I went to this spa to try out a scalp and head massage. I was gifted the serenity retreat package and enjoyed the experience, but was a bit underwhelmed with parts of it.
The total package cost about $230 for a 2 hour session that included head, neck, scalp massage, hand massage, dry brush and shampoo, and gua sha face sculpting. It also included a sound bath and Chakra realignment as advertised in the package. Every portion lasted about 2 to 3 minutes, so just when you were becoming relaxed, she'd start a new piece of the package. As its in a salon, it was pretty noisy hearing the staff speaking with each other and alot of noise from the dishes being used.
I appreciated Mimi's customer service, but thought it was a bit lacking on a gentle touch. When she would move my head to rinse, it was an abrupt movement and basically pushed my head up to sit up rather than just guiding me. The massages were more like light rubs and again, only lasted about 2 to 3 minutes. The hot stone rub lasted about 2 minutes. The sound bath lasted 3 minutes and I dont even know if she realigned my chakras.
I felt as though there was too much involved in these packages to really help relieve stress or focus on one portion of the body. For the amount of money paid, I would have expected a bit more, but not a bad experience. read more
