Had an amazing experience here today! I had a couples massage then the ananda scalp service. All of the staff was professional, caring, and hardworking. The space was calming, clean, and well-maintained. I would highly recommend all of their services! We will return!

I feel so lucky to have Rasa spa so close... I've been seeing Tamara as regularly as I can to help with the long-standing knots in my shoulders, and she works some serious magic! In addition to being a skilled massage therapist who takes the time to listen to you and who has some serious deep-tissue abilities (thank god!), she's also just a great human. I love coming an hour (or a few!) early and alternating between the sauna and reading in the relaxation room. It's definitely my happy place!

Today I went for a massage. I get massages twice a month, and Iโ€™ve tried many different places. But this was by far the worst massage Iโ€™ve ever had. If I were 90 or 100 years old, maybe I wouldโ€™ve liked it โ€” but her hands had absolutely no strength. It felt like she was just applying oil for the entire hour. Even though I asked her to use more pressure, nothing changed. Maybe she just didnโ€™t have the strength, or maybe this is the kind of gentle massage that elderly people prefer. To give you an idea: the pressure was about the same as when I apply baby oil to my child and gently pat her back to help her sleep. That said, the facility itself was the best Iโ€™ve been to โ€” very clean and well-equipped. I filled out a form beforehand indicating areas of discomfort, but it seemed like none of that was taken into account. Overall, only the sauna and the amenities were good.

I called last min on my birthday and was able to come in for a 30 min massage, canโ€™t remember his name, but I think it was Joshua. He did a really good job very gentle.
