*DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON MASSAGES AND FACIALS HERE*
I booked a package on groupon including a hot stone massage, facial, manicure and pedicure. The manicure and pedicure were basic- pretty much what you’d expect, so no complaints there.
The lady doing my massage was Dimple, and she seemed very nice. She was kind, and this review is in no way about her. Anyways, it was genuinely the worst massage I’ve had in my life. She went from barely any pressure at all to lots of pressure very fast, which led to a very uncomfortable experience. So much oil was used on my body that i’m sure my clothing now has oil stains, but that’s besides the point.
The back part of the massage was brief, with my masseuse heavily focusing on one part of my shoulder? and paying barely any attention to my neck or traps (where many key muscles lay).
When she did pay attention to my neck, she put so much pressure that I couldn’t breathe.
The facial wasn’t great either- it started off with a rough sugar scrub (assumedly?) and did a few other thinks before she put on the “face mask”. It immediately made my skin cool so I was a bit suspicious of it- and when she left the room to let it “dry”, I looked at the products she used. Along with walmart-quality lotions and products, the “face mask” was literally just aloe vera gel.
To end off this saga of events, as I was leaving, they asked me to pay extra for “GST”???? I’m a young girl who was by herself, so I assume they just thought I was stupid. For anyone who doesn’t know, GST is collected upon purchase of a product, definitely not after.
In conclusion, this spa is a dirty, unprofessional place that will attempt to scam you out of your money.
