I love Anastassiya! She and I share the same philosophy. "Beauty is pain. Pain is Beauty" You gotta hear it in Anastassiya's russian accent. It's killer!
I was lying down in the electric bed and we were discussing what machines, facial, massages, treatments I like. That day, I was there for an IPL photofacial, the not-so-secret, secret to porcelain almost spot free (but getting there) skin. Did you get that? Try saying it faster. LOL
We agreed on our philosophy. Yes we've both tried ayurvedic methods before and she said, "yes, you can pay me money. I can rub you for an hour and it will feel nice. But I want for you, results." (Did your mind go to a dirty place? I had to hold my giggles in when she said this.) But hallelujah. Yes sistah, we want results!!
While we were calibrating the laser for treatment. She said, "on a scale of 1 to 10. 1 being nothing, 10 is hurting. We need to be at an 8. We'll stop if you need to catch your breath but 8 is what we need." I thought i was working at an 8 but i think i can handle more next time. She almost seemed disappointed that I couldn't handle more. She was thorough, took her time and explained things as she went and asked how I was doing. Great bedside manner.
The Spa is quiet, well decorated, comfortable and very private. You won't see or hear much activity but there are other things going on in that space. Love the hushed environment and personal attention. read more
