The massage was painful, the therapist did not have ideas of what muscles she was touching and the range of strokes was very limited. I am a massage therapist myself so I can recognise the difference from a targeted massage to a terrible one. This one was terrible - sorry!
The massage was average - didn't feel relief or soreness after. Ashanti kept repeating the same strokes along my spine. It felt like she was using blind force to dig into my shoulder blades and left identical bruises on both sides. There's pressure, and then there's injury. Didn't understand the focus on my underarms and inner thighs (no muscle there). The massage room had an open, uncovered window. She never asked how the pressure was or if I had problem areas, just went to work. Not for me.
I went in on a Saturday, so it was very quiet, which I enjoyed. Ashanti was fantastic and worked silently while meditative music played in the background. It was exactly the type of relaxation I needed!
