Statice Salon & Spa

Business has been slow for Statice lately, so they have been distributing their fliers all over parked cars. I usually hate fliers on my car because it always makes me think it’s a parking ticket. It also seems like an act of desperation. However, as a gal who likes to try new places, I signed up for an hour of the Pure Massage.
It was okay.
The entire process seemed kind of artificial. When I walked in, the entrance reeked of acetone (from the nail salon area). The massage room was fragrance-​free though. After I got onto the massage table, the masseuse abruptly started the music, which required a few more minutes for me to relax. In the middle of the massage, the C.D. had to re-​start from the beginning and the C.D. player’s clicking sounds were distracting. The masseuse was professional, but did not really work with my requests. I asked her to spend more time on my neck and shoulders, but she just gave me a straight-​forward massage.
Do not believe the reviews on Citysearch; I think they are mostly written by the owner or staff themselves. Comments like «the owner is one of the nicest, friendliest, and gracious people I have ever known» and «everyone is so nice and the location is superfabulous, easy to get to, always parking available» are just not realistic. C’mon, is parking ever easy in downtown? Unless you’re talking about downtown Broomfield or something…
