I had heard about Ananda Spa through a friend whom I trust knows the industry like no one else ...So I decided to take her advice and get some pampering. I drove into town during rush hour traffic and after once around the block I found something right in front. The entrance was small and inviting like a little Zen boutique. I was greeted warmly at the desk and then approached graciously by the Esthetician Diane Oakley who gave me my signature facial. I was impressed by her instincts and felt she assessed my needs remarkably well. She was very pleasant and had such a nice calm voice I fell right into the "spa zone" and trusted her completely. Diane had the most nurturing touch I have ever experienced in a facial massage. The treatment room was like a sanctuary, I felt far removed from the hustle and bustle of urban life just steps away from the front door. I felt so confident with Diane that I scheduled an appointment for a Brazilian and Brow waxing for a week later. This time I came on a Sunday and discovered ample parking. I experienced the same serene feeling as I entered the spa and haven of the treatment room. But the most amazing part was Diane’s skill with waxing. I have been getting Brazilians for years at a very reputable spa in the Northend and have never had such an easy time with it as I did with Diane. Between Diane’s expertise and the products that she uses, I had a wonderfully thorough Brazilian with so little pain. And the time (much less than my usual hour) and wax applications were so much less (1-2 vs. 3-4) than at this other salon, I was so impressed! I recommend Ananda Spa highly and Diane Oakley will be my Esthetician for as long as I live and work in this city. My skin looks fantastic, I felt so rejuvenated and I'm hooked on the organic marine based product line. I even purchased some power repair cream. Anyone looking for a great facial and/or waxing (especially the dreaded Brazilians), go see Diane Oakley she's truly gifted!
Pros: Skilled Esthetician - thumbs way up!
Cons: Parking can be a little iffy on week days
