LIC finally has an excellent spa!!! I recently tried the 45 min hydra-facial treatment at the newly opened Mana skin, and it was fantastic!
The spa has an easy to find street-facing entrance and a modern spacious reception area. The certified equipment used during my 45 min hydra facial session assured me I was in for a high-quality experience. Staff was very friendly, highly skilled and knowledgeable. I've heard that the HydraFacial is the go-to treatment for celebrities before shoots or events. It is one of the most powerful non-invasive skin resurfacing treatments available today.

I called to make an appointment for a deep tissue massage, the receptionist could have easily told me that they had no female massage therapist available. Red flag number 1. She let me know once I was in the room at the spa. She also called me at the exact time my appointment was at to see if I was actually going to come. I was already on the same block about to arrive.

His technique was sloppy and unprofessional. I would understand if this was a hole in the wall spa in Chinatown but it’s not. the price certainly was certainly on the LIC range of pricing.
They also charged me $30 for OIL!
I do not recommend this...

Cons: Way too expensive for the quality of service. The facial was OK but certainly not good compared to Skin Philosophy or some comparable places nearby. I had to wait 20 minutes for my appointment, they were running late Aggressive upselling even when I showed no interest, telling me to come way more than it makes sense to ("You slouch a lot, be sure to get a massage 2 times a week to fix it.) (" Buy our membership package, it's only $600 for the...
