Even though there was a bit of a language barrier, it didn't affect the quality of the massage at all. The techniques were smooth, relaxing, the pressure was good, and the massage oil was properly reapplied so there wasn't any uncomfortable friction. I felt immediate relief and left feeling much more relaxed.

I went in not knowing how I'd feel about the place and walked out a full-blown member. I can be really sensitive to scents, so I love and appreciate how natural all of their products smell. I was also a little worried about the "shared room" concept, but meanwhile I felt like I was alone on a beach somewhere beautiful and on vacation. They do such a great job with the white noise too -- actual relaxing waves crashing on a beach, not the annoying kind lol. When I called last night, I spoke with someone who was so sweet and helpful (I wish I got her name), and she answered all of my questions. Then today for my appointment, I was greeted by Ky, who helped me sign up for the membership at the end. I swear everyone here just has this warm, kind, welcoming energy to them, which is so important for a place like this I can't wait to come back!

All therapists are great, but i have moved to Elizabeth V as my primary therapist as she has an aura about her that glows. She truly cares about not just the quality of your massage but your post massage care as well. She gives advice about things you can do at home to work on problem areas. You do need to book her at least 2 weeks in advance (yup shes that good). Ive never had an unpleasant experience here in 2 years, Everyone on the staff is kind and courteous. Its always extremely clean welcoming. Very easy to relax into your massage. 10/10

Nikki, Cindy, and more recently Gail have all been excellent, and this review is absolutely not about them. Unfortunately, my experience today (and especially how it was handled afterward) was extremely disappointing. I had a very sore shoulder and wanted a deep tissue massage as soon as possible. None of the therapists I normally see were available, which I completely understand since they tend to book in advance, so I scheduled with the first available therapist. The massage honestly felt more like torture than treatment. It repeatedly felt as though she was working directly on bones and joints rather than muscle. I asked several times for the pressure to be adjusted, but she seemed unable to find an appropriate level--it was either painfully hard or so light that it felt like she was just swiping over my skin. At one point, I was simply waiting for the massage to end. There were other uncomfortable aspects as well. I was asked to lie face down wearing only the provided shorts and wait for her to return, without being covered by a sheet. The room was quite cold, and although I specifically requested the bed warmer, it wasn't turned on. When I was face up, her breath smelled strongly of garlic, which made it genuinely unpleasant to breathe while she was working close to my face. What bothered me most, however, was the response from the front desk afterward. I calmly explained everything that had happened during the session in detail. Their response was essentially surprise because apparently this therapist is frequently requested, followed by, "We just won't book you with her again." That was it. No apology. No acknowledgment that this was a very poor experience. No offer to make it right in any way. I was still charged the full amount as usual. I understand that not every therapist is going to be the right fit for every client, and I would not have written this review simply because I disliked one massage. But when a longtime customer explains that a session was physically uncomfortable despite repeatedly asking the therapist to adjust, I would expect the business to show at least some concern and take responsibility for the experience. After more than six years as a loyal customer, I was really disappointed by how dismissively this was handled.

I was really hoping for this to be a great experience, but it was extremely disappointing. I had…read morejust ended a 2-day conference where I was on my feet all day in heels and sorely needed a foot massage. I called this place and they were ready to take me in 15 minutes. when I arrived, they asked for payment upfront. this is highly unusual and nowhere else that offers any kind of service (spa, salon, etc.) takes payment upfront. this should've been my first clue that clients often dispute the charges, so this is why they take it before the service. when i entered the massage area, I realized that you dont get your own room, and your massage bed is not partitioned, so its. shared room with about 10 beds. what ended up happening is that the guy next to me fell asleep and snored very loudly the ENTIRE time of my massage. obviously this prevents any sort of relaxation. so, effectively my massage was ruined. I could not ignore it and it was so so annoying to have to listen to. as far as my masseuse, there were a couple issues there too. first, the entire time he focused on the center section of my foot, he did not touch the toes or the heel. this place advertises itself as reflexology, and the toes are a major part of that. so that was extremely disappointing and I could've really used that part of the foot massage. if youre going to have a one-hour massage focused only on the feet, you have to do the ENTIRE foot, I felt like this is just obvious. however, I couldn't communicate with him at all as he doesnt speak english. second, he used SO much lotion, my feet felt like they were swimming in a swamp during the entire massage. it was horrible, and he couldnt get any real traction because of the insane amount of lotion. finally, at the end I tipped him about 13%, because I felt like he tried his best, however the overall environment there, plus his skills, was lacking. as we walked out, he walked through the door into the lobby and let it close in front of my face rather than holding it open for me. when I entered the lobby, the receptionist asked me how the service was. I told him about the snoring. he did not apologize, but instead said he could discount my service but could I please tip the masseuse more, since that wasn't his fault. then I explained the issue with the masseuse. he sad he would talk to him about it, and didn't end up discounting my service. this is the first time EVER in my entire life i have had someone ask me to tip more. not at any restaurant, bar, salon, spa, etc. has anyone ever said that, because it's common social etiquette that you NEVER ask for more tip, ESPECIALLY when you're told that there's a problem with the experience and/or service. this blew my mind that the masseuse ran to the receptionist right away to complain about his tip. and still no one apologized to me! needless to say, I will never come back!!
