Best

the massages ive gotten are real good. i've even tried a facial, but i really like the massage. the staff tried to get me to have a pedicure, but that's not really my thing.

Worst

disgusted by the way clients are treated. are forced to buy products that are not needed. appears that all this spa is interested in is money, and not a relaxing environment for...

The Absolute Best Spa Experience 3/6/2009

I had given up on things like facials. I found the spas a little too self-aware and the staff kind of vacuous. Not to mention the insane pricing. And waxing? It has to be done, but I was rarely ever happy with how artificial my eyebrows looked. Spa3000, in Chestnut Hill, changed my mind. More specifically, Kate Brown there did. The place is beautiful without being intimidating. The staff is fantastic! Warmer and more human than a lot of the robots usually employed from the reception desk to your skin care specialists, and quick to tell you if the services you are getting can be packaged in a way to make it more economical. In this day, particularly, that is very much appreciated. Kate is a dream, and when I walk out I look great and feel great, and my eyebrows look neither like caterpillars nor Barbie draw-ons. The complimentary and wonderful teas, the great nail services, it's all makes for a truly great experience. Pros: Great staff, excellent services, serene but not snobby environment more

Poor Quality 3/4/2009

Was so looking forward to trying a new place and getting a relaxing massage. Unfortunately, I got nothing close to that. I got rushed for my massage and the masseuse was very poor and not skilled at all. Pros: Close by Cons: Poor quality and little value more

Horrible treatment and service 3/3/2009

Made an appointment for my husband and I. We were given our massages only in 40 minutes, not what we paid for which was 50 minutes. When I talked to the manager, she was unprofessional and rude. I left a message for the owner who never responded but had someone else do it. In speaking to this individual, it was clear that the unprofessionalism is rampant. Will never go there again. Pros: Friendly appointment desk Cons: Horrible staff and services more

Poor Service 9/30/2008

I attended a recent event at the Wayne location. When I originally telephoned for the required event appointment, I was told 'you have the first appoitnment'. I was delighted and the first to arrive for the event . However I was not the 'first' appointment. When I questioned the Spa Director I was told that the other client (who arrived after me) 'also has a 6pm appt'. Excuse me? A double book even though only one scan machine? The Spa Director just faked smiled and just rudely turned and walked away from me. Then after my scan, mini facials were offered. There were three chairs in place for the service. One woman was already being serviced and the other two chairs were empty. So I took a seat in the middle chair but was never approached for a mini facial, even though another woman sat in the remaining chair after me and was then immediately given a mini facial service! So I waited a little while longer but still no Spa Director or staff approach to make sure I was being serviced. So I just awkwardly got back up and out of the facial chair. The atmosphere in general was disorganized and cold. And some staff members seemed distant and tense. I would not recommend this place to anyone that desires a genuine caring and sincere pampering Spa experience. Don't waste your money! like I did. Pros: Location Cons: Disorganized, some unfriendly and uncaring staff considering the type of business more

Wonderful Massage 9/11/2008

I finally tried out 3000BC after reading reviews online. I have chronic back pain and massage helps me tremendously, but my usual therapist recently moved away. I had a massage with Andrew and let me tell you, it was the best experience of my life. He was extremely personable, knew the body well and the massage was like heaven. Request Andrew if you're getting a massage, you won't regret it! Very friendly staff, down to earth, well worth it! Pros: Very Good Massage Cons: Noisy facialists more

two for two 5/12/2008

i go to the wayne location for massages. this weekend i couldn't get a massage because they were booked in wayne, but the staffer offered to send me to chestnut hill. Pros: great massage Cons: no steam room here. more

I Loved IT! 5/5/2008

I must say that I was very impressed by the services and the whole look of the place. I have been to Toppers before and I had a not so great experience and it was way to cold in the facility. Anyway I love the choice of teas that they offer you in the waiting room and snakcs was very nice. I spent a full day at the Spa and they even feed me lunch. The staff was friendly and very helpful. I would recommend anyone to this spa. Also take cash for the tips. more

