**OVERALL REVIEW**…read more The Melbourne/Palm Bay area has its fair share of legitimate spas for rest and relaxation. However pertaining to such, if you want a unique experience that is sure to make you feel relaxed and energized in a different way, then I have to stress the salt cave, specifically the Halo Salt Cave. Opening back in 2019, the Halo Salt Cave (which I will shorthand simply to Halo for the remainder of this review) has served the people with a more traditional or holistic approach to rest and relaxation. Halo provides three services: 45-minutes relaxation in their Himilayan salt cave, ionic foot bath, infrared light therapy either as a sauna or a tanning booth. The service I partook in the three times I been here is the salt cave itself, once on my own, once with my friend Tiffany, and the most-recent one with my mom. According to the employees there, the preperation for either service is generally the same. You take off your shoes and are given booties. Shoes are put in baskets under the benches in the prep areas. Personal belongings are put in lockers in which you hold onto the key. There is a little bit more prep for the foot spa and infrared therapy, but for the salt cave, they give you a choice of a light or thick blanket and you go into the cave. Take note the cave is technically a room that was designed to look like a darkened cave in the himilayas lit with candles. The floor has clusters of Himilayan salt. The ceiling looks like a starry night. There are eight recliners in the room just perpendicular to the door, four on one side and four on the other. Get adjusted into one of the recliners and put on the blanket on yourself to your desired comfort level. An employee will come back and place a dry towel behind your head on the chair and a warm damp towel behind your neck. There is a pair of headphones to your right if you want an amplified sound experience of ocean waves and humming. It is not necessary as the cave will play the same thing as on the headphones, but they are there just in case. After 45 minutes, the employee will let you know the session is done. They will need you to exit as they need to clean and sanitize the cave for the next session. There is also a sales floor area selling Himilayan salt lights, salt accessories, cooking salt slabs, soup, lotions, and much more. I personally like the soaps. On a sidenote, there are two single-serving restrooms that are clean and stocked. Both are unisex so no issue about waiting in line to use the toilet. But to be fair, this place is not exactly Disneyworld when it comes to activity. The only detail that could be an issue are the prices. The Halo Salt Cave itself is $35 per session. The other services are more expensive. For what you get, the pricetag can stack. Ultimately, I am going to give the Halo Salt Cave a perfect score of five-out-of-five stars. The service, the experience, and the prices - for what they are - are excellent across the board. I would definitely suggest this place for an alternative holistic approach to relaxation.

Upon entering, I was calmly greeted, checked-in, she went over my treatment plan and offered water and a warm neck pillow to start the relaxation. Mary was my esthetician, she came out to get me, walked me through everything (getting into the robe, taking bra off only if I'm comfortable with that) she stepped out to give me time to do that. I got into the bed with a blanket and the bed was warmed!! Perfect for the girlies with cold limbs. I opted into "open to conversation" and Mary was just the coolest woman! Our conversation flowed well and she went over how every product should feel and what it does for the skin which I really appreciated. I really enjoyed the whole experience, when I was checking out, I was offered a subscription plan but passed on that with no pressure. Would come and book with Mary again in a heartbeat!

When I got there and asked for Jenny I was sent in the room with someone else . Jenny then came in and just started massaging never ask what I wanted to be worked on and when I did tell them as they were massaging me they did not do as I asked . Then the other woman came back in and the two of them spoke in Asian over me for several minutes then Jen left the room and the Other Woman did the massage no matter how many times I told her it needed to be deeper and that I needed her to work on my back and my neck she continued to do other things instead such as scratching my head for longer than I have ever had . The massage I received felt more like a massage chair from Brookstone just up and down the back quickly with pressure . When I came out from the massage Jenny asked how it was and I expressed that it was not what I had expected she then tried to do some deep tissue while I was standing which just made me feel like I was getting pushed over and after paying she told me when I come back next time to ask for her brother he does Deeper massage . Obviously I was quite unhappy and certainly do not plan on returning to this Spa​

Excellent deep tissue. Clean and legit. Massage only, don't expect anything else. Ask for Jenny.read more
