After years of loyal, respectful visits every two weeks - always tipping 20%+ - I was shocked by…read morehow I was recently treated. I missed an appointment, which I had clearly stated I intended to pay for at my next session. But when I arrived and greeted my therapist, I was stopped at the front desk and told I couldn't go back until "this was taken care of." I was made to stand there while they charged me for both the missed session and the one I hadn't even had yet. It was awkward, cold, and humiliating. Despite all my consistency and support, I was treated like a flight risk. I was made to feel so uncomfortable that I walked out and didn't even stay for the massage I had just paid for. When I reached out to management to explain how upsetting the experience was, the response I received was brief and dismissive. I've since canceled two months of future appointments and requested that my card be removed from their system. Roxanne is a truly wonderful massage therapist, and this review is in no way a reflection of her work. But the way this situation was handled by management was deeply disappointing. There's a lot to work on in how they treat loyal clients and communicate policies. I would have preferred to leave a better review - but this experience left me no choice.

Tea shop that's part of it is also very cute snd had any type of teas you could imagine. The massages were relaxing. Note: verify pricing. The package was listed on their website cheaper than what they charged us when we checked out. **Covid alert** The staff did NOT wear masks in the shop or while we got our massages or facials. We are VERY careful everywhere we go with making sure we are doing all to keep ourselves and others safe. There was zero attention to safety here and sadly because of that we will not be able to return unless there are major changes to their Covid safety policies.

Ok, so since I was given a gift certificate for two massages, I decided to give Serenity another…read morechance, even though my previous review was a poor one. When we arrived, another tea party was in full swing (flashback to previous review) but at least this one was for adult ladies. So, the massage was very nice, and we decided to have a cup of tea. I had just done my Yelp check in, commenting on the tepid tea I had been served, when a spa worker who looked exactly like Thomas P (see his biased review of Serenity - only one review in two years - so suspicious) saw me Yelping. He asked me about Yelp, like he had never heard of it (yeah, right!) and I said Yelp was great for finding peer rated businesses, etc. He walked away after and I thought that was over... was I ever wrong! Evidently, he went into the back office and pulled up my review of Serenity. Next thing I know, the owner comes out surrounded by all her waitresses. She began to berate me for my last review 10 months ago. Says my review was damaging to her business and was impacting her waitresses, all of whom were mothers (not sure why that was relevant). She also said that if I didn't like her place, I should get out and not come back. How unprofessional! If her business is getting bad reviews, maybe there is a real fundamental reason. Maybe it is her temper and tendency to ask paying customers to leave and not come back. The owner is a bigger problem than a bad review. Funny enough, without the owner incident, I probably would have given Serenity a better rating than I had previously. After all, gift certificate notwithstanding, I spent $75.00 there for a coffee pot and dry teas. Still, all in all, I could not in good conscience recommend this business to anyone. Folks, give this place a miss.

Absolute Lifesaver! Highly Recommended. I cannot recommend…read moreAlicia Hunt and The Sore Spot Massage Therapy enough! My husband, George, was in the emergency room with severe back pain, and Alicia completely stepped up for us. She saw him on an emergency basis and managed to fit him into her schedule on the very same day. Alicia is incredibly skilled, deeply knowledgeable, and a true professional. What stood out the most was her compassionate care. She took the time to listen intently to everything George had to say about his pain. As she worked, she gently explained exactly what she was doing every step of the way, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her technique and expertise provided the critical relief he desperately needed. If you are looking for a massage therapist who truly cares about your well-being and knows how to treat acute pain safely and effectively, look no further than Alicia. We are so grateful for her help Thank you Jan & George

There was no consultation, she didn't engage in much conversation, and it was clear my intake form hadn't been read. Even when I mentioned my tight hips/psoas several times, she didn't adjust. I actually found this place by reading Google reviews and decided to take a chance, so I was disappointed that the session felt generic. Gary, the owner, reached out afterward, apologized, and explained what went wrong. He offered a complimentary 60‑minute session tailored specifically to my concerns, and I went in today. The difference was immediate. Gary was knowledgeable, conversational, and focused exactly on my tight psoas/hip area. He understood the issue from a workout perspective and customized the entire session to what my body actually needed. I now feel confident I've found someone who will truly tailor the massage to my concerns, and I'll be making another appointment soon. I appreciate the follow‑up and the effort to make things right.
