Tl;dr: this place is incredible, book a service there now.
I was traveling to DC for work and had an afternoon to spare, so I decided to treat myself to a spa experience. I found RM Wellness through @onthemovewithmad, a DC-based travel influencer, and booked a 60-minute massage and a lymphatic face massage.
The spa itself is a little hard to find, but directions were sent via text and they were perfect. The interior is super charming with exposed stone walls and beautiful wood floors. My treatment room had an original fireplace, subtle but useful furniture, and it was very attractive and cozy.
The massage was just perfect. Regina (also the owner!) checked the pressure a few minutes in, and was very nice. I carry stress in my shoulders and she made it her life goal to rid me of knots - and she did. I'm still relaxed 5 days later.
But the lymphatic facial massage? I've never had one and didn't know what to expect. Not to be dramatic, but it was life-changing. She massaged my face, neck, and décolletage with a smooth stone, and I could feel the drainage (it's allergy season, y'all) leaving my head. I left breathing clearer than I had in weeks. The puffiness was gone from my face, and I felt lighter overall.
Bottom line: a great experience and I look forward to returning in the near future. Ask for Regina when you make your appointment! read more
