Please note that I noticed the tech pressed various key points, and this was a "reflexing" massage. A towel was placed on me I guess for modesty? Even though other clients had come into the room, and the techs were moving around, I barely heard them at all, It remained above all, a very quiet and soothing atmosphere. I was dressed in comfortable closes and yoga capris the whole time, and remained dressed. She had me then roll over and massaged my shoulders, back, even covering some sciatic nerves on my butt. She did a great foot massage, but I wish she had spent more time on my heels. Now I am very sensitive on my calves, so I had to tell her to make it very soft there. The technician began with a face massage, (Different from a standard facial) moving to my neck, shoulders and arms. My feet were placed in a warm soaking basket while I was asked to lie back. I had requested the 1 hour foot & body for only $24.99. The tables were nicely padded and the head adjustable, so I was very comfortable. I really didn't even want to lie down, they were so pretty with the music playing. One of the things I appreciate most about Mikuni-Elk Grove is the friendly and attentive service. Today, it has almost 10 locations in the Sacramento Valley, and Im lucky to have the Elk Grove location right on Bond Road. Also there was a big screen mounted on the wall showing beautiful nature scenic pictures. I learned that Mikuni was founded in 1987 by the Arai family, with the first location in Fair Oaks, California. The music playing was mainly flute, but with enough back instruments to make a lovely blend. When I went into the massage room it was very calming. This was my first massage, so I don't have much to compare it with. We enjoyed this very much and would recommend. Our server Robin was delightful and took the time to give us some history about the winery (very interesting). We were pleased all our choices came individually wrapped, along with a cheeseboard and knife (very nicely done for still being in Covid territory). We also had a selections of crackers, cheese and sliced meat. My husband liked the Tannat wine (although it will need to be laid down for a couple more years) and I loved the Sangria (fabulous recipe). My husband ordered their "Estate" tasting (5 red wines) for $15 and I opted for a glass of their Chardonnay for $20 and a glass of their Sangria for $8. Spent a very relaxed 90 minutes on their outdoor patio (not perfect, but we felt fairly distanced from other visitors). Their website says they'll only wait 15 minutes past your reservation time, but with all the construction on Hiway 99, we were about 13 minutes late. We made a 3:00 pm reservation for a table on OpenTable.
