How are there no reviews here?! I went to Captivating Tranquility today for my first time after buying a Groupon in the seemingly never ending search to find a great massage therapist. I won't make you guess, I'm incredibly pleased to have found Heather.
To start, it's not signed from the outside. But if you park and walk to the address, you'll see a sign immediately on the window directing you upstairs, above the salon. (There is an assist device for anyone who may need assistance or is unable to climb stairs).
The space is really pretty. Simple and well decorated and soothing from every angle. The entry way, the reception area and the massage room all flow nicely.
Heather was waiting at the desk and greeted me warmly as soon as I entered. She's great at making you feel welcome immediately. Her questionnaire is only one page (I strongly dislike the places that think they need 25 sheets of your medical information, elementary school grades, diagrams of your first car and a list of all US Vice Presidents since the 1920's) and covers the important stuff without being intrusive. My massage was catered to me and what I had asked. Heather did not speak after we began except to coach breathing or ask about pressure when working out a painful knot. My 90 minute massage was 90 minutes of hands on time, not 90 mins from entry to exit. She even spent a few minutes over trying to work one trouble spot all the way through. The table was comfortable and the sheets were clean and smelled great. She left me with a hot towel and met me in the reception area with a big glass of icy water. Despite her recommendation that I come back next month, I made an appointment for two weeks from today. She's too good to wait another month for. Like you should, I feel taller, looser and totally comfortable. Heather is amazing. read more
