Nirvana on West 51st Street
by Leigh444
I have found nirvana and it is located just off of 5th Avenue on west 51st Street at Shizuka New York. Last Friday, after an extremely stressful week, working for an extremely demanding boss, I decided to treat myself to a facial. A friend had recommended Shizuka’s and since I work in the neighborhood, I decided to give it a go.
Upon arrival I was immediately impressed with the Asian aesthetic. I was given a kimono, with terry slippers, and a cup of green tea. I could feel my stress start melting away. I decided to get the Micro-Facial, which is a deep cleansing facial with a neck, shoulder, hand and foot massage. Takumi, my aesthetician, has the gentlest touch. From the way she removed my make-up to the way she unclogged my pores. I was transformed; I left my body and floated away. After 90 minutes of sheer bliss, I was gently brought back to earth to find myself totally relaxed with fabulous looking skin.
If you’re like me, and need a mini-vacation to relieve the tension of working in Manhattan, Shizuka New York is the place to go. I can’t wait to go back next week for Anti-Aging Treatment.
- Pros: Relaxing, therapeutic, sheer bliss

Horrible Service from Management, Decent facial
by SpaExpert
My friend and I booked a Geisha facial during Spaweek, we both understand that things can get a little hectic during Spaweek but we were treated so poorly that I had to write this review.
Our experience started with a very rude doorman who shouted for our names and shouted "you sixth floor, you sixth floor too" My friend and I had a 7PM appointment and we arrived at 6:40PM. We waited for about 10min until the manager finally approached us to let us know that they had double booked us and said "sorry but there is nothing that he could do about it" and that "if we were him what would we had him do?" He said that there were only 2 therapists available for the 7PM time slot and that he could "accommodate" us on another day (he did not mention free). We were both surprised because if they had booked 3 of us and me and my friend showed up first then doesn't it make sense to honor our appointments? FINALLY, the other girl with the 7PM appointment showed up and he actually LINED US UP on the sofa and said "Sorry but I think we double booked an appointment, there is nothing that I can do right now but ONE OF YOU WILL HAVE TO COME BACK ANOTHER DAY" Me and my friend could not believe he put us in such an awkward position but luckily the other girl offered to have her facial at 7:50PM albeit not without a little bit of attitude towards us. We just could not apprehend why they would treat their clients like that especially when they know that they were the one who made the mistake. Instead of rectifying the situation they decided that they wanted 3 unhappy clients.
The facial tho rush was decent. I got Shizuka and she mentioned right before the facial that this will be a shorten version of their regular Geisha facial (which although was not advertised earlier) I was fine with.
- Pros: Decent facial
- Cons: Rude Staff, A-bit overpriced

amazing facial with amazing facialist!
by marcjacobsfanatic
i've been to several reknowned spas and this one takes the cake. i'm usually pretty particular about the places i go to, i'm a loyalist through and through. i don't mind spending the money, as long as the quality of work is what i feel is my money's worth. looking up on google, i came across shizuka as a new york mag best of facial. i immediately booked an appt with shizuka herself, and was excited from all the amazing reviews i had read about her. when i first showed up for my appt i was directed to change into a more comfortable robe and soon, shizuka led me into a room for a consultation. after briefly distinguishing my concerns from my problems, she suggested that i go with the micro facial. i had made it clear that i was willing to pay whatever i had to clear up the recent bout of congestion my skin had been suffering, but since she knew i was going to hawaii within the following weeks, she recommended that we hold off on the LED light or microdermabrasion.
i really respected her honesty. i've worked in skin care for years, and knowing i was going to be in the sun, i wouldn't have opted for either one. such harsh sun as can be found in hawaii would wreak havoc on my new layer of skin. i really like the fact that shizuka is quite professional and not pushy at all. from now on, i plan on going to her for all my facial needs. when i emerged that day, i had slight redness (which is only natural from extractions). i have purchased her moisturizer and the naturopathica 10% gel to clear up the congestion. i'm waiting a full month before i see results (your skin renews itself every 30 days), but will keep you updated!
the only thing, as someone has prior mentioned, is that not that many extractions were done as other places i have been to. albeit my skin was pretty congested, i have been to other places where they have done long arduous extractions and i would still choose shizuka over them.
- Pros: the lady knows what she's talking about
