Had a really relaxing time here, massage was good, though a bit too hard pressure toward the end which was my fault for not telling the therapist to be more gentle. But the ambiance was fab and a good place to wind down and clear mind. I would come here again.
Treatment by Best Male Therapist•Aromatherapy Massage
I really wanted to give a 5 star rating because my massage therapist was lovely but I couldn't. Some parts of the spa and massage were a 0 star, some a 5 star.
I don't know why but I couldn't relax in the spa. Maybe it has to do with the interiors and space. I'm not sure.
The massage room was not cosy.
The massage did not feel great. I asked for more pressure but the therapist didn't increase the pressure. I think they were afraid they might break me as I'm small but my muscles were dead hard and needed the pressure!
The therapist concentrated on only one area of the body too and this was needed but I would've liked other tight muscles to have been massaged too.
The massage table was uncomfortable. Each time the therapist put pressure on me with their hands, the edge of the hole for the face would press in and dig into my throat. I've had many massages in other spas and countries and never ever experienced this same problem. I tried putting a pillow in between me and the massage bed but it wasn't comfortable. Maybe the size of the hole was too big or the spa hadn't covered around the hole properly.
The changing room is small, open, shared use, no privacy. The spa do not allow nudity but in the changing room nudity is forced on you as there are no cubicles! The usual contradictions and nonsense we find in society!
The changing room is on the ground floor, where you change into a short robe and then you walk down the stairs to the treatment room. I would've liked the changing room and treatment room nearby on the same floor.
There were no clocks anywhere and as I had to leave my belongings in the locker, I couldn't keep track of the time to check my massage lasted the full time I had paid for.
The price is expensive. I can get a better massage for less money more local to me.
Then again, after the massage I slept a lot better for 3 nights straight which hasn't happened when I've had massages in other spas! I give it 5 stars for helping me sleep better for 3 nights and 5 stars for the therapist being nice but less stars for everything else. If a massage helps me sleep better, is this a better massage than one which feels better at the time but doesn't help with the sleep?!
This review would not let me submit without rating the 3 listed treatments of aromatherapy, foot massage And Indian head massage but I didn't have any of these treatments. So given them all 1 star as I had to!
