I went in for an afternoon of treatments on a non student day, so it was a little less expensive but not deeply discounted like on student days. Therefore services were supposedly performed be graduates/professionals. The staff was polite, though I questioned the scheduling of my mani/pedi before my other services. SInce they would need to be very dry to do the facial/hand paraffin and massage. As it turns out the girl who did the mani/pedi did such a bad job it didn't much matter. She filed back and forth like a saw and then got the dark red polish all over my fingers and despite many attempts to clean it up, I still ended up with blotches of polish around my nails.(If I can I'll add a picture). The esthetician wasn't too bad though she had turned on the steam and then tripped over the machine. She ended up not using it at all (I assume she broke it since I stated that my main purpose for the facial was moisturizing.) I also said I used ultra gentle facial products and never alpha hydroxy... so I was surprised that she put alpha hydroxy on my face. When I got to the massage it made some sense since confused me with the friend came with that day, and it turned out they had mixed our charts. The massage room was cold, the music was loud and and the treatment was fast and jerky- not the swedish relaxing massage I had asked for. Going with the Spa at CTS saved us $20 over our second choice. When you're shelling out $175 to $200 plus tips the $20 isn't worth the total lack of quality. I warn customers as well as people considering being students if this is what the graduate. read more

The Spa at Eastern - "professional" manicure by Spa at CTS graduate. - Day Spas Near Me - Fredericksburg, Virginia

See all

I've gone here 3 times, once for a student massage and twice for a graduate massage. In each case I received a very skilled and attentive massage that focused on my problem areas. I have a lot of muscle tension in my lower back and issues with my shoulders and the massage therapists paid special attention to those areas to ensure the maximum physiological benefit. The prices were the best part. The 1 hour student massage was $25, and the one hour graduate massages were $35. There is a calming feel in the waiting room and the therapist arrives quickly to take you back to the well-appointed massage room. The heated massage tables and hot towels start working before you feel the oiled hands on the skin and muscles. I'm a huge fan of a good massage and I plan to make regular appointments here because the price is low enough that I can indulge more frequently than I probably need to. My last two massages were by Brandon who is well studied and passionate about the kinesiological attributes of massage therapy. Great service at a great price make me a repeat customer. read more

I visited today and received a graduate 90 minute massage and a facial. The massage was $40 and the facial was $35 (I think). Both were absolutely amazing. I was nervous at first. Since they were graduate services I was thinking that the service would be just ok, nothing amazing. I was pleasantly surprised. Both were professional, pleasant and very skilled. Even better I loved the price! $40 bucks for a 90 minute message? Yes please! I'm giving it 4 stars because when I signed up for my services I also signed up for a mani/pedi. I requested graduate service which should have been $15 bucks a pop. When I checked out it turns out I got a licensed technician which means I paid $29 a bucks a pop. Out of all the services it was the one I was least impressed with. Not bad, just nothing special. In short - it was a great visit, a great value. I highly recommend you go! read more

Had an awesome massage in a tranquil professional environment. I'm not sure what else to say but I'd love to give a great review. However Yelp seems to think my simple review is not worthy of posting unless it's insanely long. So what else could I say? Hmmm maybe I'd give it half a start less of the location were easier to find but I think that adds to it feeling exclusive. Like higher end because it's not out in the open. You gotta know to go there. My review is now at an average length so I guess I can be done typing now. read more

I visit the Spa @ Eastern once a week. Brian's staff is friendly, professional and completely knowledgeable of the products and services they offer. Ben is generally there to greet me when I arrive and does so by name; a very nice touch. Such a wonderful experience! The services/treatments performed are as quality as I have found on luxury cruise ships and/or 5 star resorts, here and abroad. My massage therapist is Brendan, he is professional yet caring, completely affable and I would recommend him as your therapist of choice. I have and will continue to recommend the Spa at Eastern to anyone who is a connoisseur of relaxing (and therapeutic) spa treatments and services. Most sincerely, Mrs. Sabrina B.

I spent a spa day with a friend on a day that was supposed to be without students. The facial was the best treatment. My massage was just someone else moisturizing my body. She rarely found a muscle. The manicure and pedicure was like letting my daughters do it. They were all very nice and it is a great atmosphere but the students at this school are not getting a good education. read more
