Best spa experience I have ever had!

I have been to many spas in my life (including many 5 star spas) and I have to say this was the best spa experience I have ever had.From the moment I came into the spa I felt very relaxed. The front desk staff were very accommodating and welcoming.I received a combo massage which was exactly what my sore body needed. I also received a hand and foot scrub, which left my skin feeling fresh and soft.Overall, I would recommend this spa, without any hesitation, to everyone!

I have been going to Frances to get my eyebrows waxed for years, as well as for facials. As much as I dread the "quick" pain of the wax, he always make its comfortable & is so personable & fun to talk to. Most importantly, he listens to what I want & gives great advice. I have tried a few other places, but clearly Frances is the best in the Alexandria area. I would definitely recommend this spa, as I visit it every 3 weeks!!Thanks Fountains & Frances!!Kathy M.

I have been going to Fountains for years now. It's my #1 spot for massages and facials. I usually have pretty clear skin, but have had some problems lately. I have been extremely stressed out and broke out all over my cheeks and around my chin. So, I booked a microdermabrasion appointment with Francis (who is awesome) and continued with a couple of follow-up facial appointments. My face has finally calmed down! The texture is completely different - thank God! He's a miracle worker! Also, the product line they use - Guinot - is fabulous. My sister visited for Thanksgiving for about a week and was using my Guinot Hydra Tendre cream cleanser. She said that the dry patch on her forehead was completely gone. This dry patch had been a consistent issue for her. She even had a dermatology appointment scheduled for the following week! After using my products, she didn't have to go anymore. To sum it up, I go to Fountains for a few reasons: (1) Quality, friendly, knowledgeable staff; (2) Great products; (3) Great discounts (if you sign up for their email specials). FA-BU-LOUS!

Recently visited this spa with my daughter who was home on a college break and was wowed with the facial I got from Francis! He is a true artist when it comes to making the most of the experience!! the products they use are a French brand called Guinot and they are amazing products!! The facial I got was a 90 minute hydrodermie (?spelling), I was impressed with how intensive the work was for this type of service. He really worked on every aspect of my face, pores, blemishes, nutrients, moisturizers, and then more of all the above. The experience was A+++ and well worth every penny! I highly recommend this spa and, especially Francis! My daughter had a 60 min facial and really liked her technician as well, Her name was Shannon, In any case, you can't go wrong here!!

After several months of "spa deprivation" (due to killer work schedules), we were finally able to book into the Fountains Day Spa for a Labor Day | Wedding Anniversary treat! Amanda provided an absolutely amazing massage therapy treatment for me -- equal to the services of a neuro-muscular specialist!! She has an intuitive healing touch and is a real find for the spa. Following the massage, Angela (a truly angelic being) gave me an outstanding Hydradermie Ultra facial, which was a wonderful finish to the morning of beauty! Thank you, Fountains and Suzanne for the exceptionally talented staff (and for Savannah, who keeps things organized at the front desk). You are true professionals gifted with many talents for transforming tired souls.

After a very hectic few weeks, I had my first ever massage. It was wonderful -- caring, respectful, effective, relaxing. I was made to feel at ease right away. I will be back! Amber was terrific.

I had a massage with Jonathan after returning from a hectic 2 week vacation that I knew was going to leave me exhausted.I was looking forward to the massage and Jonathan did not disappoint. I had more knots in my shoulders (and apparently my legs) then I realized and he did an amazing job working as many of them out as possible.Massages for me have always been a luxury - but after the way I felt after leaving Fountains I think that they are so much more. I can't wait for my next one!

Bychristinac | July 20, 2011
I came to the fountains day spa for my first ever body wrap two weeks ago. Upon entering, I was greeted immediately by the front desk. The receptionist did a great job of making me feel welcomed, offering some cucumber infused water and making small talk with me. After signing in, Amanda welcomed me and led me upstairs to the room. I had heard how great body wraps were for the skin and I felt that mine was tired, dry, and dull. I knew it would be a great way to get my skin glowing after some time at the beach and pool. As soon as I got in the room, she explained the procedure and left me to get ready. When she re-entered the room, she got to work. I was shocked at the results. My skin remained totally moisturized for the next 5 days! Hahaha I didnt put a single drop of lotion on my knees or elbows ( my most commonly extremely dry areas). I definitely thought Amanda did a great job making me feel comfortable during the procedure, the room itself was very calming ( decor, music, and lighting)!
