This spa has only been in business for about two months, and my wife and I partook in a couples Swedish massage. I didn't catch anyone's name, but it seems like Mark was most likely my masseuse based on reviews here and on Google. He is definitely skilled at his trade. He was putting the right pressure, and it was extremely relaxing with the nice elevator music and massage oils on top. Very clean place and he was very welcoming and cordial and would make sure you were enjoying yourself throughout the service. The business is located in mediocre looking strip mall in Durham, which gave us some hesitancy, but don't let that sway you. This is probably the place my wife will come back to when she craving some R&R

I met Sheilah several months back when I booked her with a Groupon. Being new to town, I didn't…read moreknow who to trust for a massage and decided to take a chance with her, plus it was an excuse to check out Durham. Her "office" is in a gorgeous, tree-lined street with old homes that reminded me of my favorite neighborhoods in Austin. The home she works out of is a beautiful older home with lots of character and conducive to a peaceful experience. First off, she listened attentively to my issues and what I was and was not looking for in a RMT. She completely respected everything I said and got to work. It turned out we are both musicians, so we had a nice chat about that for one thing, and another was that she then understood the muscular and overuse issues I have. On a strictly personal note, I loved that she played more acoustic, Americana, folky music rather than the usual New Age jam that a lot of RMTs play. That is purely a personal preference of mine and I'm betting she can accommodate if that's what you prefer. Sheilah was definitely worth the drive from Cary for me.

Amazing massage!…read more After buying a Groupon for a 90-minute massage, I reached out to Sheilah to book an appointment. I was not sure what to expect, booking with a Groupon, but my experience was great! Sheilah called me back that day and booked me for an appointment within a week. I liked that she sent text messages to confirm and remind me about my appointment. Sheilah was even more wonderful in person. Her massage practice is located upstairs in a beautiful home. The room itself was peaceful, and comfortable, and had lots of natural night. Birds chirped outside the window. At the beginning of the appointment, Sheilah took some time to get to know me, and learn what I wanted to get out of the massage. Her approach was different than any massage I've experienced. When she started the massage, she offered some spoken words, like a yoga instructor, guiding me to a more relaxed place. I found myself following along, and breathing more slowly. As she continued, I started to let go and relax. The massage was like a restorative mediation. When I left, I felt better in my body than I had felt in months! The intense muscle tightness and aches in my neck and shoulders were gone, and a day later, I still feel the benefits. What an extraordinary massage experience-thank you Sheilah!

If you like deep tissue, acupressure, and a really grounding massage, this is the spot. If you've never tried ashiatsu, do it. What these folks do with their feet is amazing and I think it feels soooo much better than a massage with hands (broader, deeper pressure). I work at a desk and my neck, shoulders, back, and hips pay the price, so I see Jes monthly to work things out. She is so creative and changes her approach every visit, so it never feels like the same old thing. Plus, her head/face massages are her secret gems! She always listens to me and focuses on what I want, adds heat, has great music, and a calm manner. I truly can't get regular massages elsewhere anymore, Bull City Soles spoils me! Plus it's a great value for this amazing treatment.
