Wow! Amber at Omra Bodywork is amazing! This was the best massage that I have had in Asheville…read more Her studio is comfortable and has great ambience. The location is close to downtown and has it's own parking area. I went to Amber because I was having some intense neck pains. She spent almost the entire hour working on that part of my body trying to help relieve the pain. I really appreciated how she went back and forth between using hot and cold temperatures and she seemed very present during the whole massage. She used a nice pressure and seemed to be very in tune with my body and my muscles. I felt SO much better after the massage and was completely relaxed. I can't wait to go back again.

My review in short: Omra gave me the best massage I've ever had and offers a great value…read more -------------------- I'm not a person that pampers themselves regularly, but when I feel my body starting to break down with strange aches and pains I typically whine about it until my wife urges me to go see a masseuse. I had exhausted all of my groupon options for cheap(er) massages and I took to Yelp to find a great local body work practitioner. Omra was a page back, but I really liked the sound and look of the place so I decided to schedule myself an appointment. Amber, my masseuse, scheduled me an appointment within three days of my call, which I'm sure you know around here is a big deal, some places are booked out for weeks ahead of schedule. She was willing to fit me in on the end of one of her standard scheduled days, so I was grateful before I even stepped foot through the door. Omra is located at a great space with an actual parking lot. Man, that is awesome. Up a couple of flights of stairs in a large shared building and you enter a magically relaxing room. It's cozy as cozy can be. It doesn't feel sterile, it feels loved, and well maintained. There's decorations all around the room that give this place a homey charm. It's like being invited into someone's house. Thoroughly relaxing. I'd love to give you the play by play of my 75 minute massage, but the fact is, it kind of knocked me out. I was put into this kind of weird half awake half dream state, where the massage felt like the longest, and most brief thing that has ever happened. The amount of pressure was perfect, even when I thought I wanted a bit more pressure to work out some sort of knot or twist I felt within my muscles I felt them relaxing and easing up. Super pleasant. I can't say enough nice things about Amber and Omra Bodywork. Truly. I've always ping ponged between places offering groupons, which I'm sure were a way to get me in the door of many of the spas, sanctuaries, and massage houses here in Asheville, but I never felt connected to them. Their rates without the groupon were well out of my budget. However, my full priced treatment at Omra was only slightly more than I've spent on deals at other places in the past, including the tip! I don't look forward to the next time that I need a massage, but at least I feel confident knowing that I have a prefered source of aid and relief when I do.

Both my friend and I traveled to west asheville (about 10 mins by car from downtown) this was a great find and according to my friend the best thai message she has had It combined a few additional massage types with her to work on some probem areas working with pressure points and my tight muscles. Carrie has a great presence, open, intuitive, graceful and strong. This was much more than getting stretched with help as I previously thought Target points hit, problem areas addressed. The building is a house that has other tenants such as counselors, chiropractic ect not a spa - this was good since sometimes the spa thing overdone. Felt like I had a great experience and would recommend highly. Carrie's business is fairly new but she is very experienced and professional. This will be a stop on my next visit and will recommened it to friends visiting and I few connections I have there. Found Carrie on Yelp actually.

I found Bodhi of Life through a Groupon promotion. I have had quite a bit of bodywork done in my…read morelife, and was curious about Thai Massage. The promotion was for three sessions, so it was a gamble that I had never been to see Ms. Carrie Spencer and signed up for three sessions. It was a hunch I had that she would be great, and as it turned out, she totally is! I have had my three sessions and intend to go back for more in the future. The location is easy to get to, there is parking, the space is quiet and serene and the temperature is good and adjustable. She does Thai massage, therapeutic massage, Rieki, cranio-sacral, and sometimes a bit of everything, depending on your needs. She is intuitive with her work, but communicates well, making sure she is meeting your needs. In a land where you can't throw a yoga teacher without hitting a masseuse, Bodhi of Life stands above.

If you want a great massage from a stellar group of people I can't recommend Relax & Rejuvenate enough!

I'm echoing the other great reviews to say that Kelly is THE BEST FACIALIST IN ASHEVILLE (and maybe…read morebeyond?). I've been getting facials from Kelly for 20+ years -- mostly at a previous salon-- and like another reviewer, I tracked her down after she left that place during COVID. Kelly is a total pro and her facials are absolutely transcendent. You will be transported to another dimension as she works wonders on your face, neck and chest skin. All the while, she's giving incredible deep-tissue massage. Her facials are surprisingly vigorous, almost like she's performing a modern dance, but you'll be blissed out while she's working hard. Treat yourself and buy the full 90-minute experience; you won't regret a minute of it. Also, don't be turned off by the modest strip-mall exterior of this little gem. Once you're inside, you will be comfy and cozy.
