I respect independent women in business for themselves and Martina is very nice and courteous. Which is why i’m sad to put through a bad review - but I don’t want someone else to spend their money on a service and feel like they wasted money that could have bought them a better experience. Unfortunately the venue she is working out of is a tanning salon and the massage room isn’t a room at all per se, but is a partitioned off space - so you can hear everything. Loud recorded announcements thanking customers or giving instructions on the tanning booths; pumping pop music clashing with more classical music - so two different areas were playing different styles of music and you hear everything. Not a good result if you’re hoping for a relaxing massage. Equally, as it isn’t a room with a bottom or top to the wall, every time someone comes into the tanning salon the cold air blows in - and even if you’re partially covered in a blanket, these blankets were thin and Martina didn’t use the technique of covering the body up when she finished with a particukar area. So rather than covering a back that has just had moist wet stones on it before doing the arms you’re just left exposed and uncovered to the cold air. It also wasn’t a good start that the temperature of the stones weren’t checked prior to putting them on my skin - so we started with her burning the back of my leg and I had to tell her to stop and wait until they cooled a bit as they were far too hot. So I kept flinching every time it was time to use the stones but at least for the rest of the massage they were nice and comfortably warm. Martina for the most part is a good masseuse in terms of the massage itself but wasn’t good at timing so the full body massage was uneven and then she ran out of time so rushed through the upper body which was the reason I was there and barely touched my arms. It wasn’t relaxing at all and I just wanted it to end. Probably best to get something simple here - neck and shoulder massage perhaps or something simple. But if you’re looking for a relaxing experience, aromatherapy or hot stone or anything along those lines, you’ll be happier to go someplace else.
Good and rigorous sports massage that did the trick. Will return, good staff
Martina was great, the treatments were perfect. She was professional, quick and friendly.
Great treatment
Great experience and she makes you feel very comfortable
