I went to Essential Therapies before a formal engagement party. I had a massage while the bride-to-be had her facial done and then we switched services. The staff was amazingly accommodating and even let us bring a bottle of champagne to celebrate with our lunch in the garden afterwards! I'm kind of a clutz with makeup so the aesthetician did...

My first visit to Essential Therapies Garden Spa was perfect in every way. The services and products they provide are outstanding. I hooked my mom up with a massage with them for her birthday and the staff even went out of their way to surprise her with flowers on her special day. This is the place to go if you... More

Essential Therapies was the only spa that offered all I was... More
