I visited We Thrive for the first time today and had a Deep Pore Cleansing facial from Mia. First of all, the atmosphere is wonderful – very relaxing and welcoming, even for a nervous first timer like me! Mia was excellent – the treatment was beyond fantastic, and I felt truly pampered. Definitely would recommend to anyone and look forward to visiting again.
