I have been a member of this gym and have always come to work out, mind my own business, and leave…read more Unfortunately, my experience on June 30 completely changed how I feel about this facility. Around 8:30 PM, the General Manager, Yanni, approached me on the gym floor while I was working out instead of asking to speak with me privately. In front of other members, he told me that my body was making people uncomfortable and claimed he had received several complaints about the way I dress. I repeatedly asked what I was wearing that violated the dress code since I was wearing standard gym attire--a workout shirt and athletic shorts. He could not identify a specific clothing violation. Instead, he repeatedly compared my body to "more shapely women" who supposedly "cover themselves more" and threatened multiple times to cancel my membership simply because I was asking questions and trying to understand the alleged complaints. When I asked to review the dress code, the posted policy simply stated that proper gym attire and closed-toe shoes are required. There was nothing stating that my clothing violated any policy. What upset me most was not being approached, but how I was approached. This conversation should have taken place privately, not on the gym floor where other members could overhear it. I left feeling embarrassed, body shamed, singled out, and humiliated. I wear athletic clothing designed for the gym, just like countless other women. I cannot change my natural body shape, nor should anyone be made to feel uncomfortable simply because they have a curvier figure. Clothing naturally shifts during exercise, especially on different body types, and that should not be mistaken for inappropriate behavior. After this incident, several members and trainers approached me and expressed that they felt the situation was handled unfairly. Some even shared their own negative experiences with management. Every member deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and consistency. I hope management seriously reviews how situations like this are handled in the future because no one should leave the gym feeling publicly humiliated for simply existing in their own body.

I pay extra for access to the InBody scanner, but when I tried to use it, it was locked. I asked a…read moretrainer if he could help unlock it, and he told me he couldn't because he had an important meeting with his boss. I understand that meetings happen, but as a paying member, I expected someone to take a minute to help or at least find another staff member who could. Instead, I was left feeling like my time and membership didn't matter. If you're going to charge extra for a service like the InBody scanner, there should always be a way for members to access it during staffed hours. Very disappointing customer service.

Neither was addressed and pressure was light-medium at best. Arms and legs got a lot of attention but my arms and legs did not need attention. Somewhat relaxing for what it was but not what I asked for or feel like I paid for. Therapist also stopped a few times as if distracted. I almost asked if she was ok, then she came back to life and kept going. It was odd. Is that some energy healing modality? Products for sale were very scented, which I am sensitive to but massage used scent free products. Thank you. I'd try another service or different therapist with a specific therapeutic deep tissue or Thai massage focus. Maybe book more days in advance. The space is fantastic.

I'd been…read moremeaning to come to Get Well Soon for quite some time and I finally got around to booking an appointment for the infared sauna. It's located in the Ghent area. If you are familiar with this part of Norfolk, you probably know that parking in this side of town can sometimes be challenge. There are about 4 parking spaces in front of the building or you can park across from it on the street. Booking was very simple and straight forward. Be prepared to pay for the service in it's entirety when booking. If you are booking as a couple, your guest will need to fill out the intake form in person because the online booking only allowed me to fill out one. Loved decor here. The Seafoam green gives it a nice touch and it matches their website. Super clean in here too. I had to use the restroom before we entered the sauna and I was very pleased with how neat and tidy it was We were directed to our room for the infared sauna. There are plenty of towels and robes for guests. I loved the sauna, it was really nice and relaxing for the both of us. The only thing that I didn't like was the little draft at the bottom of the door. This prevented the temperature from going up, but other than that, I felt amazing after. We will definitely be back.

I received the Standard Plus facial from Kailey back on July 3. It. was. everything. Kailey knows her stuff. Once I had changed and Kailey adjusted my headband I received a brief aromatherapy treatment. I've gotten plenty of facials before but this was the first time any aesthetician has ever done that. She placed the oil on her wrists and had me breathe deeply in and out before starting my service. It was the perfect touch because if you're like me, you're probably rushing to your appointments. My facial was amazing. This was my first service with Kailey but it won't be my last. She examined my skin before she began. I loved the fact that she answered all my questions and even gave my suggestions for different services to look into during the winter months. Extractions are always a love-hate experience for me but all of the congestion from my face was removed and my skin was so soft when I left. During the facial Kailey and I chatted about other treatments that would be great for my skin, how often I should be receiving facials, and my at-home routine. I'd also like to add that Kailey is a product wiz! When we were quarantined she helped me revamp my entire skin routine. I think we all dealt with maskne but I also believe my diet and stress caused my skin to go into panic or something. Kailey and I texted and talked over the phone about my skin and its needs. My whole regimen got a much-needed facelift and my skin is doing so much better. Anytime she recommends something for me (and no she doesn't sell products so no gimmicks there) I get it! Since then I have had minimal (and I mean minimal) breakouts and the texture of my skin has improved drastically. We're currently working on tone and hyperpigmentation and I'm excited to see those results. I'll be returning for another facial with Kailey at Get Well Soon the next time I'm back home. Check her out, your skin will thank you!

I got the application from their site. How does she not know? Anyway, she called someone to help her & that lady simply took my tax return and told me that my monthly fee would be $50. Ummm, what?? She didn't look at the application at all. So, I asked about the discounts for swim lessons and etc. and another woman was called to the front to answer that question. She didn't know either & told me to call the Hampton location with my question. ?????? Ummm, I usually join the Y of Southampton Roads across the water & they never said/did things like the Peninsula did. I knew right then that I would be cancelling the membership ASAP. I did Zumba the same day & the instructor wasn't that friendly. There was 1 other person in the class with us (a total of 3 of us in the room), and they already knew each other. She didn't teach the steps. She just danced & I basically had to catch on. I love Zumba and all, but that experience was the worse. I just cancelled my membership today & will joining across the water. They just know how to handle business better and are friendlier. If I want to dance on the Peninsula, I will use my Nationwide membership. :) The Hampton location has more of the dance classes I'm looking for anyway. I still liked the cleanliness of this Y. They give locker keys & the locker room is huge. Masks are required and social distancing is suggested.

Stopped in here during vacation and got a day pass for $10. This is a no frills bodybuilder gym…read moremeant for serious athletes. Lots of average joes there too, but mostly a bunch of gym rat types. This is not a sauna and spa gym. This is a weights, chalk, squat rack and Dumbbells that go up much higher than I can lift (120+). I am a physique competitor so I enjoy the atmosphere, but it is definitely not for everyone and those who prefer a more relaxed comfortable gym will probably not feel quite at home though everyone is very friendly. Hope you like heavy metal hardcore music like korn, godsmack, disturbed, chevelle, alien ant farm, saliva because that is what will be playing during your workout. It wasn't too loud though so didn't mind. Even through I prefer EDM to workout. My friend Jimmy felt it was a pretty hardcore gym and while it wasn't exactly his cup of tea he had a good workout. They have a nice supplement cooler as well with protein, pre workouts, and other supplements. Prices are fair $3-4 for a protein drink, $4 for a pre workout, $2 power bars etc. It was pretty empty in there, it was a bit hot though -- fan cooled on a hot Virginia day is bound to make you sweat. They did have air conditioning though but it was definitely not on full blast. In summary: great no frills gym for serious lifters, and guys who want the "muscle" vibe. I did see on the wall an ad for Zumba and it looked like there was a group exercise studio in the back. So some fit moms may like it here too.
