About Stress Solutions Spa
As one would expect with a name like Stress Solutions, this spa specializes relieving the tensions of modern life. Services include massage, reiki, reflexology, facials, steams, and waxing. Those with an incurable sweet tooth will enjoy the Chocolate Delights menu, which allows you to try facials, wraps, massage, and polishes that incorporate the sweet stuff but won?t pack on the pounds. Other highlights on the spa menu are the milk and honey manicure and pedicure, the champagne facial, and the honey-butter hydrating wrap.Location

I went to this spa for the first time and had a facial and massage after a stressful few weeks. Unfortunately, I did not like either and could not relax at all due to noise and it was just not a relaxing environment.

WORST OWNER EVERBy TizianaC | February 21, 2012

9 of 18 People Found This Review Helpful
I feel bad for the people that work here because if they are good at what they do they should go somewhere else! The owner is so unprofessional, rude, nasty and lacks any sort of skills in communication and business. Their scheduling just plain out sucks!!! I didn't even have a chance to go in and I hate this place - I had a hard enough time trying to schedule an appt for a gift I got and the way she talked to both me and my mother on the fun was so ridiculous. Instead of getting the relaxing facials we were both looking for we both got upset and aggravated!!!! WORST EVER. I hope they close soon to allow space for a spa that is worth it!

Poor excuse for a spa.By KatM | December 5, 2011

WORST spa I have ever been to! A tiny little building. VERY SMALL. Walls are paper thin. Not cozy. The bathroom is DISGUSTING. While I was there, a sign was in the bathroom saying "DO NOT FLUSH TOILET PAPER." Do these people know about hygiene? They are way too pushy, and liars. Everyone I know who has been to this spa was their first and LAST time! GO TO ANY OTHER SPA.

Owner does NOT KNOW HOW TO RUN THIS PLACE. On top of the fact you can barely understand her. They also are not good with their appointment book, always giving the wrong clients to the wrong workers.

Have been enjoying the variety of services provided for about 2 years now. Been through some staff, and ownership changes, and might I add quality has not been affected one bit. In fact i would say the new owner has tried to give the place a new spin (new beautiful website, Facebook, holiday decor, constant promotions through email, and collaborations with local business). From massages to facials, to everything in between the staff has never failed to impress me. Every and all members of staff are always very delightful to deal with and are all pretty knowledgable on all questions. If you are looking for a place that has nothing but the upmost stress free atmosphere, the highest quality services, and the friendliest staff of any spa around this is your place. I'll definitely continue to be a patron of this amazing spa.

Never AgainBy michelled | January 18, 2011

This used to be a really nice mid level spa - not anymore. New ownership has really changed things. Took a friend for a post divorce massage, & not only was the massage mediocre at best (that I can live with, everyone has to learn) - but there was NO HEAT in the place! It turned on at the start of my massage, never came on again. I asked my therapist to go and check on this as my body was ice cold, and she got it turned back on (after asking the owner's permission, I could hear through the wall) - not that it saved the rest of the massage! Then you meet the owner at the front desk. She asked how it was, & I told her that it was deplorable to have people undressed & to turn off the heat! She looked at me, and then said "but it's on", I agreed it was because I had to REQUEST IT! She then said "well the table has a warmer"- people, it was 30 degrees and raining outside! She then completely ignored what I had just said, no apology, ran around the desk to go get some gift certificates and tell me that they were having a sale!! Needless to say, I didn't buy any! The rest of her staff looked unsurprised and mortified by this behavior. WILL NOT BE BACK!! But maybe if we go, she can afford to pay the gas bill......

Don't go with high expectations....By Spagirlr | October 22, 2009

49 of 86 People Found This Review Helpful
If your looking for a quick pick me up this is the place.
If you are looking for a day of pampering and pleasure go else where.
First lets start at the receptionist who I later found out is also the owner or co-owner. She has the personality of a porcupine. I thought for a moment I was signing up for a military draft not a massage and pedicure.
My pedicure was outstanding.. better than ones at high end salons in Vegas. You will need to get past the cramped quarters and feeling horrible for the technician's work area.
My massage was delightful. The technician was overly chatty but she was skilled and talented. To be honest she made up for the rigid owner who looked at me like I was nothing more than a dollar bill.
Keep in mind the walls are paper thin... you hear everything and anything going on in the room next to you.. on BOTH sides... so that kind of kills it for me as well.
My friend and I joked at one point about wanting a mimosa and the owner jumped all over us lecturing about how your body reacts to alcohol and massages.. It was sureal, I felt like I was 5 years old.
Again, if you don't have time or don't want to wait 2 months for a spot in a high quality establishment, this is your place. If your looking to be treated like a guest and a queen this is not the place for you....

Relaxation!!!By Cathyann | December 1, 2007

I had the pleasure of finding this little gem through a gift certificate I received. What can I say? You walk into the back door of this little house and immediately feel relaxed; soft music, soft colors and just a feeling of calm. I found the staff to be pleasant, attentive, willing to answer any questions you might have about products or services and just overall, it was a wonderful experience. I recently sent my husband for a facial and he just raved about the technician and the experience all day long. And, after reading the prior comments about the receptionist; I found no problem, she was so very nice and accommodating. Don't pass this experience up!!

The outside of this spa does not do justice to what you will find within.
It looks like a little house set back off the road, very unassuming. However, you will be pleasantly surprised by the charm and the coziness once you enter the spa. I went several times on a gift certificate and found all staff, including the receptionist, to be warm, welcoming and very professional. The massages will leave you unable to remember your own name. The nail tech takes her time and pampers you. The facial I had left me wanting to stay forever, and I glowed afterward.
Don't miss this little oasis off the Watchung Circle!

Overall a great spa experience-By LiveWell | April 5, 2007

29 of 59 People Found This Review Helpful
The massage and spa pedicure were fabulous! The massage was relaxing and quiet! Not a word heard from nearby rooms! The spa pedicure was super and worth the wait! The technician spent time and energy to ensure I was satisfied. The focus was on me. I was disappointed when leaving by the treatment given to me by the receptionist at the front desk. She was rude and snotty with me. This was not how I wanted to end my experience there. The services within the spa were great. If they could improve upon their customer service, it would help their clients to leave with a smile, rather than a bitter taste. I'll have to try for Sunday next time, as another review noted.

The massage was great. They don't have a relaxation room and when I got the body treatment I had to walk to another room to shower. My girlfriend got a facial there and she said it was so so, but I had a nice time. The ambiance just isn't there for me

Great atmosphere but sometimes bad receptionists..By TaniaB | March 29, 2006

The services are great and they often run specials which lures me in time and time again. In general, the staff is very professional, but the receptionists can sometimes ruin the experience. I know the secret now, go in on a Sunday, it's the day the nice receptionist is there and they're not that busy.
