| - This is a fantastic value! I'd been trying to get all my friends to try it, but they just weren't sure about a massage place in a strip mall.
They need to get over it. Seriously. The place was quiet, clean, and safe. I went with my boyfriend, who was trying to justify several hundred dollars on a couple's spa day. I've never been to a spa, so I'm sure it's worth it, but I needed a real massage.
Rex did my massage, and a woman (I didn't catch her name) did my boyfriend's. We got to sit side by side in comfy chairs. We were offered water/tea, and everyone was so welcoming and nice.
They brought the tea water foot bath, and the temperature was just right. Rex really worked hard on my shoulders, first. It was great, the pressure was perfect, and he made sure to ask often if it was ok. Then he asked if I wanted the head massage, and of course I said yes. It was really nice, except I was a little alarmed with the fingers in the ears. I've never had that done before, but it wasn't bad. Then he worked on my feet for a really long time. I'm super sensitive with my feet and legs, barely touching them hurts a lot. So this part was a bit painful for me, and I had to tell him to go lighter. He instantly apologized and changed pressure. Even though it was a bit painful at times, my feet have never felt better! Then I flipped over and got the back, legs and hips.
Some extras I should mention: Next time I'll ask for more shoulders and neck, as it was fantastic!! Also, I have to mention, that I had a huge bruise/knot on my leg, and Rex was great about working around it. My boyfriend has a messed up back, and even the chiro's can't pop it, but at the end of his massage, he got some wonderful cracking because he was that loose! He was so happy. The phone thing did happen, but she was so quiet, it wasn't disruptive. The music isn't great, but it didn't hinder my relaxation. We did make an appointment, so we didn't have to wait.
I really can't wait to go back.
