Quite honestly I'm somewhat ambivalent on my experience. Alyssa was incredible. She was nice,…read moreattentive and explained what to expect for my first visit. The room was incredibly clean and the pod was centered in the room so it wasn't difficult moving around before or after my soak. The only thing I work they offered was some leave in conditioner treatment for us gals who have longer hair, because your hair will be tangled! Even though they offer conditioner and combs... the combs are flimsy and really didn't help to untangle anything. My other observation is that the owner or manager (I didn't catch his name) was quite unprofessional, in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, he seemed nice enough, but his sales approach was pushy, and quite honestly, off putting. It was not personable whatsoever. He went through their holiday promotions so fast that every person I observed that he helped were confused and signed up for memberships that they were clearly confused on. After he left, the one lady even mentioned to Alyssa that she wasn't quite sure what she had signed up for. As someone who has worked in corporate sales for over 20+ years I can tell you he was selling just to make a sale which is sad because the memberships hould be marketed as an experience- that's where the added value comes in and will prompt people to buy a larger membership and retain that membership for a longer period of time. Other than the pushy sales approach my experience was good. As someone who has a chronic pain condition and practices several holistic and alternative measures to help offset flareups, I can see how it would help others to relax and rejuvenate.

I came to Elvolation because I felt stuck in a number of aspects of my life, emotionally and spiritually. In our first session, Shannon innately picked up what was inhibiting my growth and offered me a few choices on how to work together. I began working with her using crystalline consciousness technique (CCT) and integrated energy therapy (IET). Within the first few days after our first session, I began to feel better. Shannon helped me learn from and let go of the past, and see the beauty in who I am. She helped me bring a more positive energy into my life and provided practical tools for the future. My sessions with Shannon have proved invaluable on my journey to personal growth and healing and I am incredibly thankful for her kind heart and intuitive abilities. If you are looking for some guidance with a loving spirit, she's your person :)
