We went for a couples massage yesterday and overall it was pretty nice. However, I was not too happy to hear that when my husband went to pay they were saying there was no credit left on my gift card, and this is very incorrect. I explained that the writing on the back of the gift card wasn’t even mine, it was the receptionist at the Salon in Tucson. So I am now waiting to hear back from the manager today, so we’ll see and I’m interested in how they will handle customer care.read more

I had a great deep tissue massage by Amber at the Chandler location. Thank-you Amber. My Husband and I have enjoyed couples massages at the Oracle Location in Tucson for 4 yrs. Great rates and they take care of the customer!!. I have been a Nurse Practitioner for 40 yrs, know this end of the healthcare spectrum and promote massage therapy for chronic pain over medications to decrease pain and improve mobility.read more

The introductory price of $49 makes it worth trying out. My experience with Becky was excellent. She seems capable of any type of massage. I went with a medium relaxation massage. The room was clean and she asked about the temperature which was just right for me. Gentle music plays in the background. I’m thinking about joining the loyalty program to make a monthly massage a little more affordable.read more

First have always been greeted by friendly and courteous desk staff.I have had many massages with Chrissy and find she is amazing at working highly tense areas of the body. She also helped me increase the range of motion in my shoulder after an injury from a fall. I was amazed that the first massage after the fall, the radiating pain I had experienced in my arm and hand subsided. After the next week's massage the radiating and tingling in my arm and hand has never returned. I truly believe she saved me from having shoulder surgery as the pain was intolerable and surgery was recommended. I think ice and anti-inflammatories also helped but she does give a fanastic massage.read more

They were able to accommodate a last minute couple's massage request. Loved that hot towels were incorporated at different points during the massage. Also, their bed was warm and cozy -nice touch! The masseuse asked at various times if the pressure was OK. All in all a great experience - will be back!read more

I am a regular here. The staff are super friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere relaxing and inviting. When you get as beaten up as I do -- adventuring around the world -- it is important to have the machinery (human) attended to by experts. Special mention to the fabulous Delia and Tawni. Five stars plus.read more

Great massages. Friendly staff. Slightly more expensive than other spots around town, but the quality is better. $10 cheaper per hour and it's five stars for me. Couples massages are great as well... I wish 4.5 stars was an option.read more

I walked in after my Dr. Suggested I get help right away. They we're able to get me right in with Brianna. Brianna was amazing, knowledgeable, and hit all the right areas with the right amount of pressure. I also, loved the fact that she didn't feel the need to chat the whole time. When you are trying to focus on feeling better, chit chat can be disruptive. Thanks Rubs.read more

I am a regular at the Rubs on Wrightstown and want to thank their talented and professional staff for always making my visits excellent. My therapist Stephanie is amazing, she is very professional, personable, and talented in targeting problem areas and muscles that require extra attention. Since I have been going to Stephanie my chronic pain in my lower back and shoulders has faded away. Thanks again for everything you and your team at Rubs at Wrightstown does.read more

Have you ever had your armpits massaged?? (Yes it hurt but wow, it helped so much.) If you love a moderate to deep tissue massage, Cassandra is your person. This massage makes my top 3 best massages of all time. It was completely different than any other deep massage I have had but I felt incredible after. We talked (she loves when her clients communicate with her), she stretched me, worked on my many knots and it was still somewhat relaxing. I highly recommend Cassandra and believe you will not be disappointed.read more

Unfortunately bought a groupon for a massage. Signed up for a deep tissue massage and the first thing my therapist tells me after I’ve laid on the table that deep tissue hurts her. Understandable and I obliged to go through with it hoping to relax, but it literally felt like the most average massage ever. Went there because it’s in the same family as rubs, but I was highly disappointed. Edit: The manager Shaughnessy reached out to me after seeing my previous two star review and offered to make it right. I was set up with Ciara and wow!! This was a fantastic massage. The front of house staff was very nice and professional. My opinion of this place surely did change and I will be scheduling with them in the future.read more

