Thrive Wellness is a welcomed addition to Rochester! On my visit, I tried out the Infrared sauna…read moreand cold plunge combo (Contrast Therapy). The sauna was roomy and clean, with no indication of staining or splintering in the wood so it shows the team maintains their equipment well. Also, the cold plunge water was absolutely clean by which you can see into the bottom, even though the water is consistently circulating! In the sauna, you can change the light settings (which each color has a different benefit), temperature, timers, and even a Bluetooth connection to play your favorite tracks while relaxing! You might have to be careful on how loud you have the music in the sound-deadening sauna as the ceilings are open and noise can carry though the area. At the gym in my town, I'd need to leave the sauna, walk into a separate cold plunge room, shower, THEN enter - that's a lot of heat lost in the process there. With that being said, I REALLY love the organization and layout of the contrast room; you have towels and a robe ready for you, and the steps for the cold plunge is right in front of the food of my sauna. Once I finished my 30 mins in the heat, I walked directly out and into the 47F pool to get the effective contrast therapy and "tingle." Overall, I'll definitely be back for another session. Some things that I wish to see in the future would be offering disposable/rubber slippers, an entrance shoe cubby, as well as hopefully offering lotions and recovery drinks like tea after my appointment. Despite absolutely hating the cold, I felt absolutely refreshed and alive after that shock to the system at Thrive!

I am a recent concert to infrared saunas and did a quick search and found this place close by. Right by Bushnell's Basin in Pittsford. Don't let the sterile exterior of the building deter you. You might be in a random office building, but once you enter the space, it's totally relaxing and inviting. A chill spa environment that's a little bit quirky and fun. Evelyn, the owner and massage therapist is incredibly welcoming. I have had really great luck in multiple cities with independent self-owned providers of personal services with aestheticians, beauticians and the like. Nurturing Hands is no different. The infrared sauna set up is so lovely, down to the last detail: an assortment of books, water, warm towels and a wide selection of robes! There is also an option to sauna with friends, though I'm more of a solo sauna-er. After my 30 minutes in the sauna relaxing and sweating out some toxins, Evelyn gave me a wonderful and relaxing massage. The 75 minutes flew by...next time I'm booking for at least 90 minutes. I am definitely coming back and recommend everyone to check this place out if they are looking for a relaxed, low key environment for a great massage.

I had a very good experience at our late Saturday evening visit. A great massage but It's…read moreunfortunate it wasn't great service overall for the steep price. We likely were their last massage of the day. We arrived early and mentioned it was our first time. The lady from the front showed us to the sunroom and locker room and personally showed me to my locker. She did not mention there is a sauna available without a special reservation. I unfortunately didn't see anyone around after our service to ask. I asked afterwards when we paid . This was quite disappointing, considering there's no hot tub for relaxing before a massage other than sitting in the sunroom on the lovely warm salt lamp for your feet. The massage was great. Be sure to ask for the scalp massage. The menu said online that with the 80 minute massage it was included, but I didn't receive one. I did ask for targeted service (neck etc) so perhaps that replaced the time. Enjoy post service bubbly in your robe in the sunroom! TLDR: ask for sauna location if you're unfamiliar. Consider booking before 5pm for best service.

She escorted me to the changing area, provided me with a robe ( so lucious you could melt into) & comfy slippers, then directed me towards the sunroof where I waited for my esthetician Amy. When I got to the treatment room, it was meticulous and fresh, what a 5-star experience should feel like. Amy is experienced. An absolute gem. As a wellness enthusiast, I have had massages from my local spa to the talents at the Ritz-Carlton spa's, and all over. I would rank Amy at the top! Willowbrook Spa is located on the property of The Lake House Resort in Canandaigua, NY. I will certainly schedule another appointment when I visit the property again! Thank you for making my experience memorable!

