A New Spirit Wellness Center & Spa

01/28/2008 Posted by lillyempire

My husband and I are regulars here and LOVE this place. It has a great atmosphere and the staff make you feel so relaxed and very comfortable. I highly recommend A New Spirit, especially for massages! I haven't had a facial here so I would only assume that the facials are as good as the other services. I did buy the skincare products that they sell and my skin has never looked better! It is just a great place!

Pros: Atmosphere and GREAT massages!

Cons: Parking is on street.

All in all, our experience at A New Spirit was pretty good. We went in for the Romance Package for Two. This package includes an aromatherapy foot bath,wine and chocolates, couples massage and then either a mini facial or foot reflexology. A few things prevented me from giving it a higher rating than 3 starts. First was the check-in process seemed a little unpolished for a spa, second was the aromatherapy foot bath. This was actually just soaking your feet in a little plug-in foot bath that you can buy at Target or anywhere else. I don't know if there were any aromatherapy oils or anything in the foot bathes other than water. Hmmm. The massages and mini facials were great and the staff were very talented at making us relax. Something for you all to consider, should you get this treatment, is to bring along a hat for afterwards. My hair was reeeally greasy after the massage and facial, and I looked very strange walking out of there.

Pros: price, location, good massage therapists

Cons: foot bath, check-in process

My 1st time to A New Spirit was an extremely positive one and the beginning of many repeat visits to come. I did a little research and The Woodhouse (ranked as #1 for Best Massage) got enough negative ratings for me to question it. Didn't go for #2 as well (Revive Spa) because they did not offer a 90-min massage for deep tissue, which I sorely needed. Therefore I ended up at the New Spirit Spa, and I have to admit they've got me as a customer for good. I heard that they do *not* do pedicures there, for ladies looking for that service; however I did see 2 people (1 going in, the other when I was leaving) getting everything else conceivable done for their feet. My massage was with a wonderful lady by the name of Kathryn, who I can vouch is a consummate professional at what she does -- and yet is very holistic and compassionate and will do everything in her power to help you walk out feeling fantastic. The lighting in the room was subdued but not completely darkened, the bed was very supportive and the sheets and pads were very clean -- no holes in as were reported at a few other high-end places! Soft, ambient music completes the escape from everyday life. The oil she used was not overly slick and was a nice complement to her skilled hands. I was able to get the pressure I needed and the force did not increase into the teeth-gritting painful zone that sometimes occurs. Kathryn is a woman of great skill and talent in her field, but I was told by the front desk person Kristin that every one of their therapists are very skilled and amazing, talented people. The business itself is somewhat smaller (not tiny, certainly) than the huge places you might find elsewhere, but I found that this lent more to the charm that being here already cast on me. It is a wonderful place to getaway for an hour or 2 and you will not leave here feeling unpampered!!! They also have in general very gracious business hours to help accomodate working professionals!

Pros: Amazing masseuse and very good value, leaving room for generous tips!

Cons: The minutes will spin by very quickly here :( :( Everyone has to leave Paradise...

If you're really looking for a comfortable place to relax, then look no further. Great staff. Variety of services. Try out the float tanks. It's such a cool experience to be in a dark quiet place with zero gravity. Great for your body and mind. The massage therapists offer a variety of services including Reiki, cranial sacral, prenatal and neuromuscular massage. The prices are reasonable for a spa experience. Their aestheticians are licensed and professional. The hours on Monday and Tuesday are extended to 8pm which is great for someone that works late and they are open all weekend including Sunday. Very low key and zen-like.

Pros: parking, atmosphere, float tanks, staff knowledge, customer service, hours

I have sent my mother AND my husband for their birthdays for all day treatments. They both felt comfortable and really enjoyed the day. It will send many others as well as me for a fun treat.

I can't get enough massages in my life time and decided to try New West because of the location convience. I booked the romance package, on a weekend. The staff was warm and welcoming. I will say I don't like taking my shoes off in a public place, unless I'm offered slippers or something else to wear. They took us back on time. The "footbath" was cold and the warm fireplace was fake and plugged in to the wall? However the massage was awesome. We both got different kinds of massages and really enjoyed them. They served us wine, but the chocalate was just hersey's kisses. Pretty cool experience, and ambiance, oh and the price is affordable. They have a few things to work on, but I'd go back and next time I'm trying the float tank thing!

Pros: location and skill

Cons: new buisness with kinks

Their schedule was at least 30 minutes behind we didn't get a phone call to let us know ahead of time and the atmosphere was tense, our services were okay and this was on a Monday.

Pros: location, unique

Cons: small, unprofessional
