All about Spas thread 3

^ had a VERY BAD experience at The Spa BGC branch. Sobrang mean girls ng aestheticians at nabugbog ako sa masahe. Ang init init ng tubig na pinrepare adik lang kumukulo. Yung sumalubong samin ni hubby sa entrada to our room ni hindi friendly kesyo bata ba kaming tingnan (we're in our early 20s mukha kaming teens) yung treatment wala man lang maam blah blah wala naman akong ginawa sa kanya nagtatanong lang ako nang maayos. Bayad na kaya yung 5 thou mahigit before we even started. Kainis.  Hindi sinusunod ang preference ko sa massage pressure. Aray na nga ako wala lang. Yung girl na gumawa ng facial super pangit magmassage nako bwisit talaga di ako makapag react gaano kasi may facial mask ako when she was massaging me haller FACIAL lang work nya oa na kung may back massage e di sya marunong! I tried leaving feedback pero geez walang response. Nakakainis talaga. Mas ok pa sa Suriya Spa Tiendesitas. Mas mura pa yung couple package nila

I tried Shui Hilot Spa along Libis. So not satisfied with the experience! Ang ingay ingay ng mga attendants, yung isa nakikinig pa ng Charice Pempengco, with her earphones ha, and still rinig na rinig. I had to ask my attendant THRICE if she could ask her fellow attendant to please be quiet. Hindi rin mabango yung bedsheets nila. Parang natuyong pawis na ewan. Last and definitely not the least,  hindi ako natuwa sa massage. Parang regular massage lang when it was supposed to be HILOT and foot spa. Buti I got a deal from DealGrocer ata so yung 1,300+ na fee, naging 300+ lang. Never going back.

On the other hand, I really like Nuat Thai along Libis. Yung ambience syempre hindi kasing level ng The Spa, and customers are only separated by curtains but I really enjoyed the massage. They hit really painful areas and the massage was good. Respectful pa yung mga therapists.

Mandarine Spa in Alabang.  Soothing ambiance and good therapists.  Super relaxaing 1h 45 min body and foot reflex combo.. Complete with hot leg soak and hot towels.. Right now, they're still preparing their new place in Westgate, but you can visit them at their branch in Bellevue hotel.  The therapists know what they're doing.

^we go there too kapag gusto ni bf din magpamassage kasi yan lang so far ang nakakakuha ng gusto niya

[miss understood]

I have four spa/beauty treatments na nakaline-up from september 2012 onwards.

1. Swedish and Shiatsu massage with foot spa
MERCHANT: California Beau
LOCATION/BRANCH: Kamuning
EXPERIENCE: maganda ang foot spa, kasi nauna ako, ang aga ko nga eh. Kaya solo akong client nung pumunta ako and magada magtrabaho yung staff, magaan ang kamay niya.

Pero may napansin lang ako. Sa mga massage sessions ba ninyo, tinatanggal ang sapin sa butt? Sa mga naexperience ko kasi hindi. Nabigla ako kasi binaba nung nagmamasahe ang towel, showing off my butt cheeks and minasahe-masahe niya. Pero inis kong itinaas. GRRR, nainis talaga ako. feeling ko namolestya ako. Napatingin tuloy ako sa mga sulok-sulok kung may hidden camera. hehe.

Hinding-hindi na ako babalik dun. Ever!


2. Pan Pacific whitening - hindi ko pa nagagamit, bought it from Ensogo
3. Brightsmile Teeth Whitening - hindi ko pa nagagamit, bought it from CashCash Pinoy
4. Physical Theraphy session - hindi ko pa nagagamit, bought it from Beeconomic/Groupon

Share your excellent, good, funny and horror experiences from group buying sites' merchants.

Nakakasad lang kasi yung iba, dapat iniisip nilang chance nila ito to maximize the power of word of mouth, pero yung iba hindi nila alam to. Dapat kahit gaano kamura, yung best pa rin ang ipakita nila. Kasi kung mawala man ang mga group buying sites na nagbebenta ng vouchers and coupon ay babalikan pa rin sila ng mga tao because they deliver and maganda services nila.

