I
think
Jencare
may
be
surviving
on
their
good
name
from
times
past.
It
was
one
of
my
umpteenth
times
going.
As
a
child,
I
can
remember
aspiring
to
go
to
this
spa
when
I
visited
on
several
occasions
with
my
aunt.
My
aunt
was
a
faithful
customer,
so
I
believe
the
standard
used
to
be
higher.
Jencare
used
to
be
the
name
I
most
associated
with
a
luxurious
spa
experience.
I
went
using
a
gift
certificate
for
a
massage
and
a
pedicure.
Both
times
I've
gone
myself
to
receive
service,
it's
paled
in
comparison
to
my
expectations.
Firstly,
I
informed
the
lady
who
was
directing
me
to
my
pedicurist
that
I
would
like
to
have
the
massage
done
first,
because
I
wouldn't
want
my
polish
to
smudge.
She
said
it
wouldn't
be
an
issue.
I'll
address
that
later.
The
staff
that
did
my
pedicure
wasn't
friendly
and
didn't
seem
particularly
concerned
when
I
told
her
she
was
hurting
me.
It
was
not
very
relaxing
as
the
staff
constantly
spoke
to
each
other
about
how
much
work
they
had
to
do,
how
unsavoury
the
working
conditions
are
and
how
slowly
they
do
their
work
(extending
the
time
taken
for
services
for
the
customer)
in
order
to
not
have
to
work
as
hard.
This
is
a
problem
Jencare
needs
to
fix
as
my
spa
experience
lasted
well
beyond
the
projected
time
and
made
my
late
for
my
subsequent
appointment.
Overall,
the
experience
was
much
like
going
to
a
hairdresser
in
how
much
the
staff
talked
to
each
other,
and
worked
on
the
customers
as
if
we
weren't
even
human
beings
that
were
there
receiving
a
service.
When
my
sister
and
mother
visited,
they
had
a
similar
complaint
about
the
staff
and
how
they
were
talking
while
doing
their
pedicures,
and
that
was
years
ago,
so
I
don't
think
this
is
a
new
issue.
The
pedicure
was
well
done,
despite
the
pain.
My
expression
that
I
had
possibly
been
cut
during
the
service
was
received
with
a
vehement
(but
not
rude)
defense
by
the
pedicurist
in
her
words
"to
avoid
a
law
suit"
which
she
fears.
I'm
not
sure
if
I've
even
received
so
much
as
the
cursory
Jamaican
"Hush
ya".
The
lady
who
did
my
massage
was
pleasant,
friendly,
made
me
comfortable
and
responded
to
my
feedback
during
the
massage.
Afterwards,
she
also
asked
me
for
feedback
on
the
experience.
I
believe
her
name
was
Ann
Marie
and
she
is
the
reason
this
review
is
three
stars.
The
experience
for
the
massage
was
very
different
with
a
comfortable
ambiance.
We
had
to
prop
my
feet
up
on
rolled
towels
during
the
massage
which
made
it
less
comfortable
overall,
but
I
can't
fault
her
for
that.
Jencare
must
improve
working
conditions
for
their
staff.
Not
only
because
this
is
the
right
thing
to
do
as
employers,
but
also
because
it's
certainly
affecting
the
customer's
experiences
and
their
business.
I
found
another
spa
that
I
go
to
in
Kingston
and
their
service
is
superb.
I
hope
someday
Jencare
will
improve
so
that
I
am
willing
to
spend
my
money
there,
though
this
is
very
unlikely.
I've
informed
my
friends
and
family
that
this
is
not
my
spa
of
choice.
