Found My New Sanctuary for Facials!

by stephpuleio at Citysearch

It's a neverending search in Manhattan to find a spa that keeps you coming back since there is always some new spot opening or a recent review that keeps you on this holy grail search for the best grooming services...I can finally say my search is over. From the moment I called to book the appointment and the receptionist was beyond accommodating, considering I had never visited before, making sure she was able to book myself and my mom for back to back facial appointments. When I arrived at the serene location tucked away in Tribeca I was pleasantly surprised by the warm atmosphere and kind reception. Kristen administered the best facial I have ever received (and trust me, as a NYC girl who's been getting facials since I was about 15 that's saying alot). It was not until later that I found out she is also the owner, which is hard to believe not onyl because she looks young but also because she was so down to earth and completely void of any ego that I've encountered before with some aesthetician entrepreneurs. I can't say enough good things, from start to finish, she had the most delicate touch, talked just the right amount to let me know what was happening but quiet so that I could relax, and she was truly concerned about helping me figure out the cause of my problem areas and what factors in my lifestyle were contributing to my blemishes. And lastly, she didn't do the oversell, only recommending 3 products that would help and also services that I could go back for which are less expensive and good for when you're short on time just to do maintenance. I have to say that I don't usually get facials more than a few times a year but now that I found this little piece of heaven I'll be a much more frequent facial flyer!

• Pros: Amazing facials, relaxing atmosphere, excellent staff and service
• Cons: none that I could find!

Great Spa, as long as you avoid 'Salesy Stephanie'

by joojorama at Citysearch

Nice spa as long as you don't use Stephanie. She pushes products so hard and relentlessly that all feelings of relaxation are gone. She pushed products during the facial. I said no thank you. She tried again. I said no thank you. After the facial she stood by the register as I paid STILL TRYING TO SELL ME JUNK !!! WTF?!!

JUST MAKE SURE YOU SAY 'NO' TO STEPHANIE!!!!!!!!!!

• Pros: Great services, cozy atmosphere
• Cons: Stephanie who's relentless sales tactics ruin relaxation

Best facials

by lnleclech at Citysearch

I have gone to Kristen at Euphoria several times who is absolutely amazing but she isn't doing facials anymore so I have now been going to Cara who is equally amazing. She recommends great treatments for your skin that work and you come out feeling glowing and relaxed. What more could you ask for!

great massage

by slrob at Citysearch

I had a gift certificate for a massage, which is why I went here in the first place and boy am I glad I did. The people who work here are professional and friendly, I was made to feel comfortable and welcome right away. The atmosphere is somewhat zen/new age, but not overly so. The actual massage is what matters most to me, and they did not dissapoint! Had the most amazing massage, would definitely go back. And I highly recommend it, you won't be sorry.

the best boutique spa!!!!!!!

by jbubreez at Citysearch

I had the most amazing facial and massage at Euphoria. I have been to so many spas and I have to say that Euphoria is the coziest, most charming spa I have ever been to. The staff is so nice, so good at what they do and the apartment size feel to it is what gives this spa it's charm. It's absolutly a hidden little gem!!!

• Pros: Boutique feel, cozy, amazing and talented staff!
• Cons: Not one!

Great Massage but Too Small!

by curlysues27 at Citysearch

My massage was great and the staff was very nice and accomodating however the spa itself is sooooo small! I felt like I was in someone's apartment. When I go to a spa I usually like to hang out there for a bit whether it be reading a magazine or going in the sauna but this place really isn't for that at all. The "locker room" was sooo small it was very odd. But on a good note my massage was fantastic! I probably wouldn't go back based on the fact that when I go to a spa I also go for atmosphere.

• Pros: Nice Staff, Good Services
• Cons: Way too small, not a good day spa to "spend the day at"

Very small and boutique place - amazing service but too small

by diankiny at Citysearch

its in a nice tribeca location but the place is quite small. there are only 2 lounge chairs. sauna was not working. service is great, all people who work there are extremely nice, knowledgeable a, yond accomodating but the place is so small you feel like you are in someone's apartment as opposed to a spa. if you like that, you will love this place because the service is trully great.

• Pros: great people working there, good service, very knowleadgeable staff
• Cons: too small

great service super nice staff

by virginia2 at Citysearch

If you like boutique-ey types of places this is for you. It's not very big and doesn't have all the amenties of the megaspas uptown but the trade off is that the staff is extremely accommodating, helpful and friendly. They offer a wide range of services and the estheticians all seem very knowledgeable about skin care.

• Pros: very friendly and accommodating..good prices
• Cons: not very big
