I was on vacation in St. Simons and a muscle injury making walking painful flared up and I needed…read morerelief. I found Misty's Element Massage and its rave reviews on Yelp. I was easily able to book an appointment online for the next morning, at 10:00 the night before, for a sports massage. The staff at the front desk could not have been more professional and friendly when I checked in and only had to wait just a few minutes for Charlene, my masseuse to be ready. The facility is spotless, meticulously maintained, and COVID conscious. My masseuse, Charlene, was unbelievable. She stretched my problem areas, really worked through the tightness and stiffness in my entire body, focusing on the injured leg. I am not exaggerating when I say that this is probably the best massage I ever had. I walked out of there feeling so much better, and it was the first time in weeks without a limp on the affected leg. The first thing I will do when I return to St. Simons is make an appointment with Charlene for at least one massage.

After having gone eleven months without a massage (and did I mention that I sit at a desk for way…read moretoo long a day?), my back was so knotted that I woke up one morning recently and could barely walk. I checked out the local options on Yelp and opted for Balance. And I LOVE THEM!!! #NewConvertHere!! I called for a same-day massage, and got an early evening appointment (another bonus -- services on St. Simons can shut down as early as 4 pm [#IMeanReally??]) for a 90-minute deep tissue with Megan, who. Is. Awesome. I mean, BEYOND. FYI: I prefer a super-deep tissue massage with very strong hands -- I have a muscular frame and it takes serious pressure to get my knots unwound. At first I was concerned that 90 minutes wouldn't be long enough to GET all of them OUT this go-round, but Megan delivered one of the best massages I have ever had (on three continents). And I had serious issues with tension in my lower back and hip flexors! She recommended a warm bath with Epsom Salt as follow up for my newly-knotless frame, which was a great idea, but I didn't. . . and I still felt awesome the next day!!! Balance isn't a white-robe-and-fluffy-slippers kind of Fifth Avenue Major Spa Moment, but the decor is clean, makes an effort and is perfectly fine.

First, there is no way to make an appt except online. There is a phone number that asks you to leave a message but no one checks it. 3 phone messages over a total of two weeks with no return calls. Scheduled a massage and the masseuse cancels with only 2 days notice. My mom is OK rescheduling but specifically asks for a female. They ignore her completely and schedule her with the only male there. When she arrives the key lock entry is broken and she can't get in. Since there is no phone she just has to wait for someone. When she finds out the masseuse is male, instead of apologizing to her, the supervisor says "His hands are bigger so he will do a better job." What?! They have no idea what trauma my mom might have been through with a male. They pressure her (and bring the guy in the room I might add). There is absolutely nothing "therapeutic" about this place. Steer clear of the poor communication, unethical practices, and sheer bad business model of this place. might add)

Susan took me back to my room, and told me that the massage table had a red light feature and asked if I would like her to turn it on. I said sure! That would be great, thanks. Nothing else was mentioned and she flipped the switch to turn it on. She then left, I got undressed, and got onto the bed to wait for my massage. Halfway through the massage, she told me she was going to use cupping on my upper back because it was tight. I said okay. Susan never once mentioned it was an additional cost. Later, as I am up at the front desk checking out, (for the first time) she mentions that the red light on the bed and the cupping were an additional $30 combined. I was very confused, and said "I didn't know that those things were an additional cost." She replied and said "I know, I didn't mention it." Needless to say I was flabbergasted. Then she said "it's hard to talk about money when you're relaxed and on the massage table." (After I left I thought to myself, I wasn't even on the massage table yet when she asked me if I wanted her to turn on the red light feature.) Because of my confusion as I was checking out, she said she'd "do me a favor and discount the additional $30 cost down to $20." I was extremely uncomfortable, felt put on the spot, paid, and left. I couldn't shake the feeling of being taken advantage of, so I emailed her that night, explaining this and how uncomfortable I felt. I asked if she would be willing to refund me the additional cost, and only charge me for what I originally booked: an hour long Swedish massage. She ignored my email and the follow up email I sent 3 days later. I didn't ask her to do these additional things, she offered them up without disclosing the cost. And at no point during the online booking process were these things disclosed. You're given the option to add on the sauna or NSDR, both of which I declined. Such an awful feeling to have information kept from you throughout the entire process and then sprung on you last minute. I just hope this review can help prevent this from happening to someone else in the future.
