City Sweats has always taken my interest however Wallingford was always such a trip. I started doing to City Sweats a month or so ago and I adore it. The customer service is fantastic. The ambience and general vibe is lovely. The booths are clean and I love that you have so much space to yourself. They also have a larger sauna for a party of 4 (although I'm not sure if that's changed during covid phase) They have a kangen water machine and encourage you bring your own empty water bottle that can be filled with filtered water. Once your treatment is done, it's not home time, you get to go into the back where they have a relaxation room. They leave you a thank you note, an orange and some cold tea. It is truly divine.

The 90-minute massage was one of the best experiences I've had, and helped alleviate my discomfort and stress significantly. I appreciated how the therapist focused mostly on that problem area, but also left time for some full-body work. Planning to go back soon to continue working through my issues. The place is very clean, soft music and I felt very comfortable. The only thing I'd note is due to the layout of the rooms, I could hear another client ring the door bell and come in for their appointment. It didn't bother me at all, but if you're seeking a Canyon Ranch/hyper-pampered environment, this isn't it. But I was offered a bottle of water while leaving, a very nice touch.

If the top notch folks are fleeing then obviously management/leadership practices are declining.

This place looked legitimate every time i drove past it, i don't know the signs looked okay and…read morethey were 5 star on Yelp? So when i call to schedule an appointment, the woman answers "HELLO!" And i was so taken back i had no idea what to say... booked an appointment (i think), get there and it's just this random room. I yell down into the hallway "hello?" And this woman greets me, speaking ZERO English. Believe me, i do pretty well with language barriers, but i wasn't able to have a single fluid conversation with her. Once she leaves, i get onto the table and I KID YOU NOT - when i put my face in that little hole in the massage table i was looking down at 2 pairs of men's shoes and 3 quarters on the ground..... she proceeded to give me a one hour massage with ZERO LOTION in a silent room. No music, nothing. She yawned probably 15 times. Not even kidding it was the most painful experience, she was rubbing straight bone, at one point had her knee up on the table with me (for leverage? Idk) and when she repositioned my arm it brushed up against her phone that was sitting on the bed. Yeah. She was one hand massaging me/phone in the other hand? Idk. needless to say, was very VERY clear she was absolutely NOT a masseuse and had zero knowledge of where muscles are in a body (? Could that be possible?!?) i am more sore today than when i started out yesterday. Side note: Trust me, i have had a lot of massages and understand that sometimes it doesn't always feel like clouds and you can be sore afterwards. I am in PAIN now. There is a difference. Please see the photo of my back posted with this review. Worst/best part of the story? To start, i can admit i was not wearing the appropriate underwear for a massage, not knowing i was going to book one until i was out for the day. So I'm on my back and she's massaging my feet... and she grabs me by my ankles (kind of like you do when you're lifting a baby's legs up to change their diaper) she stretches my legs to the side, then to the other side then TRIES TO STRETCH MY LEGS TOWARDS MY FACE - LIKE UP IN THE AIR - almost completely mooned this woman before saying "no, it's okay, that's good", paying her and leaving. When trying to make small talk during paying, i asked her if it was just her here and she said yes. Did not make my sign an intake form, and saw zero proof of a healthcare license. Not sure what that means. Not sure what any of this means. But definitely would NOT recommend that place to ANYBODY!

Calling to book was very easy and I was able to have an appointment scheduled in a few hours. If it is your first time, you'll need to arrive 5ish minutes prior to your time to fill out paperwork and it is only street parking here so plan accordingly. I walked in and it it's a pretty small lobby with someone in the back at the front desk. There was a small bench which is where I waited until I was called in. I was greeted by Reina who was my facial it's and I completely recommend her! She was so friendly, making sure I was comfortable the whole time, was very knowledgeable with all the questions I had and really took her time with my skin. I got a mini facial which included cleanser, a massage, a mask, extractions and she added on light therapy to benefit my concerns. We were able to have a conversation the whole time and it was great getting to know her! With all my questions, she gave me advice and recommendations without being too pushy. I feel so relaxed and confident leaving there and I can't wait to be back!

It took Aubra two sessions to give me relief from chronic pain I've had for years. Two.

As she worked on my body she explained and sought to find answers for exactly how and why I experienced the pain I do and provide holistic changes and additions I can make to help live a healthier and more pain free existence. Aubra is a one woman show and Metamorphosis is a private spa so the attention to safety and sanitization were immaculate which is imperative during these times.
