Essence Wellness

BUYER BEWARE!!! This business has been advertising on Groupon and Living Social with some very good deals for massages. I was about to buy a package of three massages but I thought I should call for appointments first since I only had 90 days to use all three massages. When I called the phone number all I got was a recorded message saying the mailbox was full so I couldn’t even leave a message. Luckily for me the address is just a few blocks from my house so I thought I would just stop by there on my way out. So I’m driving up and down Corey Ave. (which I know like the back of my hand) and I can’t find this business. Eventually, I park the car and get out and I stopped into a couple of businesses and ask if the know where this place is but no one has heard of them. Finally, I stop in at the St Pete Beach City Hall, which is also on Corey Ave., and ask them where is this address, 250 Corey Ave, that is supposed to be Essence Wellness. The lady at City Hall informs me that that address is the location of the local Post Office (and nothing else). I showed her the advertisement that Essence Wellness was using and she looked up the business in the cities data base and there it is, but as their PHYSICAL address they list the Post Office address. I stop in at the post office to see if they are doing massages in the back and (of course) they are not. So long story short, this business does NOT appear to exist. I’m so glad I tried to find it before I bought, unfortunately, my friend was not. She bought the three pack of massages and has left them emails and tried to call them (mailbox full) but has not got any response form Essence Wellness. Now she is going through Groupon for a refund. Look up the address 250 Corey Ave. 33 706 and you will see it is a post office.
