$50 for an hour massage, are you kidding me??
Admittedly, I went in to this appointment a bit skeptical, however after being a massage club member for a year, what did I honestly have to lose? When I called to make my appointment, the gentleman was very accommodating and friendly, asking if it was my first visit. He genuinely said I would love the aromatherapy, hot towels, etc and helped me schedule a same-day appointment that accommodated my schedule.
Score 1 for business, 0 for skepticism.
I was running late due to horrendous traffic and called ahead and the receptionist was very understanding and assured me that I would receive my full 60 minute session and to relax. Not condescending, truly kind.
They're racking up the points, this business.
I arrive and am greeted warmly though the receptionist is on the phone with another client. (Which I'm sure we've all had that awkward experience of being ignored so do you sit...stand...or maybe I'm just awkward...) Anyway, leather chairs, candles burning, plush blanket draped over one of the chairs, gorgeous decor...I am instantly relaxed though it's taken me about 90 minutes to drive home from central Phoenix.
My massage therapist led me back through an equally beautiful hall to the room. Ambience is clearly what the owner(s) paid attention to when considering the decor. High walls, dark wood, the massage table had microfiber sheets, candle burning.
The massage products are all natural, as I understand from reviewing the website. I have very fair, sensitive skin (read: I'm a princess) so this is important to me. A hot towel is applied to the back of the neck after you roll over. My massage therapist even did some eucalyptus aromatherapy as my nose gets stuffy from lying face down that long.
Excellent experience. As an added bonus the massage therapist is extremely knowledgeable about neuromuscular therapy which is helpful for my chronic headaches. I will definitely return!
