Piper at the front desk and Lauren, my massage therapist, were both incredibly friendly and welcoming. Lauren mentioned she had over 17 years of experience and it showed. Her technique was impeccable, and my 60-minute massage (with hot stones, highly recommend!) was amazing. I also loved the sauna. It didn't feel cramped, and the cold foot bath paired with the variety of essential oils for the hot rocks made it even more special. If you're looking for a true luxury spa experience, go to Bloom. I'll definitely be back. Thank you Cassandra and Mike!

Bloom Wellness is a great day spa for unwinding in the chaos of the everyday…read more I visited recently after getting a gift card, and I'm glad I got a chance to check the place out. The setting is very calm despite being at a busy corner of West Stadium. There were a few other people in the spa at the same time, but not so many that it felt intrusive or crowded. My experience started with a massage. It was relaxing but not up there with the best massages I've gotten around town. Next came the infrared sauna, which was probably my favorite part. With relaxing music and heat all around, I was able to zone out and enjoy myself. The float pool was next. I liked the waterproof headphones to listen to zen music as I floated, but the air temperature kept the parts of my body that were above water pretty chilly. I ended up cutting that part short as a result. Overall it was a good experience. I wish their parking were better marked (I parked in a lot to the left of the building as you're looking at it from the front). I also felt like the scheduling process was a little informal and unprofessional. I called and instead of returning my call, I got a text message back with informal grammar "Texting u from Bloom wellness" - it came off as sloppy.

The rooms are clean, they have good customer service, and have detailed instructions for newcomers. The second time was a bit frustrating. We happened to get the same room as we did last year. The water started out as luke-warm. They said we could call to have the water temp increased, but each time we called, they barely added heat to the water. We called twice. We ended up with a warm bath instead of a steamy hot tub, and that was only at the end of our time. It was a bit disappointing, and the first time was so much better.

Also I had abdominal surgery, chemo and radiation. It's been almost impossible to get to the gym, until I had to and have met some very nice people. We get the warm pool all to ourselves for one hour each session. There are only about 8 of us, and the rest of the people can use the deep area/lane of the pool during the class. I have noticed a great increase in energy and my leg muscles are stronger. The arthritis pain is mostly the same. I now have TKR surgery scheduled for Oct. 1st and am going to work with Amanda who was our pool "teacher" one on one. We are going to focus on the machines. This way I will gain strength and not injure myself. The gym is beautiful. I breath a deep sigh of delight every time I enter. Of course there are occasional things like bandaids on the floor, but if reported, they get taken care of. Everyone has been very nice. I am a member and will continue to go after my surgery as soon as I am medically released. I'll go back to another 8 weeks of myfitRx just as soon as I can. It's like a day spa, everytime I go!

While they don't have digital sign up (I have to call and share my credit card information over the phone or just go in person....), they clearly do invest in their facilities and these details don't go unnoticed! Lastly, the staff is always so helpful and friendly here - even early morning at 5am!

The decor looks a bit dated compared to say the newly constructed L.A fitness - but the facilities are quite comprehensive - I use the strength training facilities, my partner makes use of the included fitness classes, and my kids love the indoor play area and pool, and great outdoor pool / recreation area during the summer. Great place to host birthday parties too. Hard to find this combo anywhere else. I also find that Liberty being independently owned leads to better service than I experienced at L.A Fitness and Planet fitness - the people who work at Liberty have often times been around for years and seem to care more. If you are a solo adult, the extra cost might be harder to justify. But for our family, this is hands down the best fitness club in Ann Arbor.

My husband and I have been members of Liberty Athletic Club for the last year and I have nothing…read morebut great experiences so far. In the last year they've been renovating quite a bit to update the spaces, equipment, etc, which has helped the overall vibe. They started by painting and reflooring the main workout room and are currently renovating and updating the indoor lap pool and hot tubs/saunas. The locker rooms are clean and the lockers are easy to use. The workout equipment is in great condition and even during their busiest times it's easy to get a treadmill or a bike. Plenty of TVs and things to keep you occupied with as well as you're huffing and puffing along. They have a few rooms for specialized classes--group fitness, spin and yoga. Now, I've only done the yoga classes so I can't comment on the others but the yoga classes I've attended were good (restorative yoga). I've always felt a million times better coming out than when I went in. There's a lot to do for families too. With a big kid's complex with a play area, rock climbing wall and indoor water park for fun during the winter months (also open in the summer). The outdoor complex is awesome and open Memorial to Labor Days. To be honest, this was the selling point for me. They have a few lap lanes for adult swimming (yes there are only two but I never had a problem getting a lap of my own this summer and I went several times a week) a bigger "play" area in that pool for the older kids/teens, and a splash/smaller pool for kids with a nice water slide. The outdoor cafe area has beverages, smoothies, frozen yogurt, and a few hot items for lunching. There's a small playground and even a few holes of mini golf in the complex as well. Plus outdoor tennis courts, of course. The club is big on tennis and they have a ton of courts inside as well. Plus classes, teams, and more. I feel like there's always a tennis club gathering when I'm there. There's a small indoor cafe as well with snacks, water, smoothies and such. They close around 7:30pm every day so it's more for lunch or a post-work pick me up before your workout. They have a small spa area upstairs with pedicures and massages. When you join you get a coupon for either or so I booked one and splurged on another. Great solitary environment. I had a beautiful pedicure and one of the best massages I've ever had. It's just a little pricey to do often, but if I could I would. It's definitely not a cheap membership, but I get a generous stipend from work for a fitness membership which covers most of the cost. If not for this I'm not sure I could swing it. But since I can, I try and make the most of my membership.

