I've been going to Southwest Day Spa for over a year. Even though I've moved from Brookline to JP, I still make the commute (by public transportation!) Lavina and the rest of the ladies there are definitely worth it. Everyone is very welcoming, and the atmosphere is very cozy. My first visit was with a friend for her birthday-- the smaller size of the spa was ideal, we were totally pampered and the treatments felt much more personalized. I've received chair massages and a pedicure at Southwest Day Spa, however the main reason I go now is for waxing-- they are amazing-- especially Lavina!
Pros: relaxing ambience, friendly service
Cons: A bit small if you are a medium or larger group (I would say over 3 or 4) and want treatments simultaneously.
