I needed a massage badly since I have accumulated major tension along my entire back and shoulder areas. I wanted to keep it simple since this would be my first time at Ovarium. I've been used to amazing massages in NYC and this would be my first massage in Montreal. The ambiance was really serene and the people who worked there were very helpful. The place was clean and quiet. I met with Monica, where she took me to my private room, tastefully decorated with calming background music. We took 5 min to go over any health issues and she asked me if I have any specific areas that needed specific attention. The massage was so soothing with good pressure. She was very professional and never spoke during the session, which is what I like. There is a small lounge where you can gather yourself after the massage to recompose- you know, grogginess post massage, and have tea or something to drink. I liked it so much I plan to return next week. Hopefully it will be a great experience as the first time.
