Deep Tissue Stone Massage
As the name implies, this technique uses deeper pressure than Swedish. A full body service intended to release chronic patterns of tension via slow strokes using a more intense pressure on muscles and tissues by using a combination of selected heated Basalt stones, the forearm/ elbow of the therapist across the grain of muscles and tendons. Following the application of heat, chilled white marble stones are often used to anesthetize and address painful areas, bringing about a much faster repair response. A Deep Tissue Stone session is not always about simple relaxation. Good for body areas experiencing contractions, muscle spasms and other discomforts, including recently developed problems. |

Foot Stone Reflexology
This technique is based on the Egyptian theory that all organs and parts of the body have corresponding reflexes on the sole of the feet and palms on the hand. Acupressure points in each foot affect the body’s own healing forces, stimulating organs or functions in distant parts of the body. Also helps to release stored up toxins, aids poor circulation, releases tension and stress within the body. A good foot massage often feels as comforting as an overall body massage. Only shoes and socks need to be removed. Heated, oiled Basalt stones are used on feet and lower legs. |

Reiki Energy (30)
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. |

Response from Sound Stone Massage Studio
The Rejuvenation Facial is the longest facial we offer at 1 hour 15 minutes and the Extremities massage is 1 hour. Combined these services are 2 hours 15 minutes. I did check the SpaFinder service menu, as well as the online booking menu and our website and did not find any of the 3 facials we offer at 90 minutes. Perhaps you were looking at a different service or a package such as Head2Toes Rejuvenation which is a 2 1/2 hour combined service. You are correct however that your service time should have been 2 hours 15 minutes and not 1 hour 47 minutes, so we have deducted $35 from the bill. Perhaps the time was less as you indicated you did not want a back, leg, arm massage (i.e. full body). For a 3 hours service book a 90 minute massage, 30 min. foot reflexology and another Rejuvenation Facial = 3 hrs 25 min. We use headphones and ambient music in the rooms to minimize and block outside noises which cannot always be 100% controlled in today's environment.

Response from Sound Stone Massage Studio
We are sorry and disappointed that you did not enjoy your Face & Body session 4 months ago (Nov. 21, 2009) which was a birthday gift from your husband. Our Client Intake form, which you signed, contains these 2 sentences. "I understand that the massage/bodywork I receive is provided for the basic purpose of relaxation and relief of muscular tension. If I experience any pain or discomfort during this session, or prefer a different technique, I will immediately inform the therapist so that the pressure and/or strokes may be adjusted to my level of comfort." Had the therapist known of your dissatisfaction, alternatives could have been offered. Yes, we are located in a mall that, despite it's age is very well maintained and has been going thru an exciting metamorphosis turning into a cultural "ArtSpace" thanks to new forward thinking owners. In fact, the mall was just awarded the prestigious MAXI Award by the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) for its efforts. The Crestwood Court plaza is safe with 24-hour security, super clean, has a 1/2-mile indoor walking circuit popular with hundreds seeking exercise. Plus, there are 4 live theatre groups, 5 dance studios, art galleries, classes in magic, jewelry, ceramics, 2 indoor play areas for kids, plus 2 major restaurants, AMC movie theatre and several national chain stores (Sears, The Limited, Gap, Foot Locker and more.) We absolutely LOVE the eclectic, small village atmosphere that is taking place. When your husband called to make the appointment he was informed that we were in the middle of major renovation construction and suggested he book your appointment later in December. However, he seemed insistent that your appointment not be delayed. The new drywall and doors were installed the day before your appointment and the therapist apologized for the unfinished, gray-papered look. We were only using one of the rooms, thus seeing clients one-by-one with a skeleton staff of 2. The service selected does include a settling-in, transition time at the beginning with very warm steam towels. Regarding the music - it is the same music that has been used for more than 10 years with more than 6000 people because it simply works. These 30 to 60 minute long tracks were created in a recording studio where the musicians monitored a test-subject's vital signs - blood pressure, brain-wave patterns, respiration, heartbeat etc. so the recorded music could be calibrated to induce soothing, deep states of relaxation to specific levels. The music is gentle, calming with smooth transitions. In over 10 years there has only been 4 people who asked it to be turned off. Had you requested silence we would have obliged....although it would be like attending a Broadway musical and requesting no music, just talking. It is customary at the end of a service for the therapist to immediately go to the staff room to scrub the forearms and hands as required by health codes and state law. This typically takes about 4 to 5 minutes and clients typically take 5 to 10 minutes to get dressed and leave the room. When the therapist returned to the room and reception area you had vanished and did not stay to be checked out. In summation, it seemed your spouse perhaps wanted you to have the 2-hour service more than you did. He very much wanted you to enjoy this service and we should not have accepted your booking 2 weeks after we moved to this new location, without proper reception area furniture, staff and in the middle of a major renovation. We apologize to him and to you for our miss-judgment.

We strive to give everyone a wonderful experience and apologize for the interruption. There was an emergency with a client in another room and my colleague felt she needed assistance. I would have preferred not to have the panic response and disruption. Regarding the massage, you informed us you are in the first trimester of your first pregnancy and we informed you it would be a lighter, careful massage. Many spas decline to offer massage during the first trimester. We've sent you an invitation to return during your 2nd or 3rd trimester with a therapist of your choice.
