It is a posh, private clinic situated on Pollokshaws Road just along from Shawlands Arcade. It looks comfortable from the outside, and my friend tells me that inside is no different. For a considerable sum (said friend won't give exact figures or too many details - does her nose look different? I don't know..hmm), you will be soon have a consultation with a friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable member of staff. Your treatment will shortly follow along with excellent aftercare advice (and products, if need be). All in all, what you'd expect from a private clinic.

Meanwhile, it offers a very full list of beauty treatments from the full on -chemical peels, hair removal malarkey to semi-permament makeup to the usual massage like stuff. I've only ever had the pleasure of a full body, head and face massage here so can't speak up about the more intrusive procedures. But, from my massage experience, I'll bet they would be good quality and at a good price. My massage lasted a little over an hour and worked out at less than a pound a minute. Not bad. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to provide myself with this luxury very often but for a birthday or stress treat. It's ideal as a pick me up. For a reasonable fee you'll get quality treatments, in a nice environment and without having to travel into the city centre. The staff - from the receptionist to the masseur - were all very pleasant and efficient. Indeed, there were no constantly ringing phones in the background through out my treatment. Additionally, they also treat men and have a 'couples room' for joint treatments as well as a list of discounted couples treatment packages.

This is my local branch of the Ming Chen Clinics and the only one I've been in to date. Therefore,…read morethis review will be solely on my experiences here as opposed to other branches. Although, I am keen to see how the one on Woodlands Road measures up in comparison. Anyway, this is an acupuncture and herbalist clinic. It offers a range of treatments such as: acupuncture (obviously), Chinese herbal remedies, tui na (Chinese massage), reiki and spiritual medium services. They also claim to be able to help treat a range of problems like anxiety, asthma, depression, insomnia, stress and 'Women & Men's Problems'. I really do love this last one, but am a little confused as to what it means. Different problems to do with male and female genitalia? Sex problems between couples? Or just couple counselling sessions? Or do I just have a dirty, dirty mind?? Nonetheless, this is a good sized clinic which offers help with almost anything. I've been in here to have a few massages and have enjoyed them for a decent price. I have a friend who came here for reiki and really enjoyed it until she managed to creep herself out something awful. There's some big story about feeling more than two hands on her and how this was proof of spiritual guardians or something. I've also heard of a few friends coming here to help them stop smoking. Whatever, happened it actually seemed to work as well. Though, only for around three days to a week. Thus, I would say that the actual treatments and remedies can be very hit and miss depending on what they are and, of course, on what YOU expect them to do. However, in general terms it is a nice, clean, tidy clinic that offers a wide range of treatments and remedies. The staff are friendly and the prices decent. Worth a go, if there's something that catches your eye and you're not expecting miracle cures.

When I read about 33 Dowanhill on Yelp it sounded perfect, so I booked up asap. I was met by the lovely Joanna and she very quickly made me feel at ease. We initially discussed my current skin care regime and what I wanted to get out of my appointment. This was done in a really relaxed manner and I felt able to admit the cardinal sin - I use face wipes!!! Eek! I popped myself into the facial room, it was just heavenly. Beautiful décor throughout and the bed was extremely comfortable and heated, just bliss! The facial itself was amazing. Jo used a variety of products and techniques during the facial which left my skin feeling so fresh and soft. These included facial massage, lymphatic drainage and use of pressure point techniques which helps in reducing wrinkles and improves blood circulation. Bringing the facial to a close I received a lovely head massage. A few days after the treatment my skin was glowing and I decided to contacted Jo to request a product box. She devised a personalised prescription for my individual skin needs. This included products for an AM and PM regime, to help maintain and improve my current skin. She provided a detailed description of how to use each product; when and how much. I feel I have now turned a corner in my skin care regime and that's all thanks to Jo. I really trust her professional judgement on what products to use, and I now have the confidence (with her guidance) to deviate from the traditional high street brands. I was also surprised that these don't all come with a high price tag. I cannot recommend 33 Dowanhill enough. I had a wonderful experience from beginning to end. It has the most beautiful relaxed atmosphere, and you are certainly in very capable hands!

Joanna, the owner,…read morehas used a palette of warm and calming neutrals with elegant finishing touches to create a peaceful haven in Glasgow's busy West End. Joanna herself is a real pleasure to meet, and of course her skin is glowing. With no brand association, Joanna is free to choose the best products available on the market, allowing her to create a bespoke Signature Facial for you. The product range includes Merumaya, Pixi, Oskia, Ermana, Isla Apothecary to name a few. When it came to the facial itself we had a discussion about my skin, my main areas of concern, and what products she might use... As the facials are completely bespoke for each individual, there is an option for all products used to be natural - this is particularly useful for those who are trying to avoid all chemicals, for example, if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, for those with particularly sensitive skin, or for those with particular health reasons. The facial itself was pure bliss, just over one hour of facial massage, pressure point work, lymphatic drainage and head massage. I didn't want it to end but was looking forward to seeing what the results would be, as I have recently been finding my skin very dehydrated, and have noticed my fine lines around my eyes have been much more visible. Immediately after the facial my skin felt amazing, but was a little flushed following the massage. It was the next morning that I really noticed the improvement in the appearance of my skin. My skin was visibly more hydrated and smoother, and I definitely noticed an improvement around my eye area. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Joanna's Signature Facials. Even 1-2 weeks after my facial, I am still noticing an improvement in my skin compared to before my visit to 33 Dowanhill. I don't think I have ever noticed such lasting results following a facial before, and you can't beat the confidence that comes with good skin.
