The customers stood up from the chairs (they also had 2 cute dogs with them) as I walked in and shown to my chair. The guy literally straighten the towels and pushed the foot chair! I was thinking of giving them my feedback at check out, but I was turned off by the guy asking me about tip to the staff (which I planned to).

The 30 min massage was good, but I really enjoyed the 60 min reflexology foot massage. Unfortunately baby girl didn't come that weekend, so I ended up scheduling another prenatal 30 min massage a couple days later (where I'm also 41+ weeks) to get some work in before my chiro adjustment down the road and WOW...that 30 min massage was seriously the best I ever had during this pregnancy. This time, I had Cindy and she made sure to hit allll the labor points, including my feet, lower back, and even thighs. Ended my session with a yummy head massage too. Felt so good + so refreshed by the end of my session, it was truly a solid 10/10. I also noticed it was a lot easier for my chiro to adjust me, too. Will definitely be back whenever I need a massage, whether it's my whole body or feet and hopefully the labor points worked this time to encourage baby out! Oh, and try to bring cash if you can-- there's a 3% charge if using a card so I made sure to bring cash for my 2nd visit :)

Michelle was amazing using all her wonderful techniques to give me one of the best massages ever. My facial was relaxing and very hydrating. The vibes is chill and relaxed . The only issue is that clients who visit the spa should have pool access. Every spa I've been to has included the pool as part of your day to relax. They expected us to pay another fee to utilize the pool and that is not something I was willing to do. I did have a wonderful experience but I probably would not return for this reason alone.

When we arrived, I advised the front desk attendant of my earlier call and the price quote and he confirmed that was correct. We then went to our spa rooms and waited at least 15 minutes before the massage therapists showed up. They then gave us a 1 hour massage, but when we went to the front to pay, a different attendant said we rec'd 75 minute massages and that the cost was $95 each + tax. We advised them we had made it very clear that we were getting 1 hour massaged and that we had confirmed the $75 price beforehand as well as upon our arrival. As we argued with the attendant, we noticed her English skills became progressively worse. We finally paid and left, but have filed a dispute with our credit card company. Apparentently, Magic Spa personnel thing it's fair to "bait and switch" their price quote or that it's fair to charge you for a 15 minute wait before your massage begins. WE WON'T GO BACK AGAIN!

More comfortable waiting area. A+ all around! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (Earlier Review) I've been going to this ME since 2013 and been a continuous member since 2010. This is my "usual" location and for the most part I use the same therapist at every visit. I always get great service at the front desk and most of the receptionist know me by name! The space is pleasant and clean. I only have a couple of suggestions and comments (but still 5 star regardless) 1) The music is, well, bad. Most of the times it is distracting, not soothing. I usually ask my therapist to turn it down. If it is mandated at the company level they should re-evaluate it. If is picked by the location you should find a more soothing soundtrack. 2) The padding on the tables are in need of an upgrade! The have become flat with very little cushion. My last visit was almost uncomfortable. I know you upgrade from time to time and I think it's time! Maybe it was just the room I was in... Regardless - put some money into the tables. 3) I personally hate the purple face protectors. The all have "pile" on them and they are not soft and comfortable. I think I will purchase my own 100% white cotton and just bring it with me. 4) In the bathroom the fan needs dusting! I always gargle before hand and I look up! This is an easy fix!

Another customer was on her phone the entire time. The space was a busy hallway and there was nothing tranquil about it. Although the massage was average, the masseuse was a complete chatterbox. I wish they would ask if you want to talk or be silent, ask in the appointment questionnaire or profile, or at least follow your lead. Maybe I've been spoiled at other locations, but I won't be going back to this one anytime soon.
