Not sure if the Tiffany I saw here is still around. Her days were reduced to a day and then I call for her, on her only day, and get, she's not here yet. So, I wait a day and schedule to see Lily. I've come to rely on Lily to be here on Mondays and deliver a good massage. Lily is someone who once familiarity is established she can begin to discern where the pain is emanating from and deliver relief thru her skilled and trained hands. However, this past Monday, when I called and set an appointment with Lily and then arrived I was told she hadn't arrived yet. Same story was told with regards to Tiffany a while back. Tiffany and Lily, two very capable masseuses.
Since I was already in the door and in need of relief, I didn't want to leave but I had no experience with anyone else here other than Tiffany and Lily. Angela noticed that I was a little out of sorts and said: I could wait for Lily, go with a new recruit or let Angela give me the massage. No doubt Angela can give a good massage since she likely grew up in the business. But, before I could answer, Angela said that she specifically brought in the new recruit, the apprentice, as Angela had heard good things about her pressure point massage and deep pressure Acupressure treatment that seemed to provide relief to chronic pains that are so prevalent in her customers. This sounded just like just what I needed.
With images of Lily driving thru now overcrowded roads to try and get to work, I decided Lily, if I decided to wait for her, would be a bit harried to really focus on me. And, if I went with the apprentice, it would be a good will gesture and Angela would surely remember it on future visits.
The new recruit emerged and asked what she could do to help. We had a brief discussion about past treatments and the excellent work Lily and Tiffany both did. She knew she had a difficult mountain to climb. But, she exuded confidence in her ability to not only measure up but exceed Lily and Tiffany. Angela was listening and she looked surprised.
As the massage began, I could tell the apprentice was trying to figure out where the tightest muscles were and where she should begin. A good masseuse will evaluate, decide how much time it will take to do it right, effectively providing adequate treatment to areas that need it most while balancing the remained of the time to massage the rest. Although I drew the newbie this time, she must have undergone some rigorous training as she sure knew how to give an awesome massage.
I complimented her on her skills and strength and said I was amazed she was so good given she just started. She said, she just started at this spa, but had worked at other spas before. Angela did a good job in locating and recruiting talent. read more
