Best spa in town – On a holiday visit to NYC I headed for my favorite Spa in the whole world. Spa Ja on West 56th St. James and Giovanna have created a unique oasis. All organic, with superb estheticians. After my usual fabulous facial and mani/pedi I was introduced to a new member of their team - Micheal Red Sky a Cherokee Indian who does traditional Cherokee energy work and massage. After my session I find, unbelievably, that I can now walk 2 miles a day, lift weights and workout on a treadmill. Activities that that I had ... read more

Very disappointing mani/pedi, go else where – I am a huge spa lover , especially for mani and pedis, so after visiting SpaJA for a number of services I decided to give their mani/pedi a try. I was there about two weeks ago and i cannot complain on their customer service. I was greeted warmly, offered a cup of tea and everyone was so attentive. My nail tech greeted me warmly and took me upstairs. She let me into a very cramped room. I was expecting a nice little tub with water jets so I can just relax but all i came across wa... read more

Business response:

I am pleased that you enjoyed our customer service and was surprised by your criticism when no complaint was made at the time. I am sorry that your mani/pedi did not meet with your expectations. We do have some admitted shortcomings while other issues you mentioned are by design. We use ceramic bowls because they are perfectly hygienic and do not have water jets because they are the opposite of that. We take great care in providing the most hygienic treatment possible. We also do not use driers, as they cause the polish to c... read more

Didn't like facial, place a little creepy – I'm surprised at all the good reviews here. I bought a tanning package at Spa Ja. They were very high-pressure in their sales tactics, trying to get me to upgrade, then to buy lotions, etc. (the woman assured me that tanning lotion was an absolute necessity.). The way they greet you is nice, giving you a warm wet cloth and some snacks. But honestly, I was a little creeped out by the place. Often I was the only person in there, and I believe that 3 out of the 5 times I went, the own... read more

Business response:

This is not a legitimate review. It is a viscious attack by an anonimous competitor, who's efforts would be better spent trying to emulate the high level of service we provide. Spa Ja and our business practices are accurately discribed in scores of reviews on this site. This is a regretful cost of the success we have created through our caring efforts, and it very much saddens us.

Loved the Polarity Therapy! – I made an appointment at Spa Ja for polarity therapy one day after a long week and it was the best thing I could have done for myself. The minute I walked in the owners were taking care of me, making sure I could unwind with some tea and treats before having my massage. Then I met Alexandra who was this amazing bundle of kindness. She literally could read my energy - and me - like a book! The massage was almost deep tissue but not so much that it was uncomfortable, just thoroughly therapeutic an... read more

Best Spa in NY to look and feel great!!!! – I love Spa Ja!!! The atmosphere is so relaxing, the staff is great, the owner is always around making sure everyone is happy. I used to be skeptical then I started doing a cellulite treatment with Lides and really saw results! I lost measurements! It is amazing! Now that I am pregnant Lides makes sure I don't retain too much water and treats my circulation. All the products are organic, so it's ok even if you are pregnant! LIDES is the BEST masseuse I have ever met in my life! You ... read more

Always a great experience – I've been to Spa Ja countless times and am always happy. They aim to please. Iza is fabulous for facial and Flor for bikini waxing. The brazilian manicures are a nice treat .... but a little overpriced -- nice gift, but I wouldn't pay for it myself! What's also amazing is that you can just call same day for an appt and surprisingly there's always something. Also, they have great hours. I believe they are usually open until 9pm!

Great Massage – I recently visited Spa Ja and was very impressed. The staff and owners are extremely friendly and accomidating. The environment is also very relaxing from the waiting area to the individual rooms. It is very peaceful and serene, which is a true find in the city. I felt extremely relaxed afterwards. This spa is very unique and is worth the trip!

An Oasis of calm for a stressed-out soon to be Bride! – I have been going to Spa Ja about twice a week now for the last 2 months. A little self-indulgent? Maybe, but honestly it has been the key to my sanity in a world where getting a Masters Degree and planning a wedding simultaneously have me a bit crazed. I have been in the care of Alexandra who has taken me to levels of calm I did'nt think exsisted. I originally bought a package of treatments for cellulite reduction but in the hands of Alexandra and her partner Mabel, it... read more
