    I should have known better before trying a place that I saw on Instagram, that's on Newbury! 1. Space is clean but look very dark and dodgy. Neon lights in the bathroom, tiny changing rooms. 2. They never cleaned my face property even though I said twice I have makeup on, including mascara. How can you do a facial on a face that's not cleansed. See photos of what I took off when I got home (I don't even wear much makeup). 3. The person that was doing facial said I should do a different one so my skin is more glowy (I was in the dodgy room at this point). I asked what the price difference was and she said it was the same today for me. I said fine. She was using terms I had no clue about. I said fine do it. She started scraping my forehead. I asked what she was using and she said it's a scalpel. You gonna be kidding me! I told her to stop immediately. Today is day after and whatever she did on my forehead my skin is burning still the next day. I am using a lot of calendula. 4. At the end she went to upsell me on a bunch of the products they had there, which looked like they were home made and self packaged. No control over beauty industry! 5. This is a typical instagram / millennial place. Aesthetician was pretty clueless and the overall experience was terrible. Don't fall victim of influencer feeds like I did!

    Relaxing facial and really knowledgeable staff. My skin feels amazing, though the appointment ran a bit longer than expected

    I gave a Father's Day gift to my husband and he loved it . He liked the luxury feel of the facial.

As a first-timer, I didn't know what to expect, and she could not have made the experience easier. From the minute i walked in, I felt like I had known her forever and the process was seamless.

The word on the street was that Karen Golden was the person you went to if you were coming into this from a place of trauma and the street wasn't kidding. If you're kind of a hot mess, you won't find a more compassionate person. She's not judgy, she's not unkind, and she makes the process of ripping your pubic hair out of your body as not-awful as it possibly could be. The room is clean and smells nice. Her assistant Lara is also as kind as can be. She takes cash or checks and everyone is understanding if you don't come by on the regular or have to cancel at the last minute (I disappear for months at a time: my income ain't what it used to be) but if you can only go to one place for the rest of your life for waxing, this is where you should go. She's the best.

I've had a few facials in my life, but this one…read morewas next level and didn't feel like I was paying someone hundreds of dollars to wash my face. I had a 60 minute signature facial, and while I am blessed with good skin genetics and do a lot to take care of my skin oh my own time, I get hormonal cystic acne and have some scarring because of it. Her studio space is adorable, relaxing and comfy. She also wore a mask the whole time and encouraged me to wash and sanitize my hands (at her ensuite sink!) right when I walked in which I appreciated. Meredith clearly used every tool and bit of knowledge at her disposal to do as much as she could for my skin in the time that we had. She did so many different things to my face (based on what I told her about my goals and what she saw - I'm sure it would be different for everyone) but there were cleansers, peels, vibrations, LED lights, steam & extractions, vitamins...I must be missing something. I left so glowy I can't wait to go back! Thank you Meredith!

It looked like a tiny massage place from the outside, but when I knocked I was pleasantly surprised -- the interior is beautiful, serene, and immaculately clean. I immediately booked a 90-minute massage. The price was incredible: their cash rate shows $80 for one hour, but I booked a 90-minute session and paid only $120 (plus tip) -- an absolute steal that felt like a $150 experience. The massage itself was outstanding: skilled, attentive, and perfectly tailored to my needs. Each treatment room is individualized and thoughtfully arranged, and the whole operation felt extremely professional. If you get the chance, book ahead -- Rose Health Spa is a hidden gem in Chinatown and a must-visit for anyone looking for top-quality care at an amazing value. Highly recommend!

Rose health spa is basic, but efficient and well priced. I was able to make a same day appointment by calling. They asked me to pay with cash which I typically do for this type of service anyway. I had a 60 min deep tissue massage with Julie and it was very good. The room was minimalistic but player relaxing music. Julie used decent pressure and spent a good amount of time on my neck and back where I was experiencing the most pain. Prices for massages in boston have become completely unaffordable. I can't wait to come back to rose health spa due to the value. Thank you!