Three adult women went for a spa day. To sum it up, the experience overall was super…read moredisappointing. Before going, I asked a lot of questions about the facility as we were looking for a totally relaxing experience. I booked massages and facials I was told there was both a steam room and sauna to relax in while waiting for each other to complete the services. From the minute we walked in the door we felt bad vibes. The young girl manning the front desk set the tone--no friendly greeting, slow, and uninformative when giving us a "tour" of the facility. My immediate reaction when viewing the premises was that it was old and not clean. In the "shower /steam room" (for one person), long dark hair was all over the tile and there was rust by the pipes. When I brought this to the attention of the girl, she literally said nothing. I then asked about using the sauna and she told me it was closed. Now, I called three days before our appointments asking specifically about the amenities and was not told it was broken. Walking by the "sauna room", you could see it was now used for storage. This left no options other than to sit in the relaxation room. The lounges were comfortable, but there was no reading material and the refreshments were minimal. We could hear talking and cackling from other areas of the spa from the "relaxation room" and had to close the door to minimize the noise. At one point, a dog was barking in building. The only good thing about the visit was my massage with Desiree was very good. My friends were not as impressed with their services. The final blow was during checkout. The same young girl didn't understand billing and said she could not produce a bill for the services until I paid in full. WHAT? I was literally doing the math trying to figure out what was being charged when she also informed me of a "3% convenience charge" . Again, WHAT? That was never disclosed to us nor was it mentioned on the website. The girl first told me it was the markup for the new prices in 2024. Then she told me it was a fee that went to the owner. Garbage! OK, enough of this spa. Moving on to find another one.

So I went in for a facial with Sandra. The girl in the lobby first showed me to the "relaxation…read morearea." It was nice but a little boring. The good thing is they have tea, coffee, and water. Also really clean bathroom. I got bored so I went back out to the lobby. The facial itself was very good. The room was a little small but Sandra was very professional, her hands are gentle and she knows how to give a facial. She really reads the forms that you fill out at the beginning, and she made sure she didn't use a product I am allergic to. She also gives you a massage on your neck, arms, and side of your face towards the end. You get a mask towards the end as well. The products smell really good and, again, her hands are gentle. It was a very good experience and I would go back. She uses steam which I wasn't used to, but it was interesting. My skin looks very smooth and clean. I would go back. Definitely would recommend Sandra!

I'm updating my review. I was a member again a few months this summer, to work out at the gym with…read moremy son, who had the free summer membership they were offering for 19 year-olds. I shared my previous concerns from the last review and they were very understanding. The facility was always clean, plenty of free weights available, and the other customers were great. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is due to some safety concerns about being approached by people in the parking lot for money at night. There is private security, but oddly I often found their cars parked facing away from the parking lot, so not with a good view of the members leaving the building. This is not the fault of Planet Fitness, and they did call security when leaving. I left for different reasons (Son's free membership expired and he had discount through community college health and fitness center). The price is good for the service, and I would still be there if I was on my own!

(not that all rich people are bastards, mind you) We played tennis but never competed. We played on old, cracked, outdoor, forgotten courts because then we didn't have to deal with anyone else. I played in skate shoes, flannel shirts, and jeans (it was the '90s!). We love to swim but we take more time to complete a lap than an asthmatic turtle. So when I hear 'tennis club' I cringe. I automatically think of upturned noses. But after four times of hitting balls around at Chippewa, my apprehension is waning. This ain't no snobby country club. I'm a plus one on my partner's family's membership so I can't tell you anything about cost. I can tell you, however, that there are: - six well-maintained really-high-ceiling indoor courts with water stations and benches. - draw-nets that separate the courts. - large wheeled carts filled with tennis balls. - a lot of people taking lessons which means you get a range from Eastern students with blond ponytails and 80 mph serves to 50 year-old men with sweat bands on their heads who can hardly hit a ball. - changing rooms with great little nooks that give you a little privacy and comfort - six spacious showers in private stalls with nice hot water - a small sauna - a full gym downstairs with aerobic machines, weights, etc. Always is empty when I'm there Still haven't scoped the pool but hope to do so soon. If you want a laid-back atmosphere with all-season courts but where you don't have to have a diamond ring or a beamer to join, this just might be your place.

It makes for some interesting activity in the room with 4 walls. I was actually looking forward to it as I had not played in a while. The place sits hidden back off of Golfside Rd. It has a distinctive sign that you can't miss. Half way down the long driveway I was wondering if I was in the right spot. I then saw a building so to the left I turned. Hmmmm.....Seems deserted and vacant. It took me 15 mins to call the club to ask if I was at the correct location. Nope! You turned left instead of right and you are at the Swimming pool and outdoor Tennis courts. Okie Dokie. The place is actually at the furthest end of the driveway. Once arriving at the actual building I noticed I was at the correct location because I actually saw people. After climbing the steps and entering the building there are Indoor Tennis courts, Soccer and Racquetball rooms. The charge is $6 to enter. There is a locker room for men and women. I would recommend bringing a lock. The RB rooms are located on the lower level along with Exercise equipment. It is not a new facility but maintained, We played 6 games and I felt the burn the following day. Overall, it was a fun experience once you actually find the correct building.
