. . "I have been to Elements twice in the last few months thanks to my boyfriend. The front desk staff are awesome and the place is very welcoming and clean. During the first visit I had Rosa and I would say it was average. I felt fine afterwards but her \"table side\" manner left something to be desired as she doesn't smile and is quite awkward. I thought maybe on the next massage I would find a better fit. Unfortunately that wasn't the case as this time I had Kristen (sp?). About 10 minutes into my massage I wanted to tell her to stop so that I could leave; unfortunately I'm not that forward of a person so I endured for 90min. When she asked about pressure I asked for more and while she did apply more pressure at times it was unbelievably sporadic. There was no flow to her massage. She would tap me with her fingertips like I was a typewriter and then shove her elbow into my back. I don't mind elbows but at least lead into it! I asked for her to pay attention to my neck, shoulders and lower back and although she did hit these areas briefly the majority of her time was in my mid back. She also kept tracing my ribs with her fingertips which I found to be very odd. Lastly, I had a major issue with her not asking about massaging my glutes. I require everyone to ask before touching my butt! Add to that how she draped the sheet and I was very uncomfortable. I would have been completely exposed if not for having muscular thighs. Overall I was worse off after the massage, it felt as though I had a novice massage therapist and a below average experience. We tipped as usual because I know my boyfriend will continue to go back but voiced our concerns to the staff up front."^^ . "2"^^ . "1"^^ . . "1"^^ . "2017-01-05T00:00:00"^^ . "0"^^ .
