点评:I've had plenty of spa treatments over the years, and because I used to work as a spa therapist myself, I'm probably a tougher customer than most. I notice the little things technique, confidence, pressure, flow, and that "magic touch" that can't really be taught.
My treatment was with Amanda, and she absolutely nailed it.
My back was in a terrible state before I arrived, so I asked for proper pressure rather than a gentle, relaxing massage. Amanda definitely understood the assignment! 😂 For a brief moment I questioned my choices... but I also knew she had found exactly the areas that needed attention. It was one of those "I love you and hate you at the same time" moments that anyone who enjoys a proper deep tissue massage will understand.
The best part was that it never felt like she was just following a routine. Every movement had a purpose, and she adjusted naturally to what my body needed. That's something I genuinely appreciate because it's becoming harder and harder to find therapists with that level of instinct and confidence.
After the treatment, my back felt looser than it has in months, and I walked out feeling relaxed instead of exhausted, which is exactly how a great massage should leave you.
The spa itself is beautiful, peaceful, and the whole team made us feel incredibly welcome.
A huge thank you to Katie for looking after us so well, to Amanda for giving me one of the best massages I've had in years, and to Filipa for taking such great care of my friend.
Safe to say... we'll definitely be back. This one has earned a permanent place on our "treat yourself" list!
翻译:这些年来我做过很多次水疗,而且因为我以前也做过水疗师,所以我可能比大多数人更挑剔。我会注意到一些细节,比如手法、自信、力度、流畅度,以及那种无法真正传授的“魔力”。
我的水疗师是阿曼达,她做得非常出色。
来之前我的背痛得厉害,所以我要求的是力度适中的按摩,而不是轻柔的放松按摩。阿曼达显然明白我的意思!😂 那一刻我甚至有点怀疑自己的选择……但我同时也知道她找到了我需要重点关注的部位。那种感觉真是“又爱又恨”,任何享受过深度组织按摩的人都会懂。
最棒的是,她完全没有给人一种机械刻板的感觉。她的每一个动作都有其目的,并且能够根据我的身体状况自然调整力度。这一点我非常欣赏,因为现在越来越难找到像她这样既有直觉又有自信的水疗师了。
做完按摩后,我的背部感觉几个月以来都从未如此放松过,走出水疗中心时,我感到无比放松而不是疲惫,这正是一次完美按摩应有的效果。
水疗中心本身环境优美宁静,所有工作人员都让我们感到宾至如归。
非常感谢Katie对我们的悉心照顾,感谢Amanda为我提供了多年来最棒的按摩之一,也感谢Filipa对我朋友的悉心照料。
可以肯定地说……我们一定会再来的。这家水疗中心已经稳居我们“犒劳自己”清单的榜首!
