O Spa

06/21/2008 Posted by brianddr428

I am not a frequent spa goer because I am pretty picky about cleanness and level of services. I only willing to go to resort spas and that sometimes disappoint me. However, my girlfriend invited me to O Spa for a couples massage for my birthday. We were taken into a nicely decorated couples room. Two massage therapists served us side by side. I have to say, my therapist really had magic hands. After the massage, I seriously feel much younger and better. Lisa felt the same way too. In addition, this place is very clean and the staffs are definitely highly trained. This will be a frequent place for me to visit from now on for sure.

Pros: Friendly, clean and professional staffs

Cons: none

I've been going to O spa for the past 6 months now and I'm addicted. I agree with the other reviewer who said they don't ever seem to be in a rush and they are very extensive in their services. I will be treating my boyfriend to a facial this week since they offer couple's service and I'm sure he'll be as big a fan as I am.

My boyfriend John and I went there and it was a very relaxing experience for the both of us. I didn't think it would be as romantic as it was ! They light candles, play relaxing music. The massage therapists were really nice and talked to us before the massage to take time to understand what we both wanted from the massage. The hour actually went by slow and I didn't feel like they were rushing or leaving anything out. John and I have been in many spas for massages and we like this place the most. We are definitely going back.

Pros: romantic designed room, great staff and great massage

Cons: none

I had a brazilian wax with Ada today and was very pleasantly surprised. I used to go to spas in Manhattan for my brazilians but was looking for a more local place to go here in Bay Ridge. The first thing of note is that O Spa is a beautiful & relaxing spa environment; the decor is lovely. Most importantly the wax itself was super duper fast, sanitary and well executed. Ada was EXTREMELY thorough (she didn't miss a spot) and conscious of making it as painless as possible. I highly recommend her. In addition it is about half the cost of what I paid in Manhattan for a much nicer experience overall and a comparably excellent service.

Pros: experience and skillful staff, great atmosphere and good price

Cons: None

I went here for a swedish massage twice and loved it, I had two different girls kathy one time and Ada another, they were both great. and speak the best english there. They applied good pressure not too strong and not too light. Ada has a lighter touch but was great if you like more pressure Ada is excellent. but I'm a licensed esthetician so i wouldnt get a facial there only because they dont seem licensed, every girl that works there does everything from nails, facials to massages. and the steam shower is only for one person. but this is a nice place for a couples massage and a body treatment.!

Pros: Great massage, staff and prices

Cons: more likely than not, they arent licensed

I recently visited my accountant's office in Bay Ridge and they recommended O Spa to me when I mentioned I could use a little pampering. I was so pleased with my services. I felt right at home from the moment I walked through the door and when I was taken to wait for my services I was not expecting to see such a beautiful spa right in the heart of Brooklyn. My massage relaxed me and my facial put me right over the top, if it was up to me I never would have left. I will definitely make O Spa a regular stop whenever I am remotely near Bay Ridge.

Pros: Quiet, clean, beautiful, professional staffs

Cons: difficult to find parking

I have been to O Spa once and I will definitely be going back. I got a brazilian bilkini wax and it was actually the least painful one I have ever gotten ! The staff was excellent and the facility was very clean and tranquil. I look forward to go back and try their massage and facial.

Pros: Great staff, beautiful place and good price

Cons: None

I recently received a gift certificate for a massage at O Spa in Bay Ridge. I was told to see Kathy. She must have magic hands that my back pain was totally gone. If you are overworked or simply like to pamper yourself, go see Kathy at O Spa. The spa was clean, the atmosphere was comfortable, the Sauna was awesome. My advice would be to get there early to sip on a complimentary herbal tea.

Pros: excellent massage, great atmosphere, staff really care about their customers

Cons: None

I decided to get my best friend a gift for her birthday so I took her to this awful place. While waiting I figured why not get a massage as well to check out the services, since I do enjoy a good massage once in a while. The levels of unprofessional employees at this place it shooting through the roof. It seems as though none of the massage therapists are licensed to say the least. The employees there barely speak any English, which made it very hard to communicate exactly how I wanted my massage; they just kept nodding their head and doing as they wanted with my back. Each person has a preference with their back, for example I have a very sensitive back and spinal area, so I prefer a lighter pressure massage. Every professional massage therapist is supposed to feel the kinks or the areas to avoid on someone's back. Oh no not this place. I positioned myself onto my stomach; face down, when the therapist proceeded to push down quite roughly in three different places on my back without asking my permission of such an act. Not everyone can handle that pressure. Afterward she continued on giving me a very rough massage, when I repeatedly asked her not to. After the whole miserable experience, I went home and started feeling very lousy. I woke up the next morning and I could barely walk. The pain in my pack was getting worse as the days went by. I proceeded to see an orthopedist, and he recommended for me to get an MRI. I felt in my heart I knew that therapist had truly done something horrible to my back. When I got my results back I was right. I had a disk bulge in my lower back. I cannot explain to you how horrible the pain is. I now have to go through physical therapy and treatments for a long time. I am also considering suing the place. DO NOT GO HERE TAKE IT FROM ME AND MY HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE.

Pros: Cheap

Cons: They are not professionals

My Husband gave me the the expensive package they have plus a pedicure and manicure, and i also paid for the brazilian wax for Valentines Day 2/14/08. They are very friendly. The rock massage was the best ever i just felt all my stress melting away. Then the sea salt scrub felt so good. Put it this way everything was PERFECTO. The Spa is very cozy and cute. I really like the look. I recommend anyone to go there you will definitely feel refreshed when you come out.

Pros: EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT.
