Mama Kimosha's skills came recommended to me by my fiancee and I have got to say this is the best massage I've ever gotten in my life. I came in with complaints of upper back problems and left with my legs healed. I injured myself years ago given a demonstration and my brushed hamstring didn't heal properly. After leaving Mama Kimosha's office I could kick with my injured leg at full power again. Its been years and I thank her for giving me my leg back. THANK YOU and please patronize her!

Location/Atmosphere: it's located on a popular street in Hyde park so parking can be an issue on a busy weekend. As you walk into the building and down the stairs to the basement suite, you feel transported into a tranquil spa! You're greeted with calming music and a serene aroma that I couldn't make out. 4/5 Massage: I received a 1hr ​"Bettye's Body Butter Massage" by Bruce and I must say this was one of the top 5 massages I've ever had! He was super sweet and accommodating, making sure I was comfortable with every step. He even gave me some tips on stretching for my sore spots post workouts. I left feeling refreshed and super moisturized! 5/5 When scheduling, they'll take half the cost as a deposit and you'll pay the rest after your session. They have a variety of different packages and massages to choose from which is great so you can try something new each visit. Most def will be back!

I recently visited Betty O Day Spa, and I have to say, the establishment itself is beautiful and…read moreinviting. My massage therapist was excellent. He was very attentive, professional, and took such great care of me throughout my massage. I truly appreciated the care he provided. Unfortunately, my experience was overshadowed by an issue with my booking. I had a gift certificate specifically for a Hot Stone Massage, but when I arrived, my appointment had been entered as a Body Butter Massage. I brought the issue to the staff's attention, and my massage therapist also spoke with them about the situation. I understand that mistakes can happen, and I was told that the receptionist was responsible for entering the massage incorrectly. However, I was disappointed that after explaining the situation, no accommodation was offered--such as a discount toward a future visit or a complimentary massage. I want to emphasize that my massage therapist was wonderful and provided excellent service. My concern is with how the booking error was handled afterward. When a mistake is made by the establishment, I believe it is important to make the customer feel valued and to find a reasonable way to make the situation right. Betty O Day Spa is a beautiful establishment, and based on the quality of my massage therapist, I would consider returning. I just hope that in the future, greater care is taken when entering appointments and that customers are given better consideration when an error occurs.

How do I spell relief? Salvation? Hope? UnSoo!!!!!…read more UnSoo Kim, M.Ac., L.Ac., will now and forever by my acupuncture and physical therapy goddess. Four years ago I had a C-section, pulmonary embolism, two herniated discs, and a kidney stone in the space of four months. I was hospitalized three times. All the while pumping breast milk and managing to successfully produce enough for my infant son. I slept in a lounger chair for six months before moving back to my bed on a wedge that I never moved from. For almost the next three years I dealt with my primary doctors increasing amounts of strong narcotics (Oxycontin) and anti-epileptic drugs as a means to control my pain. After seeing a pain specialist, I began to get injections directly into my spine to deal with the ongoing pain I had in my lower back. And, none of it really worked or fixed the problem. This is where UnSoo comes in. After just a few treatments, my back is beginning to feel better. I am doing the physical therapy exercises she has given me to do. I am more than happy to shell out from my pocket to pay this woman for her unique expertise in both acupuncture and physical therapy, in which she is licensed. Additionally, she was a yoga teacher for many years. She knows her stuff and she knows the body. She has got a plan to get me back into working order in about four months, and I believe she will be able to do it and to help me do it. I'll be honest, the office is cramped and overfull, and has nothing like a spa feeling. However, I still won't take away a star. If you too suffer from lower back pain, I would recommend her in a heart beat.

For that reason, I've gotten massages off and on for the past eight years when necessary.

Devra is very knowledgeable about the body, knows how to work out injuries, and is friendly and nice too. I have been seeing her for about six months, and I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. Oh yeah, there are great rates for students too!

When I walked in, Duley made me feel comfortable and asked what areas I wanted him to focus on. I told him I was mainly looking for relief in my shoulders and back, and he spent a good amount of time working on my back, which I liked. Overall, the experience was decent. It wasn't the best massage I've ever had, but it also wasn't the worst. I did feel relaxed afterward, so that was a plus. A few things could have made the experience better. The noise level was a little distracting for me because I could hear street traffic, buses, and cars passing by. In my past massage experiences, the rooms were usually farther back or more quiet. Also, the bathroom sink could have been cleaner, and I was a little surprised that water wasn't offered after the massage, since that's something I'm used to at other places. Overall, I appreciate the service and how comfortable I was made to feel, but there are a few areas that could improve the overall experience.
