The Pfister's Well-SPA

August 19, 2016


The Pfister's Well-SPA-- located in downtown Milwaukee --it lives up to its reputation as one of the area's top Spas!  Beautiful showers (you might as well be visiting the Kohler Museum) amazing refreshments and mimosas --combine that with a talented staff --makes this one of the best places in town! Highly recommended and affordable options: A 'Good-To-Go' (Swedish) massage (ask for firm pressure if needed or better yet upgrade to  deep tissue!) The hammam steam shower is wonderful and the Kohler Showers are relaxing. During the steaming-- be sure to leave the door open as it intense! I have a claustrophobic issue so I think I would try their salt bath soak in lieu of the steam shower next time! Don't miss out on this Milwaukee spa! I give it 5 Stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Urban Milwaukee ran this as an Op-ed on October 17th, 2020. Link here.   By Maria Teresa Noth Milwaukee, the black community, the police, addiction, first responders, and medics all collided on my first day back at work at a hospital this summer.  I have been reflecting a lot on that rainy Tuesday evening. Our department for Integrative Medicine was initially closed for a few months anticipating the pandemic.  George Floyd was brutally murdered by police just a couple of weeks earlier and civil unrest had begun before similar situations in Kenosha and Wauwatosa boiled over. The unrest in the community was palpable. I have lived in Milwaukee most of my life but now the overwhelming wave of fear of having one of my high-risk family members contract COVID-19 was superseded by a wave of white guilt after yet another video of police brutally.  That June this disease was little understood and scary but after several months without pay, I saw little option other than gettin...

Gloss

Gloss on Water is another new gem in the Milwaukee Spa/ Nail Salon scene. Nestled right into the Brewer's Hill neighborhood across the way from where I have called home for the last 6 years. This area is certainly conveniently located.  Highly recommended services: manicure and pedicure and waxing services. With this place in the area, they are always accommodating to fit me in for a Gel, Mani, Pedi, or a waxing. I did try some waxing here-- ouch-- but that has more to do with my pain tolerance than the practitioner's skills! Although the esthetician was talented and professional I think I will try laser hair removal so as not to ever have to deal with that again! Try to get in on a slow day or you will have trouble getting through! Four Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐
