My husband and I scheduled massages for our 6yr anniversary with this company while visiting from Chicago. We both received our massages from a talented young man by the name of De’Andre. He made sure to ask us about our problem areas and took his time working those areas out to help with the pain. We were so relaxed and refreshed after the appointment. Having back problems for so many years and being so tense around my neck and back , his massage really helped loosen a lot of the stiffness I had. If your in the area definitely book an appointment with him !
The student was excellent. The GPS sent me down the street. The place is actually next to two bucks bar. It is a bit hard to communicate by phone. I think students operate the phone. Once l called for an appointment with a student l liked. They told me she was out indefinitely. When l talked to her later, she had been out 2 days.
My whole family and I have always enjoyed massages at the C.I. M.M. The students are always very professional, courteous and just plain fun loving. I have gone for years and intend on continuing for years to come. The instructors are exceptional people also, very professional and make you feel very comfortable. I would recommend this institute to anyone and everyone. Excellent place to relax and feel at home.
Student massages seem to be a well kept secret .... that shouldn't be! Need a great massage that doesn't break the bank? Go get a student massage! This is the first time I have been here and it did not disappoint. Marilyn gave me an excellent massage and next time I am here in this area, I will be back!
I don't know what was so terrible with the person's visit below, since they didn't bother to elaborate anything at all but I'll actually give an explanation of what I've experienced. I've been here twice and both times were good. Keep in mind you are going to a SCHOOL. These are STUDENTS who are massaging you. Most of them are near completion of the program and are on the verge of graduating. The rooms aren't as pretty as a spa but again - it's a school. They did have relaxing music playing with soft lighting. You lay on a massage table with sheets over it. They give you time to undress and make sure you have ample dressing sheets to cover up with. Both times I've been there, they were polite, respectful and professional. They use body oil and they will work out any area you are having problems with. In the waiting area, they have a water cooler with cups if you are thirsty before or after your massage. You will wait on a leather couch and fill out a piece of paper and give it to the receptionist when you are done. Then, your massotherapist will come and get you and introduce themselves. You can choose if you prefer to have a male or a female massaging you. Hey - it might not be the best, but for $35 for a half hour massage is worth it over spending hundreds of dollars for the same service at a fancy spa. I'm booking another appointment today.
Cannot get my transcripts this school is ridiculous! I paid 30 grand here. Moved to Hawaii needed my transcripts. The new staff there say they will do it but never do and now don’t even respond to my emails or calls. Thanks to them not wanting to send me my transcripts, I now have to apprentice here in Hawaii for another 400 hours and 2 more grand. This school is a joke they don’t care about the students past or present. It’s not hard to pull up transcripts and send them to email. I suggest going to a different school. They never follow up, and if you cannot get to the school to get your records or transcripts, then you may as well kiss your education goodbye. It’s worthless to pay 30 grand for school if you have to pay for and do more schooling because they are too lazy to get on the computer and send your transcripts. I’d give zero stars if I could!
I was late to the appointment because the GPS sent me another location. I tried calling the facility and no one picked up. After 10 to 15 minutes, I kept driving to see if I could find it. When I did and explain the situation to the scheduler/ teacher they were not accommodating at all! I told her that I would still do the massage and pay for the whole hour even though I would get less time but she said that she had given my masseuse to someone else because that person's masseuse did not make it in. So she was there sitting with two masseuse next to her, at the reception desk, did not answer the phone, and did not give me any masseuse that were there. All she said was there's nothing that she can do. I drove over 40 minutes to make it to his place with a pain on my neck and got no massage. They should really change their location address if the GPS is not going to take them there!
I've been coming here for several years and refer everyone I know. Although the therapists are still students, I notice no differences between them and professionals. I will continue to get my massages here!
Always a wonderful experience, all the students have been amazing. Wish them well in their future of massage.
