I have been visiting Dow for over a year at her existing clinic and am looking forward to seeing…read moreher at the new clinic which based on the photos will be a thai oasis in the south of Glasgow. Dow offers a wide range of massage types from thai aroma oil massage to traditional thai 'stretching' massage. She has loads of experience and trained at one of the top massage schools in Thailand. A visit to Dow is always a tonic. Not only does she totally chill me out she has also made a huge improvement in the back aches and tension that have plagued me for years. I cannot recommend her enough. At the new clinic Dow will have another Thai Massage therapist so if you fancy going for a massage with your partner or mates then she can book you in at the same time. Pricewise its good value at £40 for an hour massage and cheaper than other city massage outlets.

I've been meaning to get a massage for at least 18 months (coincidentally, the same amount of time…read moreI took up roller derby and started getting battered about!). I finally booked in for one online after seeing Elizabeth tweeting. I like people who are good at social media, and this (and her user friendly, helpful website) were the reason I chose her. I actually forgot to check where she was based until the morning. I knew it was the city centre but hadn't checked where! Thankfully she is right near Buchanan Street underground/Queen Street station so it was super easy to get to. It's easy to find too, it's right near the Carlton George and has good signage. Entering the Glasgow Treatment Rooms, you get the smell of a massage place - I think they must all use the same candles! You press the buzzer for the person you're seeing and take a seat. She popped out pretty quickly to say hello, and gave me a sheet to fill out with questions about allergies etc. Not long after I was shown into the massage room. The room was spacious and warm and looked really comfy. Just one massage table in the middle of the room with a couple of seats for your pre-massage chat. She went through a few questions about whether I had any particular pain to address and what my preference was. She was super friendly, helpful and bubbly so I was pretty relaxed. I didn't tell her at the time but I can get quite uncomfortable getting massages if I don't feel happy with the person, meaning I end up being really tense, but thankfully there was none of that here! I got a full body massage, and she focused on my legs (I get a lot of quad tightness from roller derby) as well as my neck and shoulders (hunching while working on the laptop!). It was relaxing and I felt comfortable at all stages, she would explain why she was massaging my glutes (hamstring goes all the way up there) and had good chat, but not too much chat that I couldn't relax! She also managed to unpop (not a medical term) the knot I've had in my shoulder which was an awesome feeling. Afterwards she had a chat about areas of concern - unsurprisingly, my quads and hips from skating. I've also been told this about a physio so I wasn't surprised! I'm planning another visit at the end of the month where she is going to be a bit more heavy handed on me! I felt super relaxed and a lot looser afterwards, and because she used cream rather than oil, I didn't feel greasy all day. For a 1 hour massage it was £40 which I think is great value. Importantly, she does't have card facilities so make sure you have cash.

Visited the spa for the Thermal Experience as a Christmas treat for the mother. I got a nice wee…read moredeal from Itison, which gave us 3 glorious hours luxuriating in their sauna, steam room, jacuzzi & hydro pool. The only, very small, letdown was that the Crystal Steam Room was out of order. My mum also booked is for a massage afterwards, as recommended by the staff. From start to finish the experience was wonderful, the staff friendly and professional, and, with the exception of one very loud patron who's volume control was our of order, very relaxing. After our massage we were lead to the Drift Away room, complete with tea, loungers and beds! Honestly, if it weren't for the fact that our tummies were growling we could have stayed there all day! Also or would have been nice to have our complimentary Prosecco there, whilst lounging in our robes, rather than having to get ready and have it in the reception area afterwards.

This used to be my all time favourite spa. Ok so I'm not your usual spa type, I'm neither a hen…read moreparty nor a lady who lunches but after training, tough mudder or a rugby match; the water jets on tired muscles feel amazing. But the last few times I've been have been a little bit of a disappointment to be honest. Sometimes the underwater jets wouldn't work, then it would be the massage jets were off or on one occasion the steam-room wasn't working. There wasn't a single day I was there in a six week period that there wasn't at least one major piece of the Thermal experience which wasn't working. Then there is the small things. The keypad locks on the lockers have never worked right and once I even had to ring reception and ask them to send someone down as it had locked away my clothes and refused to open. Not a very relaxing experience as you stand dripping in your towel. And on my last visit the one and only hair-dryer in the men's dressing room was broken. Minor issues, but for a place which charges £65 for a single days access to the thermal experience you expect everything to be perfect. Our membership also included access to the gym which I wasn't impressed by. The free weights available are minimal with the heaviest dumbbell being only 10kg. There are a few cardio machines and a few weight machines such as a chest press, again with very low maximum weight (40kg). It is incredibly small, but as you're likely to be the only person in there it probably won't matter. The thermal experience used to be superb, and I really hope it sorts out the issues in the future. But for me it simply isn't worth the (reduced) membership fee anymore.

This spa is excellent in many ways ,firstly the gorgeous smell from all the oils being used before you even reach the reception is amazing and there is soothing music playing which I feel instantly relaxes me .The staff are so friendly and chat away making me feel really comfortable . I have had the following treatments so far,Jessica gel nails, which i loved so much I just couldn't stop looking at them, the hot stone body massage which is so relaxing and the staff are really experienced as you can feel all those lumps n bumps from stress are gone. I regularly get my eyebrows waxed and tinted and i have had the spray tans .My latest was the Botox ! Which i am loving as I feel so fresh faced now . You can purchase gifts in the spa which I have also done ,the espa gift sets I use the oils in my bath and they make my skin smell amazing and depending on what type of oil I use wether it be relaxing oils to energising oil it's guaranteed to do the trick. I can't wait to add another treatment to my list it's the best spa in Glasgow Thanks Yvonne x

I don't think there could be such a personalised and thorough treatment elsewhere. As another reviewer has said here, the whole experience begins with a thorough consultation at the outset to find out exactly what you need. I loved the way she was able to suit my comfort levels - I wanted a firm massage to sort out my knots but not a 10/10 pummelling straight off! Anyway - it was perfectly pitched and in tune with what I was looking for. She is very intuitive and a very natural and gifted communicator so I didn't feel shy or awkward at all at any stage. She really is in a class of her own with the service she provides - a stress relieving nugget of gold in the West End of Glasgow!
