Yes, I had one of those. It was very nice!
I got the facial first. There were seven treatments over the course of the hour: clean, tone, exfoliate, hand and arm massage, tone, mask, moisturize. It was very relaxing.
Second was the neuromuscular massage. This is my new favorite massage. She focused on my neck, shoulders, back and feet. My feet weren't as bad as the neck, shoulders and back. She said my spine looked fairly straight, but the muscles above my breasts were really tight.
Third was the body wrap. I went with the detox. My masseuse did the wrap too. Salt scrub, seaweed based mask, nice warm electric blanket. It was set for max, I had her turn it down to 6. I'm glad I did.
Finally, the powerjet treatment. This is a capsule, not unlike the cryogenic capsules from "Alien", except your head is exposed. It was described to me as "like a Jacuzzi". The only relation this thing has to a Jacuzzi is that it has jets and uses hot water. The bloody thing vibrates enough to shake your teeth out, the water starts out COLD before it warms up and the jets come in various wave patterns and you get the rotating light effect. They didn't have anything for the aromatherapy button, which I was sad about. It got all the mask off and it was warm, but that's about it. I won't be doing it again.
I'm thinking of making Spa Day my yearly birthday present to myself. I've enjoyed just about every service they provide aside from makeup and a few highly specialized treatments. Maybe next year...