I don't live in Rochester, so I don't have a regular place to work out when I come to town (a few…read moretimes a year). My wife and I were looking around on ClassPass and The Wellness Lab came up. At first we just thought it was a gym where we could go get a workout in, but it's a lot more. Yes, there's a gym with all the dumbbells and kettlebells you want, a couple of benches, a couple of barbells, resistance bands, a conventional sauna, a couple of machines, and room to work (everything I need to workout except maybe a pull-up bar and a place to do dips). However, on the other side of the front desk (easy check-in, some merch, and a few products like LMNT), it's like a well-appointed, DIY spa. They have several different private rooms, all equipped with infrared saunas, and some with matching cold plunge tubs for contrast therapy. I love it. Everything is clean and beautiful and well laid out. We were pleasantly surprised with how comfortable and relaxing it all was, with great little touches (great lighting, a picture of penguins enjoying a cold plunge above the tub). Vinny was personable, and happy to show us how to work the saunas (very intuitive). It's super easy to figure it all out, and my wife and I had a great time in the room with the larger sauna that we could both fit in. Even though my body was screaming at me to get out of the cold plunge (had to be in the 40s) immediately, I stayed for three minutes each time and felt amazing afterward. It's also worth mentioning that the music here is GREAT. A playlist that I could've put together myself. We'll be coming back. Maybe tomorrow.

I love the privacy between the different spaces, and you can read and watch a show while you relax.

You're able to book a day pass via classpass as well, so that should be interesting. Looking forward to coming back and feeling lucky a recovery spot is so close to me.

Here's hoping our lingering colds are flurried away after our afternoon here. Service was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely go back if it was closer to where I live.

We even took our 5.5 month old into the room. We all went in stuffed up and left not. We never got stuffed up again after that. I believe it definitely helped. My husband and I did follow up with a 30 minute sauna which was nice and relaxing. They also give you a essential oil scented wash cloth to bring In with you if you want. Inside looks nice and cozy. Definitely a place to come and relax. We ended up buying a pack of sauna passes. Staff is very welcoming and friendly. Would definitely recommend this location for anyone. Especially if you are fighting a cold or sickness.

I've been a customer at Lumos since they opened the first spot at the armory on Culver. I had…read morerecently returned from living in Europe and was looking for a way to fulfill my sauna-ing needs. As they have grown in popularity, and with the newer building at the armory always being busy, I decided to try out the Greece location. Both are equidistant from my home, and this location always has openings. I love it here, and I'm not ashamed to say it. I have a 4 - 45-minute session/month plan and I love it. I really need to use it more because I get so caught up in my busy life that I forget I need to make this time for myself. BUT, thankfully, the plan I have allows me to hold on/roll over my old sessions that I haven't used, so when I have spring break or february break, I can make multiple trips to the sauna per week. Honestly, I would like to have my own sauna in my house. I could probably save money long term. However, there is just something about going to the sauna studio, getting out of your house, and stepping into your own little suite for a little bit of self care. The cold towels (refreshing) and the chromotherapy (sets a mood and helps specific ailments) plus the red-light tower (powerful and restorative), make it worth going out to sauna. I've never done contrast therapy here, but I know it's amazing. When ever I go to a spa village the ability to cold plunge is rejuvenating, but for my regular weekly needs I just need a good sauna. A good sauna, some relaxing music, a good book or podcast - take your pick and relax and restore! Love you Lumos!

She greeted me and walked me thru the whole process and how to use the sauna. She was professional and very detailed. She walked me to my private suite. They provide towels, cooling towel, face wipes, Kleenex, hand sanitizer. They are very clean and sanitized. Each sauna has red light towers in them which are optional but I wanted all the benefits. Glasses are provided also. Each session last 30 mins. There is a phone hook up to play music through the sauna speakers and I really enjoyed my spa music. You are given a menu to select the sauna light to the color you want as each color has different benefits. You can burn up to 600 calories in one session. I can't wait to go back and share my experience with friends. Tips: Bring comfortable loose clothing Bring water bottle because it's HOT Must take shoes off before entering Enjoy relax

I never felt rushed throughout my massage, only cared for and valued. Mei's Spa and Retreat is a peaceful escape, before, during, and after your appointment. I love that Mei's considers the little things, like soft, comfortable robes and an array of beauty products while in the changing area. I'm looking forward to another massage the next time I'm in town.
