I would imagine going to a massage during this experience would be the way to do it with maximum enjoyment though! Next time!

My friends and I did an hour relaxation and guided meditation in the Salt Cave as a group and…read morereally enjoyed it. It's a unique experience and our guide was super sweet and easygoing. She easily answered questions after and before about what to expect and offered us tips on how best to relax and enjoy our experience. You lock up your goodies in a large dresser while inside and are encouraged not to bring electronics in (the salt can be corrosive to batteries) and must wear socks. The spa and gift shop area is really nice and we saw a ton of beautiful salt lamps inside the gift shop after our hour. I loved the themed items for sale and their body oils and salt scrubs are phenomenal. The salt cave itself is pretty impressive and a unique experience I hadn't ever tried before. I believe she said there were 30 tons of rock salt inside and it was even hanging from the ceiling! It's based upon an original such cave in Poland. Loved it. Highly recommend you come and try this if you are open to new experiences and have never done it. The team here are wonderful and it's in beautiful neighborhood and part of town we enjoyed walking around afterwards. They have an attached parking lot and plenty of nearby parking.

I am giving 4.5 stars, as we were driving from ATL to Ashville and moving ahead with the road trip…read morefrom Ashville. This place was such a blessing. If you choose the right timings for the massage it does do justice. We were very tired from the road trip and wanted to have a nice massage. What we thought was it would be lying down and then putting our feet in the water. The massage was on the chair, which was equally good. We had Nico as our massause. She was the best, so do book her if you can. IT is a bit pricey, but, if you really need one like we did, it is ok. The service was excellent. The location is apt. We chose 2 different kinds of soaks. I took the celebration and my husband took the Deep. Both were good and he was extremely relaxed, but like i said if it was a bit different the effects would have been better and worth the cost, regardless, it was a very relaxing experience and Nico took alot of care of us throughout the 45 mins soak and 20 mins each of the massage. The warm neck pillows was a plus!

I do my best at 67 to maintain an athletic physique; however, the aging process does take its toll. I was so pleased with how my body responded during and after my massages that I also bought a package for my husband. He was just as impressed! The owner, Analyn, is extremely friendly and very talented! She intuitively knew the right amount of pressure and the specific techniques needed to boost circulation, lengthen tissue fibers, and reduce joint stiffness. Many of her techniques promote myofascial release, and I immediately experienced increased range of motion in all major joints. Even in my hands! I highly recommend Mandolin Rain Massage and look forward to her working her magic on my aging body. 5 Stars across the board!

The day we went seemed to be short staffed, so things took longer than expected, but our experience overall was great. When they were ready for us, they guided us to the fitting rooms with showers. We were given shoes, robes, towels, and tote bags. There are no official lockers here, so you are welcome to take your tote with you into your private bath. The fitting room had everything you needed. When we were ready we had another long wait, but were invited to enjoy the sauna. They gave us refreshing mint iced washcloths for the sauna that I loved. They have a menu with a bunch of great add-ons, I decided to stick with the water, but my best friend got the coconut water. When our bath was ready, they showed us a map on how to get down to our soak. We walked down a beautiful hill path to our bath overlooking the forest. Even though we started late, they still gave us the full hour. The intercom system seems to be a bit older. There was an awkward moment where they tried to speak to us, but we couldn't hear them over the hot tub bubbles, when I went back to ask them what they said, they never replied. Besides that, we had a wonderful time. Be mindful that the drive up is a bit confusing, you'll want to do a mix of following their signs and your GPS. The experience is also a bit pricey for what it is, but I'm still glad I tried it with my best friend.

I do have to say though, that we were both a little surprised and disappointed in the amount of time that the foot soak/massage session lasted. On our confirmation email, stated that the session would last 2 hours and 30 minutes. Our session was by no means that long. The price of the Ashi Foot Soak was expensive, $175.00 is a lot of money for about an hour long session and to say that we were a bit let down is an understatement.
