I recently purchased 3 sessions through Coup Tessa for Slim Body Wellness Center. I paid $179 for the 3 sessions.The dilapidated strip mall should've raised flags but I was excited to lose the fat in my midsection. When I went for my consultation I was told that it would take 6 or 3 more than I had purchased, and so I paid an additional $480. I was given forms to sign & when I asked for a copy of the release, I was told by Julie (one of the owners) that she couldn't give me a copy for legal reasons. Yet another flag. I did everything exactly as I was told, everything, and didn't lose a thing except my time and my money. Didn't even bother going to my last appointment. I told Julie how I felt and she offered two free sessions. She also wanted me to go to my last session (today 11/9/12) so they could measure me. Please! I have the before pictures, and nothing has changed. And it gets even better. One week into the treatments, in other words, my first week, to add insult to injury, I received an email from Slim Body Wellness offering 6 more sessions for only $349. Keep in mind I had just a total of $659!!! And this offer was good not only for existing customers but for new ones as well. So a little while ago, I received an email from Living Social and Slim Body Wellness is now offering 3 sessions for $99! You know the saying: if it sounds to good to be true, well fill in the blanks... Spend your hard earned money on a personal trainer instead. There is no substitute for hard work and sweat. I am also going to report them to a consumer agency so they can go and investigate them. They haven't heard the last from me yet.
