After the massage, I utilized the steam shower and while I'm normally not a steam person depending on my hair (I had braids today), it was a great way to round out the relaxation experience! I will definitely come back! I utilized the parking garage and the first two hours are free.

There aren't many ITL Houston spas--that aren't ridiculously priced--with an outdoor pool, hot tub,…read moreand sauna. Blossom Massage has all those, and has been around for a decade-plus with a great reputation. Dunno WHAT took me so long to check them out, but I recently bought a couples massage (which included all-day pool access) as a Christmas gift for my beau. We planned on getting there an hour before our massage to enjoy the hot tub (they requested that we call ahead to let them know and get the heat going). Our massage started promptly on time, and we both opted for deep tissue. I had Deanne, who specializes in Swedish and deep tissue massage (according to her bio on the website)... and let me say she has some STRONG hands. She found all my tension and pain-points and loosened me up. I was honestly a bit sore for days, but in a good way. A great reminder I need to take care of my body post workouts and after long days at the desk... My biggest feedback for them would be to have more info on their website about the pool access and what's offered (towels, robes) and how long we have pool access (it's all day, btw). Before booking, I had to call to get that info; it's be more convenient to add all of that info to their FAQ page. They also allow you to bring snackies, so I brought a fruit, cheese, and tinned fish spread. Also, wondering if they had hot tea service. That's always a nice touch post-massage. Looking forward to booking again!

Upon entering they offered us cold tea and explained what massage we would like to do and if we were ok with stepping during massage. Which was very appreciated! We had Anita and Mike and they were really good and very nice. They accommodated my partner since it was his first massage, however for me I was very familiar with deep tissue (lol!). I also added cupping as well. After our massage they gave us warm tea and paid via Zelle. They have a I believe a 3.25% charge with card. Will come back again! Their prices were very good. I haven't had much shoulder back pain since the massage and cupping and would like to try to come here maybe 1x/month.

From booking to communications after, the whole process was so easy. When we arrived, we were provided a space to securely leave our clothes and belongings, given comfy robes (which were more than large enough to accommodate us), and taken to our therapy room. The full body scrub and mud mask we received left us feeling cleaner than ever before. The therapists very excitedly showed us how much dead skin was coming off our bodies. While my wife's therapist was a trainee who wasn't as vigorous with her scrubbing as mine was, both were still very thorough and attentive to every inch of our skin. When they say your skin will glow after, they don't lie! Our skin looked and felt great after about a 90 minute session. The delicious baklava and tea after the session was a nice way to enjoy a moment more of calm together before we left. This facility is entirely service based, meaning there are no lounge spaces like hot tubs, pools, steam rooms, etc. All the same, this was a great experience to have before our special day.

Surprisingly this place doesn't open until 10am, but yesterday I got a 9Am cupping therapy session…read more Absolutely worst ever. The message therapist had no clue what she was doing, the cups kept falling off on the floor. She abandoned cupping altogether and started an extremely deep tissue upper back massage because I was "very tense." The cups didn't stay on my body more than 45 seconds, and not more than 2 at one time. This woman was completely ignorant of the technique- it would have been better if they just said they didn't have the availability. I am really have a hard time believing she was a certified massage therapist. Trying not to be mean I just wrapped up the massage and proceeded straight to the front. I don't see any certificates and I don't want to be rude to ask - but I'm never coming back so it doesn't matter. I had been here a few times and that made it may last. The problem is: I'm more sore TODAY than I was going in. And down I have a headache from the deep tissue mess she was going in my traps. I play tennis the morning and life must go on but she did more damage than good. Never, ever going back. There are so many places in Houston to get cupping therapy, this was a joke!

You enter the building and mention your appointment time to confirm. The front receptionist will give you a new patient information sheet if you are a first-timer at this location. Please wear a mask! I was greeted by the same person who did my massage and facial in the room. I believe this was to reduce the exposure to different clientele, masseuse, and aesthetician during COVID-19. Aromatherapy Facial (1 hour): No extraction is included this facial. I feel like the same 4 products were used 3-4X in this 1-hour facial. How do I know? One of the products was quite irritating to my face.... a very slow burn every time it was applied. I would not do this again. Ultimate/Petite Retreat Signature Massage (1.5 hours): It seems 1.5 hours was equally spread out with 3 sections - back, legs, then upper. Some parts were decent without much pressure. I've experienced better body massages, but I give credit that I was about to fall asleep at the end. It was halfway of this massage when the hot stones were placed. There are 2-3 different essential oils used for aromatherapy. Extra $30 for CBD incorporation. Per its website, "Hemp CBD targets pain, reduces inflammation, reduces soreness from a deep tissue massage, and promotes calmness." Would I come back? It is not a must come back massage parlor for me.
