Anyone who appreciates a decent massage will be utterly disappointed with Azure.
1) The actual massage rooms are so small there's no chair on which to put your clothes.
2) The therapist didn't check with me to make sure the light or music were acceptable.
3) There is no room at the end of the table for the massage therapist to reach your feet, so don?t expect to have your feet touched.
4) The therapists don't use bolsters for your knees or feet, and there are no eye pillows or masks for when you flip onto your back.
5) The therapist was fine at generalized ?rubbing? but I got the sense she didn't have much idea about what was underneath my skin. Her strokes were vague and didn?t target specific muscle groups.
6) Most of what my therapist did in terms of strokes wasn?t symmetrical. So she made certain moves on one side of my body that weren?t replicated on the other.
7) I told the therapist that I had a pain in my lower right back but she only spent an extra 15 second there.
8) The therapist didn?t touch my head or face once.
9) The therapist sniffled throughout the session and I thought I felt a drip on my back at one point. I hope I was mistaken.
10) The therapist never asked how anything was until we got to the end, and then she said, ?Are you feeling relaxed??
11) I mentioned my dissatisfaction to the person out front and he was entirely unconcerned. I told him that the head and feet were important areas of the body to miss and he simply said they concentrate on the back and let me walk out feeling dissatisfied.
I?ve had hundreds of massages in my life and this is at or near the bottom. I should have been suspicious when I noticed the advertisement on the wall for Botox. Don?t waste your money, folks, they?re going to be out of business in six months.
Pros: Ambiance is acceptable
Cons: Everything else
