He has helped me to understand my body and to understand that time doesn't stand still. As you age, your body changes. I would not permit anyone else to do treatments, except for his daughter.

I will not comment about office experience.

Franciska was a match made in heaven! I am a single mom by choice. I hired Franciska to be part of…read moremy Post Partum Doula support team. She was so much more. Unfortunately, my labor/delivery Doula became unavailable and her backup was not around either. Franciska ended up picking me up from my home and taking me to the hospital as I was in active labor and I was alone (Due to unfortunate failures on the other doula's not affiliated with Fran). She stayed with me for a couple hours at the hospital while I was continuing to labor until a back up doula arrived. Her methods to sooth me during labor (without epidural) were very helpful. Franciska then returned a couple of days later on my day of discharge to take me and the baby home. She spent the next 8 weeks supporting us day and night. She set the bar so high that anybody else always fell short. My daughter and I adore Franciska. Her foods and snacks were delicious and it helped me significantly recover postpartum and while I was breast-feeding. She also paid very close attention to my health when my OB's dropped the ball on so many things. I ended up getting preeclampsia postpartum and if it wasn't for Franciska, I might've ended up hospitalized. Truly, owe my life to her! She is absolutely amazing!

My first pregnancy took place during COVID, so I didn't attend any classes or have a doula. For my second pregnancy, I knew I wanted a completely different experience--one where I felt informed, prepared, and supported. Fran exceeded all my expectations. She listened attentively to what would make me feel most comfortable and confident on delivery day, offering tailored guidance on preparatory exercises, essential information, and day-to-day tips for navigating the journey. Her expertise in birth preparation and support was invaluable, and her warm, compassionate approach made all the difference. I feel so fortunate to have had Fran by my side. I only wish I had worked with her during my first pregnancy! Any future pregnancies for myself or others would undoubtedly benefit from her outstanding doula services. I cannot recommend Fran highly enough.

With our initial conversation she helped me to realize the actions and thoughts that linked together to create tension and blocked energy in my body. From there she then provided me with one of the most unforgettable massages I've ever experienced. She started off with aromatherapy as I layed on the this pre-warmed cozy massage table. The tranquil music that played in the background placed me at ease in an instance. She then provided me with the most relaxing massage I've had, that I even slightly dosed off. After my session was complete I woke up feeling extremely relaxed and clear, which made me realized how tense and stressed my body was. I highly recommend her and will definitely be back to have another session as soon as I possibly can.

The room itself is enough to bring you to a complete state of relaxation. My husband and I were served a delicious cup of tumeric chai tea made with almond milk and homemade dark chocolates. Phenomenal. After a brief chat with Jill and a tour, my husband was brought to his treatment room and me to mine. I had a kati basti treatment. Jill was beyond any therapist I've ever had. I have chronic back issues and pain and because of her expertise today is the first day in years I have not felt any pain. My husband had the nasya treatment and he said it's the best he's felt in years as well. To say today was amazing would be a huge understatement, to say it was a day we will never forget would be more like it. The hospitality and treatment was second to none. Jill is an incredible teacher, therapist and person. We cannot wait to go back as regularly as possible. You must go here. Thank you so much Jill and staff!!

We had a Lakeview room, and while it was spacious, the sofas and carpets had stains on it. There were no good amenities given how expensive the rooms are. We paid for the meals at the restaurant but they were so bad! I definitely had an upset stomach afterwards. The pools, activity room were not kept well. The water machines weren't all working either. Even after doing massages, it was hard to even get water. No one offered us anything. The Ayurveda massages were good but overall we didn't enjoy it. The lady (Anna) who ran the sound bath and meditation was so condescending and rude. There was no air turned on so she opened the outside door to get air in after we asked her, but her energy was so off. One of the front desk person, we asked for a tour and he said "just get lost" and explore on your own. So lazy! I wouldn't recommended this place at all. Given the owner owns a media company, why is this place not maintained well. Also, many of the steam or saunas weren't working. This is not a health resort , it felt like a glorified motel. I wouldn't go again.

See video of wellness concierge attacking me unprovoked and pics with notes. For reference, I stayed here from a Friday to Wednesday and have posted CONS & PROS. This place has enormous potential! I've NEVER written a post like this so, deep breathes... CONS: 100% FALSE ADVERTISEMENT on website. There is barely staff (maybe 3/4 ppl), never a manager on duty, no order, communication, or knowledge of the facility and activities at front desk or by anyone, no guests most days but when seen they were visibly unhappy, unprofessional concierge staff, zero hospitality, no yoga classes after 8am, no wellness coach/instructors/meetings, there was one maintenance man during my stay and he quit, I saw the juice bar open once during a 6 day stay, the "cafe" is either completely empty or closed, geese droppings everywhere on the grounds that just pile up, minimal security at entrance (my id or room # was never verified), most floors were pitch black and/or in disrepair, ice machine on my floor was broken so I had to use 5th floor machine in pitch black, several doors to rooms were unlocked and open to view water damage, ceilings torn down, broken glass, I had to switch rooms on day 2 (without staff aid) bc the air would not work in mine, the guest wifi is free but unsecured and very very shotty, cobwebs, dirt and geese droppings covered my balcony (I HAD to clean it to enjoy the balcony), all doors and windows are dirty, the phone in the room does not connect to any part of the hotel, only one elevator was working and at one point stopped working, it is extremely warm in the building, I was the only guest there for a few of the nights (but still heard a lot of noise at night around me), ** The ABHYANGAM massage** is explained to be gentle and relaxing; it is not- I left covered in bruises and yelped in 10/10 pain 95% most of the time (but hey, if that's your thing go for it!), they will "close" without notice, you are left to your own devices the entire time having no tours of the amenities or a staff member to greet you, booking the stay was extremely tedious and does NOT match availability online, the police officer that arrived after having to call 911 told me YO1 erases video footage all the time, the wellness concierge who attacked me was charged with harassment bc there was no blood or bruising and was *still* working there the rest of my stay, if you are in a suite there is no locking door between the personal massage room and your suite, no groundskeepers/snow removal, most signs in the building are missing letters or sitting on the floor, what theatre? What museum? (It was bare), unprofessionally dressed creepy and unhygienic staff member who I was told was a maintenance manager acted as a housekeeper at my door and made me very uncomfortable, carpets, pillows, couch stains everywhere, my suite had recessed dimmable ceiling lights and a switch but no bulbs, handles to open and close drapes were broken, food and flies behind furniture, blown speakers in the lobby, shower handle would fall off, surrounding area is a ghost town, I was told many times the owners just want money they don't care about the guests experience, an acupuncture needle was left in me and I had to pull it out myself, the owners take the massage therapists tips if you don't give it directly to your masseuse (cash only), the "living" plant wall was NOT alive nor clean, broken and dirty entry doors to building, flickering broken light in refrigerator, no housekeeping check ins, no help with luggage upon arrival or departure, I never got an apology or reparations from anyone about the concierge attack, and the pool area was over 90 degrees and no maintenance to fix it. I never got to do yoga, I never got to swim or use hot tub (both in the same area), I never had one activity to do, and I did not feel safe. PROS: Enormous potential, delicious food, attractive lobby, beautiful views, comfortable bed, incredible gym and activity room, easy parking, quiet, all of the massages I experienced were wonderful as well as the spa staff (much different from hotel staff), spa area is clean, was given extra time with some treatments because there were no other guests, saw lifeguard checking water levels/chemicals. Despite the pros, I left YO1 worse off mentally and physically than when I arrived.
