local to here in Clayton I'd suggest Botanicals II As to why the wife has loved them every time she has been.
I have only been to one spa, Skin Sense and I love it. I love the atmosphere and being able to shower afterwards. A lot of places that do massages, but aren't full spas don't offer that. A shower for me is a must afterward. Gotta get all that oil off. Just my two cents.
Mitchell's at Cary Towne Center is awesome...massage, nails, lunch, pampering...a little expensive, but she'll be treated like a queen. Nice job on picking the gift!
Alossi's Renewal Spa in Garner by the new Anfessa'a is always running specials on facebook and it is locally own and ran. The owner works there and truly does a great job. I also Love Skin Sense.... Not big on the Raleigh location but like the Cary one better (nicer people - lol)
Probably Swedish. Ive had a few deep tissues and they hurt Mostly just some pampering. She deserves it for putting up with me.
Moonshadow in Cary is a lot better than the big-box chains. They also got voted Citysearch #1 in the Triangle a couple years back 466-9494
requested a deep tissue massage once b/c i was seriously tensed up. aside from labor and a broken arm, nothing has hurt me worse...temporarily, though. i felt a lot better a couple minutes after it was over. but the swedish massages over the years had similar enough effects. of course halfway through one massage i went into labor for real...but that's a different story altogether.
If you call or stop by Botanicals out on Hwy 70, be sure to schedule it with Bruce... he is wonderful!! He is an older gentleman, very professional, this is what he is doing for his retirement. I think an hour and a half massage is $95 (don't hold me to that though)
Agreed! And Michael at the North Raleigh location is the bomb! I've been going to him for 3 years now.
