As far as rating the massage therapist, Ronnie, I give 5 stars! Have been to many massage studios…read moreand hotels and often leaving feeling underwhelmed, I am happy to say that Ronnie is a diamond in the rough. He listens, has gentle touch, understands good customer service, and doesn't upsell. If I were a local, I'd be seeing Ronnie routinely for a full body massage. The spa is quite clean, quiet and well maintained. The staff are incredibly attentive and friendly. Michelle, another massage therapist, and I became fast friends just chatting. The new sauna could be a little hotter IMO, and the curtains in front of the door impede the glass door from closing. I think the seal for the door could use some attention. It's good for beginners to sauna or people who don't need it hot. I wish there were a timer or clock visible from the sauna. Relaxation room chairs: heat up, comfortable (with a lumbar pillow!), a cable knit throw, and a secret table. I love that spa appointments also give you access to the pool and jacuzzis. Don't hesitate. Book it. Ronnie is amazing!

For Christmas, I gifted my 40 year old daughter a mother/daughter spa day. We are locals, but we…read morewanted to feel like we escaped for a day of pampering among beautiful grounds. We came a couple hours early for out 12:00 noon appointment, We were met by Marissa Edwards, an angel in our eyes. She made us feel like we were the only guest she's ever had. She, and her staff accommodated our every need and even some we didn't even know we needed! We had a "couples" massage by 2 fantastic masseuses, I thought I had signed up for 80 minute massages, but it turned out to be 50 minutes, when I selected a couples massage, they only do the 50 minutes, I missed that! We were still very satisfied. After the massages, we headed to the pool for lunch. Marissa had made sure we had extra care and the pool staff was amazing, food was good. The real reason I wanted to write a strong review is because Marissa Edwards went over-the-top in customer services with us. There are many other experiences we had, mostly with Marissa's doing. My daughter and I are keen on customer service, she exceeded every expectation, which is a rarity these days. Thank you Marissa for making a beautiful day so magical for my "girl" and me.

The locker room is nice and clean, and the lockers had more than ample space for my tote bag and running sneakers I brought to use at the gym before my treatments. The changing rooms, bathrooms, and showers are all very clean as well. All products available to use were of higher quality which I found impressive. There are even hair tools you can use if you need to brush your hair or touch up your curls, etc. The relaxation lounge was nice and calming; perfect lighting to keep you relaxed as well as a fireplace to sit near while you sip fruit infused water or some herbal tea. The chairs in that area were also very comfortable and easy to relax in. My 80min full body massage was great! I had no problem letting my masseuse know when to adjust pressure and she would respond accordingly. My 50min facial was also amazing! It was my first time ever receiving a facial and I enjoyed the whole experience, leaving me feeling extremely pampered. I utilized the dry sauna room after my treatments and it was perfect, I almost fell asleep it was so cozy in there. It was easy to adjust the temperature of the room to my liking and the music was very calming and zen. Overall, I would definitely return! I have no idea why others have rated this establishment so low, but for me I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here and would encourage others to give it a chance.

She checked to ensure I liked the pressure points throughout and did a fabulous tailored massage! Michelle is a world-class masseur (9 years) and I've had many, many massages (locally, U.S. areas & travels aboard) and thought she was simply one of the best!!!! Michele used her hands skillfully and applied some acupressure with her forearms to ease out my knots and aches. The hot stone application was superb too!! Michele is professional, friendly and caring -apparent that customer satisfaction is her goal. I knew I had to come back and returned for another massage with Michele and again she hit the mark with a fantastic, deep tissue massage!! and hot stone treatment impressive! I'm truly a very satisfied customer!!! I'd give Michelle more than a 5 star if I could! Simple décor, quiet and welcoming. Very clean rooms, heated table and soft music. Reasonably price, located on the second floor of an office business park which seemed a bit odd but so glad I booked which was easy and even offers late hours. An excellent find!!

The front desk staff is also very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this location. The only downside I can think of isn't really their fault, mall parking.

I had a facial here with Jesyca before and she was so an amazing aesthetician. Leanne has a gentle hand with extractions, but she is precise and her attention to detail is so appreciated. You only have one face and if you want to take care of it seek her out. The relaxing music, comfortable warmed up bed, a nice massage, and a clean plump face made me so very happy. Overall it was a lovely experience and such a treat to meet such a skilled practitioner like Leanne. Will be back for a facial in a few weeks!

Our consult was incredibly in depth and they were able to get me on the schedule within 2 months. The surgical team took great care of me day of and provided fantastic follow up care. The medical assistants at the office were my daily point of contact ensuring that Dr. Brown and his team were reviewing my pictures and that my healing was moving along as expected. Every day I get to wake up in a body that feels like home because I trusted Dr. Brown and his team. I cannot recommend them enough.

After getting fed up with other people's comments about my body, I decided to do elective surgery…read morefor gynecomastia (man boobies). I called around and got a few consultations, but the sales lady at Dr. Brown's office really got me. She sold me on the fact that Dr. Brown was a specialist in gyno and would be my best option. She also sold me on Dr. Brown being "so good" that he didn't need to leave tubes in me after the surgery. This is why it was botched. Other surgeons would have used drainage tubes which would have prevented this. The surgery ended up getting botched and my left nipple looks worse than before. A staph infection built up and eventually exploded outwards, ruining my nipple forever. The good: -Dr. Brown was a decently nice guy and most of his staff was cool. -When my nipple burst, they patched me up for free and quickly. -They offered to try and fix it at their cost. The bad: -They definitely could have acted quicker when the infection became obvious. They started by prescribing me the wrong antibiotics which allowed the infection to swell even more. -They tried to blame the infection on me, suggesting that I did not follow recovery guidelines after a couple of comments I made (this is bull, they were covering for themselves). -Dr. Brown kept gas lighting me on the follow up visits saying "wow, everything looks so good" and ignoring my displeasure at the results. -The NP dropped my valium on the HOSPITAL FLOOR and then MADE ME TAKE IT. Lady, for $9,000 get me another valium! Disgusting. -The emergency hotline for weekends is BS. After my nipple burst, I waited for 6 hours for a call back. Leaking puss and blood the entire time. -Dr. Brown did not shave the surgery site. I'm no surgeon, but I'm pretty sure you are suppose to do that. I'm a hairy guy. HOW WAS HE SUPPOSE TO SEE WHAT HE WAS DOING? I was shocked when I woke up and saw all of my hair was still there. Overall, I deeply regret choosing Dr. Brown as my surgeon. I should have gone with the guy who was gonna use the tubes and not listened to the sales lady. I feel just as self conscious about my body, if not more, than before. $9,000 wasted and I don't think it can be fixed.
