The Spa...for the woman who cares

04/30/2008 Posted by HeyFroggy

Absolute Bliss. Been there twice and both times have been fantastic. The facial is wonderful and so very relaxing. The Head and Shoulder massage is heavenly. Joyce is fantastic at what she does and does not try to sell you a load of products, but gives her advice in a very casual, non pushy way. Can't wait to go back again for more pampering. Thank you.

Pros: Very Relaxing, pleasant atmosphere. Great Advice.

I first went to The Spa.....as a gift from my son and his wife for Mother's Day and have continued to go since. I have done a facial, pedicure, and mostly massages from Joyce and her professional staff. I have always had great service with a special touch on each occasion. It is a great, private atmosphere, relaxing, and a wonderful way to get away from the busy lives we all lead. Schedule a special session with a friend or family member and enjoy the time together, or just pamper yourself. Joyce can set up the occasion to meet your needs. You won't be disappointed. I highly recommend it.

Pros: Ambience, convenience, parking, service, friendly, wholesome

I normally don't write reviews, but I just had to, this time. There has been so many great reviews about Joyce and her spa and the experience being so wonderful. But I just have to say that my experience was TOTALLY not something to rave about. I had my first appt. cancelled less then 24 hours before and she said that she was so sorry, that she would throw in a 30min complimentary massage. I was excited about that, so to me to reschedule, was no big deal. My appt. time finally came and I was getting rejuvenation facial. She was out of the room more then she was in the room. She massaged my face and shoulders with some special oil, she washed my face, she used steam and she used the Vitamin C/Green Tea mask, but that was it. When she looked at my paperwork in the beginning, she said that she would look at my face under a light and perscribe the best facial treatment for my skin. That NEVER happened. When the mask was on my face, she was out of the room for the whole 10-15min. When she put steam on my face, she was out of the room the entire time. I think Joyce was in the room, for only about a total of 15min the entire time. And that was only to spray the aromatherapy mist, wash my face or apply whatever mask so that she could leave for the next 10-15min. Needless, to say that the complimentary massage that she said that she would throw in, for cancelling on me in the beginning, NEVER happened. Then when I was ready to leave and she has the water for you to drink, she proceeded to lecture me of why I needed to drink my water. I told her my opinions about it and she definitely did not like someone disagreeing with her. I would never go back or recommend this place. I have had other facials at different facilities and to me she seems like a fraud, because in real facials, they actually look at your skin, do extractions. Anyone, can throw masks on your face, spritz aromatherapy in the air and wash your face. TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY, in my opinion!.....

Pros: NONE!

Cons: Service was TERRIBLE!

I have been treated differently... I bought a 5-treatment package and she only gave me 4 treatments. When I asked for detailed dates she gave me the dates that two facials done only one-week apart. Overall she is very skilled and knowledged about skins. I'd continue to buy another package but I guess she doesn't care.

I live in New York and my girlfriend lives in Seattle. For her birthday I suprised her with a "Girl's Day Out' Package at the Spa for both her and her mother. They absolutely raved about the experience and loved every minute of it. When I told the owner (Joyce) who and why I was buying the package for, she even went out of her way to order a birthday cake for my girlfriend. I highly recommend this place to anyone! (especially other guys out there looking to get their significant other a great spa gift).

What a fabulous experience! Not only a highly experienced aesthetician, but a total comfort zone. The Spa has it all, relaxing music and surroundings, aromatherapy and neck and shoulder massage. My skin glowed and felt wonderful, can't wait to go back this month! Thanks Joyce for your TLC!

Pros: Experienced aesthetician, quiet, relaxing environment, wonderful

Cons: None

I have heard nothing but great things about the massages at The Spa...for the woman who cares. I can't wait to get mine soon. I also have to say that the owner has been gracious to the community of Bothell, WA! She has donated several certificates to the UWB for numerous events, and all the staff members here love the services! Thank you!

I feel very at ease having my leg waxing done here. I receive very friendly, personalized service at a reasonable price. I also received good recommendations for detoxification and skin products. The place is clean, the atmosphere pleasant and inviting.

I just had a facial at the Spa for the Woman and my experience was wonderful. The atmosphere was warm and inviting and I left relaxed with glowing skin. But what I love most about this spa is the time Joyce took to discuss any concerns I had about my skin and then to provide the information I needed to address these concerns in a natural and healthy way to keep my skin glowing all of the time.

This was probably one of the best massages I've ever received! I was a little surprised that they asked so much detail regarding my health history, but now I know why...the massage addressed every point in my body that needed attention. I also really enjoyed the small space and personal attention....it's really nice to know that you are the one they are focusing all of their attention on (it feels a bit narcisistic saying that, but it does!).....it really makes a difference in the level of personal attention that you receive. I do wish that I'd had more time to get there and relax, but with the upcoming expansion that is planned I'm hoping that I'll be able to do so in the future...because I *definitely* plan on coming back. I'm so glad that looking on here led me to finding this great little place!

Pros: individual attention, friendliness, attention to detail

Cons: parking was a bit tough
