    Straight out. They will rip you off.. they will upsell you the most expensive package always. I…read moresaid i wanted the "20 mins" combination package and the guy was trying to upsell the "45 mins" package by saying "45, 45, 45". Foot massage was good. But the body massage was so painful bcs the guy will put his full body weight on me without even asking if I'm comfortable with the pressure. When it came to the Paying he was asking for more "Tips" by pointing to a big sign on the cashier counter "Tips". Also they encourage or ask for cash instead of card bcs it's easy for them undercut the customer so they wouldn't be liable for any damages they caused. Therefore always use a card to pay and even for tips. We will always chose small business whenever we can but when people try to take advantage of us we try not to ever visit them again. So be aware of this place.

    This was my first "professional" massage. I only came here because I got a certificate as a gift…read morefor Mother's Day. Disappointed is an understatement! I got the 30 min full body massage and was uncomfortable the entire time :( she was putting all her weight on me, pressing on my spine, beating me like I was a piece of meat & giggling & talking to her co worker the whole time. She didn't use her hands on my body but instead put a rag in between us so I didn't get the experience I thought I would get. When she was done she didn't say anything to me, I just walked out awkwardly. I left feeling more tense then I did when I walked in and extremely dissatisfied. I will never come here again or recommend anyone else to. Those other ratings are also true. They will try to get u to agree to have two people massage you and charge you double! Never again!!

    First, I would like to say that my previous visit was phenomenal. The masseuse by the name of Yoyo…read morewas excellent. I should have written a review about her, but this past experience really took away from the business as a hole and I will explain why. I purchased the Groupon for one hour deep tissue/Swedish massage. I have a friend visiting from out of town who also purchased the same Groupon offer. We called ahead of time and nobody answer the phone, and then somebody text from the establishment and we arranged for two massages within 30 minutes. Great! Upon arrival, they set up the rooms. We quickly went to our tables and proceed with the services. As my girl was entering in the room, I noticed she had her basket with two cell phones. Passing thought, I hope that's not a problem. well, I looked at the clock and it was 2:40 PM. During the massage, I kept hearing her answer the phone, in English, of course, to make arrangements for customers coming in. In between the phone calls when she was supposed to be massaging me, I felt her hand touching me as if she was making sure that I knew she was still there with her one handed very light touchmoving around on my leg and arm at different times. That behavior went on several times throughout the massage. I asked her to get into my shoulders and my neck with the deep tissue. Not only did she leave the room twice, take three business calls and spoke to clients while doing my massage, but several times I could tell she was texting because she was not massaging me, but rubbing me with her fingers of one hand while she was obviously distracted, and then she went back to two hands. When she finished the massage, I felt extremely gypped. Not to mention, she finished five minutes early. And for anyone getting a massage who really needs some muscles pushed, and work out because of pain, that five minutes is golden. Upon meeting my friend back in the front of the establishment, she was even more upset than me. She said that her girl kept talking on the phone, and her native language so she knew it was a personal call not a business call... And she did not follow her instructions either. I still tipped my girl $10 because I didn't have any change and my friend tipped her masseuse, six dollars. Hindsight, I should not have tipped them at all. And I'm a little upset about that. As we walked out of the establishment and shared our experience, I felt compelled to go back in and let her know how we felt about it. Of course she just smiled and said we will do better next time. I asked the girl where my previous masseuse was. She said she left for Seattle. I really hope they can do better because I thought I found my little diamond in the rough over there in the hood/not so great neighborhood.

    The Aura Spa has become one of my most favorite locations. Yoyo totally took care of my shoulder…read moreand back pain. She was AMAZING! The room was also quiet and clean. I walked away feeling totally relieved and would highly recommend this place. I will definitely be going back. Many thanks to the entire Aura Spa staff for my wonderful experience!

    I can't believe it took a Groupon to introduce me to this hidden gem! As someone who has had…read morefacials everywhere--from luxury resorts like the Four Seasons and Las Vegas spas to wonderful local favorites--I can honestly say this was one of the best facials I've ever hadby MYA. Don't judge the exterior--there's plenty of parking in the back, the spa is adorable, peaceful, and every staff member was genuinely warm and welcoming. Mya is an absolute gem. She may look young, but don't let that fool you--her knowledge, technique, and attention to detail surpassed many seasoned aestheticians I've seen over the years. She listened carefully to my skin concerns, explained every product, customized the treatment, and gave the most relaxing facial without cutting a single corner. My microdermabrasion add-on left my skin unbelievably smooth, radiant, and glowing. You can also tell she truly practices what she preaches--her own skin is flawless! Mya has earned a lifelong client, and I will be recommending her to everyone I know. I also had the chance to briefly meet the acupuncturist, who was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I can't wait to book with her as well. If you're looking for an exceptional facial, book with Mya--you won't regret it!
