Full Circle Massage

Disclaimer: I purchased a Living Social deal for a 90-​minute hot stone massage at Full Circle.
Second disclaimer: Don’t believe everything you read. Even on Unilocal.
I have to disagree with my fellow reviewers on Full Circle Massage — so much so that I would return.
The quick rundown of the place is friendly service, decent location, soothing décor, certified and professional therapists… ok and a bathroom that could use a quick dust and mop. That is my only complaint and the only reason I’m downgrading to three stars.
The owner, Stacy, was extremely helpful and accommodating in scheduling my appointment. I was still skeptical after reading the reviews, but I wanted to use my voucher, and I desperately needed a good massage before running my half marathon.
I arrived about 15 minutes early to fill out the obligatory paperwork and make sure I could find parking; there is a dirt lot across the street that clients can use to avoid hunting for a spot on Atwells. Sure, there is a bar downstairs, but I didn’t hear so much as a peep from it – granted my appointment was at noon.
There were two well-​appointed treatment rooms from what I could see, the above-​mentioned bathroom, a cozy waiting area, a kitchen and a third room that I’m assuming was for that mysterious practice of candling. (Eh? I don’t even know what that means. No one knows what it means, but it’s provocative…)
Kristen greeted me, offered me water and made sure I was comfortable and settled. She kept checking in with me during the appointment to make sure the pressure was ok. I probably should have told her to let up a bit, but I knew I needed a good kneading, and that is exactly what I got. The hot stones were amazing! After she massaged an area, she massaged it gently with the stones and then rested them in various places. I highly recommend adding this option. This was also my first massage over 60 minutes, and it is so worth it to tack on that extra time and attention. I have to say I was very impressed that, despite starting after my appointment time, I received a full 90-​minute treatment. That is pretty rare.
Once I emerged, I was handed a bottle of water and asked how I felt. She told me where I was carrying the most tension and advised some stretches to alleviate the discomfort. I left with happily sore and relaxed muscles.
The prices are a bit high, but I would still recommend Full Circle Massage.
