I love LeHua for their massages, absolutely amazing. My previous visit was a yr or two before COVID. I told the therapist that she didn't have to take it easy on me and she did not disappoint. I mean, one of my back muscles did take abt 3 weeks to recover, but I can't blame her for doing what I asked her to do. This time, however, I went in for a body scrub and I left disappointed.
The first (professional) massage I had was a body scrub massage at JeJu. Absolutely amazing. It was like getting scrubbed clean as someone dropped buckets of hot water on you to wash it off and then they do it all over again. As it was my first massage, I was a bit apprehensive abt having another man rub all over my manliness, but that feeling dissipated quickly. They're professionals, and if you're looking to get turned on during a massage, you should seek help or someone should report you to the authorities. Needless to say, LeHua was not that massage.
First of all, there's no description of the service. All it says is "Body Scrub". To be fair there are no descriptions for any of their services. But that didn't matter to me bc I knew what a massage was and I definitely knew what a body scrub was. I was ready!! Before going in, I had to choose the gender of my therapist. When I'm looking for a deep massage, I would choose a male over a female, but as I mentioned those women at LeHua can tear some ligaments - XX it is.
They take me to one of the back rooms - the same rooms where I've had massages in the past. A room I wouldn't expect them to dump buckets of water on me in. Once the session starts, the therapist is rubbing a scrub on me and then dousing her hands on water before wiping it off of me. Afterwards I would hop in their shower to remove the remainder of the sticky residue.
Her massage wasn't as intense as I would've liked so I told her that she could go harder. Her response was "we don't do that here". My first thought was that she misheard me and I was two seconds from getting banned. As it turns out, they don't consider their body scrubs "massages". It sure as hell felt like a massage, but they're the ones that rub on strangers for a living (while I gladly pay strangers to rub on me).
Overall, the massage was great. She did this thing with my toes that made me wanna buy her dinner. It just wasn't the body scrub I was expecting. Plz do what I didn't - ask what the services entail if you have any questions. Then have the therapist stay on the toes for a few seconds longer. If you want a great body...
Read moreLeHua is a great spa! I did the package special #3 which included a 30 minute foot massage, a 60 minute full body massage, a facial, a 60 minute body scrub and time in the sauna. I didn’t know what to expect about my visit and there isn’t much info on the website or the google reviews, so here are some things that might be helpful:
I was able to easily make a reservation via email. The spa was quick to respond and accommodate. there was a sign at the front desk asking that the tips be paid in cash. I paid with a credit card and was given the opportunity to provide a tip that way, also. you are allowed to pick the gender of the person/people providing your services. -this is a quiet spa. Although you have private rooms for the massages, scrubs, and facials, they only have curtains as doors, so you can hear people easily. I would recommend coming alone or in very small groups because lots of talking can be disruptive to others. they have separate locker rooms for men and women. They have showers, a sink, and lockers. They also have towels, plastic slippers, and robes. The spa will provide you with a key to the lockers. I only saw one sauna. It was in between the men and women’s locker rooms, so I am assuming that it is unisex, but I am not 100% on this there are liquid soaps provided in the showers, but they are not labeled. I would recommend bringing deodorant and any other toiletries you may use after showering. There is an outlet by the sink and mirror in the locker room. You could bring a hairdryer or flat iron, if needed. (Ps: I’m not sure if showers are offered after massages, or if it’s just after body scrubs.) I would recommend wearing shoes that can slide on and off easily. After my foot massage, I was taken back to my private room for my body massage and scrub. It saved a lot of time being able to slip into my shoes the massage rooms are kind of cold. I don’t know if this is due to the time of year (it’s winter right now) or if it’s always that way. There was a heating pad on the massage table, so that was helpful. throughout my massage and scrub, I was covered up with either a towel or a sheet and I had total privacy if you have long hair, you may want to bring your own hair tie/band to help keep it out of the way during your massage,...
Read moreThree of us, myself, my daughter and my granddaughter went there on 3/10/2024 for the full package that cost $275 each. The first thing my daughter noticed when she drank the water from their water dispenser is that it tasted like tap water. She knew right away because we use Crystals Springs for our office. So they reuse the bottle and fill it with tap water! We started out with foot massage and I had told my granddaughter that I would not just allow anyone to do foot massage. Reflexology is not to play with. Our feet regulate our entire internal system. The lady who was assigned to me did not seem to know reflexology because she kept rubbing my arch. There were no specific strokes or any technique observed. I wanted to request another person but did not wish to spoil the calm and quiet in the room. Next we proceeded with the massage. This woman cannot possibly have been schooled or schooled right because it was the worst massage I have received in all my years of getting massages all over the world. Again, she had no technique or should I say she had her own technique. She never used her fingers and only used her palm, arm and elbow. I felt like a piece of dough that was being kneaded. For the most part, she used her palm to rub me all over like I would rub lotion all over me. She used her arm and elbow to rub up and down my back again with no technique. Then we moved to sugar scrub. Same thing. She rubbed sugar all over me pressing into my skin again with just her palm. And again, with no technique. After that we went to shower off the sugar. The shower smelled very bad, was dirty and had black mold all over the bottom of the shower stall. The bag that they put all our clothes in caused our clothes to smell like the bag and it was not a good smell. When we went to pay, I asked to speak with the owner who was sitting at the reception desk. I waited until the other guests were gone and then proceeded to share with him my experience. He merely said, I should have requested a different person. My granddaughter told him about the dirt around the shower stall and he said nothing. This morning, my granddaughter has a knot in the back of her neck. I told her to go to urgent care to get it checked out. My next move is to request to see their...
