a pleasant experience!
I'm not a huge spa person but was very tempted to actually use my benefits from work. After doing some research on yelp ofcourse i decided to book an appoinment at Toronto Bodyworks.
They were so pleasant to work with. I got a call back immediately after i left a message with over 12 alternate time slots (the one i wanted wasn't available). As soon as i booked the appointment they sent me forms to fill out over email with directions on how to get there - they aren't kidding when they saypay close attention - the tiny little store front is really easy to miss. They even gave me a reminder call on thanksgiving day - appreciated!
I wanted a really good massage for my bad back and that i got. Alex was fantastic - we had an inital 15 minute consult on my problem areas and she worked on those specifically.
Its a no frills kinda place - no zen like spas here and for that i wouldnt give them 5 stars but they never promised a snazzy spa-like experience. The walk up the stairs to the studio itself was quite scary.
But if you want a good massage - this is the place to be!
