She was very loud, and when her therapist came by to ask if she was ready, she loudly said, "NO. I was having some really bad neck and shoulder problems and he made sure to take good care in working out those areas.There was a woman that ended up taking a call right as she went into the room. Evan was who I ended up with, and he was great! Very soft spoken, but made sure that I was comfortable, and was sure to ask if the depth at which he was massaging was okay for me. Since it was my first time, I told them I didnt care if I had a female or male therapist. The gal at the front desk was extremely kind and got me checked in right away. I tippef more than I planned on because it turned out better than expected.
Over all a very relaxing, professional atmosphere. I could tell they wanted to get started so we could get our moneys worth (which we definitely did), but maybe in the future have a cup of cold water with the bucket of water just case in the water it too hot for the customer. It was still a nice soaking when I got to finally put my feet in, but would have been nicer if I could have the whole time. I couldn't soak my feet until maybe 15 minutes before they took the bucket away to start massaging my feet. I let the lady know and when she felt it, she said it was hot but neither of our people went to get different water or at least get cup of cold water to cool it down. One con I could say was that the water they had for my feet to soak in was very hot at first. I got the membership so we will definitely be back. My back can get very tight and sore and it was a great way to get deep into my tissue. My guy even stood on my back which was different for me, but surprisingly very nice. It was very relaxing and could tell that our therapists new what they were doing. My boyfriend and I did the 90 minute couples combo massage in the VIP room for our anniversary. I tipped beyond that but like I said Michelle was amazing and I left feeling better than I have in months.I made an appointment for this coming Saturday with Michelle and cannot wait to go back for a couples massage! Some people don’t like this I find this perfectly acceptable because some people aren’t sure what to tip. The is a sign in the lobby that explains gratuity and suggests $10-$20 for a 60 minute service. The $20 is worth the future savings to me. Pricing: Very competitive prices my 90 minute massage was $76 that included my $20 yearly membership which entitles me to a $56 90 minute massages. I would definitely recommend calling in advance. This place was also very clean which is a must in my book!Setting an appointment: This was super easy, I called in same day, told them my preferred time and they worked with me to get me in 30 minutes after my requested time. I loved the hanging lanterns and instrumental music.
I’m comfortable with that set up but I know some might not be. There was no stranger next to me or anything like that. Each room has 2 beds I’m assuming for couples massages. It is one giant room, however the individual “rooms” are pergolas surrounded by bamboo with dividing screens and pull curtains leading in and out. Personally I loved it, it reminded me of being in a courtyard. The atmosphere: May be uncomfortable for some people. #1 wear a face mask upon arriving#2 lay between the two towels not under the brown bed coveringMy massage: It started with no contact compression which was just what I needed from my yoga practice, moved into a Swedish style massage, followed by hot stone, flipped over, foot soak, face/head massage, Swedish on arms and legs combined with stretching and finally foot reflex and calves. I was a newby to Star foot spa and she made me feel right at home even though I made a few mistakes. I usually get them every 2 weeks but then I moved to Vegas and COVID happened, needless to say it had been 6 months since I had one. She was amazing and this was probably the best massage I’ve ever had. I just got a 90 minute massage today with Michelle.
