the next time im back in KL!

Anonymous (30th Oct 2025 via blog): Found Ian through online searches and by reading his blog. It is rare to have a therapist who finds his calling in massage and helping people with their physical ailments.

I would rate him 11/10. He knows the muscle groups, explains his process and knows exactly the right pressure to use. Most of all, he listened to my problems and reworked his massage strategy to meet my needs. He knows not just his massage techniques and human anatomy, but also all the oils he uses and advices on the right oils accordingly.

He is a joy to talk to because he is very intelligent, well-read and articulate. He is also very attentive, patient and hospitable. He also gave advice on how best to manage my condition after his massage.

I had the pleasure of being treated by him in his in-call service and he has set up his environment perfectly. Perfect lighting, temperature, ambience and music. Ian also provided easy-to-follow instructions to his place of business, and is very attentive and very clear on WhatsApp.

Definitely a loss to anyone who gave Ian a pass. Again, 11/10 and a rare gem in the massage/therapy world.

Goh Tuan Hock (26th Oct 2025 via Google Business): It was a great massage by Ian Chow — he’s truly professional and really understands the art of massage. His amazing skills, combined with the use of essential oils, made the session calm, relaxing, and deeply rejuvenating. After the massage, my whole body felt completely released and refreshed. Highly recommended!

Chris Hicks ( 20th July 2025 via Google Business): I was in KL for a few days and since I am very familiar with Ian’s professional massage therapy, I decided that this would be an opportune time to meet him and to receive his massage work. Ian is very gifted in his massage work and well understands the function of the different muscle groups and how they contribute our health and mobility. His massage is also relaxing for people like me who value touch. I certainly recommend Ian and look forward to my next session with him.

Anonymous (9th June 2025 via blog): I found Ian online through his website with insightful information and ensured I called him when in KL. I found Ian very professional and knowledgeable. He made me feel at ease and his technique was fantastic. I left feeling much better and with knowledge to take forward for manhood health to aid fertility.

Anonymous (7th April 2025 via blog): Upon with all the good comments, i was not disappointed with Ian. Luckily i was able to make an appointment with him on my KL trip. His massage was special that was not standard flow from what you experience normally. He started with putting 8 kinds of EO blend on your spine area and massage it to your body. And then he started reviewing your body/muscle and professionally doing his treatment massage which covering all parts of your body muscle. At the end of massage session, he even gave you his advice about your body condition and how you can improve to prevent certain problem that you already see the symptom by now. I really enjoy and appreciate for the session.

JL @ Dragonfly (1st March 2025 via WhatsApp): Although it has been 3 years since I last get a massage from Ian, I still remember some of his massage techniques which I cannot get from other therapists. The touches are special, never reluctant in his every move.

Anonymous (7th Sept 2024 via blog): I had a fantastic massage session with Ian. He is not only a highly professional and knowledgeable therapist but also very generous in sharing self-massage techniques that I found incredibly helpful. Throughout the session, Ian took the time to point out which parts of my body needed extra care for long-term well-being, which I truly appreciated. The entire experience was enjoyable from start to finish. Ian’s place is peaceful, surrounded by beautiful greenery, which creates a relaxing atmosphere. The room’s ambiance was spot on, making the session even more soothing. I highly recommend Ian for anyone looking for a skilled therapist in a serene setting.

Dr Saravanan (30th July 2024 via blog): I was feeling rather stressed and needed to relax and my first thought was to book a full body massage with Mr Ian Chow. On my first visit with Mr Ian I was made to feel very welcome and I knew I was in good hands. The atmosphere was really great and the relaxing massage from Mr Ian was enough to send me a million miles away from stresses of everyday life. Mr Ian has an ability of putting his clients at ease and ensures you are comfortable throughout the massage and his knowledge in anatomy was amazing. Could feel the passion towards his profession when he massage.I would recommend to all my family and friends to book a treatment with him.
 

Ng Kit Phuah (30th June 2024 via Google Business): Ian started with assessment before he start the message. He also do explain to you about your body when he message. Very good service and i got high confidence for him to do treatment on me.

ACR (9th June 2024 via Google Business): Ian’s knowledge and skills help to target my challenging areas. He is also great at checking in on the level of pressure of his massage. On top of that, the oil that he uses soothes both my body and senses. The overall experience is simply amazing. I can’t wait for my next session!

KP (26th April 2024 via Google Business): Hello, I’ve experienced many different massages here and abroad but this one was unique. Ian is a professional massage therapist with a lot of knowledge and experience. He’s really passionate about it. You can feel it during the session. Moreover, feel free to check his website before the visit. It totally convinced me. You will be positively shocked at how much valuable content you can find there. Not only he shared so many reviews of massages in Malaysia but also shared useful and helpful things. Long story short, it’s so worth it. If you hesitate just don’t! trust me on this

Anonymous (23rd Feb 2024 via blog): This is my second time with Ian and I like the new incall venue. It was serene and modern, with very good ambience. Ian is very professional and he made proper enquiry about you before the session. He checks in with you from time to time and happy to work on your concerns if any. I am no expert but I would say Ian’s style involves finger work, palm rotation, acupuncture points and a bit of stretching. Basically you’ll get to experience a bit of everything. What I do know is I came away relax and revitalised after the session, not too forget of having a good chat and learning tips on wellbeing from him. All in all, I highly recommend Ian’s services. P/s: Ian also picked me up and dropped me off to MRT station! Many thanks for that.</p>

Colin Noble (21st Jan 2024 via Google Business): Thank you Ian for the great massage! My partner and I both benefitted a lot from Ian’s treatment. You must visit him if you’re in KL.

