I've been getting massages for over 40 years, and I was really looking forward to a foot soak and…read moremassage at LaLumiere after reading the Yelp reviews. Unfortunately, the experience was terrible for the following reasons: 1. On the page under "Massage Enhancements - Epsom Foot Soak" the business promises an Epsom Foot Soak for new clients to enjoy while they fill out paperwork. I arrived 15m before my appointment and asked about the foot soak. The receptionist was not at the desk, so the question was posed to a massage therapist who showed up and said that the receptionist was preparing it. I was given paperwork to fill out which I did without the aforementioned foot soak. 2. When I was shown to the massage room, the foot bath was there, and I asked whether the 15m foot soak would be counted as part of my massage. The therapist, Anita, left the room for 10m (part of my massage time now) and came back to say that the foot soak would not be offered. Instead she said she would add on a paraffin treatment for my hands and feet. 3. The actual "deep tissue" massage was a lot of petting and short superficial strokes. She did identify and dig in deeper to sore glut muscles which helped relieve some tension, but it was not the deep tissue massage I had expected, and she did not address my primary concern (bursitis). 4. She ended the massage after 50 minutes (minus the time she left the room). 5. She never followed through with the promise of a paraffin treatment. Even though I was offered a discount, I left more stressed than I arrived. This is not the way to treat anyone. Never promise something you can't deliver.

Hands down one of the best massage experiences I've had, ever…read more From the sweet and helpful service when scheduling, to the day before reminder calls, to the warm welcome when you arrive, you enter a place where you can leave whatever is bothering you behind. I start relaxing by perusing and sampling the nice array of aromatherapy oils you have to choose from. (Lavender sandlewood is a favorite.) I turn down the wine service they offer, in favor of water or tea. I've seen Max now a few times, and he's great. Gets down to business, not too light, not too deep, comfortable working in quiet, responsive to requests and has a great energy to create and hold a space where you can just relax and let him do all the work. Whether I just need to relax and recenter, or if I'm coming in with certain complaints, I always leave in a much better state than I arrived, and the benefits don't usually fully roll around until the next day. And two words: HOT STONES. Yes, please!! Part of the regular service (not an add-on like at some places). The blankets on the tables are so soft and heavy, the bedding is in nice shape (so many places keep them until the are pilly, scratchy messes) and the environment is super serene and relaxing. This is a happy place!

Life-Changing Care at Phiz Spa…read more If you know me, you know my fasting story. Consistent, clean intermittent fasting completely changed my life. My body healed in ways I didn't expect--aches disappeared, migraines stopped, my energy soared. It truly felt like I had discovered the reset button for my health. But then... perimenopause arrived. Along with it came consistent hip pain and those life disrupting hot flashes. Both of these perimenopause symptoms were disruptive and intensely frustrating. That's when I started working with the team at Phiz Spa and added peptide therapy to what I was already doing with fasting. And here's the wild part... I woke up recently and realized something: my hips haven't hurt in weeks. Weeks! I didn't even notice when the pain quietly disappeared. On top of that, my hot flashes have dramatically calmed down. Where before the hot flashes were aggregating and fully disrupted my train of thought or sleep, they are barely a blip on my radar now! For me, fasting will always be the foundation of my health--it's the game-changer that transformed my body. But adding peptides through Phiz Spa has been an incredible complement. It feels like my body finally has the support it needs during this perimenopause season. Knowing these peptides support collagen, muscle repair, and recovery makes the changes make sense. What I appreciate most is that the team here truly listens. Erin helped me find solutions that support my body--not just quick fixes. If you're navigating midlife changes, stubborn aches, or just want to feel like yourself again, I can't recommend Phiz Spa enough. **Fasting changed my life. Phiz Spa helped me take it to the next level.

Hands down the best up-do creationist I've ever seen. She's been at the Allure Salon and Day Spa now for quite a while, and I felt like writing a review since I see that no one else has. The Salon is always clean and smells great; no overpowering chemical smells to burn your nose hairs. Staff are always available to help you set up an appointment over the phone or as a walk in. Though I would warn you that certain stylists are very popular and if you are attempting a walk in for one of them, it may not be the best idea. I would suggest an appointment personally, just in case they are slammed. Conversations around the shop are always funny; the girls have a snarky sense of humor that goes well with mine. The overall atmosphere is upbeat and positive. My daughter's hair has been cut as a walk in basis when I've set up my own appointments, and she's been seen by several of the stylists. There has been not a single bad cut on her head. Each and every stylist is a true artist and very good at what they do. When I have enough time, I set up an appointment with the resident Massage Therapist. Angeleet Betts is the most skilled masseuse I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. If I could, I would see her weekly. She has perfected the art of firm enough to actually get the knots out without hurting even a bit. I highly recommend Allure to anyone and everyone. From kids to adults, to those seeking massages to those needing a wax.

Somehow she inferred that I wanted yellow highlights (not the case at all)! It wouldn't have been that bad except the highlights turned out uneven and cheap looking. Also my bangs were blunt cut, she didn't blend them into the surrounding hair. My sister also got highlights and hers turned out even worse than mine! She was nice enough to say that we could come back and get it fixed for free. But honestly I think we could do a better job with a box color. Would rather go to someone who can get it right the first time.

The layers were not at all tapered layers but just chunks cut straight across all over so bluntly! The bangs were cut straight across my forehead like a 3 year old would do with a pair of scissors. It was awful! Like I said I am not too picky with my hair and I wear it long so it's not a tough style to do. I can't believe that the owner of this salon keeps her there! Luckily hair grows back but I definitely wouldn't recommend her. She didn't make me feel very welcomed warm or relaxed while I was there either as been my experiences with stylists in the past. She just seemed very cold and like she didn't want to be there. Zero customer service skills. Keep your money and buy a pair of scissors and a box of hair color!
