Wake Foot is an incredible concept. Mom and I had a super relaxing experience and our massage therapist was wonderful. We did the 45 minute soak plus 20 minute massage and walked out of there feeling totally rejuvenated and relaxed. Mom also loves the products she bought in the shop (Lavender Honey scrub). Everyone was friendly and accommodating. Thank you!

I dont usually relax enough to feel I could fall asleep anywhere in public. But something about the soft music, lighting, warm neck wrap, body position in the chair and tub of warm water my feet were soaking in made me feel like I could almost have fallen asleep. Then came the massage. Lisa was very meticulous in how she worked each muscle and tendon. It was comfortable and relaxing and my legs felt smooth and better hydrated after the visit. The room for the treatment is not curtained off but everyone was relaxing and it didnt disturb my feeling comfortable despite being in with others.

Smitten with this place. Saw it online and knew I had a make a birthday appointment for my sister and I. From the time you walk in until the time you leave it's pure Bliss. You're greeted with slippers, service, and food menu. We chose different soaks with the add on leg massage and they were both amazing. We had Kelsey and she was the best at what she does. I am on the shorter side and it was a bit hard to hang legs over the soaking tub. Had the chair been a smidge higher that would have felt better but overall super fabulous. We also ordered the pot of blackberry tea which was delicious.

I recently took my mother to Wake Foot Sanctuary for a morning of relaxation and pampering that was the start of a perfect day together. From the moment we walked in the door to the attentive lovely women who took care of us for the hour we were there, we were greeted and treated with professionalism, warmth, and kindness. This is a special place that focuses on relaxation, self-care, relaxation, and providing each customer with a sensory experience like none other. A pot of hot tea with honey, an herbal foot soak, a shoulder, neck, and foot massage - run don't walk to Wake Foot Sanctuary - your

We came here after a massage to celebrate my fianc's 35th birthday. The atmosphere, customer service, and soaks were amazing. They even gave him a small birthday gift as we were checking out! 10/10 would recommend and if you can get a foot massage - even better!

I called a few times and no one answered so I left a message and received a call right back- I recommend leaving a message. Once we arrived for our appointment, I realized why they called me back instead of answering, it is so nice and quiet and they are very cautious about disturbing those having a spa treatment done, which I appreciated! We had a very relaxing foot bath, the aromatherapy was wonderful! We opted for massages of lower leg + feet & head + neck + shoulders. I was so relaxed I fell asleep! Both of our masseuses were so very kind and made sure we were comfortable with warm neck