Ivans Chee (28th Dec 2023 via Google Business): Had a painful lower back on Sunday, had TCM but it take times. Got to know Ian from my friend introduced, went for a treatment session with him. Ian is very professional and explain situation in details. Right after the massage session done, I can straight away feel a huge recovery from it, what really amazed me is on the next day morning, I wake up in with smooth and natural movement I used to. A big huge thank for Ian’s top-notch skills!

Miguel Gomez (7th Nov 2023 via Google Business): Amazing technique, all details very well attended, beautiful places, amazing smell of oils and tranquility. My best massage ever!

Shawn Poh (15th Oct 2023 via Google Business): Met Ian during a trip to KL for massage therapy but got so much more! He gave useful advice and pointers to look out for! Massage was great and relaxing. Definitely will look up ian again the next time I’m back in KL! Will recommend if looking for impeccable massage 🙂

Mattz (7th Sept 2023 via blog): Came across Ian randomly and decided to chat him up to know more about his services. Was great to know that he uses decent oil instead of those cheap oil. Need to fill in questionnaire to let him know more about ur body condition and what areas u need help with.
Easy to talk person and let u feel comfortable to engage in decent conversation. Pressure was good and he let u know what he is about to do. Towards the end, he gives u some pointers to improve ur everyday health.
Would definitely go to him again.

Eddie (6th Aug 2023 via blog): Had a very good massage yesterday, my first with Ian; will definitely go for more!
Not only is Ian very skillful and professional but he is kind giving valuable advice, making you feel like a friend who wantsant to help you with your issues.
Slept well last night and feel energetic today!

Casey Kam (26th June 2023 via Google Business): There are no pain during the massage process. Thanks Ian for helping me to solve my problem. I am very happy and at ease now. Also giving me good advice to help me maintain my manhood health. 🙂

KS Chung (15th June 2023 via FB): I engaged Ian for a massage session as part of my preparation for bodybuilding contest. After each session, I feel the muscle are greatly relived and heal better from weight lifting session.

Ian also provide good advice too. I will recommend him.

Jonathan Lee CW (30th April 2023 via blog): Ian is very knowledgeable and attentive. I enjoyed the session as his pressure is good and will focus on the areas that needs fixing. Besides that, he is also very friendly and professional. Will definitely come back again.

Ben Lee (5th April 2023 via blog): One of the top massage I been visit.
If someone in KL are looking for professional massage to relax body n mental. This is someone you can trust and enjoy the massage session.

Alex (7th March 2023 via whatsapp): Thank you for the great massage. Fabulous total experience. My suite smelt very nice, lingering overnight. Your oils are first rate.

Helen Paul (26th Dec 2022 via Google Business): I had a sudden shooting pain from my right hip etc down to my feet that mobility became painful n very limited. Contacted Ian thru my regular massage therapist, and despite his tight schedule he came over to give me the much help. Ian explained all the tight muscles n tissues involved n worked on them. He also gave me few tips post-massage, to help ease that pain. Within 2 days, i can get up without that orang tua kind of movement. Tq Ian. He comes highly recommended. What a kind personality too.

Eu Jin Lim (11th Dec 2022 via Google Business): Highly recommended for in-house professional massage services and I learned a lot from Ian on the importance of taking care of our body. Thank you Ian for the excellent service.

Tan Eng Hong (23rd Oct 2022 via blog) – this is just an excerpt, please scroll to the comment section for full notes from this particular reviewer
Spent time to understand my physical injury history before and during the session.
Uses quality massage oil blend with essential oil.
Felt comfortable as he does not rush throughout the session.
Not just apply force but follow the body or muscle condition to give massage. Feel comfortable and relax.
Not just a merely massage session but with much sense of therapy approach.

Nelly (1st Sept 2022 via whatsapp): You have been great and helpful. I will pass on the messages and words around. Great service. Much appreciated. *Service refering to oncology / cancer massage

WL Chung (26th June 2022 via Google Business): I browsed through Ian Chow Massage Therapy’s page and found it is very informative which Ian shared a lot of knowledge pertaining to massage. (Kudos to Ian for his effort!)

Hence I decided to book a session with him. The massage started with appetizer, i.e.the doTerra Aroma Touch and followed by main course – the treatment massage and manhood therapy.

I am satisfied with Ian’s massage. My stiff neck and backache are very much relieved after the session. He also shared some exercises that I can practise in order to relax my neck and back that encountered stiffness and ache frequently.

Looking forward for next appointment with Ian.

