Booking was easy, you can do so either via phone or the link on their website. I selected a 90-minute Swedish massage--50-60 minutes is when you finally start to relax, so 90 minutes brings it all to fruition! Their prices are competitive and the quality surpassed the cost. My masseuse was Jeanette and I even returned during my next trip to make sure she worked with me again. The ambiance is fitting of a high-end spa. Parking is easy and the venue is close enough to I-87 to make it a worthy trip. If you live in the area, or are just passing through, be sure to make an appointment and zen away your day!

A couple of days later I got a rude email saying she was changing my appointment to a different day. It wasn't a question but a statement. When I informed her that I couldn't make that appointment she decided it was okay to keep my original appointment, she had only changed it in the first place because she decided she didn't want to work that day. Her place is also difficult to find so she gave me directions, but I still had trouble finding it (which I'm fine with btw, difficult to find places are often worth the effort) but when I called because I was lost she was rude and acted like I was stupid, something that continued once I was there. For all of that attitude I would have expected a fabulous facility but its a glorified closet within a doctor's office which I find weird. And her regular prices are more expensive then other places around here. Save yourself the trouble and go see Katerina and Body Essentials in Clifton Park. She is amazing and it only costs $55!

They offer a free first service, and I got 2 services so this was a nice touch. All of the staff I encountered were pleasant and professional and I was out in about 10 minutes! While I was there the member performing my services (eyebrows and lip) showed me how they looked and I was very pleased. She cleaned up my eyebrows very nicely but didn't shape them very much, which didn't bother me as I was just looking for them to be straightened out. --Side note: the wax they use was very gentle, no paper glued to your face, just pulling off hot wax which was a very nice change.-- My only complaint comes now that I took a better look at home. My eyebrows are definitely cleaned up but they are some stragglers that I'll have to pluck, and although the wax was gentle it didn't seem to really pull all the hairs completely, I can tell I'll need a wax again very soon unfortunately. Overall I would recommend this place if you're in a time pinch like I was. The experience was pretty good and the service was speedy and professional. **I would've liked to give 3.5 stars but Yelp doesn't allow it, but they definitely deserve more of a 4 than a 3**

When I…read morearrived, I was asked if would be open to getting a free wax (it seemed as if the water was just finishing training or just finished training) and I agreed to this. I understand that training services aren't just that, but there's also a certain expectation of quality. I had a Brazilian that left a lot of hair behind and the waxer pinched me a number of times trying to get the wax strips off. As I was under a time constraint and had planned for a 15 minute service, I had to stop her after 30 minutes and leave without a complete wax. She was very nice, but the service was incredibly disappointing and left me frustrated

As I was sitting on the stairs waiting for her to show up 10 min before my appointment, she texts other clients and I that she will not be coming in because of a "family emergency." She should've let us know at least an hour before if it is a "family emergency." I completely understand and at least it was nice of her to text me and let me know, but not 10 minutes before the appointments. Definitely will not recommend.
