I paid $60 for a one-hour full body massage, and unlike some other foot spas where they just go over your clothes, this was the full experience. The spa itself was very clean, the music was calming, and the woman who worked on me seemed very skilled and experienced. The massage was the perfect mix of relaxing and deep tissue. She even used hot stones and warm wet towels throughout, which made it feel like I got more than my money's worth. As I was leaving, she handed me a banana and a cold water, which was such a thoughtful touch. I really don't think I need to check out any other spots in the area now because this place was exactly what I was hoping for. I'll definitely be back. Thank you!

After seeing several positive reviews and receiving flyers for this new business, I decided to…read morevisit for a massage. Upon checking in, the lady at the front desk asked if I was comfortable with a male masseuse. Having had many massages before and typically preferring males due to the pressure they can provide, I agreed. Initially, I booked a 30-minute session, but as the half-hour passed, the masseuse suggested extending to an hour since my back was particularly sore after having my third baby. I agreed, hoping for more relief. Unfortunately, the second half of the session quickly took a negative turn. The massage became uncomfortably painful, and despite voicing my discomfort multiple times, the pressure on my spine remained excessive. Additionally, I chose to keep my lower undergarments on, as this was my first visit to this location. However, I felt uneasy when the male masseuse repeatedly adjusted my undergarments to the point where I was exposed. While massaging my legs, his hands moved into areas that felt entirely inappropriate. At one point, I was touched in a way that left me stunned and questioning if I was overthinking the situation. The session ended with more uncomfortable actions, such as him "stretching" my arms in a way that lifted the upper half of my body off the table. I was eager to leave as soon as it was over. The experience left me shaken, and I immediately called my husband to share what had happened. After reflecting over the weekend, I returned on Sunday to speak with someone in charge. The front desk staff member was kind but had limited English proficiency. She called a manager, and I explained what occurred. While the manager listened, her initial response included laughter, which made me feel as though the seriousness of the situation wasn't fully understood. She emphasized that this was the first complaint they had received and that the masseuse was new. Although they refunded my payment, the interaction left me and my husband uncertain whether appropriate steps would be taken to prevent this from happening to anyone else. This was a deeply unsettling experience, and I debated whether to share it publicly. Ultimately, I believe it is important for others--especially women--to know what I experienced before deciding to visit. I hope the business takes this feedback seriously and implements necessary safeguards to ensure the comfort and safety of all clients in the future.

Megan aptly analyzes my skin each time I visit and truly customizes my facial according to my dryness, acne, or pigmentation. She has a wide range of tools and serums and peels that always surprise me. For over a year, I've been using the Skin Scripts skin care line that Megan uses. She recommended a variety of products and explained how to use them. The skin care was a bit of an investment at first, but compared to premium brands at stores like Ulta, the line is actually very modest, and the products last a very long time. I also am happy with the quality. Since I've been seeing Megan for over a year, my adult acne has greatly improved and people comment that "I haven't aged a bit," which isn't true, but my skin is vibrant and healthy looking. Personality wise, Megan is friendly, welcoming, and calming. Her professionalism is second to none. Her business space is tucked away in an alley off of North Water Street by Scribbles Coffee, so if you've never been to her place, she might be a little tricky to find the first time. But Traveling Spa Girl is surely a gem in Kent worth seeking. In short, Megan is my go-to professional.
