| - I went to AnishaS to use a voucher from Dealfind. The voucher was for: a 60 minute chocolate body wrap, a 30-minute manicure, 30-minute pedicure, and a 30-minute massage.
The unfortunate thing about this place is its location. It's in a gym, and there is almost no separation between the two areas, so in the waiting room you can hear the fitness equipment and the base in the music, which is less relaxing that I would like. The spa definitely is not your traditional spa, there is no relaxing lounge to wait in, no change rooms, lockers, showers or spa tub to use.
My appointment was on time. All of the treatments took place in one room, I didn't even have to get up. She applied the chocolate body wrap (seems like chocolate pudding, and then they cover it in saran wrap). The chocolate was cold, but I have no other complaints about the treatment. While the wrap was setting, she did the manicure and pedicure. These were pretty weak, with no soaking, no cuticle cutting, and pretty lazy shaping. I've done better jobs at home.
After that she used a warm cloth and a bucket of water to wipe off the chocolate mud. This process wasn't exactly painful, but it wasn't really enjoyable either. The cloth is rough and she scrubbed pretty hard to get the stuff off.
Then the masage, which she did the backs of my legs and then my back. It was nice, not the best or worst massage I've ever had.
The best part was at the end, when I was getting up to change, she had left a box of chocolates to finish off the treatment. That was a cute little surprise.
Overall the experience was fine, but it's not a very luxurious place and the manicure and pedicure were a disapointment. I probably wouldn't go back, but I did get my money's worth out of my Dealfind voucher.
