The decor is simple and the atmosphere is very quiet and relaxing. The locker room is very clean and the robes are comfy and they actually have larger sizes, which I was worried about. In fact, I was very nervous going to the spa since I'm on the large side but no one made me feel uncomfortable. I felt just like any other client. The manicure and pedicure are very thorough and so relaxing. The polish seems to last a long time (I have just gotten the regular polish, not the gel kind). The manicurists are friendly and will talk to you if you are into that or respect you if you just want to have peace and quiet. The massage was also complete and done respectfully and well. I have never been disappointed with my time spent at the Forum Spa.

I don't remember my masseuse name but she was a bit older near retirement age possibly. After disrobe the table is heated which was nice cause room was bit cold. I requested back & calves for areas to address, she started w warm/hot compress, then oil, then into massage. There was bit of small talk as work done but I think dozed off as it was all very relaxing. When she finished my response was "that was fast" and she says it always is. I think it is good to get a professional massage now and again. The hour was $90 if not for gift card.

Dawn heard my concerns and addressed them by confirming where my muscle tightness was and focusing on those areas with a mix of heavy and light massage. There was one point where I had extreme tightness in my upper back and Dawn massaged some muscle up there and I felt it loosen the entire way down to my butt; I have never experienced a relief/release like that. I can honestly say that this massage experience changed my life as I will be seeking out that same relief from anything and everything. The atmosphere is also unmatched, cozy rooms with comfy sheets and blankets and fans to keep you at a comfortable temperature.

Yes. That actually strengthens the review because it raises a fair question about why you were…read moreassigned to Shenekwa when the spa apparently identifies Kirstie with that specialty. I'd word it as a question rather than claiming anything about their staffing decisions: I booked a lymphatic drainage massage yesterday, and unfortunately, this was one of the worst day-spa experiences I've had. I've been to plenty of spas and have had lymphatic massage before, so I had a reasonable expectation of what this service should be. What makes this especially disappointing is that I explained to my therapist, Shenekwa, that my doctor specifically recommended lymphatic drainage massage to help my body decongest. I explained that this was an important massage for me and that I needed someone experienced and knowledgeable in lymphatic drainage. I specifically asked Shenekwa whether she had performed lymphatic drainage massages before and about her experience with them. She told me that she has several clients she performs them on. After experiencing the service and listening to her responses when I asked questions about lymphatic drainage, I personally find that very difficult to believe. She would give me answers, but they were vague and unhelpful and did not demonstrate the level of knowledge I would expect from someone regularly performing this specialized service. The massage itself was equally disappointing. She used a cheap-feeling aloe vera gel and didn't even have enough product to complete my massage. She actually ran out during the service and continued rubbing and massaging areas of my skin DRY. It was uncomfortable and completely unacceptable for a professional spa service. The lymphatic drainage technique and sequence also did not resemble what I have previously experienced with this type of massage. The entire service felt low-effort and as though very little care was being put into it. I actually felt worse when I left than I did when I arrived. What makes this even more frustrating is that, according to the spa's own website, Kirstie is listed as specializing in lymphatic massage. If the spa has a therapist who specifically specializes in the service I booked, why wasn't I scheduled with her? Especially when I made it clear that this massage was recommended by my doctor and that having someone experienced was important to me. Had I known there was a therapist there who specifically specialized in lymphatic massage, I absolutely would have requested her. There was also an issue before my appointment even started. About 30 minutes before my scheduled 4:00 p.m. appointment, Shenekwa spoke to my husband and told him that she was getting a tire changed and would be running late. I still arrived before my scheduled appointment because I'm always on time. When I arrived, she was already there and apparently able to start on time. I'm glad she made it on time, but since she had spoken to my husband to say she would be late, she could have contacted us again to let us know that she had actually made it back on time. It left me wondering what would have happened if I had relied on what she told my husband and arrived at the later time she indicated. Would I have then been considered late or charged for being late? Clients are expected to respect appointment times, and that consideration should go both ways. If you're going to charge premium day-spa prices for a specialized service like lymphatic drainage massage, you should make sure the therapist performing that service is properly trained, knowledgeable, and skilled in that specific technique. And if you already have someone on staff whom your own website identifies with lymphatic massage, I don't understand why clients booking that specialized service wouldn't be placed with that person. I still gave Shenekwa a $9 tip because I felt she at least tried, but the service failed miserably to meet my expectations. I left feeling worse than when I arrived, and I would absolutely never return. I've had many day-spa experiences, and I've never had one quite like this. For the amount of money being charged, customers deserve a much higher level of professionalism, knowledge, and care.

I looked over the reviews and decided to try this place out. The GPS doesn't take you right to the complex--it actually instructs you to turn off a few hounded feet early. Luckily, we saw a large sign in front of the actual location near the road. I signed in and a young lady came in from outside. She asked me if I was there for eyebrows and I said yes; then she told me she would be with me in a few minutes. Inside is pretty--with a white and purple theme. There are two couches and a table with magazines. There's a tv on the wall but it was showing a tutorial of a hair style. It's clean and well lit but it was a tad hot. It would've been great if the thermostat was set a few degrees lower. They also have a coffee machine and water which is a great added touch. She was kind and we made small talk. I was very specific with what I asked for--I wanted to keep as much fullness as possible. While my eyebrows are nice, I'm not a huge fan of them. They are thinner than what I prefer. Ugh! ...now I must wait another 3-4 weeks to try again. On the bright side, eyebrow threading is only $10.

It's been 3 days and the nails are still looking great with no chipping. They have massage chairs for the pedicures and the staff take care of everything for you. My technician even suggested I get my credit card out before my polish went on to protect my nails. I've been to countless nail salons across the US and the world and only 1 in 10 techs will remember that important detail. The staff is courteous and very service-oriented. They offer soft beverages and I've been told if it wasn't Sunday morning, we would have been offered wine as well. The bathroom was big, brightly lit, and clean and so were all the other facilities. I highly recommend this place.
