They were both extremely kind, professional, and made me feel comfortable and cared for throughout my visit. The spa itself is beautiful, clean, and has such a relaxing atmosphere. I really loved that it isn't a typical spa office setting. It's located in an older Victorian-style home in Shadyside, which gives it a unique and cozy feel that adds to the overall experience. Even the front desk staff (I believe her name was Laura) was so welcoming and friendly. Everyone I interacted with made me feel right at home. I originally came in because I had a gift card, but after such a great experience, I will definitely be returning for future massages and facials. Highly recommend!

Right in the middle of a busy business district, but also tucked away and quiet! The waiting area was cute, looks to be an old house turned into a spa.

I felt like all my concerns were addressed and I left feeling relaxed with glowing skin. I would return!

Abby is keenly aware of how the human body works and tailors the entire experience to the…read moreindividual needs of the person she is working with. I've always been very impressed with how well she has been able to understand me through body language and massage me the way that I need without ever making me feel any physical discomfort in the way that other massage therapists have. I had the pleasure of experiencing Massage with Abby both one on one and during a couples massage class with my partner and she is hands down my favorite massage therapist. During the class, she provided intuitive constructive criticism to my partner and has improved the way he massages me to this day. She also made me feel significantly more competent in being able to massage my partner as well. I would highly recommend her both one on one as well as through the class that she offers couples. The price is completely worth it with Abby and she is the best!

I booked a 90-minute couple's massage class for my boyfriend and I for his Valentines gift. The…read moreclass was very personalized--Abby did a great job of combining what we wanted to learn with her perceptions of our areas of tension. She even pulled out books to show me the muscular anatomy, so I could understand the muscles that are causing my boyfriend's headaches and how to best find them and work on them. I have some experience with reiki and she even showed me how to work reiki into the massage techniques. You can take notes or take pictures and videos with your phone so that you can bring this knowledge home, but you'll also have plenty of time to work on the techniques and build them into your memory. Abby is very intuitive and quickly picked up on our needs, and we had a very relaxing time. Massage is a great way for couples to care for each other and strengthen intimacy, I would highly recommend this class for any couple looking to destress together. Prices are super reasonable too. We'll definitely be back for another lesson sometime, and I already booked a massage for just me next week!

***UPDATE FROM 3/18/24…read more I have no been seeing yo-yo for almost a year. I suffer from chronic migraines and I am a full time student so I spend a lot of time on the computer. I stand by saying YoYo is a miracle worker. When she first suggested I get cupping last summer I saw an instant difference in how my neck felt after my first session. Now i try to make it every month if not more. The cupping treatments have completely changed my life. YoYo pays attention to my body and where it hurts and I always leave feeling like I have a brand new head and shoulders. Book your appointment as soon as possible with her to make the change you need in your life to feel happy and healthy!

I came back again for the Mother Roasting. As described on their website mother roasting is a…read morerejuvenating post-partum treatment performed about two weeks after the delivery of your new baby. I booked this shortly after getting out of the hospital, knowing that for months it was going to be part of my "post-birth plan" (y'know, treat yo self). I felt so taken care of I almost wept. They kindly let you take your newborn with you and assure you can get up a get your baby at any point during the almost 2 hour long treatment. I think that my baby was so relaxed by the lights and the music because she napped for longer than she usually did at that point and slept the whole time (which was such a gift to me). It was a very cold February day, so the idea of being "roasted" by hot stones was very appealing. No matter the weather I absolutely recommend this as a gift to a new mother (or for yourself as a mother).

Overall, this is a wonderful place to receive a service…read more When you first enter, you are warmly greeted and given paperwork to fill out. While you are filling out paper work, they give you a warm neck wrap and also offer water or tea to drink. The massage rooms are spacious and very well decorated and maintained. Everything was extremely clean without feeling sterile. The massage therapist I had took the time to listen to what I wanted out of the experience and made sure to make the most of our time attending to my areas of concern. I left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated (which was my main goal for the treatment). The two downsides are that there is street parking only (so you might have to park several blocks away) and they are one of the more pricey establishments. (but you really do get what you pay for). Definitely worth the splurge to get a service here.

I admit, with the affordable prices and strip mall location I was skeptical about what type of service I would receive. However, when I entered the massage studio I knew I would have a great experience. The reception area is small but inviting and the receptionist was friendly but not overbearing. The massage therapist (Hope) took the time to ask me what my concerns and pains were and based her massage on those areas and concerns. It was refreshing to have a personalized experience rather than a standard massage. She kept asking whether the level of pressure was OK (I was getting deep tissue) and kept other chatter to a minimum. I left the studio feeling refreshed and free of pain. It would have been worth $100 but Melody's has incredibly affordable prices and I only paid $40.

It's been so nice to go to the same person over a long period of time, because they learn your body's "normal" and can tell when things are off. It's also been such a great learning experience, because Courtney is so knowledgeable about the body and can tell me exactly why something feels off and what's happening in my body! I've always been a big fan of massages, but I used to go less frequently, and never see the same person. I never knew what to expect and what the massage therapist's "style" would be like. With Courtney, I always know that my experience will be exactly the way I love it to be - relaxing, calming, and healing. There's always such a great ambiance at Birch & Basli - great music, aromatherapy, comfy massage table, and a very cozy room and personal experience! She is one of the most professional, yet personable and relatable massage therapists I've ever met. Her technique is so highly skilled. I can't recommend her enough!
