SOLID START, SOLID FINISH…read more The Asians know a lot about massage: Thailand, China, Japan and Indonesia enjoy a wealth of local knowledge on body mechanics, energy systems, and therapy. It's no great surprise then that most of my massages are from these establishments BANGKOK HEALTHY SPA does not disappoint. The receptionist immediately recognized my name and confirmed my appointment time. Another receptionist apologised profusely for the minor delay in the start of my treatment. And, without looking at the reservations book, the receptionist not only knew that I wished a very strong massage but also asked if that was the service I desired or wished to change my mind. Good, solid start. I was a bit wary of the slightly worn slippers provided and chose to keep my socks on and ignore it. There was no tea or beverage station (which is always a thoughtful touch). Anyway, how was the treatment? My therapist was a "savage". She instinctively manipulated problem areas before I could even offer guidance on areas to tackle. The therapist clearly had a gift. The massage was an expertly delivered combination of nail-biting "torture" and soothing massage with stretches. That's good. I left feeling like a million dollars. Even although the spa had closed, no-one rushed me or seemed remotely perturbed that I had taken a little time to rouse from my blissed out state. Admittedly, I was skeptical. I am always circumspect with new facilities. BHS is the real deal and is (mostly) excellent at what they do VERDICT: TWO THUMBS UP! WE WILL BE BADK

There were 3 ladies sitting around waiting for clients. They were not inviting. I was their only client. The boss lady guided me into a small room and charged me $45 euro when their sign read $40 euro for an hour. I confronted her and she said that's for the boss. She told me to remove my clothing. I didn't because it was freezing cold in the middle of December. The table was only lined with one thin towel, no heat lamp nor bed warmer, not even a towel to cover me with. The biggest lady of the 3 came in and showed annoyance when I requested more pressure, she told me "that's going to cost more". She left the room and told another thinner lady in mini skirt to work on me. Quality was poor. I just sucked it up since I was tight from all the walking from my travels. This second lady left the room and checked what time my massage was over. Super unprofessional. She returned and said 20 more minutes. She stopped when my one hour wasn't up. Take your chance with this lousy establishment. I should have just walked out because of all these red flags.

If you're visiting Barcelona and looking for the ultimate way to relax after walking your legs off…read moreall over the city, AIRE Ancient Baths is absolutely worth every euro. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere completely transports you. The lighting, the architecture, the candles, the pools... it's an experience from start to finish. And listen, pay for the add ons. They are 100% worth it. I added the glass of wine and premium chocolates, and both were delicious. They also have unlimited hot tea and water throughout the experience, which made everything feel even more luxurious and relaxing. My absolute favorite part was the isolated jacuzzi chambers. After spending a week walking all over Spain, sitting in those hot pools felt like heaven. And don't even get me started on the salt pool. I could have floated in there for hours. Honestly, I almost did chile lol. Everything about this place feels intentional and calming. Next time I visit, I'm definitely adding one of the hot stone massages because if the baths alone were this incredible, I already know the massages are next level too. This place was everything. Easily one of the most relaxing experiences I had in Barcelona or ever. Perfect for this tired teacher on spring break.

We all opted for the orange massage which included a relaxing facial. The baths in the basement area were clean, and despite their rules banning affection, we still saw people making out and getting cozy in one of the pools. The 90 minute massage and facial service was a treat for less than €200, and they offer L'Occitane hair and body products in the shower. A nice added touch are their packaged, unused hairbrushes and basic toiletries to use after your service. Though we paid for a 90 minute visit, the massage and facial felt a bit shy of 1 hour. Nevertheless, we all had a relaxing time and were happy to be able to pamper ourselves while on vacation.

Bea gave me one of the top 3 best massages of my life. I booked the aromatic silom massage (only 65 Euro for an hour), and it was exactly what I needed. Bea took note of the areas in my back and legs that needed the most attention, and made sure to spend more time on them. She checked in with me to make sure the pressure was okay or asked if I needed more. My sore muscles felt so much better during and after. After the massage, Bea set up a sitting area with a pot of delicious tea for me. I took my time and relaxed there, and finished the whole teapot. This was way better than any of the massages I've had during my travels. I wish I could go back every month! Thank you, Bea!
