A Touch of Inspiration
Massage and Foot Treatment May 26, 2012 | 1 of 1 people found this review helpful
While on business in Cooper City, I treated myself to a massage and foot treatment. It was a good experience, a way to relax. The staff was respectful, and I left satisfied. However, I can agree with some of the reviews that spa isn't in a typical location. Instead, the area feels a bit sterile, because it's a building with office suites.

Worth the trip into NY February 28, 2012 | 28 of 56 people found this review helpful
My family lives in NJ and when I last visited, I stopped in at A Touch of Nirvana. Great service, lots of service variety, and a relaxing, tranquil environment!

Better location October 12, 2012 | 1 of 1 people found this review helpful
The new location is way better-more room to get around. The old location had way too much traffic in a small lot, near Dash and the Post Office. Same good service, same or similar prices. Love my monthly massages!

Decolletage Hydra Therapy July 29, 2011 | 73 of 138 people found this review helpful
I've tried this service and I really like it. It allows pampering on an area that doesn't usually get attention. The skin around my bust area feels fresh and renewed after getting the mask placed onto it. I just wish the $49 SpaFinder deal was offered to all clients, not just new ones. :/

LOVE AI SPA! June 29, 2011 | 75 of 146 people found this review helpful
I love visiting Ai Spa because they always offer some kind of special. Check their site or SpaFinder often, there's always something! If you frequent spas like I do, you know that multiple services can add up! Ai Spa not only offers specials, but a wide array of services. Parking is tricky-it might be best to go on a Sat afternoon, or Sunday, when the Post Office is closed and people aren't filtering in and out, or taking up 2 spots with their high-end vehicles.

Best Spa in Calabasas! April 29, 2011 | 71 of 143 people found this review helpful
I'm usually creeped out by and steer clear of medi-spas, but this is one place in which I'll make the exception. The spa is very clean and I love the decor. There is a wide menu of services, for the girl wanting a regular facial to her mom who might want to get botoxed up. Its location is private, and you'd miss it if you weren't paying attention-near Dash. Parking isn't the best, especially on weekends with people going in and out of the Post Office next door. But I like how the spa partakes in all of SpaFinder's promotions. Keep up the good work!

Just OK. June 29, 2011 | 15 of 28 people found this review helpful
The location is easy to get to, and the experience is satisfactory, but nothing mind-blowing. The prices are moderate; with that said, my hair is straight and very forgiving, so I can pribably get a cut of the same quality at Supercuts, for under $20. Figure out what you need or want, check out the prices at other establishments, and then make your decision.

Express Pedicure April 22, 2012 | 12 of 22 people found this review helpful
I got an express pedicure during one of my girls' days out. It was expertly done, and I felt comfortable the entire time. Amai is in a cute lil shopping center that's convenient to get to, and the technicians are very nice.

Came here for a facial after work one day. Loved it-the staff was friendly and I'd received a 10% early booking discount. What a treat!

I loved getting my eyebrows threaded at Anoo's. The technicians are as gentle as they can be, and they're quick and efficient. I had a mani from there, and I can report that the polish held up! Anyway, come here for threading!

Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, relaxing massage. Since there was no appointment after mine, I was given extra time, which I thought was very nice. Wish they were part of Wellness Week! :]

Nails nails nails! December 23, 2011 | 30 of 60 people found this review helpful
This place is great for manis and pedis-service is relatively quick and the nail staff is different than the spa staff. More personality and less time you have to deal with them. With the vichy shower I once had, my Korean technician had no personality and wasn't very warm or friendly. Jeez, at least try!!! Will come back to get my nails done, but not for spa treatments.

A Mediocre Experience October 17, 2010 | 40 of 89 people found this review helpful
I came here a few years ago. I purchased a holiday spa package for myself, my sister, and my mother. I was excited to try the services. However, I found the facial and seaweed body wrap to be a mediocre spa experience. The staff isn't friendly or outgoing. Maybe it's the language barrier? They're not particularly English speaking. Also, the tech left the room for a good while as my wrap stuff dried. It made me feel as though she was rushing to work on someone else before running back to me. And the tech's phone rang or vibrated (can't remember)-she then excused herself! The experience was just OK. I never went back after those 2 instances.

