Massage Envy - McKinney, TX - Spa Review

Rating: 4 out of 5 STARS!!!

Massage Envy - Craig Ranch
8950 State Highway 121 Suite #340
McKinney, TX 75070
972-370-ENVY (3689)
http://www.massageenvy.com/

This Massage Envy is a fairly new establishment and offers low introductory rates on your first massage with them. I found the masseuse to be knowledgeable in her trade and focused on the areas that I requested on my questionnaire. I was thankful that she read it and tailored my massage based on this specific information that she received prior to my coming into the spa room this day.

I found the low lighting in the room to be relaxing, the fragrance was soothing, and the music selection calming. The therapist was silent so that I could de-stress and enjoy the tension being removed from my body. The lotion was warmed before putting it on me and plenty was used so that it would go more smoothly. She was able to manipulate my sore areas and work out all the knots.

I left Massage Envy feeling refreshed, relaxed, and no longer sore in my back and shoulders. Massage therapy is a great tool for pain relief and relaxation. I recommend the 1 hour Swedish massage technique.

** FYI:  Drink plenty of water before and after to help complete the detox process! **

Jump'N Land - McKinney, TX - Family Entertainment Review

Rating: 3 out of 5 STARS!!!

Jump'N Land
2040 Redbud Blvd. #100
McKinney, TX 75069
972-540-0800
http://www.jumpnland.com/

The best thing about this place is its free play hours. Jump'N Land is open 7 days a week and no prior reservation is needed. Most indoor bounce houses cater to only birthday parties on the weekends. Here you will find 5 inflatables to enjoy. These provide you with the opportunity to climb, jump, bounce, slide, and shoot baskets.

Also in the play area, you will find a plastic tunnel with soft pads, a plastic jungle-gym slide set, and a few plastic rocking toys. A mini-arcade, snack bar, and stuff-an-animal are located in the lobby.

The primary audience is for ages 7 and under. On your next rainy day or when you are looking for a spur-of-the-moment kind of place to take the kiddos, stop by and explore!

FYI: Don't forget your socks!

Weekdays $8.00 per child (all day pass)
Weekends $10.00 per child (all day pass)

Mon-Th 10 am-3 pm; Friday 10 am-5 pm; Sat 10 am-6 pm; Sun 12:30 pm-6 pm

Young Chefs Academy - McKinney, TX - Family Entertainment Review

Rating: 5 out of 5 STARS!!!

Young Chefs Academy
2107 W. Eldorado Pkwy. #109
McKinney, TX 75070
www.youngchefsacademy.com/mckinney

Young Chefs Academy is an outstanding choice for a birthday party, cooking classes, mini-camps, girl scout troop event, school fundraisers, end of season soccer parties, or end of year gatherings. There is a menu full of variety for all different ages, skill levels, and food palette preferences. The academy staff give you instruction, help you to practice kitchen hygiene and cooking safety, and help you to prepare delicious food for the group.

At the end of the party, the staff will assist the birthday child opening the presents, write down the list of guests to thank for which items, serve the birthday treat, and deliver the goodie bags to each child in attendance. I highly recommend Young Chefs Academy for your next gathering of girls, and/or boys, that enjoy food creations that are their own. Bon Appetit.
