I had a Swedish Massage with Holly, and she was fantastic! She made me feel comfortable as soon as I walked in. She even gave me some suggestions to try at home for my neck pain between sessions. I highly recommend her!
I got a massage with Holly. My back was so sore until I saw her. The massage was wonderful! I definitely will go back there. The spa is so nice. The treatment room had relaxing music playing and waterfall sounds. It was so peaceful. My only complaint is that the spa needs better signage, and a phone. It’s hard to find, and when you call for directions the phone number goes straight to voicemail.
I have been a client of Kristen’s for 19 years, and I can honestly say she is exceptional at what she does. Her facials are truly transformative—you always leave feeling refreshed, pampered, and genuinely cared for.
