    This head spa was nothing short of amazing. Mindy & Mia at the front desk took care of me so well. I was a walk-in and they had space for me on a Thursdays afternoon. I had the premium package which was good for what it costs & I included the 25 dollar exfoliating scalp treatment. I'm glad I did because it was much needed and worth it. It was very relaxing, this was my first time ever trying this massage. I have been looking into it but hadn't yet found the place. From the outside it looks very covered but there's plenty of parking. Will be back for more services and try something different.

    It was my first time getting any kind of scalp or facial treatment and I was pleasantly surprised with the experience! Everyone was very nice and even though I was nervous at first I quickly relaxed. It took about an hour or so, but afterwards my hair and face felt so much better. Would come back here again

    I did the platinum elite 90 minute experience with my friend and it was super relaxing, facial and head & neck massage are included. The products and scents involved were really calming and fresh, and the workers are super friendly!

    Had an amazing and relaxing experience at Aroma Head Spa! I definitely recommend it. The neck and shoulder massage was such a nice added bonus and of course, the scalp massage was my favorite part. I left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed!

    I booked this place for my mom for mother's day and she really enjoyed her experience! The facility was spotless and all the attendants were very sweet. There was complimentary water and snacks and discount if you pay with Zelle or Venmo!

    This place is truly amazing! Kathy took care of me from the moment I stepped in and was very thoughtful throughout the whole process. This was my first time here and I would definitely recommend it for anyone interested in trying out a head spa. I will certainly come back in the future!

    I adore this head spa so much and keep coming back for a reason!! From the moment you step in you feel at ease. They take you in instantly to change and get under the covers with a toasty covers for your feet and add a nice heated pillow for your stomach. They have so many different things that go on in the deluxe 90 min massage. Love it so much and the amazing facial! Check in for a goodie korean surprise!

    This place is amazing! I surprised my fiancé with an appointment and it was fantastic. Everything was so relaxing and accommodating. We loved it! I just wish I told my masseuse at the start that she could go a little harder. I came in with a sprained ankle, so I think she was just being gentle with me, which I appreciate! But next time I'll speak up about my preference. My fiancé's massage was perfect for him. They really worked out some knots and he left feeling great. We both loved the scalp treatment! Our scalps felt so clean and refreshed and the before and after was awesome to see! It was such a wonderful experience and we're already looking forward to coming back at least once a month! Thank you to the team for taking such good care of us, Aroma HeadSpa team! We'll see you again soon!

However, shortly before the massage started, I realized that my boyfriend was being massaged by the woman, while I was being massaged by an older man who had been at the front desk. I was never informed beforehand that I would be receiving a massage from a male therapist, nor was I asked whether I was comfortable with that. I feel like this is something a customer should be told before the massage begins, especially when we were not given a choice. During the massage, I became very uncomfortable. At one point, the man was using my buttocks area as a place to rest his right hand while massaging me with his left hand. When he was about to massage my legs, he placed the towel between my legs and pushed it against my private area twice. This was completely unexpected and made me extremely uncomfortable. My heart was racing throughout the massage because I felt uncomfortable and scared, but I didn't know how to react or what to say in the moment. The experience became more uncomfortable as time went on. He was mostly silent throughout the massage. Regardless of his intentions, I did not feel safe or comfortable with the way the massage was conducted. I believe clients should be clearly informed about who will be performing their massage and should be asked about their comfort level, especially when the therapist is a different gender than expected. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling very uncomfortable afterward, and I would not recommend this spa at all based on my experience.

    I really wanted to love this place, which is why I gave it a second chance and signed up for a…read moremembership again. Unfortunately, my experience the second time around was just as disappointing. The biggest issue for me was that the focus seemed to be more on selling memberships and expensive add-ons than on providing quality massage services. Every visit felt like there was pressure to purchase extras such as aromatherapy and other upgrades, all of which I found to be overpriced. On top of that, the pricing structure felt confusing and, at times, like there were hidden fees. The cost of services seemed to vary depending on the day of the week or the therapist, which was frustrating. I prefer straightforward, transparent pricing so I know exactly what I'm paying upfront, and that wasn't my experience here. I also wasn't impressed with the quality of the massages. The therapists were inconsistent, and after my last massage, I actually left in pain. That experience was the final reason I decided to cancel my membership. The cancellation process is where the customer service issues really became apparent. When I cancelled, I was told via text that I had one remaining massage credit to use. I signed the cancellation agreement, but admittedly (my bad) I overlooked the section stating that unused credits expire after 60 days. Three months later, I contacted the business to schedule my final massage and was informed that my credit had expired. While I acknowledge that I should have read the agreement more carefully, I was disappointed that no one mentioned the 60-day expiration when they told me I had a remaining credit. Since I had already paid for that service, I asked if they would consider honoring the credit as a courtesy. They said they would discuss it with the owner and get back to me. More than a week later, I still have not received a response. At this point, it's less about the massage credit and more about the lack of customer service. The combination of aggressive upselling, underwhelming massage quality, and poor follow-through left me feeling like the business was more focused on generating revenue than taking care of its clients. There are many massage options available, and I've personally had much better experiences elsewhere with better pricing, better service, and better results.

I love a good resort spa massage on vacation, but even the nicest of spas can't compare to this. I've been a regular here for almost 8 years, and the Swedish/thai combo is my go-to. Nikki has a way of listening to what your body needs without you even having to say anything. She reacts and adjusts based on what she observes. I always leave feeling stretched and relaxed. And one of my favorite parts of the experience is sitting quietly with the tea & crackers they serve at the end. It's a great way to ease back into the day after a relaxing session.

This also makes the business's emphasis on their "first 15 minutes" policy especially frustrating. I have been a customer for more than six years and had never had an experience like this. I was trying to give a therapist I had never seen before a fair opportunity to adjust after I gave her feedback, not watching the clock to make sure I exited before an arbitrary cutoff. I repeatedly communicated that the pressure was painful and asked her to adjust. My original complaint was not simply that I wanted a refund after finishing a massage I disliked. It was about a very poor experience despite my attempts to communicate, followed by a dismissive response when I brought it to the front desk. Their public response is considerably more apologetic than the response I actually received in person, but unfortunately the emphasis on what I should have done within the first 15 minutes only reinforces my disappointment with how this was handled. Apparently, my attempt to be patient and give the therapist a chance is now being used to suggest that I chose to accept the experience. Beware.
