The Elmwood is a great place for a massage. They have several rooms and therapists as well as a pool, hot tub and steam rooms. I love the showers in the change room!!
This past weekend myself and five girlfriends went to Elmwood Spa for the day. It was fantastic! We arrived early for our Swedish massages and were able to take advantage of the water therapies. In the women's change room there is a large hot tub, steam room and rain-showers. It was little busy, but not problem getting around or finding a locker. Next, we each at 50-minute Swedish massages with male RTM's. Everyone enjoyed their massages. I had Nkois and he was fantastic. He was friendly, professional and didn't talk the entire time (that's a plus!). Lastly, we went to the main water therapies area on the third floor. There was a large pool, hot tube, 2 steam rooms and lounge. This area seemed a little older, but still nice and met our expectations.
Overall, I'd highly recommend Elmwood Spa to my friends and will definitely be going back - hopefully soon!
For three hours today I was relaxed and pampered at the Elmwood Spa. It was my first visit to the Elmwood Spa since their renovation. When you walk in you are greeted by friendly staff and a nice warm towel. On each floor there are staff to greet you. When you want to get away and be stress free, the best thing to do is to go on vacation. If you don't have the time or money to go on a vacation the second best thing to do is to go the spa where someone else will look after your needs. I experienced the Serenity Spa retreat which included a manicure, pedicure, light lunch and water therapies. This is only my second pedicure. The first pedicure was years ago also at the Elmwood Spa, so I am not able to compare it to other experiences. I was hoping for a more relaxing massage. That was the whole point of getting the pedicure because my feet are so tired. I do not get manicures as I do not want to ruin my nails when I was dishes. This was my third manicure for the summer and each time my nails smudged before I left the premises. Overall, it was a very relaxing afternoon. I would recommend the Elmwood spa if you are looking for a spa experience in Toronto. However, the Ste. Anne's Spa would be my first choice if you want to get out of the city.
All hands and feet services include a home care kit. At checkout I was given a gift bag which included the Elm Line Herbal Tea and the Elm Line Hydrating Body Lotion.
I love the Elmwood Spa. I've been there a few times, always as a special treat because it is really expensive. You've got to save up to go there, but it's worth it. It is a very relaxing atmosphere and the people working there really know what they are doing. As well, if you do have any problems they will very quick at fixing the problem - so long as you tell them. They have a wonderful "water therapies" area that can be used as long as you like with the purchase of any spa service. I would highly recommend this spa as a special treat to yourself!
