She is very accommodating, works within her professional capacity, always refers you to Dr. When things come up, she encourages you to communicate constantly about your needs and comfort level and really serves you to her best capability. If you want honest quality service come to her. For a small framed woman, girl has some firm skilled hands! You always sense that she goes above and beyond for you every time!

I found this place searching through Groupon. They've been open since last summer and also have a…read morelocation in The Woodlands. They're also in Colorado. I wanted a massage badly, like a real one and not some foot spa. I purchased a 90 min massage with aromatherapy. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. The receptionist new my name as soon as I walked in. Very attentive. I didn't have to wait long for my massage therapist. My massage therapist, Anita, was knowledgeable and listened to my concerns. I have a problem with my sinuses acting up when I'm prone (on my stomach for those non medical. Lol) for a while on the table. She offered to do my massage in side lying next time. I've never had a massage therapist suggest that or even notice that it happens to some people. At the end of the massage, she gave me a cup of cold water and a shower bomb for respiratory and sinus. She also massaged the triangular area of the sacrum that often causes lower back pain, which other places ignore. I'm not sure if it's because this is a sports recovery place, but wow. The pressure she used was excellent. I'm more light to medium. If it was too firm, she told me to let her know cause a massage should be enjoyable and not painful. I also liked the fact that she didn't talk much unless I had something to say. I could close my eyes and enjoy the quiet moment, aside from the usual massage music. The table has a warmer, so you don't get cold. They have great monthly membership pricing and also honor the Groupon price and massage time if you book another appointment. Unused monthly massages roll over, and you can cancel at any time. You can also choose what date you want to be billed monthly. I left with a 60 min membership for $59/month!

I want to start off by saying the services here are good and the massage therapists were great. I…read morecalled last minute yesterday asking for a "foot massage" for me and my friend. I was hoping for reflexology but it wasn't on the menu. I saw the reviews and was excited. I am familiar with Thai massage but my friend and I just wanted foot massages. I had a really hard gig over the weekend where I was on my feet in heels for many hours, and the nerves in my feet needed extra attention. They took us very last minute so I'm thankful for that. We asked for a room together so we could be right next to each other. My massage therapist was GREAT but did not get to the soles of my feet! That was the part of my body that needed the most attention. I paid full price for an hour and a full body massage. If I would've known I was paying full price, I would've just opted for two full body massages. My friend was completely satisfied with her massage. She didn't know what to expect and was happy. But even today I'm a little disappointed because my feet are still slightly achy from the weekend :( I wished they had honored my request for a strictly foot massage. They gave us a great cranium massage, arms, back, calves, shins but my feet were untouched and I paid for full body while we were fully clothed and we didn't get the famous "walk on your back" which is what Thai healing massages usually include.

Our therapist, Bella was absolutely fantastic professional, kind, and very skilled. She paid close attention to our problem areas without us even having to explain much, and her technique and pressure were perfect the entire time. You can tell she really knows her craft and genuinely cares about her clients. By the end of the session, I felt completely relaxed and my body felt so much better. The facility is super clean, the atmosphere is peaceful, and the rooms look beautiful everything about it feels calming and high quality. If you're looking for a place where you'll be taken care of and leave feeling like a new person, this is it. We will definitely be coming back soon!

I'm pregnant, and not everyone knows what they are doing and my husband and mother are tight, so I knew this would be the perfect place to check out! And they did not disappoint! My prenatal massage was perfect! And my husband and mom loved their massages too! They also have an amazing special right now where the 90 min massage for new members is only $110 vs the normal $125. The restrooms were clean. It smells amazing when you walk in and they offer complementary snacks, coffee and water on your way out. I highly recommend! We will most certainly be back!

We usually have to drive all the way across town to Chinatown to get a good foot massage but now we won't have to make that trek. Walking into the spa we were pleasantly greeted with a sweet essential oil coming out of a vapor and by Elaine (who I think is the owner). She is so sweet and took the time to explain the different services they offer. She then led us to the backroom where there are four seats on each side and flat screens above each area. What I like about this place is that they have a door separating the massage room from the reception area so you aren't disturbed by people coming in. The therapists are considerate of their clients - they speak in barely audible voices to one another if necessary. They also offer sleeping masks to completely eliminate any light and a set of headphones to enjoy your own soundscape. My therapist, James, is really good! I don't like firm massages and when I asked him to apply medium pressure, he actually listened and would ask from time to time if the pressure was okay, unlike other therapists. We will be back for sure!

From start to finish, everything felt thoughtful and relaxing -- they even had strawberries and champagne waiting for us, which made the day feel extra special.

They both took their time, were friendly, and made us feel genuinely cared for. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming, and the price was honestly a steal for the quality of service we received. We already plan to make this a regular treat every few months. Highly recommend -- we can't wait to go back and hoping we get kay! I've heard good things.