Danny Kwok (24th Feb 2022 via Facebook page review): As a therapist, I am picky on how the other therapist work. As Ian laid his hand, I already know he can work well on my body. There is no 100% good but he already achieved 90% and above of what I needed. I have booked him 2 times now and both never disappoint me. I love the aroma of the oil which makes me feel so relax, even after the session, the smell still linger in my room. The rubs and press were just good and not too light or hard as he understands the amount of pressure to put in based on my needs. I always find tough to get someone that I like when comes to massage. Thank you Ian for there to relax my body.

SP (21st Dec 2021 via whatsapp): Thank you so much for your services! It is really professional.

Marvin Ng (16th Sept 2021 on Google Business): Professional massage! Will definitely come back again. Thanks for all the detailed treatment!

Kevin Yeoh (4th April 2021 via Facebook page review): Ian is a very friendly guy who will make you feel at ease. Love his detail to attention with soothing music and nice-smelling diffuser. He came prepared! Very knowledgeable and detailed oriented. Ian will explain the pressure points that affect me and make me understand them. Highly recommended and cannot wait to book another session with him!

Max Ng (25th February 2021 via whatsapp): Great massage therapist.👍🏻👍🏻 u r very concerned about my problem areas n professional. Making me feel comfortable n relax.

Chong Eugene (15th February 2021 on Facebook page review): Ian is very professional and friendly. The ambience was really good with the nice smell of his specially mixed essential oil. Love it! Very calm n relaxing!
His skill is superb, every pressure point really kena n he will explain to u regarding ur issues.
Highly recommended! If u looking for a professional therapist with good attitude and skill, he is the one 😄

Lee Swee Keong (18th January 2021 on Facebook post): 按摩师的身心健康是重要的，这样条件的按摩师真的不容易找。我要推荐 Ian 的按摩服务给大家.
他用 doterra 的椰子油与精油，全程都在当下，从容地进行。
他说客人有一半是上了年纪的女性，看来他对女人男人都很有办法，还有为癌友做的护理按摩。
让我说得感性一点 ～
让久违的肌肤，身体与心灵得到掌心的呵护。

Gary Ktn (27th December 2020 on Facebook post): Had a 75 min treatment massage by Ian. His massage skill is the thorough. Throughout all the therapist I experienced you are the best. Well done.

Nick Au (5th December 2020 on Facebook page review): Ian is both your therapist and consultant. he knows where your pain points are and addresses them systematically. He adopts a holistic approach in his massages and ensures your body respond well to the treatment. He was even able to tell that my body was tense on my lower left and my upper right. Indicative of probably poor posture and favouring one side of the body more than the other.

Overall 10/10 experience with him and I’d definitely be booking my next slot.

Evangeline Lim (2nd December 2020 on Facebook page review): A very knowledgeable therapist, that can help to identify certain problems your body may be facing by just a touch. Ian Chow’s massages are not only relaxing, but helps in treating the body. He takes the time to pre-asses the conditions/concerns his clients have. Every session is unique because he ‘listens’ to your body to tailor his massage therapy to provide relief that helps your well-being.

I love that he uses a variety of treatment methods like the myofascial technique. The experience is wholesome with candles, aromatherapy using high grade essential oils, and soothing music to aid in your mental and emotional wellness too during the sessions. He also sanitises himself thoroughly upon entering your home. A professional therapist indeed. I love that I can have therapies in the comfort and safety of my own home. Highly recommended!

Joury Kim (19th November 2020 on Google Business): I have always wanted to try his services after reading about it. Ok, finally my turn is here. Ian is truly professional before arrival at my place. One needs to answer questions and revert back. While he was here, I felt very at ease due to his friendly nature. Massage is top notch and good, comfortable strength applied. Well, definitely will call him again and in fact I have recommended a friend. He said will make appointment this Saturday. Well, good luck as Ian Chow is very popular/ sought after . Thank you.

Gary Mok (21st August 2020 on Facebook page review): Very attentive and detailed therapist, he is well versed on how to best target all areas of the body. He also spends the extra time to make sure everything is addressed.

Edlyn Khoo (20th August 2020 on Facebook page review): Booked a massage therapy session at home for my Mom and I. Ian did an assessment before the session to understand where we needed treatment the most, and also to find out any existing conditions/injuries that we had. He brought a massage table, with clean towels, speakers for relaxing spa music and scented candles too. He ensured the table, towels and all other items required were sanitized before use. The massage itself was professional and therapeutic, and he ensured to check if the pressure was OK. Would book a session again.

Sean Khor (14th July 2020 on WordPress):

Skills 5/5 – why i give this rating is that he really puts in effort for the message to make sure that it really treats you for the problem you are having.

Products used 5/5 – from a nice oil to scented candle, he turns your hotel into a spa

Overall: I would definitely go for Ian again when i am in KL. note that the session is strictly professional and no hanky-panky type. By the time he is done with the massage you would have realized that you are really relaxed for 60 mins. the last 15 mins is more towards stretching. he also thought me how to press on some points on my feet to relieve headache. I hope i am pressing it right.
