| - My fiance and I stayed at the resort for a week during Valentine's Day, and overall, it was a good experience. However, this review is about my INCREDIBLE experience at the spa! I had Art for my massage, and my fiance had Michelle for his (and thought she was great.) He rarely feels truly relaxed during a message, and he came out completely zen-ed out. Loved seeing him so chill.
My RIDICULOUSLY amazeballs massage was with Art. Can we start with shallow things? Firstly, he is, hands down, one of the coolest looking people you've ever seen. I know that sounds strange, but seriously: you've never seen a person with more beautiful hair -- I don't even want to tell you about it...I just want to let you experience the coolness for yourself as I did. :) On to the important stuff. My back muscles are inhabited by Satan. I have been to 30+ massage therapists and only one (before I met Art) had been able to break through my lower lumbar muscles. BUT, no one had ever been able to defeat my shoulder muscles...UNTIL ART! When I say deep tissue...I don't mean "a lot of pressure"...I mean "Please Atomic Elbow my back throughout the entire massage, sir." Well, I don't know what type of magic is in Art's fingers and hands...but he manipulated my muscles in a way where he was clearly using a lot of pressure, but it felt gentle somehow at the same time? I wish I could explain this fabulous experience better but the words escape me. All I'm saying is the man can do anything: gentle or destroy demonic back muscles with you barely noticing it's happening. My back and shoulders felt like jelly for over a week after my massage with him. Some people are massage therapists, and I can't for the life of me understand why, because it clearly isn't their calling. BUT: Art, on the other hand, should never be anything else. That man is a back healer, so relaxing, and truly gifted. Thank you so much, Art!
I cannot wait to come back to Scottsdale just to go to massage heaven again. :) You're the best!!
Also, side note: Penny (I believe that was her name) the receptionist was super friendly, helpful, and very fun! They have a great staff there. Whoever did their hiring knows their stuff. Because of them all, I had a perfect experience for my Valentine's Day massage...
