I feel ripped off and wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

After driving 10 hrs to visit St. Albans, VT for the week and various (fun) activities while I've been here, I decided I was in desperate need of a massage. Empower Medspa fit me in for a 90 min deep tissue massage with Heather D. Let me tell you it was FANTASTIC! I'm a real spa and massage snob so I was hesitant to book at a medspa where massage really isn't the main focus. However, this massage was just what I needed! Heather was very knowledgeable of the pain and disc issues I had, as well as of the human body. She dug right in to my pain points and loosened my muscles significantly, it was a huge relief. She even had me turn on each side to really dig into spots that most massage therapists rarely touch. I highly recommend Heather and the Empower medspa!!

I was not offered water,tea,or coffee like other high end spa's offer actually almost every spa! On that note I'll finish this topic with saying I saw another customer given a glass of champagne, that would have been nice.My daughter enjoyed her swedish spa treatment. I had the longest message they offer the girl was extremely nice but I didn't enjoy her sticking her fingers in my ears or squeezing my lymph glands under my armpits! I actually told her how much it hurt and she did it again! To top this unusual treatment I have very curly hair and she kept going through my hair as If I had straight hair.If you have curly hair you know how painful this is.I ended up in pain for weeks from my underarms I had to go to the doctors twice! My word of advice is tell them straight out don't squeeze under your arm, don't stick fingers in your ears and just leave your hair and I would say scalp alone. I did enjoy the products I purchased.

It was so soothing & ethereal. I tried out the very cold, plunge pool multiple times since I have read of its ice cold "rejuvenating powers" & it certainly was invigorating. We also spent time in the Moroccan-themed pods, enjoyed the steam room (we skipped the sauna), the waterfall pool &, capped off our Zen evening sitting by the firepit, perusing the night sky for shooting stars. Although we thought that the obligatory tip added to our bill/reservation was a tad high, our evening of pools with their ubiquitous & strong jacuzzi jets, star/mountain & deer gazing & quietude (there is a dedicated "shhh" person who walks around, reminding folks to not talk) was worth the price. You will be supplied with terry robes & showers are available to rinse off as well as lockers, as well as a dining area. Enjoy your time here as we did!

I went to Balnea a couple of weeks ago for a girls weekend. The spa itself is stunning!…read more Unfortunately, when it came to the massage, it was one of the worst massages I've ever had. The masseuse was barely touching me and when I repeatedly asked him to put more pressure, he ignored my requests. I had to show him where my knots were and even with that he wasn't working on them . The room was also so cold that my extremities were absolutely freezing. Apparently they lost power for the morning which likely contributed to this. At check out, they offered everybody 50% off of their thermal bath experience due to the power outage. But when. I told the manager about my massage experience he basically gave me a stink face and said they can't do anything about it. overall, I'd give the landscape and the outdoor facilities 5/5, but the customer service and massage is what brought my review down to a 2/5.
