I am…read morea challenge for any masseuse, because I have old injuries, plus a physically demanding occupation, that make my neck, shoulders and back stiff and "knotty" and leaving there today I felt literally the best I have felt in months ( maybe even years). I plan to book regular sessions to keep me feeling this good and keep my stiff old joints limber and feeling fine. Can't say enough nice things about everyone there...everyone I met was so kind and welcoming and the Aveda products they use makes the whole place smell fabulous. I love the new location ( just across the St. Croix River in Taylors Falls MN) in a gracious old home, and I felt my tension levels drop pretty much as soon as I walked through the door. This is a great place for anyone to visit alone or as a girls spa day!

If you have time, there are a number of fun shops and restaurants to explore close by and there's a park on the river about a block from spa.

Even though it's far away from where I live, I think I found my new hair stylist (Stephanie)!!!!!!!

Where do I start with La Grande Salon? I've been coming to this salon on and off since well before…read morethey were seated lakeside. I first started doing business with them in 1999 while I was still in HS and they were seated next to Kodiak coffee in Forest Lake... I've had phenomenal hairstylists' as well as not so great over the years. Within the last two years I've started going again more regularly since I decided to put some blonde back in my hair. Jordan is great. She has an awesome personality and she listens well. She doesn't tell you what to do or talk down to you. I highly recommend her in particular. I have had some issues over the years. They've been enough to keep me a way for a while, but somehow I end up always going back. I did however have one issue in particular that management handled well. I've been happy with the overall management and clearly they are doing something right, as there are a few faces that have been there since I started going in the 90s! I do think you will be overall happy going to La Grande Salon. They also have a cute little store within that's worth checking out.

When I inquired, it was only then I was told that my person was sick and I would be worked in. After 30 minutes I had to leave! They made me late for activities, I had to find someone else last minute to get my hair and make up done, and there was no explanation, apology or sense of empathy what so ever. Terribly arrogant and unprofessional.

Prefer very strong deep therapy massages focused on problems vs total body with lack of focus. Found this requires bigger and strong hands. Intense 90 min work on lower back, glutes, quads and hamstrings. Some odd positions to stretch muscles and break up fascia adhesions. All in all an exceptional massage. Next day I felt I had miracle back cure, and relief lasted though drive back. Alex operates out of his home in a converted garage studio, extremely modest, but clean and importantly warmed enough to avoid chills or drafts.
