| - My sister and I bought a Groupon for my mom to go to this place. I'm a bit of a clean freak when it comes to communal machines and such. I don't like seeing dirty towels or robes laying around. When we got there, the place was really clean. The shelves weren't cluttered with products and there was no dirty laundry in sight. The lady had us fill out paperwork, then took us on a tour of the place. All of the rooms and machines were clean. She told us what each machine was, how it worked and the benefits. We weren't interested in tanning, so we skipped those rooms. There's a hydration machine that hydrates your skin (the temperature went up to 118 degrees, some slim machine that burns calories (also hot), a sauna, hydro massage, and a chair massage with optional facial.
When we asked how much the machines were, the lady said we could try it for free, for bringing my mom. I was not expecting that, but did not turn it down. I went to the chair massage and oh my! I loved it. I didn't do the facial because I'm skeptical of different creams and lights on my face. But, the rollers in the chair go all the way up your neck and massage that area. It hit all the areas where I was tight. There are foot and arm compressors. I still had some knots when I was done, but not as many. Then, I went to the hydro machine. That is by far my favorite. I have a little cold and after laying in that for 20 min I felt so much better! The temperature reaches 118 degrees and you're laying in there, with no clothes on, sweating. There is a face fan in the machine and you can stick your hand through a slot to adjust the fan or the temperature. You sweat out all the toxins, which I needed to do. Plus, your skin is so soft after!
My mom started out with the hydro machine. She always heats up quick and wasn't able to last. Then she went to the hydro massage bed where you lie down and there is water pressure that massages you. You can choose which area of your body you would like it to hit, the speed and the pressure on the screen. My mom fell in love with it and wants one in the house! She let me get on for the last 3 minutes and it felt great. The water was warm and I was able to adjust the settings to how I liked them.
My sister sat in the sauna since she was battling a cold too. She really liked that and felt and sounded better when she came out. Then, she went to the massage chair. She bought the facial portion as well. The set was $9. You could clearly see a positive difference in her skin when she was done.
They offer different packages or you can come in and use a machine. All in all we had a great spa/relaxation morning. The service was great. She answered all of our questions. The rooms are clean-they clean right when you're finished. I would definitely sign up for a membership here.
