Anyone been to La Vita Bella in E. Norriton???

I want to get a massage while DH is OOT on Saturday.  Is La Vita Bella any good?

I got my mani/pedi there the day before my wedding.  I liked it there!  I think Mrs.TCT has inside scoop.

If you don't mind a bit of a drive, I recommend Mellow Massage in East Falls.  Very affordable and great massages.

Thanks.  I'll check out Mellow Massage too!

I haven't gotten a massage there, I get my hair did there. (couldn't help the "did")

But, I do know people who have gotten massages there, and I haven't heard one bad thing. Not sure on their prices, but the salon and spa are really nice. I'm hoping I get a spa present for x-mas this year.

Rapunzels in Lansdale is amazing. Good pricing there too. I'll have to look up the gal's name that I got the massage from, but it was very relaxing.

MH - if you go with Mellow, I would recommend not using Damon.  Everyone else there is awesome!  I've gone a few times over the past years and  DH and I got our pre-wedding massages there.

I've been there two different times for a massage and I think they do a real good job.  Their spa part of the salon is very quiet and peaceful.  Also I think on their website you can get 10% off your first massage.... at least they had it on there before.

MH--have you looked into schools?  Dawn Career Institute is in Wilmington (which, are you a Delaware chick like me anyway?) and their prices are a lot less expensive than anywhere else I've seen.  You can get a massage by a student or by someone who just graduated and is working in their spa.  The students are less, but I don't think they have hours on Saturdays.  I've had massages and facials there.

I was in DE, but moved in September up to Plymouth Meeting.  Since I already made a trip to Total Wine a couple weeks ago, I have no incentive to make the trip back down there since it would be only for a massage :)  thanks though!

I got a full body massage there a few months ago. The lady I had was super strong, haha. There were a few times I thought I was going to have to ask her to stop because instead of feeling good, it hurt. But that could be because I was really tight in that area of my back and she was trying to get the knot out. My friend had a hot stone massage and really liked it.

I think I may plan on hitting the gym (LA Fitness right there), showering up, then heading over to La Vita Bella for a massage, then going home to have some wine.  Sounds like a good day doesn't it?
