    This was my first visit to this spa, and it made an excellent first impression! It's located in the…read morebeautiful Summit area, and from the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and made to feel welcome. I recommend arriving 15 to 20 minutes before your appointment. That gives you plenty of time to check in, change into a robe, and settle in before your services begin. I treated myself to a pedicure and the restorative sleep massage. Peyton showed me to the women's locker room, where we discovered my name was not on any of the lockers. However, that turned out to be a God thing. I changed into a robe and slippers, excited for my experience to begin! A little note for my fellow plus size friends: don't worry, they have robes up to a 4X, which I really appreciated. They also have a beautiful, quiet relaxation room where you can unwind before and after your services. Peyton offered me a complimentary drink and gave me some option. I asked her if they had any non-alcoholic "fancy" drinks. She said they did a prepared a beautiful, refreshing drink and put it in the quiet room for me to enjoy. Milah did my pedicure, and we made a genuine connection while we talked. She did an excellent job refreshing my feet, and I loved that she began the service with aromatherapy. It was such a relaxing touch. She's got many years of experience and I highly recommend her!! Next was my restorative sleep massage with Quanette. Before she began, she took the time to ask about any problem areas and anything she should be mindful of. The massage room was peaceful, beautifully designed, and filled with soft, calming sounds. The massage itself was incredible, everything I hoped it would be and more. When I was ready to leave a huge downpour came, leaving me in the lobby to wait it out. One of the ladies offered me a poncho! Such an unexpected convenience. I will absolutely be back when I'm able to. The entire experience was relaxing, thoughtful, and restorative from beginning to end. It was the perfect way to celebrate 12 years in recovery.

    I visited Woodhouse Spa with my sister for our birthday, and we had such a relaxing experience!…read moreFrom the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming. They offered complimentary wine, champagne, or mimosas along with a nice snack bar, which was a great touch. Our massage therapists were incredibly kind, thorough, and never made us feel rushed. They took their time to make sure we had the best experience possible. I booked the Swedish massage with deep tissue focused on back. My only suggestion would be to add a few more amenities to enjoy before or after treatments. Other than that, everything was wonderful, and I would definitely come back for another spa day!

    Yes they are pushy to sell but I LOVE my results of laser hair removal. I notice a huge difference…read moreafter just one treatment. The staff has been super friendly and the treatment is relatively pain free just a little uncomfortable at times for a few seconds. Some areas are more sensitive than others. I highly recommend this place.

    I purchased a prepaid laser hair removal package at the LaserAway Birmingham-Summit location…read morebecause they offer Nd: YAG laser treatment, which is commonly used for darker skin tones/melanated skin. As an African-American woman, I chose this location very intentionally. My treatments were originally going well with an RN who is no longer at that location. After she left, I received a treatment from a different RN who missed an entire area. Because that area was missed, I intentionally left it unshaved when I arrived for my next appointment so I could show her exactly where the hair had been left untreated. During that next appointment, she acknowledged the area and said she would make sure to get it "this time." She then proceeded to laser the visible unshaved hair. I specifically asked whether the area should be shaved first and offered to shave it myself, but she said it was okay and continued with the treatment. After that session, I experienced burning and visible thin, curved dark markings in the treated area that appeared consistent with where the hair had been left on my skin. I reported the issue, sent photos, and asked for the matter to be addressed. The RN later acknowledged that she did laser the area with visible hair present and apologized. She explained that she assumed the hair was short enough that it would simply burn off. I expected something as simple as a replacement treatment for the session where I was burned during the treatment, especially since the issue was not denied and staff at the location also acknowledged that the visible hair being lasered appeared to be the issue. Instead, my concern was later minimized by a "corporate representative" during a phone call (after months of waiting). She characterized the burning and visible markings as "microcrusting," but did not directly address the specific treatment decision: whether visible unshaved hair should have been lasered after I asked about shaving it first. The same corporate representative also identified herself one way during our phone call, but used a different title in her email signature, which added to my concern about how this matter was being handled. LaserAway then ended my remaining prepaid services. I did not ask for a refund or request cancellation. LaserAway decided to end my remaining prepaid services and issue a prorated refund without asking whether that was acceptable to me despite having only asked for the treatment incident to be addressed. This was especially disappointing because I had successfully received treatments from other RNs at this location without this problem and always complimented them. The way I was dismissed from continuing services felt personal and discriminatory. Based on my experience, I personally would not recommend this location to African-American women seeking laser hair removal. My concern is not only the treatment incident itself, but how it was handled afterward.
