New to town and trying to find a good place for my monthly massage and facial. Decided to give…read moreRenew a try. Please note this review is not a reflection of the staff, just my personal opinion of the overall experience. The masseuse and esthetician were good however I had a few issues with the location. Located in a business park and very close to a main road right across from a high school. Upon entering the clean waiting room I was greeted and given paperwork to complete. There was a diffuser on, with a pleasant smell however the scent was extremely overwhelming...like hit you in the back of the throat, coughing overwhelming. While I waiting I noted there are two treatment rooms directly off of the waiting room, odd as I've always been to places where the check in/waiting area is separate from any treatment rooms. So close in-fact I could hear another guest talking to her masseuse. I was praying I wouldn't get the other room off the waiting area, but just my luck that was my room. My masseuse was very pleasant and did a good job. I had no issue with the service but the environment was so far from relaxing. Upon entering my room I noticed how bright it was. No overhead light but a lamp on and a large window with sheer drapes which let in a lot of light. This window also received direct sun which made the room very warm on a 100+ degree day. The massage started and I was trying to relax when there was conversation in the waiting room, a man was checking out and speaking very loud, he then excited the spa. There is a literal bell on the door handle which goes off every time someone enter or exits, if that wasn't enough there is an electronic chime that ALSO goes off every time the front door is used. I understand the purpose but it is far from relaxing hearing multiple chimes/bells when the front door is used. The bell/chimes went off multiple times during my service, very distracting. My treatment room shared the front wall of the business which has parking spots a sidewalks length away. I had the joy of hearing every car door open/close, honks from doors being locked and someone's very loud stereo, don't forget the motorcycle rev. The business is close to the road so you hear the traffic going by. I was there on a weekend so the traffic from the high school wasn't bad and most if not all businesses in the business park were closed. I can't imagine how loud it would be during the week. Following my service I was instructed to put on a robe and wait in the waiting area for my next service. I found it uncomfortable siting in my robe in a public waiting area while I held my clothes in my arms. I was then escorted to my next service, I was optimistic as I was taken back into the spa. Just my luck my next room was located with the main wall against the roadway. Thankfully I had a head wrap on and the facial steamer helped mask the sound of the passing traffic. But again, I could still hear the electronic chime every time someone used the from door. My service was good and the esthetician was pleasant and knowledgeable. I booked my appointment the night before and received multiple "reminder" texts the day of which was nice I'm on the fence if I will return or not, if I did it would only be for a facial as the environment is not relaxing for a massage in my opinion. .

I originally went here for a massage due to realizing that my posture had gotten horrible. Sandra does reflexology, which was new to me, but felt amazing! I got talking to Mikell one day about the issues I've had with my skin; I have extremely dry skin that causes breakouts. Nothing has worked, since I was 16. Until now!! Mikell is honestly a miracle worker!! And the products she uses are naturally based and wonderful!! After a couple weeks of getting regular facials, I decided "what the heck, I need a haircut too, why not??" and made a haircut appt. That was a lovely decision!! I told Britton to do what he thought would look good, and he did a lovely job! Different than what I had and a cut that has gotten me lots of compliments. Bottom line--they have a customer who will keep coming back!! The only thing I haven't tried is a manicure/pedicure. But I have a feeling when I'm due for one, I know where I will come!! Plus. They treat you like family! It's very welcoming!!

She's intuitive, professional, and a clear communicator- letting me know ahead of time what to expect and making sure I felt comfortable to communicate my needs regarding pressure/intensity and areas of concern. Lora is also very knowledgeable and offered me suggestions for how to ease tension in my leg muscles using a foam roller, to continue loosening the muscles she worked on. She also doesn't rattle on with unnecessary chatter...unless that's what you want. I prefer quiet time to reflect and breathe into the work. Her demeanor is relaxed and soothing and at no point did I feel rushed, including afterwards when she encouraged me to take a few minutes to stretch and breathe before rising to dress. Lora is a true healer. I highly recommend her and I'll be returning again to receive her magic touch, for sure! :)

Both of them NEVER had an issue finding my veins and getting the IV in painlessly on the first try, even when I was dehydrated or getting over the flu. Dr. Kermen also did mine once with zero issues or pain. The only issues I've had here are with the new people who I rarely or have never seen before. Allie had a hard time a while back and had to stick me a couple times. I have probably had 20 IVs between different clinics over the last 4 years, so this is nothing new to me. Today, I went in, and immediately realized the one nurse in here I had never seen before, James. I immediately got anxiety bc I didn't know how it was going to go. He stuck me TWICE in two veins on two different arms that people typically don't struggle with, and had to end up texting another nurse to come in on her day off to see if she could take a look. That nurse was Alicia. After looking me over, she tried a third time and nope, still couldn't get it. While she was looking me over, James was working on another client and couldn't get his in either and needed Alicia to come try that client too! At that point I decided I was over it and my anxiety was so bad. I did not want to keep being stuck, so I left and they refunded me and I sat in my car after and cried. I have a lot of anxiety every time I come in that it's going to hurt, and with Julia, my fears are always taken away, and I feel amazing after. This experience was so terrible IDK if I'll ever be ready to come back here or try another IV any time soon. I'm so bummed.
