For those with short attention spans: GO SEE GWEN if you want a DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE! Ignore the rough exterior and the imperfections in everything else because you will forget it all during the massage! For those of you who want to know about the whole experience: Ok, I am a spa junkie. I have a stressful job and deep tissue massages are about the only thing that get me through it. I also am a bit prissy and I luxuriate in the spa experience that I have gotten used to a resort spas. I have just moved to Gainesville & stress had again knotted me up. There are a number of negatives about this place, but the positives first: The staff is very nice & GWEN'S DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE IS AMAZING!!! Advice for spa: Get rid of some of the merchandise and make room for the clients and their drivers in front room. The changing area was small, but you did have good lockers, multi-sized shoes, and robes. You should add teas to your drink selection. The "relaxation" area was anything but. The seats were uncomfortable, requiring clients to sit straight backed against the wall. The "relaxation" room is too small & it is weird to have men feet from me when I am naked under my robe! Bottom Line: Ignore the negatives & give GWEN a try!!!
