It was the perfect birthday gift from my husband. I will definitely be back for another and will recommend to all my loved ones. Thank you!

I have been coming for a massage monthly for some time now. Over two years of monthly membership. I…read morealways look forward to my massages. I am doing another update considering what recently happened. A month ago I had an appointment. I got a call from Spavia that my masseuse was not going to be able to make the appointment. We were able to set up a quick appointment for that weekend. That day came around and I got a call a couple hours before the appointment. The new masseuse had an emergency was wasn't going to be able to make it. This wasn't the norm and they were happy to offer additional changes to try and make up for the situation. It was really nice for them to offer the options that they did. They say this doesn't happen often and felt bad. Here is the normal massage breakdown. Warmed massage tables call my name on a cold Iowa evening. Darkened hallways start to set the mood. Electric candles line the floor to help guide you to where you need to be. Once you are in the locker room you can change into your robe and slippers. This is not required with every service they offer. You have your own locker which you set the lock. They have 2 little curtained off changing rooms. The wall hooks have broken over time, but if I can I just use the roomy bathroom to change. Once you have all your personal items locked away you can step into the lounging area. 4-5 different places to sit. Electric fireplace on the wall. Some books, gentle music, little water fountain. All the things to help you relax. They have warming neck wraps and hot water for tea. If you are early enough for your appointment, then take advantage and chill. When your time comes you get called back. My personal preference is one individual for body massages. I have to book months in advance to make sure I am getting him. I dont want to share, but its Eddy. He is amazing. He listens to me and remembers my preferences. After heavenly treatment you are escorted back to the lounge. You can hang out and decompress or you can head out. As of my last visit in Sept '24 they just updated the furniture in there. It is not really comfy as before. I have tried another service here, but prefer my monthly membership booking a massage each time. Read less

The gloves she wore irritated my skin. Her hands shook, like she was scared to touch me. They obviously have an esthetician doing body work, instead of a massage therapist. She never even touched my lower back or glutes and she accidentally poked my vagina twice during draping. The company called to say they would like to make it up to me, but when I called back the manager was out so I left a message and she never called back. Avoid this place.

When I first moved to Ankeny, I had a tough time selecting a new salon. Anani was close to our…read morehouse, so I gave it a try and have never looked back. Every member of our family has experienced some type of service from Anani. From our youngest's first haircut to my elderly father's first massage, we have had wonderful experiences and fabulous service. My curly hair is handled with expertise, and my daughters routinely get cuts that keep their hair healthy and pretty. I've also been impressed with the knowledge of the front desk staff. I stopped in one day for a recommendation on sunscreen, having been newly treated for a potential skin cancer issue, and the receptionist pointed out several products and discussed the pros and cons of each. This was so very helpful.

The service began with a close-up look at our scalp and hair follicles under a microscope--something I'd never done before. Anna walked us through everything we were seeing and explained what was going on with our scalp health. (Mine was dry and flaky, which I suspected, but seeing it up close was eye-opening!) She then recommended specific treatments to help correct the issues. The treatment itself? Pure bliss. If you're someone who lives for that hair-washing moment at the salon, this takes it to a whole new level. We enjoyed a luxurious scalp massage, upper body and leg massage, plus a facial--all included in the service. The atmosphere was peaceful and calming, and we both left feeling completely relaxed. The best part? You get to look at your scalp again afterward, and the difference was noticeable--less buildup, cleaner follicles, and a much healthier look overall. My hair feels softer and cleaner than it ever has. Truly. The price was more than reasonable for everything included. Thank you so much, Anna! We'll definitely be back--and we're already recommending this to everyone we know.

I paid for an hour deep-tissue massage, and got what was not even a soft massage. Cindy seemed aloof, disengaged and wholly uninterested. She kept looking around as if I was a distraction to her day. I told her up front I needed my feet done and they never got touched. Instead, I got a lame scalp message that only served to mess up my hair. I will NEVER back be to this place and can only say buyer beware. ANYWHERE else is better.
