While it is not cheap, it's worth it. You get ushered back to the bathroom to change. You have your own locker that you can put all your stuff in and lock, so very secure. Very nice bathrobe and sandals to put on and then you go into a waiting room. Very calm and serene. A couple of different flavored waters to choose from and snacks if you're so inclined. Waited in there about 10 mins (you can bring your phone but come on people - you're here to relax. Put the flipping thing in the locker. You can disconnect for an hour). My masseuse came and collected me and ushered me to a nice quiet room. She listened to what I wanted her to do and left me to get under the sheets. The room was nice and warm and I was never cold. The massage was WONDERFUL. I needed a deep tissue and she delivered. Within 2 days my shoulder and neck were worlds better. After the massage they take you back to the bathroom. I super appreciate that there is a shower. The only downside of massage is having that oil all over you and getting dressed again. Loved the shower - very clean and great towels. Highly recommend and will return!

It was the 100% opposite! I had no problem booking myself online. I saw Josh for scalp massage treatment and Courtney for a natural facial. It was outstanding!! I booked myself a 30min break in between so i wasn't rushed. I showered and waited in the special waiting room and enjoyed tea. I loved the scalp one with a brushing my hair and scented oil smelled so good. Josh was very nice and talked about the process, about 30minutes long. Courtney explained the facial products. She worked on my neck and upper chest area too. She was so nice. The space is so clean, pretty and organized. I loved looking at all the many options of items to buy around the front desk. I have been to many spas and they all seemed to be the same after a treatment they would price out all the items to ask me to buy them. Not here there was no list or pressure to do anything. I booked another facial with Courtney. I can't wait to go back!

I went to Ultimate Escape Day Spa for the first time since I had a couple of gift certificates, and…read moresince they offer Botox, I decided to give it a try. I only wanted a simple lip flip and a little Botox for the "11" lines between my brows. Unfortunately, I was extremely disappointed with my experience. Inness bruised my lip badly, which has never happened to me with a lip flip before. Looking back, I honestly should have walked out when I noticed she wasn't wearing gloves while doing the injections. That alone made me uncomfortable. Needless to say, this was a first and last experience for me and I will never refer anyone there. Never again.

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.

Klā Sanctuary is such a unique addition to Kansas City! 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.

I've been to Reflexology Plus three times now, spending over an hour plus there each visit, and…read moreeach experience has been a little different. My first visit wasn't my favorite. The therapist seemed to rush through the massage and didn't spend much time on the trouble areas I noted in my booking. To be fair, I did come in later in the day. The massage itself was just okay, but the glow ritual was really enjoyable. My second visit was definitely better. The therapist really worked out the tension in my back -- it hurt in the best way possible. While he didn't stay fully consistent with my problem areas or work much on the front side, the foot massage and stretching were both very good. My third visit, however, was amazing. Leo did everything right. He followed my booking requests perfectly and is honestly the reason I'm giving this place 5 stars. My only regret is splitting his tip between cash and card because he absolutely deserved it. Overall, this place has a very welcoming atmosphere. I love the setup and how genuine it feels compared to some of the more "manufactured" spa experiences I've had around the city. At this point, Reflexology Plus has become my go-to spot.
