    Sunday was International Women's Day and Rafa Sauna Lounge was having a women's event. This was a perfect opportunity to check it out. It was also a plus that there were little added bonuses for the day. Pink drink, mouse cake and a face mask. Location was interesting, not so luxe. But I love the serenity of the interior. Walking in was very calm and spa-like with simplicity decor and essential oils in the air. I thought it would be bigger but the intimate size was good for the day. Very luxe bathroom and locker area with spa-like products for customers to use. My mom was my guest because she loves saunas and detoxing, like me. We planned our time for each sauna because your allotted 2hrs for your entire spa experience. We were given very cushy slippers, a robe, a towel, and a wrist band to use on their monitor for additional menu items. (ie: hot tea, pressed juice, or smoothies.) I loved all the saunas: dry sauna, vapor sauna, steam and artic chamber. The Still Room was also awesome. Just enough quiet and darkness, that I almost fell asleep completely. Staff was super helpful and patient. Very sweet young ladies and gentleman who were able to answer all our questions. They promptly served us our pink drink and mouse cake when we were ready to order. Our time there was great. I'm not sure how I feel about it being co-ed because I felt more relaxed with other women around. I'm hoping owners consider more days out of the year just for women

    I came here for a birthday party, and let me just say it was a great time! They have a list of recommended steps to follow for all of the wellness areas. I followed it for the most part... lol, once I actually noticed it. I started off in the wellness spa area (I believe that's what it's called) next to the cold plunge. I went into the sauna, the steam room, and the Arctic room, and we also purchased green tea. Everything was amazing, and the experience was very relaxing. I can't wait to come back!

    Visited Rafa Sauna Lounge on their very first day of opening with a friend and wanted to share an honest, fair review. Aesthetically, the space is very beautiful. The attention to detail in the design is clear and thoughtfully done. Visually, it absolutely delivers. That said, the overall experience felt less luxurious than expected. Upon arrival, the check-in area was quite crowded and took about 10 minutes. I came with a friend, and there was some confusion during check-in. I was accidentally asked to fill out and sign her safety waiver. Even after pointing this out, no corrections were made, which felt concerning. We were given robes, sandals, and electronic wristbands, but there wasn't much guidance on what to do next. The groups ahead of us also didn't receive much instruction. When I asked if there was a guide, pamphlet, or brief explanation of what to expect, I was told they were still working out the details and that we should just explore. A short tour or simple brochure would have helped, especially for first-time guests. The women's locker room had plenty of lockers, which I appreciated, and I liked that the keys were worn on your wrist. However, the dressing area itself was quite small for the number of people in our time block. The decor was minimal but still very nice. There were a few showers and two restroom stalls. Once changed, we entered the spa area. There is a cold shower and two small soaking tubs, one herbal and one Arctic. These tubs were very small, above ground, and didn't seem to have much circulation. The herbal tub had a foamy film on top, which felt unsettling. There are also no stairs or handrails to help with entry or exit, so we decided not to use them. We explored the two sauna rooms. The larger sauna was spacious and included a chess table, which was a cool and unique touch. The smaller sauna had a button for a "herbal experience," but when pressed, it seemed to only release steam with no noticeable aroma. After about 30 minutes, the main area between the tubs and saunas became very wet, and we even saw a staff member slip and almost fall. While the floor is textured, there were no mats, which could become a safety issue. We took a break and sat in the lounge area where complimentary citrus water was available. A team member kindly offered us a free fruit smoothie, which we appreciated. About 20 minutes later, she brought them out. They were just okay, but it was still a nice gesture, especially on opening day. While sitting in the lounge, we noticed electrical outlets placed at the bottom of the seating blocks where your legs rest. Considering guests are often wet, this felt potentially unsafe. There is also a stillness room with large lounging beds in very dim lighting. The room itself was relaxing, but we could still hear noise from other areas of the spa. Some added soundproofing would really elevate that experience. There is also a Japanese tea room with floor seating, which was a very cool concept. However, we later discovered through the wristband screen that the tea service and other drink options are an additional fee and not included with the spa package. That is something to be aware of before your visit. After about an hour into our two-hour session, we decided to head back to the women's locker room. By that time, the second wave of guests had arrived and the locker room was very full, so we had to wait a bit to access the changing area. It was only at this point, while changing and speaking with other guests, that we learned the showers were not working properly. The water was cold with very low pressure, making rinsing off difficult. This information was not shared with us earlier. Overall, the facility is beautiful, but for me, some of the luxury spa details were a miss. I did share my experience and concerns with the staff upon leaving, though they did not seem very receptive in the moment. I understand this was their first day, and I truly hope they take guest feedback into account as they continue to refine the experience. I'd love to see this local business grow, improve, and succeed.

