Due to an error on Treatwell, The Lodge had not been notified of my change of appt time but Preeti came to the studio specially to fulfil the appt which was really appreciated. All the staff at The Lodge were lovely and it's a great space.
The room was clean and nicely decorated but there were a few things stored at the back of the room which made it look a little messy. It may be that this would normally be moved out but as they were not expecting me there was a rush to get the room ready. It was little cold too.
I've not had acupuncture before but Preeti made me feel comfortable and completed a full assessment before the treatment. She was very knowledgable and gave some good advice around different issues. I'm not sure I would have acupuncture again but that has nothing to do with Preeti or The Lodge, I just prefer other treatment modalities. I'd definitely return for other treatments.
I had a wonderful massage, and Steven was excellent. We had a really thorough consultation beforehand (which didn't eat into the treatment time - it was in addition to it!), where he asked what I wanted to get out of the massage, whether I had any issues and what my preferences were. This resulted in a really professional tailored massage, which was incredibly relaxing while also using some deep tissue techniques to work on some problem areas. Steven is really skilled, and was able to explain why my back/shoulders were feeling a certain way (and even discovered an underlying issue I didn't even know I had!). His advice was invaluable, his technique was absolutely brilliant and he's a genuinely lovely person. The space is really calming with beautiful furniture and a very serene atmosphere. I'd highly recommend The Lodge Space and Steven in particular - he even sent me a thoughtful followup email afterwards with further tips! Can't wait to come back.
