Default Professional Massage Advice?

Hi ladies!

I've only been to get a professional massage once in my life and it was fab-u-lous! (My girlfriend was a masseuse so I never went anywhere else but now I've moved away) The spa that I went to was one of the top ten in the nation and it had all the works! Heated table, robe and slippers, candles, soft music, and lavender smell (I'm guessing from the color of the candles). Not to mention the pampering before the massage and the free sauna afterwards with personal shower, dressing room with my choice of clean hair brushes, deodorant samples, perfume, body lotions, on and on, you get the idea. This was super nice! Because I've never been to another spa I don't know what to expect. What do they have? I'd love to know before spending $80 on a visit. Also, is there a way to choose a good one before actually paying for it? I've tried looking for reviews on the internet but I've came up empty handed.

I went to a small day spa one day. It wasn't nearly that nice! I would call ahead and ask what amenities they offer or if they have a website to check out first!

See if you can drop by the spa.. or maybe even join a local moms group and get referrals. Ask another massage therapist where THEY would go to be truly pampered.

I have been to a spa called La Cachet.
Surprised Couples Massage:

Le Cachet,…. Le Cachet.. you guys are great…..my girlfriend asked me to go with her to help her to negotiate a business deal…when we got to the place it was Le Cachet Day Spa, and the business deal was a wonderful relaxing couples massage in a private room with aroma candles.
The room was a bit small, but the atmosphere, the romantic music, the aroma oils, candles on the entire wall, and the massage was superb. I thought my girlfriend actually going to be kind of jealous since my massage therapist was a really pretty, tall , blond young lady. After the massage, we were escorted to a private candle room where we had a glass of fine wine with organic chocolates, and where we concluded our business deal.
The staff of Le Cachet was professional, pleasant and courteous; I am looking forward to have an other surprise couple’s massage at Le Cachet Day Spa any time.
Highly recommended

Ooooh, that sounds delightful! I could sure go for a massage now. We worked in the yard all weekend, I've had interview after interview today and I still have dinner ahead of me. Oh for a nice break!
