We did the couples massage. We had Jody and Michael. Oh my goodness, I would book Michael 1000 times over again! My boyfriend said Jody was amazing and he would absolutely go back to her! We both felt like we were just melting away. Completely relaxed. So comfortable. Making the appointment initially was super easy too. Even the receptionist was extremely friendly and inviting. We will 100% be back again!

We did a couples massage a few years ago and it was really good. The atmosphere was great, very relaxing and the massage therapists did a phenomenal job. We both left there feeling like we were in heaven.

Today I had a massage with Rasheem and I could not be happier. He did a fantastic job working out all the knots in my upper and lower back. Rasheem was able to locate my problem areas the minute the message began and I walked out feeling great! I cannot recommend Rasheem enough and will definitely be seeing him again!!