    I visited Rafa on their opening day, while the facility is beautiful I'm not sure I would go back. I wasn't a big fan of their herbal soak bath and cold plunge, they are small and it didn't seem sanitary. The water did not look clean and other guests mentioned regretting getting in. I did enjoy one of the saunas however the sauna alone wasn't enough for me to see the value. Again, this space is beautiful and they spared no expense on the overall aesthetic it just wasn't for me.

The receptionist was kind and had me fill out a massage intake form so it would be personalized to me. I chose to get a deep tissue thermal massage. They have women's and men's locker rooms to change into a robe and sandals. One thing that I didn't love was how small the women's locker room was. When there are three or more people in there changing, it's a little bit too close if you don't know the other people there. After changing, they have a relaxation room where you can calm down and wait for your masseuse. I was a little bit uncomfortable waiting, as when I entered the room, there was a man who was fully dressed and on his phone while sitting there. As a woman in nothing but a robe, it made me uncomfortable that he was on his phone just sitting there. I'm sure he meant no harm, but I would have liked it more if phones weren't allowed. It would be more relaxing. The massage itself was wonderful. I had Mira, and she did a great job releasing some of my tension in my shoulders and neck. She did some nice stretches during it too. I especially enjoyed the heated packs she put on my back and neck throughout. After finishing the massage, you are offered water, champagne, or a mimosa, and can go back to relax in the relaxation room. Overall, I really enjoyed my massage and think it will help my body feel better. Just wish the relaxation room was phone free for peace of mind.

Called no answer. I've been standing outside the facility for over 15 minutes. Fly infested entrance that smells like cat liter. What a waste of time. I would rank 0 stars or neg stars if they are available. You may want to think twice before getting your massage at this place. I received phone call back four and half hours later, no apologies just yes we had you down for an appointment earlier today but we changed it to later this afternoon. Call us back to confirm. I never received any prior phone messages changing the time. Left disgusted too filthy.

    REMEMBER what your grade teacher said, "Don't judge a book (or holistic center) by its cover!"…read more Please do not see or compare this center to a "spa spa" or the day spa you visited at a high-end hotel. I even read the Yelp reviews to make sure this place is legit. "The Cabin Holistic Healing Center" is true to its business name. The center provides its clients access to a sauna/spa tub (for a $10 surcharge), yoga classes, other holistic items to help calm the spirit while healing (or at least feel great) the body through massage. Yes the small facility is cabin-like, yes the front desk is cluttered with paperwork, yes there are domestic animals that appear sometimes within the cabin but all that DID NOT take away from the holistic experience I had when I used my groupon for a 1 hour deep tissue massage with the male massage therapist. Really one of the best deep tissue massages I had...the therapist read my concerns I wrote down on the client history form and used various pressure as well as stretching techniques to get deeper into my muscle to rub out the knots. Used a heating pad and hot towels to relax my muscles throughout the massage. He also asked if it was fine if he talked during the massage and was very professional about proper drapping of my body. I met with owner Louisa before and after my massage. She is an educated person who is honest and real. She never tried to push her services or sell yoga classes or products. Louisa even asked me if I have a problem with animals visiting the cabin and I told her not at all. On the side, she finds forever homes for stray animals. A woman with a gigantic heart. I'll be back for another deep tissue massage as I felt great after I left. Next time I'll try a female massuse...I heard there was a chiropractor who does acupressure for clients but I don't think I need this service yet. (Also I forgot to state that the one thing that bothered me was I can't control the hustle and noise of the busy Greenback Lane, but oh well.)

I feel bad because I started out with one of those (silent service please) cards on the stool ((sorry Angella)) but as the service got started, she gave me tidbits of information on what she was doing and why. She also gave me a few pointers on what i can do at home or on my own time and with that, we just started talking and she walked me through alot of the process which i loved. She was incredibly knowledgeable, strategic, and every movement had a purpose. She definitely kicked my butt (which for 8 days out or surgery, it was to be expected) but it wasn't painful at all. She was able to get all the fluids moving in my body and it was very relieving. When the service was done and I stood up to change back into my clothes, I could notice a huge difference with a reduction of swelling. Even as I'm sitting at home, I expected to feel kind of crappy after because of all the toxins being pushed out but I feel great. I can not say enough good things about Angella. I highly highly recommend for a lymph massage if you're looking for someone! I'll definitely be back!
