It's my second time and I made it through vibing to Beyoncé Texas Hold'em! Hoping to see results committing to treatments to decrease inflammation, clearing toxins and metabolic waste. Forward to the CryoSauna where I sweat a tad bit..and with this as stated the infrared therapy should improve lymph circulation, removes toxins and unnecessary water .. Fingers crossed I can make this continued part of my better health journey!

It's so sad that customer service can ruin a business. I initially reviewed this business earlier…read morethis year from a Yelp elite event and thought it was outstanding. Now, not so much. I scheduled a service with Melanie and she was excellent. I scheduled another service for the very next day with her again. The owner booked my appointment. Payment was required upon booking. And I also prepaid for additional services for later in the month and prepaid for those too. I was unable to make the appointment time. Called the owner and asked to reschedule. He said I couldn't reschedule because of the policy. He nor anyone else ever told me about their "unable to reschedule less than 48 hours" policy. That makes no sense when the service was already paid for. No money is lost. I would've even paid a fee but he refused to reschedule me. I was never made aware of the policy - not in the documents that were sent over for signature (release of liability waivers) and the owner never told me. So how is a first time client supposed to know? It's not even posted in by the check in/out area. So I cancelled my future appointments and requested a refund. Which he credited back to my credit card. I will never go back. Horrible customer service. I

Jo Ann is awful. No social skills whatsoever. No smile when meeting me for the first time, no eye…read morecontact while I was explaining where my pain was, brusque, and abrasive. When I asked her to turn the bright overhead lights off and just have lamplight, she dimmed them and said "this is as dim as they go" but as soon as she left the room I realized it was in fact possible to turn them off like I asked, so I did. Who gives a massage in a bright ass room?! No background music. I laid down and she acted like she had never given a massage before. Immediately goes in aggressively and just kept right on going even when I said "ohh!!" This is NOT how massages are done. They always start slow and feel what's going on with your muscles and work their way into deep pressure. She was moving her hands so fast and she dove right in like she was scrubbing barnacles off a whale. Then she asked what my job was, and there are very specific reasons why I do not like talking about what I do, and I deflected VERY politely in the most non confrontational way possible and let her know I prefer to just relax during my treatment and I'm not very chatty. She barked "I NEED to know for your muscles. Because you are very tight. Are you lifting, pushing??" (No shit Sherlock, I know my muscles are tight, that's why I'm here.) I said "No, it's nothing physical like that." I guess she couldn't hear me and she loudly said "EXCUSE ME?" which was super abrasive. I told her I wanted to cancel and just leave because I was so uncomfortable. I had already told her that my last massage was two months ago, but she asked "Have you ever had a massage before??" Implying that it was me that didn't understand the process. I said "Oh yes. HUNDREDS." On her way out the door she flipped on the lights full blast, and that pettiness was not lost on me. The front desk lady came to the door to ask me what happened and as I was explaining, Jo Ann pops her head around the corner and starts defending herself! I had to tell her that I did not want to talk to her anymore and she reluctantly went down the hall. On top of this, the place is janky. It does NOT feel like any spa or massage studio I've ever been to. Cheap. They had space heaters everywhere and said the heat was broken and had been for a while. Said they were waiting to "get enough money to fix it." Uhhhh okayyy. What an absolute shitshow. Jo Ann is a rude bitch with zero understanding of standard practices within the field of massage therapy. They did refund my money which was the only good part.

MUST EXPERIENCE!! Staring out? Don't know what to do with…read moreyour crystals? This is the place for you! The knowledge these ladies have about crystals is beyond helpful! So many unique crystal shapes! Love cats? They have an abundance of crystals in cat form. The selection of crystals and quality it absolutely amazing!! I base my crystal purchases off the feel of the established. Cats and Crystals KC is so warm and welcoming. The calm and peace that I experienced in this store was life changing!! I will be back to purchase all my crystals from Cats and Crystals KC!! If they don't have something, just ask and they will make it happen! I was lucky enough to be able to hold a cat one of the vendors had. Best experience in a crystal store EVER!!

As an experienced yogi of 20 years, I love hard classes and intentionally seek out hot yoga -- and…read moreSweatTheory goes well beyond standard hot yoga. The studio is outfitted with advanced FAR infrared technology, built from untreated cedar, illuminated with chakra lights that fill the room with healing color, and finished with a pink Himalayan salt wall that elevates the entire experience. The instructors are wonderful across the board, and many remember your name even after just a few visits. Christian's classes in particular feel like a lovely, hypnotic yoga trance. They also offer hot mat Pilates, which is a great option when you want a break from yoga, and their Sweat + Sculpt classes are a real workout -- I don't even need to go to a regular gym on those days. I walk out looking like I showered in my yoga clothes, which is exactly what I'm going for. At the end of class, instructors bring around a cold washcloth scented with lavender or other essential oils -- it feels like heaven. If you're serious about hot yoga and want a real workout, this is the only place to go in Kansas City.

The infrared saunas are bookable in one-hour time slots, and you get your own private space with a changing area and a shower, a sauna with Bluetooth connectivity, and wellness shots to take at the beginning and end of your session. If you want to come with a friend, there are two-people saunas available as well. There are different yoga and pilate classes available. However, space is limited. My guess is that the room can only hold 10 people, which is nice if you prefer being in a small group. The facility is clean, and the staff is nice. I have done a sauna session and taken a yoga class. The sauna session was relaxing, and the yoga class was a good workout. My body felt great after each experience.

I've experienced bathhouse culture while…read moretraveling, especially in Japan, so I loved getting to experience something similar right here in KC. The thermal baths were incredible, along with the sauna and steam room. The entire space felt peaceful and refreshing, with thoughtful touches like warm tea, water, clean locker rooms, showers, and places to freshen up afterward. They also offer solo and couples massages if you want to make more of a day out of it. Such a great experience whether you're visiting Kansas City or just need a few hours to slow down! Phones are NOT allowed - I worked with KLA to help promote the business/marketing plan.

However I noticed that despite their ADA compliance, it's still a little tricky for people who might have mobility issues to navigate. It gets slippery esp with all the water dripping from people as they transition spaces. Overall I did enjoy my time and found 90 mins was the perfect amount of time. Long enough to feel luxurious but short enough my fingers didn't get pruney. The staff is really super helpful and thoughtful. I appreciate the auto 20% tip as it makes things more straightforward. Even when there was a lot of people in the small sanctuary spaces (10-20 clients), it still felt super peaceful bc everyone is respectful and quiet. People also come in waves, so at times it felt very full and at other times I had a pool all to myself. The price point makes complete sense given all they offer, but I'm a little too constrained financially to do this more than just a few times in my life.
