From the moment I walked into Ohm, I felt very pampered...from the warm, friendly greeting to the right-sized robe and slippers (they had asked me for my shoe size in advance), to the relaxing lounge area...and then came the best massage I've ever had! I usually go for either European or warm stone massages, but this time decided to go for Ohm's custom massage at the recommendation of the receptionist I spoke with when I first called - and boy, was it custom!! My wonderful masseuse, Nicole, took a few minutes at the beginning of the session to find out what I was looking for (medium to firm pressure focusing on my neck and shoulders) and then proceeded to work her magic...soothing aromatherapy, deep tissue for the really bad spots, hot towels and finally peppermint oil. I was tingling for hours afterwards!! To top it all off, she even gave me some tips to avoid stiffness and soreness on an ongoing basis (epsom salt baths, increased water intake, heat pads on my shoulders for 10 to 15 minutes followed by neck stretches). After the heavenly massage, I was treated to a wonderful mani-pedi combo by Jojo...the sweetest nail tech you'll ever meet. While giving me a foot massage, she even gave me some health tips based on her reflexology knowledge...plus I got to watch "Becoming Jane" - a total chick flick if ever there was one & I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's been several days and my manicure is still perfect & I really liked the fact that Jojo wrapped my feet prior to me putting socks and winter boots on, so that the pedicure wouldn't get ruined...which it didn't. I'm headed back for a honey facial next week & hopefully Nicole can fit me in again for another custom massage right after...HIGHLY recommend this place!!!
