I had a wonderful experience at Sanctuary Spa. My masseuse, Jenny, was so careful and thoughtful the entire appointment. She first asked if anything was causing me stress and where I held it most, if anything made me feel uncomfortable, and gave me a verbal agenda for how our time would be spent. Several times during our appointment she checked in with to see if I was feeling ok, if the pressure felt right or if she needed to work on a different part; having someone show that level of care made me feel safe and relaxed. Before I knew it the hour was up - I couldn't wait to book another session

As a gift I took my mom and I here for a 60 minute massage for both of us. Our massage therapist were Jenny and Emily and they were amazing! My mom said it was one the best massages she's ever had and she's quite picky with massages. Their space is incredibly welcoming and relaxing. They make you feel very comfortable and work with you on any problem spots you might have. We're hoping to make this spot a regular for us!

Upon arriving, the signage says to stay in your car, call and they will confirm or flag when you can come in. I followed instructions but no one answered. Finally I took my chance in came inside and it was a very kind front desk attendant but I saw she was on another call so understood why she didn't answer. She immediately escorted me to the back for restrooms then set me up
I told her the first time she checked in on me that I didn't feel or see any steam because it was too low. She said she would turn up the heat. As you can see in the image, the steam bowl had no steam and wasn

Lovely experience! The staff is friendly and the place is clean. I had a hot stone massage and it was heavenly. My therapist, Emily, had an excellent technique. She was great about checking in and making any adjustments to the treatment. They have covid procedures in place which are clearly stated. Overall, highly recommend!

Really enjoyed this spa experience last week! My sister took me here for a belated birthday present and we were both wowed by the personal experience provided. They make you wash your hands first upon entering the spa (obviously great too because we can use the bathroom before the appointment). Then the waiting area is super fragrant and relaxing. Jill was my esthetician and my sister had Tamara. Both ladies did amazing taking care of our skin and suggested products specific to our skin type (which we both took and bought). I purchased the prickly pear oil and have been using it twice daily to

This is an amazing spa which I only recently discovered (via a friend's referral) and I'm so glad I did. I booked half a day at the spa for my birthday. Kicked off with a 90-min massage with Tina (who was amazing!) followed by a yoni steam treatment (tried it for the first time, and will definitely head back for follow ups). Everything about my experience was incredible. The staff was super nice, professional and attentive. It's a quiet facility; I think they manage the number of customers they allow at a time, which I appreciated as I got the peace and quiet I was hoping for, and isn't that why

Desperately needed a massage due to an injury. Lauren really took her time and worked out all of my pain points as well as working on the rest of my body. I'm no longer aching and can finally get some rest tonight! I feel a few visits with lauren can fix me up long term. Aside from her knowing what she's doing, she took the time to still make the massage comfortable as much as therapeutic. I plan to come back on a regular basis. Don't waste your time at a generic chain, this place will do the trick!

This place has been my favorite new discovery of 2020. I always see it when I go to Barnaby's, but it wasn't until my friend told me she gets her facials here that I started to look more into it.
It was easy breezy to call and make an appointment and the process to check in from your car and getting called when you're ready was smooth. They do temp checks at the door before coming in as well.
Jill has been my esthetician and she's amazing! She really listens to my concerns and offers great advice and feedback. I always feel so relaxed during my treatment!

I did a lot of searching for luxurious AND affordable spa experience. Sanctuary Spa is absolutely amazing. I did a trial run my first visit with a 30 minute massage and had my first experience with a yoni steam. I booked my 2nd experience at checkout, it was that great. Yesterday I had a full body massage with Tina (who is unbelievably talented in her technique). I highly recommended Sanctuary Spa for a relaxing, revitalizing, and necessary self-care experience.
