My path to booking a massage with Chelsea Privitera through Creative Wellness was random…read more I discovered I had a wellness card through my health insurance on 12/31 (can you say last minute?) and was in a panic looking for wellness places I could purchase a gift card from, online, for therapeutic treatments (I already have enough supplements for a lifetime). Luckily, I found Creative Wellness sold gift cards and provided online appointment booking for their advertised services. I knew I needed a massage, badly, and booked a 60 minute session with the first practitioner available: Chelsea Privitera. (I found out later that Chelsea is a separate entity than Creative Wellness, and even though she doesn't directly take Creative Wellness gift cards, Creative Wellness does honor them by reimbursing Chelsea, which I'm incredibly thankful for. It can be confusing because it looks like Chelsea is part of Creative Wellness when booking the appointment. When my gift card runs out, I will definitely be returning to Chelsea either way.) Upon arrival to the beautiful new location at Cardea Health Integrative, I noticed there were multiple buildings, and two of them looked residential. I started to have some anxiety about where to go; not wanting to walk into someone's house, so I walked towards the first building to the left when you enter the main driveway. It's a big white multi-storied house with a garage to the right of the house and has a sign for CHI. This house was indeed the place where Chelsea was located. Chelsea was nice enough to wait by the front door, otherwise I would've been lost and my agoraphobia could have spiraled more, which is not great prior to when you're supposed to relax. (Hopefully Creative Wellness will put up some signs to help guide clients to the right location. Apparently, there are two buildings with their practitioners. I am not sure which building it is in.) Chelsea was wonderful to talk to and she was very intentional with the therapeutic process and cared about what I wanted to work on during the session. I've been to a lot of massages where the room is cold, and even though this was an old (and incredibly gorgeous) house, there was a warm heating pad and a heater in the room, which was helpful. There was also a bathroom connected to the room, which was very convenient. The massage itself with Chelsea was wonderful. I really couldn't have hoped for a better one. I loved the scalp massage, the soothing herbal eye compress, and the warm towels placed on my back and neck at the end of the massage. Chelsea found the spots that were more troublesome on my back and neck (I'm a full-time cybersecurity researcher and writer. I type A LOT). I'm grateful she took the time to treat these areas. In summary, I will definitely go back to experience another massage treatment with Chelsea! Thanks!

I have been going to Creative Wellness since its inception about 3 years ago. Location has moved…read moreas business expanded, but the quality of service has remained consistently top notch. Primarily I have attended Yoga classes, but have also done Reiki, Reflexology, New Moon Integrations and Tai Chi. I have also attended programs for healthy diet. All have been wonderful! As Covid has impacted our lives, I now attend my Yoga classes virtually. In-person classes are still available. A variety of classes are offered every day at many different times, making it easy to fit into my schedule. Each instructor brings a special, unique feel to the practice and I always end my practice feeling better. Even my yellow lab will lay down and be soothed by the Yogi's calming voice! I can't imagine not having Creative Wellness in my life. I have made friendships and have become a healthier version of me through the wonderful, caring guidance of Susan, the owner, and her dedicated staff. Highly recommend!!

I like a bit of a deeper massage and I feel like she really gets in there and works out the knots and kinks and yet I've never cursed her out.

Conveniently located in East Aurora and more affordable than other area spas, but unfortunately the…read moreold maxim that you get what you pay for holds true here. I had a gel manicure and a massage done by the same person, which probably tells you something. The gel manicure looks awful - I can paint my own nails with more skill. Some nails are lumpy and uneven and on others the polish doesn't even come all the way to the tip of the nail. I didn't notice it until I got out into the sunlight or I'd have asked for them to be redone, but I don't really want to go back. The massage itself was just OK, but there was no discussion of what would be used (typically a scented oil of your choice, in my experience) and the massage therapist employed some kind of lotion that smelled cheaply and VERY strongly of fruit. Very cloying and the opposite of pampering or relaxing. I ended up going home and showering to get it off ASAP. The spa itself is rather odd. It is clearly a converted office building. The massage rooms are separated by yellow cubicle walls and there are fluorescent lights on the ceiling (not in use, thankfully.) No one else was there during my visit, but I can't imagine relaxing if one of the other stalls had been in use. It is nicely decorated, but it was obviously done on a tight budget. The reception area looks and feels like a doctor's office with slightly better furniture, and this is where you sit to wait for your appointment. No fluffy robes or cucumber water here! To be fair, it seems like the right intentions are there and the staff I encountered were friendly. If there were other reviews on Yelp, I probably wouldn't post one as it is not my intention to bash them. But as a consumer I want a better experience for my money, so I cannot recommend it to others.
