Natalie gave me one of the best deep tissue massages I’ve ever had. Thank you so much.
I’ve been getting massages here for about a year and a half now, and each one has been amazing! The space is very clean, calm, and welcoming. Definitely recommend!
Natalie is an amazing massage therapist. I feel significantly better after the massages and my range of motion improved immediately. I highly recommend Natalie!
Natalie is fantastic! She listens to what I need and has great pressure for deep tissue in those stubborn spots. She keeps the conversation light and takes her cues from me when I’m needing the quiet.
I had a 90 minute prenatal massage with Natalie and it was amazing! She was so sweet and tailored it specifically to my requests. The table set up is awesome too as you actually get to lie on your stomach! Natalie has such a smooth flow to her technique and I will definitely go back.
My partner and I booked a couples massage and I could not be more appreciative! They treated us with such kindness and professionalism, and seemed to be very knowledgeable. We discussed preferences of pressure and location in depth before beginning and they were both able to offer great suggestions for us! They also checked in with us making sure we were comfortable at various times throughout the session, which I really appreciated! We walked out feeling so refreshed and relax, I had even dozed off during the massage! As an added bonus we got a sweet dark chocolate treat at the end of the session, which I loved! This team truly put a lot of care and effort into making their space as serene and peaceful as it is. Thank you for crafting such a wonderful team, and creating such a positive experience for your clients! Highly recommend & will be booking again!!
First time visiting Aspen Wellness Centre and had a massage with Natalie. One of the best massages I've had in a long time. Very friendly staff and easy to book online. I already booked my second massage and have been telling everyone about this place. Highly recommend.
Had a 90 minute massage with Natalie Mills and it was fantastic. She is very good at what she does, has a ton of experience (17 years +) and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole experience. Aspen Wellness is a very clean, warm and welcoming clinic. I strongly recommend both Aspen Wellness and Natalie!
I had a 60-minute massage and I have nothing but good things to say! Beautiful facility, great staff and an excellent overall experience. I will be back for sure!
