Really amazing Ayurvedic Indian massage and treatment center. I will definitely be back. Their steam box is super amazing. I’m always recommending them. They are also great for kids with special needs.

Great meaningful and useful treatment from Ciara. Enjoyed full body and scalp massage with a little reflexology added. She is an intuitive massage therapist with a background in physical therapy. After session I was relaxed, had had a little nap and felt calm and more focused. Both sessions were about 45 minutes so it was a a great retreat time for self-care.

Today I met with the owner and he was very very pleasant & understanding. I explained the issue, he’s going to comp 2 treatments, I felt his passion for his business, and was very happy to have finally met w/the owner. Today’s treatment was the same as before Head oil Massage But this time I opted for steam bath(it wasn’t working) Facial treatment instead I enjoyed it– as always the therapists are who make the company, there very thoughtful/knowledgeable, and make you want to come back. After the treatment, as promised by the owner my next session is comped(light massage) and it’ll be July 5th. Funny how you explain to someone ie the owner looking into his eyes you can tell this issue I had for my original appointment may 16 issue wasn’t the first time. The problem w/this company is they have bad communication skills. 4 stars was the owner talking to me & session w/the therapist. Couldn’t give 5 stars since the issue w/my money & missed appointment

I am glad one of the reviewers made sure to mention the authenticity of the services provided. And unlike one of the reviewers, I understand that the Ayurvedic custom may provide for a less than«normal» massage experience, complete with robes and dark rooms. It just doesn’t work like Massage Envy and that is exactly the point! I have the Shirodhara treatment and ABHYANGAM massage. I loved the massage… it really balanced me and got my circulation and lymph functions moving. It was fantastic and I highly recommend it. And I highly recommend this place if you want to sample Ayurvedic services and practices.

I would agree with the other reviewer Katie W. that the atmosphere wasn’t spa like as you find many places in the U.S. but, it was very authentic, and certainly adequate. I had the Panchakarma massage followed by a facial and the steam bath. I was also given the disposable underwear, but the masseuse left the room while I undressed. Amala focuses more on healing of the body than the traditional achy muscle massages that we’re used to in the U.S. I loved it… and I will definitely return. Thanks Takiah.

Very shady looking place, but very authentic. Dr. Jeevan was wonderful and very friendly. He is very knowledgable in his field. I had the abhanygam massage with the shirodhara. I really enjoyed the shirodhara(oil poured on forehead) treatment, but the massage was terrible. I feel that this place has lots of potential to be a great treatment center, but the atmosphere and appearance of the inside turns people away from trying the treatments here. For example, my treatment room was very bright, while the blinds were closed, there was too much light coming into the room to be comfortable being naked in front of someone else. They gave a disposable underwear and disposable bra. No robes, no towel… just told you to lay down on the table. This is a very authentic center, but in the united states we need to be more aware that not everyone is comfortable without any clothes with the therapist present. Overall, I understand the concept of this place, but I don’t think its quite there yet. For how much they charge for the treatments, a little more«spa atmosphere» is warranted.
