My first experience at Woodhouse Spa in Buffalo hit it out of the park! For Christmas, I treated my…read moremom and myself to 50-minute massages and it was such a perfect way to relax and spend time together especially because I had been wanting to try this spa forever, but it was always fully booked. I jumped on it early in December and snagged us appointments for January 3rd. Turns out, it was worth the wait! My massage therapist, Janine, was wonderful and my mom only spoke positively about her massage therapist, Hannah. I always know a massage is good when I fall asleep... and sure enough, I drifted off for a little spa nap. Mission accomplished! I also loved the quiet room and the showers afterward, which really extended the whole relaxation experience. While I've been to spas across the country with much more extravagant amenities, Woodhouse is a fantastic option for Buffalo. I felt it was very clean, calm, and exactly what you want from a quality day spa. My mom and I both left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and very happy we finally made it happen! I'm sure we'll be back next time I am in town!

I will definitely be returning. Thank you, it was a wonderful experience.

Would not recommend this place to anyone had a massage and a facial both were below average…read more Very high on my list is hygiene and neither lady started by washing their hands for me this is a definite bad start. Facial felt like she had no idea of order or steps. I have had many facials this place was new to me yes but,it was not just oh a different place. NO she missed the areas past my cheekbones both sides to include the entire time. I would also highly recommend being aware when you are over someone that sometimes after eating or drinking that mints are so needed or water. This was an experience that I was just counting down when the treatment would be over the whole time. I did not relax at all. This was the sealing of no return when I left and got into my car I looked in the mirror both sides of my nose in the crease and above had white product left on. This is such unprofessional salon service. People pay hard earned money for a relaxing experience Could not of been more disappointed ! As for the the massage. I had the new member of the salon just my luck and while it was probably gonna be a learning curve for technique. I was on the receiving end of this. As I said could not get past thinking when is this over and yes I had the massage first so being disappointed I was so hopeful for the facial and ended with those same thoughts for both. There is no way I would want to say at the time to embarrass or be hurtful that it was awful ,but It was definitely that.

Waited over 45 min for my appointment. I was on time. They said ten minutes. After the 30 min mark…read moreI was extremely frustrated. Don't tell a client it's appointment only, and then make them wait for their appointment, and then say it's going to be ten minutes!! I think it's happy ending massage in my option, because why are you in there with a man for "ten minutes" and it ends up being 45+? Really was looking to relax but this just made it worse. I'll never come back

During the session, the masseuse starts to discuss her tips. She wants to get around 33% tips . I tried to explain to here this is too much, usually tips between 15% and 20%.

New client came during the session, the masseuse left me and greeted him. As she was in hurry to finalize my session . She started to change the blanket while I wear my clothes. The door she left open , another client watched me naked. Zero privacy, zero professionalism

I highly recommend Rosie for a facial. The best facial that I have ever had!!! I wish I could've left her a tip however, the establishment only accepts cash tips - who walks with cash these days. Following the facial, I did the Turkish bath. Interesting experience but I would not do that again. In terms of my overall experience with this spa, I don't think they were very welcoming, I got the impression that they don't get too many African-Americans in their shop.

Laura is EXCELLENT. I've been seeing her 4+ years. She is so professional and very good at her job…read more She really cares about her customer's well being and is extremely kind. Her studio is very clean and well decorated, with a really comfortable atmosphere. The studio is located right behind Scanlon Jeweler's on Main Street. There is a lot right outside the entrance for parking. She uses all natural products (Himalayan salt stones and essential oils to name a few). I love her choices of aromatherapy to be used during the massage. She DOES NOT accept gratuity. I always feel like I'm floating on a cloud when I leave The Kneaded Knot. Whether you're looking to feel better or just relax, you will always be in good hands with Laura. 10/10 highly recommended. Thanks Laura!

My first visit was better than the second but I still love this place and highly recommend it. My first visit was better as I purchase a complete spa package with a massage, make up application, light refreshments, etc. It was amazing!!! For today's visit I just chose a 30 minute deep tissue massage. I was slightly disappointed as I was actually booked for an hour massage (I know, I shouldn't be complaining!) but it was more than I had planned to spend and therefore I was not prepared with a better tip for my massage therapist. I wish I was aware of that prior to going into the session. The receptionist was not very friendly and spoke softly so she was hard to understand. It may have been her first day because she was working with another person, but I feel that she could have verified what my appointment was so that I could have confirmed prior to me getting the hour massage and thereby having to pay for the full service. Nevertheless, I was still satisfied with my service. I had Linda as my massage therapist. Initially I was worried because I'm about 5'10" and she is about 5' and I was wondering if she would be able to use enough pressure but she did not disappoint!!! Lol she was awesome and I feel so great! I would recommend her for sure. Overall Kona Oasis is a beautiful spa and I would love to come back for more services.
