Answer

“massage me up” isn’t used but it’d be understood by a native speaker. Adding “up” to certain phrases is a bit tricky (ex. “feel me up” meaning “touching someone sexually”, or “she’s all done up” meaning she spent time on her appearance in order to look good/elegant”, or “add it all up” meaning “add the figures together”, etc).

“right nice” isn’t used in the US, although “real/really nice” is used.

Answer

It's a slang phrase for "really well". I would not use it in everyday English unless you're saying it as a joke (usually said with a Southern accent).
