fully enjoyed my experience.
by andrealyle
I called and scheduled a same day appointment for their signature facial and swedish massage. On their website they have an ad that offers 10% off same day appts. but I didn't recieve mine and didn't realize it until I got home. However, I was late for my appt. so maybe the discount doesn't apply in that situation. That being said, the massage was one of the best I have ever experienced. My therapist Holly was very knowledgable and attentive. I can't say enough good things about her. My facial was so relaxing that I think I actually fell asleep for a little while. I do regret not being able to enjoy their quiet room for a little longer and I'm bummed that I didn't recieve my complimentary glass of wine but again, thats due to my tardiness and not to lack of customer service. The front desk was actually very nice and accomodating and didn't make me feel uncomfortable at all for being late. I fully enjoyed my experience and would definately recommend this spa to anyone who's looking to relax.
- Pros: best massage ever!
- Cons: no parking, didn't get my discount :(

Bad gift-giving experience- pea in the pod massage
by Jaimsies
I had a massage at the Woodhouse about a year ago and really enjoyed it.
When it was time to buy a gift for a pregnant friend, I decided to stretch my budget to get her a gift certificate for the pea-in-the-pod massage at the Woodhouse, thinking it would be nothing short of excellent and relaxing.
After my friend had the massage, she told me about her experience:
She had to ask for a clean pillow because the one they gave her had some yellow gunk on it.
They didn't have pregnancy beds with the hole in the middle! Her massage took place while she was laying on her sides- how is that comfortable? How is that going to help my very pregnant friend relax and get a good back rub?
I have never heard of a prenatal massage with no belly table, and neither had my friend. She had even gone to some other less expensive places throughout her pregnancy and ALWAYS had a belly table.
I called and spoke with the spa manager, who's attitude was pretty much "tough, it's the way we do it here." I won't be spending more money at the Woodhouse. I would think in this economy spas would be trying to keep their customers, but I guess the Woodhouse doesn't see it that way.
- Pros: pretty building
- Cons: bad prenatal massage, customer service, overpriced
