Sue, of Sue's Hair Removal, brings years of experience to ancient sugaring methods (called shelta) and customized facials.

Upon entering Splendor, customers are greeted with floral centerpieces, parlor chairs, and wrought-iron tables that evoke images of a European garden.

They specialize in classic and gel manicures and pedicures, with glamorous upgrades available including French manicures and paraffin treatments.

Licensed massage therapist John Slipke helps allay aches with neuromuscular therapy, a medical-massage technique that aims to ease muscle pain, bursitis, and injury-related discomfort. At the start of each appointment, Slipke chats with the client to pinpoint probable causes of tenderness, which may include sciatica, plantar fasciitis, or repeatedly watching Old Yeller. He may also identify pain triggers by analyzing the body's posture. Throughout the session, the client shares feedback, noting when pressure alleviates aches and crackling when attached to a guitar amplifier. After the kneading massage, Slipke crafts a custom wellness plan-including a pain-prevention regimen-with the clinic's internist or chiropractor. Robledo Medical & Wellness Center does not offer prenatal massages.
