| - I came for a visit to this spa while visiting Montreal and enjoyed myself. The ambiance is quaint, with a warm feel. The staff were polite and very friendly, but did not blow me away.
I started the afternoon with a body scrub and facial, followed by a massage. The scrub was ok, but could have been more complete - when I got home I noticed patches on my legs and sides that were clearly missed by the therapist.
Next was my facial - also done by the same therapist - probably the best facial I've ever had! My skin felt soft, fresh and renewed. No lingering greasiness and the perfect amount of moisture. To top it off, the skin in my face felt tighter and completely rejuvenated.
Last was my massage - sadly, nothing to write home about. The massage therapist was a male, which didn't bother me, but I was expecting more of a massage-type treatment, instead of simple mobilizations of my joints and energy / breath work and a very light petting type massage. I wish he had gotten into my muscles more - even after asking for more pressure, the therapist continued his routine. The treatment was relaxing, but could have been more therapeutic. All in all an ok visit to a cute spa.