^ yup, they usually pull down the shorts or whatever's covering your buttocks to massage it. some therapists naman ask me if i want them to massage my buttocks, others assume na i would want to. the best thing to do would be to tell the therapist beforehand that you don't want them to touch your butt. in my experience, i never felt  that i was taken advantage of or that the therapist was unprofessional, thank God.

last night mom and I wento to Nuat Thai here at ortigas ext.
SO far I liked their service. We availed of their foot reflexology for 1 hr.
Before the masseuse started her foot massage, minassage nya muna yung arms ko and after that, nrelax na ko haha eh kasi tamang tama nngangalay din arms ko. On my foot massage, she also used a stick to press on my toes and some points on my foot. diba sa foot natin meron talaga jan points connected to our stomach, head etc. Meron talaga xang point n upon pressing I felt something on my head.parang may biglang ngflow. then after she's done with my feet she gave me a back massage naman.
ayun, it's really surprising that we had those additional services that I don't normally get with other spa, sa iba kasi when you say foor reflex, foot massage lang talaga gagawin and in fairness, reflexology talaga sinced alam nila yung points sa feet na kailangan ipressure.
The spa itself is just really small just like what I see in other branches, rooms are only separated by curtains.
The are doesn't really matter to me, as long as cozy and relaxing

[nixie-devyn]

I also like Balinese massage in the Bali Palace. Just the right massage for me as in nakakatulog ako. It's not too hard, just right. I've had my foot reflex here, ayun, massage lang talaga, hinahanap ko kasi yung like sa nuat thai na may points na pnpress talaga. pero body massage I prefer it here.

Meron pa ba kayong alam na ngooffer ng balinese massage? meron ako nakita sa body tunes megamall kaya lang it's too pricey there.

Up for this thread. Any sisses na nakapag-try na sa Blue water day spa in Morato near abs cbn?

[mikaela325]

Which is better kaya sa the spa? Their traditional hilot or the deep tissue massage.

[snix]

may regalo sakin gc's sa ahavia spa sa may greenhills..ittry pa lang namin pag nakakuha na kami pareho ng sked..i've heard nothing but good reviews sa kanila

[bettylane]

Pls beware of La Maison-massage from eastwood city, nagpost sila sa ensogo and now they are closed. kawawa naman yun mga nakabili sa kanila ng madaming vouchers na gaya ko. so wag po kayo paloloko

[PurplePeach]

Please recommend a nice spa around quezon city.  Ok lang if expensive, basta worth it. Baka nakaka stress naman kapag di sila marunong. May maid ako dati, masahista na sa expensive spa around Quezon city. I dont know why i feel irritated. TIA

[ieiky]

Binabalik balikan kong spa ay ang the SPA trinoma branch. Malapit lang yung samin. Ok naman ang service nila and I can say na it's very sulit.

I've also tried tocarre spa (antel) sa makati. Medyo pricey lang sila pero sobrang ok yung place.

Hi sisses, sorry for the long post.
I tried WENSHA SPA, i had two visits.
For 780 pesos you get to enjoy 1hr whole body massage/sauna/jacuzzi/ and unlimited buffet.
for my first visit, okay naman pero i don't like the food, naubusan pa nga kami we had to wait bago ma-refill.
second visit ko naman, it's my birthday so i decided to pamper myself, i got the package of 780 plus whole leg waxing.
So kumain muna kami before we go to the jacuzzi and sauna, okay naman yung jacuzzi pero nakakailang kasi you wear nothing, bawal kahit undies lang, well, the people there don't really mind anyway.
Sa sauna naman, too steamy, nakakasuffocate yung steam, at masyadong mainit.
Before i have the massage i will have my legs waxed first because you can't have it other way, pero nung i asked the attendant, sabi niya may nakapila daw so i have to wait, it was 5:30 back then and i'm scheduled for 6:00. After 30 minutes i asked ulit and she said na di daw pwede kasi may nauna daw sakin.
The heck i waited and waited and waited, so i just got it cancelled, and just go with the massage.
This is what i don't like, yung nagmassage, i guess it depends nalang kung sino yung therapist na maasign sayo, parang hinihimas niya lang, i asked for a hard one still parang wala siyang gana magmasahe, i don't feel relaxed at all.
Overall, i would say na dapat ayusin nila ang management, di sila organized, but i'm not saying na i will not go back. Baka minalas lang talaga ako nung araw na yun. Any other recommended spa? Cheaper but the best? TIA.