Hands down the most amazing spa day I have ever had - not exaggerating at all. Ashley was amazing, went in and although I had book at the other location the ladies there manage to fit me into their schedule - Ashely was seriously awesome - I mean the massage was everything that I hoped and more , super relaxing , super calming , and although I’m pregnant she managed to hit all the spots that were bothering me without being too delicate or too rough - just the right amount of pressure and right amount of everything. She also did a happy feet service and my swollen/gross legs and feet are like spaghetti right now because of how relaxing and amazing of a job she did. Honestly I would recommend this place SPECIALLY Ashley if you are looking to relax To the max. Thank you to all the ladies there and the service - Ashley please never stop doing this - you are seriously talented and very easy going . I loved my spa experience thanks to you !!!!read more

I did not actually spend time at the salon. I just called to inquire about sugar waxing. It is NOT offered here, but she did answer the phone in a polite & concise manner. You can't go wrong with that😁read more

I wanted to buy my sister a gift card from the spa for her birthday. She lives in Tucson, but I do not, so I would need to purchase it on their website. Their website is completely unsecured. I would never put my credit card details into the website, because anyone can steal my credit card information when I submit it. The copyright on the website has not been updated since 2014. From the other reviews, it sounds like this salon offers good services, but sadly because of their unwillingness to update their website and utilize current, secure technology, my sister will not find out. I will take my e-commerce business elsewhere.read more

Went here on Sunday for my first facial and I had the best experience ever! The spa itself was so cute darling and the receptionist at the front was kind and welcoming. Heather did my facial and she was absolutely awesome! We talked the entire time and by the end of it, I felt like I had made a new friend! My face felt so smooth and clean afterwards and I enjoyed every minute of it. I will definitely be returning soon and I highly recommend Heather at Spa Solai if you want an amazing facial from a very friendly lady! 🙂read more

My friend and I had tried to schedule an appointment for the Spa Package (which is supposed to include a massage, facial, and pedicure) on my day off from work, but I was told that they weren't able to get both of us in because they only have ONE NAIL TECHNICIAN. That really turned me off from this place, but I wanted to give them a chance to prove me wrong, so I settled for just the massages and facials. THE DAY OF we were already about to leave to the spa when I received a phone call saying that one of the facials had been canceled due to SHORT STAFF, AGAIN. We still ended up going in hopes for a compromise. My friend was interested in lip fillers and since Spa Solai is advertised as a "Med Spa" we assumed they would be able to provide those services. Once we got inside, we noticed that the nail room was completely empty, aside from the ONE nail technician. We asked the receptionist at the front desk about the lip fillers and she explained to us that despite still being ADVERTISED as a Med Spa, they stopped providing medical services as of 2016! The receptionist was very nice and probably the only good thing about the whole experience, but at this point me and my friend had both decided that we didn't want to spend our money at such an UNDERSTAFFED, UNORGANIZED, and FALSELY-ADVERTISING business.read more

I went into this spa with high expectations after reading the reviews but left completely shocked and disappointed. As shown in the pictures, I had a horrible reaction to the wax they were using on my underarms. Mind you not, this picture was taken 3 days after the waxing. As if that wasn't bad enough, when I was done with my waxing service I decided to see if they had any availability for a pedicure (because you'd think that any good spa would have the openings to make their money) but I was told they didn't have time when I could clearly see inside the nail room and no one was in there and the lights were shut off. I was very unimpressed with the way this business is run. Extremely outdated and cheap.read more

Highly recommend this place! I got a facial for the first time and it was amazing I was a bit nervous since I have very sensitive skin but the front desk & the girl who did my facial were super friendly and super helpful on answering my questions/concerns! I also got a manicure right after and it was super nice as well, my nails were pretty damage due to acrylic I had on before but my nails are much healthier now thanks to some tips she gave me! Definitely give this spa a thumbs up! 😀read more