A terrific experience!! 10/1/2007

I recently visited the spa, I'd never been there before so I didn't know what to expect. It turned out to be better than I thought. I was immediately put at ease by the courteous and attentive front desk staff. I was scheduled for a massage and a facial. The massage therapist Lilla and the esthetician Ann Marie were excellent. When I arrived I was kind of stressed, but Lilla's strong, capable hands worked every kink out of my body. She was very professional with a pleasant demeanor. I then went to Ann Marie for a facial. She customized the facial based on the needs of my skin which I really liked. My skin was left revitalized and glowing. When we were done she took me to a quiet room to relax and have tea, no pressure or hurrying around. It's not always easy to find great, caring therapists but if you don't go to 3000bc and see Lilla and Ann Marie for your treatments you are missing out. Pros: fantastic therapists, beautiful environment more

More stress than relaxation 9/29/2007

I never write reveiws but I believe my experience today warrants this. I observed several appointment errors concerning other clients just in the period of time I sat in the waiting area. Not to mention that I arrived to my appointment 10 minutes early but was notified 25 minutes later that my waxing service could not be rendered because the wax was not ready since the warmer had not been turned on that morning and I'd have to come back later in the evening or another day. I found that to be very irresponsible and unprofessional. I made my appointment 2 weeks in advance AND I was not the first appointment that morning. The staff apologized but did nothing to remedy the situation appropriately. Asking me to come back in 6 hours or the next day is not a solution especially when I live in another state. The facility was goregous but the staff is very questionable...you may want to request someone other than Annamaria if you're still brave enough to want to go there. My friends have all canceled their standing appointments. more

the best facial ever 4/15/2007

i received a spa finder gift card for my birthday, i noticed that 3000bc accepted them. i'm a spa junkie and have been to many spas in the us and europe. i had a facial with kate at the 3000bc in chestnut hill. i've never had an esthetician be so professional. my skin was glowing when i left. do your skin a favor and go to kate. Pros: great facial, staff was top notch, the spa is so beautiful more

Like Heaven, Great Service, Top-notch therapists 1/15/2007

I recently visited this spa and was amazed by the excellence. The place is gorgeous with lavish bronze and black. I was greeted with smiles when i first walked in. I was escorted to a relaxing tea lounge. The tea area is pleasant and I was offered a large selection to try. The massage was fantastic! My therapist really was concerned about my back problems.The front desk was friendly and really offered me help when I asked about products. . A total top-notch experience! I wasn't surprised either when i heard they have won several best of philly awards. Excellent! Pros: great therapists more

What a waste of time and money 11/26/2006

I had heard some mixed reviews about this place,but I have to admit I'm stubborn. So I made the mistake of going here and what a waste of time. The therapists were just 3rd rate,the place looks nice but the prices,parking and staff are just terrible. Cons: terrible services,no parking and bad attitude more

Bad waxes, nice atmosphere, bad hours 11/6/2006

RANTS: Pros: atmosphere Cons: hours, low bikini wax quality more

Very nice and great services 9/22/2006

This is a true Spa 8/5/2006

This is what I have been seraching for. I had a horrid experience at another place nearby and then our friends suggested 3000 b.c. The staff was quite friendly,the services were excellent and everything about this place made us smile. more

What a joke 8/3/2006

Save your money! Unskilled manicurists, cheap products, lousy service. Go to any regular nail shop and you will have a better job done. Worst manicure of my life! more

aahhh... 5/1/2003

Took my mom here for a 1/2 hour massage. She said it was the best massage she's ever had and I thought mine was excellent as well. Very small treatment area which also means that it is very calming since there aren't many people around. You do have to walk down the street from the store/registration to the treatment area - glad we were there on a beautiful day. All staff were extremely helpful and added to the great experience! more
