Deal: $45 Swedish Massage at Alternative Health Associates (AHA) ($89 value)
Grade: B-
After my massage at AHA, I realized that the best part about this blog is having an excuse to try all the spa deals! …
…However, I’ve been putting this post off because there just isn’t much to say.
Yes, the massage felt amazing. Yes, the people at AHA were friendly, helpful, professional…and so on. Yes, I left relaxed.
The experience overall just wasn’t something to rave about.
AHA is located in what I think is an old town home with lots and lots of floors. I was taken to a room in the basement for my massage. The room itself was clean and comfortable, but throughout the massage I could hear people running up and down the stairs and water running when people would turn on a sink. I guess I may have gone into the treatment expecting it to be too much like a massage at an actual spa, but I still don’t think it should have been so loud. So — if you are looking for a full blown spa massage, I’d try another place, but if you’d like to squeeze in a massage after work and just want a chance to lay down and de-stress, then check out AHA

Overall, the experience was a great way to wind down after a busy week of work. If the same deal is featured on Groupon in the future, I’d consider going back but I would not pay full price.
