Nurture Day Spa

My husband and I booked two individual 90 minute therapeutic massages at Nurture Spa, and we both had fantastic experiences. The massage therapists were talented, knowledgeable and interested in making the 90 minutes personal to our unique bodies. The atmosphere wasn’t the most private (like the other review said you can hear other conversations happening and doors opening and closing). But that didn’t affect the great massages.

I found the Nurture Day Spa by searching for places in the area with a steam sauna. I called and made my appointment — no problems there. I was told they also had a dry sauna. There are three reasons I thought this place was just two stars. First, the dry sauna was a joke. I think I’ve seen pictures of the exact same sauna on an instructables tutorial. Seriously. I could have built this sauna in an afternoon. It probably would have looked better too. Also it’s worthy of mention that this dry sauna is tiny — like for midgets. I did give it a try. It did work, however, (here’s reason number two for two stars) it’s hard to relax when you can hear every conversation, every word that’s said, every phone ring, at the front desk area. I heard about someone’s daughter’s friend’s kid switching to some private school, someone talking about studying for a test they have coming up, some lady called about tanning and after hanging up there was a long chat about tanning blah blah blah…
Well, I came here for the steam sauna. It was just ok. Nothing fantastic. Just a run of the mill steam sauna. Did the job. Nothing good or bad to really report. Then I went to the shower room. It too was just… Meh. I’m used to spas having soap dispensers and dispensers for shampoo/​conditioner. Not this place. It’s just BYOSC. That’s fine, just different I guess. It would have been nice to have a water cooler positioned right near the saunas so I wouldn’t have had to walk out to the front area to get water but that’s nothing too terrible, just a suggestion. Saunas tend to dehydrate you, so it would’ve been nice if I was offered a water bottle or something. I brought my own though so I was ok.
The third reason for two stars was the sale pitch for future visits. I explained I was visiting from out of town, and this would be a one time kind of deal for me, but this gal wouldn’t quit. She tried selling me on gift certificates, an additional visit good for any time in that month, etc. I usually just know what I want and want to pay for it and then I’m out. So that kind of turned me off.
I wasn’t too thrilled with this place and won’t be going back even if I do return to Norman. The prices they charge to use their sauna are the same as what I pay to use a really nice sauna here in Vegas.

This rating is for the HENNA. It lasted a whole whopping 3 days! It was ridiculous! I got one just 2 days before vacation so I could have it while on vacation, by the time I actually got to my destination the henna was completely gone! I wouldn’t recommend it.