Good Variety November 27, 2011 | 14 of 25 people found this review helpful
This spa offers a variety of services and I happened to try a facial and a massage during Wellness Week. The spa is clean and parking is ample-some of the most important things I look for in a spa! The technicians are sweet and good at what they do. The front-desk girl wasn't friendly, making things awkward. Maybe SHE needed a facial and massage, to put a smile on her face!

Great Alternative March 25, 2012 | 7 of 12 people found this review helpful
Beach Beauty is a great alternative for spa-goers who might not be able to afford the opulence of other spas like the Mondrian or Canyon Ranch. The staff has a lot of experience, and they make it their goal to satisfy the customer. The prices are more reasonable than lots of places in Miami, and that's what attracted me to it. It wasn't about the size or art deco design of the spa, but the customer service and experience.

Missing Bells & Whistles November 27, 2011 | 25 of 51 people found this review helpful
I got a massage at Salon de Posh because it's local to me and easy to get to. While the massage was decent enough, the spa lacked the typical bells & whistles of other spas. Just saying! It affected the ambiance, but overall, it was an OK experience.

Not My Favorite Bliss. May 28, 2011 | 37 of 77 people found this review helpful
I love Bliss spas both in NYC and LA. I love the variety of services that are offered. If only the prices weren't so high-end, I could afford to go more often! :/ With that said, I was here for an Oxygen facial, and I really enjoyed it. The waiting room gets stuffy, especially on a Sat afternon. I should've gone earlier. Depending on who's at the front desk, they might act hoity toity. For the prices they charge, they can afford to have better customer service. However, the spa is close to the subway-really convenient! This is probably the main reason why I'll be back-it's close to my place of stay when I visit.
I would visit this business again? YesBliss Hollywood
Great Location!! April 30, 2011 | 45 of 89 people found this review helpful
I LOVE Bliss Spas the world over!! The first one I ever went to was in NYC. Anyway, like all other Bliss Spas, the Hollywood location offers a wide range of services to relax the habitually busy woman (or man). Location is stellar, in the W, and near the Metro. Prices are on the high end, but you come out feeling fresh and renewed. The decor is simple, minimal, and reminds me of arto deco SoBe. Enjoy!

A friend of mine living in Burbank suggested that I try out CC Skincare. I'm always down for trying new spas in the area, so I went along with her one Sat morning. Cheryl was gentle with my extractions and made some good suggestions about skincare products to combat my combination skin. I also enjoyed the paraffin hand wrap-always do!

While visiting my friend in her neck of the woods in HB, we went to CloudMover and took advantage of the current deal they have going on right now. With a pedicure, we got a free manicure! What a treat! All we had to do was mention code SpaFinder Splash! It was a really nice Girls' Day Out-we will come back the next time I visit HB! :]
I would visit this business again? YesColdwater Creek, The Spa in Simi Valley
Treat Yourself! June 29, 2011 | 23 of 54 people found this review helpful
Coldwater is my fave spa to visit when I'm with my family in Simi Valley. It's in a large shopping center, so parking is ample. You can basically spend the entire day there-go to the spa in the morning, eat, shop, etc. The prices here are a bit on the high side, but you get what you pay for-the quality is stellar. And they offer a wide array of services. I like trying a new one with each visit!

I visited Diva Day Spa with my sister as a treat for my birthday. I had a mani/pedi, which left my nails feeling clean, shiny, and happy! It was my first time there and I was amazed by the menu of services. I can't wait to try out the many facials that are offered! Love love love!

Love the O2 Facial! January 26, 2012 | 12 of 21 people found this review helpful
I love Eden, my favorite spa to visit when I come home to my family. This time I redeemed my Groupon, which essentially made the facial 50% off. Lauren was my technician and she was really good-not pushy, informative, told me what she would be doing next and why. I felt very relaxed, and at one point, dozed off!! My skin felt clean and hydrated aftewards-if only the facial could last longer than the 110 minutes!
Be careful if you purchase multiple Groupons for this spa. Yes, it's only one Groupon per customer, but it's possible to buy multiple and swap them with your friends. In essence, making each additional experience at the spa "a gift". Groupon allows you to buy 1 for yourself and 2 additional as gifts. The spa will only allow you to come once for the special, even if you get a gift from your sister, friend, etcetc. That's unfortunate. FORTUNATELY, Groupon credits you back for any unused certificates.

