Just what those aching shoulders need 
I go here for shoulder and back massages (bear in mind I have the upper body of a creaky pensioner), and the service has definitely improved over time. Downstairs is a juice bar and upstairs are cubicles where treatments range from massage, through waxing to manicures and pedicures. This upper area used to be satured with new age music and massuers peddling their new age theories... but thankfully on my last visit this had been replaced with Motown and burly Europeans who only want to sort your body out and leave you to tend to your soul.
A range of massage types is available, from relaxing to sports deep tissue massage. My treatments tend towards the harsher end of this spectrum, but the deep tissue massages are definitely worth the temporary discomfort involved if you have long-standing muscular problems. My skin is usually left slightly bruised, but my muscles feel so much lighter and looser.
A massage costs £35 for half an hour - I don't know if this is typical as I have not been to any other central London spas.
Above all, this is Lily Allen's favourite health hang-out - and if that doesn't make you want to go...
