I went to this day spa to receive a therapeutic massage for 1 hour. The ambiance was quaint and quite relaxing, very nice. I relaxed down on the table after waiting for a half-hour (the table was wonderful - padded, heated, extremely comfortable) and received my massage. It was a very nice massage, but perhaps I was expecting too much from a therapeutic, or deep-tissue, massage. To me, it felt more like a swedish. She did work into some muscles, but not deeply. I paid $85 for the massage (I had an old brochure which said it was less $ before I went - they upped their fees a few months ago, so make sure to check up on it), and am sure it was not worth it. Now, if you have money to burn and appreciate a nice atmosphere, perhaps it will be for you, but personally, when I receive a massage, I go for the massage. But the atmosphere was nice.
Pros: Relaxing, quaint ambiance with all the trimmings
Cons: Too much money for services not up to par.
