I brought my sister here for a birthday spa day and we are leaving here happy, refreshed and…read moretreated like royalty. We walked in this morning, about 1.5 hours before our appointment, because as a client you are able to use the whirlpool before of after your services at the Spa, and We wanted to take fill advantage of that! We were greeted warmly and brought to the dressing room which is beautifully decorated. Calming music is quietly pumping through the surround sound which INSTANTLY has you feeling blissful before your sessions even start. We were given robes, slippers and keys to the lockers to secure our belongings. We spent about 40 minutes in the whirlpool, then went back into the spa to shower before our appointment. When we were robed again, we went through a door to the "sanctuary", which is a beautiful sitting area with comfy chairs and couches next to a fireplace. They also offer a serve yourself tea and snack bar. I literally has the BEST cup of tea ever. It is called "Evening Comfort" I HIGHLY recommend having that when you are here. One of the things I love about this spa is their spa packages. It is a combination of different services, for an extremely fair price. Ex- massage, facial, mani and pedi... or massage facial, foot soak.. This is my fourth time taking advantage of them. And each visit has been five stars! Each service we had today was comfortable, professional and exactly what I. Had hoped for. We were able to meet Sue, the owner, who is an absolute delight to chat with. Very down to earth and personable. Really, All the staff i've come in contact has been this way. I left feeling both relaxed AND energized... didn't even know that was possible. But it totally is! I cant wait to come back and pamper myself again.

I admit it: I'm the type of reviewer who only writes these when service is truly outstanding or…read morenoticeably poor. Do with that what you will. That said, sadly this falls on the 'noticeably poor' end of my Yelp spectrum. Specifically, I feel it necessary to caution anyone wanting to get a salon service in Appleton to look elsewhere. It began when I made the appointment. The receptionist was noticeably unfriendly and rude. I don't live in the area anymore, so I'm fine with bluntness, but this very much felt like the receptionist was mad at me for even making an appointment. I chalked it up to the service industry being hellish right now and--because I was there for my sister's wedding and to see my best friend (who I hadn't seen in a year)--I agreed to pay the up-charge for the Friday/weekend appointment (believe it was around 15% more). At the time of my appointment, we were told to arrive early. We did, but it was unclear for what reason. The entire salon/spa area seemed like a forgotten space in the basement of this hotel (only two people were working that day). Think: old salon products on dusty shelves, askew chairs, open doors with cleaning supplies. We didn't fill out any paperwork and the woman doing our nails was actually running behind on a wax appointment, so we waited around for about 20 or so minutes. My friend and I each picked out a single color from the lackluster, minimal selection, still with high hopes. We talked to kill time until our manicurist arrived and began. However, about halfway through my pedicure, she got a phone call and left to attend to personal business--asking if we wanted water (we said yes, but it never came). Once the manicurist returned, she finished my pedicure and then my friend's manicure. After the weekend rate and 20% tip (because I'm not a monster), I probably paid around $250 for the manicure and pedicure service. Cut to the next day (my sister's wedding) and my friend and I both realize that our manicure and pedicure actually...aren't even complete? My friend's manicure was missing coats and had blank areas on her nails, and my pedicure (upon further inspection) was very light to be almost see-through (it was blue)--as if she forgot one coat as well (which would make sense since she was running behind; our appointment ran so long because she left halfway through). While I've heard good things about getting a massage here, I caution against booking any salon service. For nails, go literally anywhere else (I've heard even the place in the Fox River Mall is solid). The only reason I gave it one star (beyond the fact I had to) was because I'm assuming (since I haven't seen any problems) the utensils were at least clean and the manicurist was nice, even if she wasn't the best.

I'm a big guy but I don't like deep tissue massages usually because I feel like I end up with more knots than when I started. Thai massages are usually great because it's lots of pressure but with firearms instead of finger tips. They asked to pay upfront, which seemed weird. But it was a great massage. And I've had actual Thai massages in Thailand, and this was as good if not better. I was shocked. Will definitely go again.

I have had nothing but wonderful experiences seeing Amanda at Balanced Being. We always establish…read moreexpectations before the massage as to what I am looking for that specific day. I range from relaxation to deep tissue and no matter which I choose my needs are always met. The new space is lovely, clean, and inviting. Her room is always kept extremely organized and you can tell it is cleaned thoroughly between each appointment. I typically do a 90 minute and recommend that to everyone. 60 minutes always feels too short personally. If I ever want something done differently I have no problem asking her to do more/less during the massage and she is always compliant with whatever I may request. I enjoy easy, pleasant conversations with each massage. On the off chance I don't feel like chatting that day she always seems to read the room and let me be. I enjoy the ease of being able to book using text rather than calling (you can also call). I highly recommend trying Balanced Being!

While I've had other good massage experiences at other places, it's a lot more personable and accommodating at hands on. Pricing is reasonable and scheduling is generally easy. if anything comes up Kortney is great at trying to make accommodations for cancellations or reschedules. You do have to book far in advance - which I imagine is a testament to how good the service is. If you're looking for a random immediate, one-off massage I'd recommend looking at places that cater to that clientele. If you are planning semi-regular, consistent body work then this is a great option.

The Harmony Wellness Center was conveniently located in the middle of Oshkosh, and they promptly responded to my appointment request. The center is very nice - very relaxing environment. Jeanie greeted me with a some water and did a quick evaluation to see how she could best help me. I pulled a couple muscles at the gym, and she did a really great job working through the knots. She's clearly a very experienced massage therapist - her tempo, precision, and effectiviness are consistent with top massage therapists I've worked with over the years. She communicates really well too. I'll definitely come back to work with her again.

On my initial call the message said she was on vacation. I waited one week and called on a Monday, received no return call, so on Wednesday, I left another message asking if she was taking new clients (my therapist retired.) Again, I received no call. I then left a message at the contact number for Harmony Wellness. You guessed it--NO RETURN CALL!! If they can't even return a phone call, I am wondering how reliable this business would be. I will give my money to a provider who cares about their clients.
