| - I had a great first experience at The Spa at Trump with my boyfriend this past J4th weekend! The spa is just as beautiful as the rest of the hotel. There were so many amenities in the womens room that I had to take advantage of.
Upon arrival, I was given a tour of the womens facilities. I changed into the robe provided and made my way over to the co-ed waiting room. We waited maybe 5 minutes for our masseuses.
My masseuse was Wally and I had the classic Swedish massage but had asked Wally to apply a firm pressure along my upper back, neck, and shoulders. He then explained to me his technique on massaging the hip rotators and how it can be an uncomfortable pain but is great for relieving back tension.
Overall, the massage was GREAT. ** The key is to not be afraid to ask your masseuse to add more or less pressure... c'mon you're paying for this service, you should have it done the way you like! I navigated Wally into the perfect amount of pressure and from that moment on I was in heaven!! He was very polite and complied quickly when I requested little or more pressure. The massage of the hip rotators was a bit uncomfortable but I managed to stick it out and my back had never felt better!
For the boyfriend, he requested a sport therapy / deep tissue massage and his body was in bliss afterwards. He really enjoyed his massage as well commenting on how his masseuse managed to knead away knots he had in his calves and the tension in his shins that causes his shinsplints.
Following our massage we both took advantage of the spa amenities. I used the steam room which was empty at the time... like. The steam room is incredibly hot and I love that.... you can't get that kind of heat at the 24 hr fitness steam rooms. They provide cold towels to use in the steam room or saunas. I must have been in there for 30+ minutes... then immediately trotted across to a shower stall.
The showers are huge and have a rain-like shower head on the ceiling directly above you. I grabbed some body scrub and aloe face mask from outside to apply during my shower so I can feel pretty. There is shampoo, conditioner, and body wash provided in shower stalls. They smell great and I assume of decent quality.
In the women's locker area, there are only 2 private vanity rooms that include a flat iron, hair dryer, mirror, hairbrush, comb, etc... basically all the bare necessities following a shower. The flat iron and hair dryer didn't appear to be in good condition, so I opted not to use any of their vanity items and instead put my hair in a bun and went on my merry way.
A wonderful first time experience and left me feeling relaxed and refreshed for the rest of my weekend.
