    I feel compelled to remove a Remedy Spa star based on my experiences here in the last 6 months…read more What with being a pretty big fan of this spa when it initially opened I was (evidently) one of the first people to end up on the spam list. I remember why I had initially forked over my contact details to RS and it was because they occasionally have open house events where you can try products and even receive free (micro session) services like paraffin treatments. Uhh, free spa services!? Show me the dotted line! Several months later I did however start to notice that I was receiving multiple promotional offers/month in my email as well as being sent junk mail in snail mail version! Haughtily, I informed RS that I wanted to receive no more junk and yet somehow still receive the occasional email... At least the paper waste has stopped... I guess? My second gripe with RS was over an encounter I had in late July. I even booked this 50% off wax session from Vancouver, weeks in advance... I was THAT pumped about being back to the land of reasonably priced lady services! Upon arriving, I had an extremely awkward conversation with my esthetician about what *type* of service I would be getting. Trying to cajole someone into ripping MORE hair from between your legs is, I assure you, uncomfortable even for an extrovert. Perhaps you have had this happen before? Where you have been inadvertently booked into a smaller time window than your desired service will take? The real crux in all of this was that whomever I had booked with had not asked which service I wanted and what ultimately came to light was that my wax lady had NEVER DONE A FULL BIKINI WAX BEFORE. She was therefor too nervous to try on me (hey, me too once I found this out!) and I ended up paying for and leaving with a) not the service I had wanted and b) a rather crooked and sloppy job upon at home inspection. To be fair, we've all started new jobs before and I guess there's no school for bikini waxing with faux hippy bush dummies to practice on but come on... I hope my next experience at Remedy is more customer oriented! I will for sure be clarifying repeatedly in future which service I want as well as requesting a more experienced wax-er.

    I climbed the steps reluctantly. I'm always a little hesitant to go eye places that seem like…read morenests, perched at the top of a slew of stairs. When I reached the tastefully designed landing, the smell of warm citrus was like a veil, calming me instantaneously and giving me the desire to be fully pampered. I entered into the small space and was greeted by sunlight and shelves of properly placed products. The lady at the desk was on the tele, so I grabbed a pamphlet and perused the skin care goodies. While reaching for the price list, I noticed an assortment of alcohol bottles and martini glasses - I was wooed right then and there into wanting a Sex & the City moment to call my own. The Farmhouse Fresh products looked sassy and sweet, with yummy smells and gorgeous packaging. There was a foot treatment called the Honey Heel Glaze, selling for $24, which looked like a lovely product. Remedy also carries OPI nail products and a variety of other soothing and rejuvenating luxury items to make your epidermis glow! I loved the look and feel of this place and was glad I opted to head up the stairs to check this place out. The smell alone is enough to calm even the most wound-up of souls, and should be a service in itself. I adore this Facial Bar and would love to have a treatment here.

    My boyfriend & I decided to go to Smiles & Beauty to have our teeth whitened a few months ago. It…read morewas $99 plus tax for the regular 10 minute back to back session. Once we finished we looked in the mirror and were amazed by how white our teeth looked! Although, I couldn't tell if they were ACTUALLY whiter or if they just looked that way because all of the lights in there are florescent? I added another $40 onto my purchase with a maintenance pen so my total was approx. $160 - yikes. We got home and looked in our regular mirror and our teeth looked a bit better but not as white as they at Smiles & Beauty. About a week or 2 later my teeth looked the exact same as they had before. Very annoying. I'm not sure if it was just this place that sucks, or if all "teeth whitening" clinics suck.. but I won't be going back! Crest white strips it is!

    Back in September I had bought a teambuy for a 20 minute teeth whitening session and a credit…read moretowards a teeth whitening pen for $50. Ever since I got my braces removed about 2 years ago, I wanted to have my teeth whitened but didn't want to spend a fortune. I finally got around to redeeming it today and it was certainly an interesting experience. Be prepared to drool, a lot! My boyfriend came with and he had quite a few chuckles watching it all. First you compare your teeth color to a variety of samples to determine where you are at before the whitening. Then you are seated in a comfortable chair in front of a tv screen and asked to clean your teeth with this neat little finger wipe tool. Then you apply aloe cream to your gums and lips to protect them from the brightness of the light, then insert what looks like a gummy mouth guard, which has the gel in it. So you sit there for 10 minutes with this thing in your mouth and protective glasses on. It is apparently safe to swallow but it tastes bad. I swallowed a few times but it was impossible to not drool everywhere, good thing for the bib. After ten minutes you take the guard out and rinse/spit, then repeat all the steps again for another ten minutes. Everything is self administered with the direction of the assistant there. My teeth whitened about 2 shades, and the pen will maintain/continue to whiten my teeth. There is some tingling and sensitivity during/after the process but it goes away within hour or two. I probably would not pay the regular $99 per session here for my teeth whitening, but am glad I was able to save money with the teambuy. Also, make sure you have lunch or breakfast before your appointment because you should not eat for an hour or two afterward, and drink only water.

RMT Stephen Head owns and operates the business and is my favourite RMT in HRM! Stephen is friendly and professional. He has created a comfortable space and curated his staff to meet clients needs. He always makes sure I'm relaxed, warm enough and will even let me choose the music! After massages Stephem always makes recommendations on stretches, water intake and other helpful tips. Frequently they have offers on facebook or for last minute bookings but their prices are competitive, low enough to be below the reasonable customary charge as considered by Blue Cross and Sun Life medical plans. They can direct bill to most medical plans and uses an online booking system that emails reminders and confirmations, which are easy to cancel or reschedule. As an added bonus they offer aromatherapy with essential oils, customizing a scent to the mood you'd like or just using the oil you prefer. Downside for inaccessibility with the stairs to get to this second floor business but it's worth the hike.
