Kare-N-Touch is a small day spa in a small town in NY. There were a few manicure tables, a few pedicure chairs, and I think two massage and one wax room, but I might be off on that. Restroom in the back was clean.
This is a review only of massage there. I had no nail or wax experience.
I was going to be in the area and planned ahead for a massage. I made an apt weeks in advance, which was easily moved a little earlier the day of. Very nice to have that flexibility.
I was planning on a deep tissue massage, but the therapist informed me when we were chatting she does not do those. Then asked "do you still want the massage". That was my second clue that she may not "want to be here". The first was when I walked in and she told me to fill out a release form, without introducing herself or anything like that.
The room was fine, the table comfortable. I asked for the music to be turned down, and she said "Ill put massage music on", but the volume remained oddly high. I think that was because the walls there are thin and we could hear the conversation outside happening. So much for the "quiet massage space" we usually expect in a massage.
The massage itself was fine, a full hour, but not great. She did do a pretty deep massage for someone who says they don't do that, but it was all very impersonal somehow. I felt like she did not want to be there at all, and it came through in so many of her actions.
I was planning to get another massage the next night, but decided against it. Not worth it.