Best Local Spa October 17, 2010 | 12 of 31 people found this review helpful
For a woman needing a day of pampering, this is the place to go! They offer a variety of facials that most places don't have-green tea, honey, chocolate, etc. I tried the green tea and my skin felt tight and clean afterward. My tech gave me a hand massage and put my hands into warming mits-my hands felt soft all day! The tech is friendly, lets you know what she's doing each step of the way. You change out of your clothes in the treatment room. The place is small, yet clean. Due to its busy location, it can get noisy with people walking by, or cars and motorcycles whizzing past. Also, the waiting area is small and cramped, the snacks should be in jars instead of exposed to air and bugs that may fly in. But overall, this is the best spa to visit if you're local.

Mud Wrap May 26, 2012 | 8 of 13 people found this review helpful
I had a mud wrap at this spa a few years ago and I loved it! My technician was courteous and respectful, and described everything she would do, each step of the way. My skin felt fresh and glow-y when I left. A great treatment to combat the humid FL weather! Am going back to Ft Laud next month for vacation, will go back to the spa.
PS-this spa has been at is location for SEVERAL years now, so it must be doing something right! Love love love!

I'll be honest, I tried this spa because the name caught my attention (besides it being local to my residence). How cute is it? I'm glad I went in for a massage. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, and the massage is thorough. At one point, I almost fell asleep-that's how relaxed I was! I'll be back for another Fresh Squeezed Massage! :]

While staying in South Beach, I visited the IGM Day Spa-it was a short walk from my hotel on Collins Ave. I enjoyed my experience-it was fun, and different. I got a Brazilian wax and a mani-pedi, the normal part of my visit. What was interesting was the atmosphere. It's kinda cluttered, but fun cluttered? I wouldn't say it's like a "voodoo" lounge, just decorated in an interesting manner. I've never gone to a spa like it.

Loved My Facial! July 29, 2011 | 39 of 84 people found this review helpful
I got the Oxygen Facial recently and I LOVED it. My skin felt so soft and hydrated afterward. My only complaint is that it gets a little noisy, but the quality of the services make up for it. With regards to AO's review, that definitely puts a damper on my perception of the spa. I wonder if there was a glitch with their system? Or did she cancel on services at the last minute and therefore was charged the full fee? If not, what happened to her sounds shady. I'll remember to ALWAYS ask for and keep my receipt, just in case I need to dispute my charges later. :o

Good No-Frills Waxing October 17, 2010 | 37 of 71 people found this review helpful
I used to come here for my Brazilian waxes. I no longer visit because I've moved. However, the many times I DID visit this salon, I had good enough experiences. The waxers never really made conversation-I don't think they spoke English. However, they were warm and tried to make you feel as comfy as possible. They were quick and efficient as well. And I remember the price of a Brazilian wax to be reasonable against all the other local salons. The salon is a house with a dog grooming salon on the same premises. A bit odd, yes, but nevertheless, the place is clean and I never left unhappy.

This was the first time I've ever had my eyebrows and lashes tinted, so I don't really have a point of reference. However, I CAN say that the staff treated me with the utmost respect and really made me feel pampered. As the tint was applied, I was told step-by-step what she was doing. I'm really happy with the service, and the tint held for quite a while! Try it out! :]

I would visit this business again? YesMassage Envy - East Brunswick
Massage On The Fly April 29, 2011 | 19 of 32 people found this review helpful
Massage Envy is the McDonalds of spas. It's a huge nationwide chain and a good place to get a massage or facial if you need one on the fly. By that, I mean if you can't get an appointment at a more favored spa of your choice. They always welcome walk-ins, but then you run the risk of getting the "frat boy" therapists referenced by an earlier reviewer. She may have made an appointment, but either way, I feel bad for her! You go for a relaxing experience, not for a humiliating one! With that said, I'd go back because the prices are reasonable and I love the Murad products that they use and sell.
