Spa Salons near West Newton

“Came here for the first time for a float and overall had a very nice experience. The rooms and pods are spacious, the shower pressure and products are great, and everything was very quiet and relaxing. I also appreciated the movable towel rack and that the room lights automatically shut off. The receptionist was warm and friendly, and she apologized profusely when the filter came on halfway through my session.

I do have a few suggestions based on experiences at other float centers. It would help if trash were emptied after each session so guests feel like they’re entering a freshly prepared space. The floors, both in the rooms and hallways, could also be wiped down more often to reduce salt getting on clothes after changing.

Providing rubber slippers at the entrance would help prevent slipping and would also make things easier in winter when you have to put socks on damp feet. The rugs should also be slip-proof — this was honestly a bit scary, especially as I’m pregnant, and I’d worry about an older family member slipping. Finally, having a chair in the room would help since the bench doesn’t leave enough space for clothes, bags, and sitting while changing.

Overall, I enjoyed the experience and would come back, and I hope these suggestions help make future visits even better.“

“Today was my first visit at D’Arcy wellness and I met with Dr. Kate Masterson. I did not know what to expect going in but my sister in law told me I had to go see her. From the moment Dr. Kate Masterson greeted me I immediately loved her energy. She is very professional and kind. I was blown away by all the things I learned today. I left feeling very light. I’m excited for this journey. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a functional medicine provider. I will be referring all my friend and family.“

“I have been a long time customer for more than 10 Years to this Salon and Aveda products. Having been using Aveda color (chemical free) for years its been protecting my hair and so is my Salon. hassle free appointments and friendly staff.

Stylist: Hahn is amazing stylist. She is patient and works really well on frizzy, curly hair. She has been my stylist for 10 years“

“This is my first time here great massage and professional.It’s very comfortable and relax.Easy to make an appointment. I would recommend and come back again.“

“Anca’s the best! She completely cleared my hormonal acne after three months and was very honest with me about how we were going to treat it. Every single facialist/med spa I’ve gone to has made me break out more or was a temporary solution for my skin. She’s truly there to help you with your skin concerns and she’s the only esthetician I trust.“

“I had an amazing wax and facial with ava! It was my first time for both and she was extremely thorough and made me feel so comfortable! She is extremely knowledgable in skin in all departments, and made me feel so pampered and made me motivated to take care of my skin!“

“Fernanda was amazing! Everyone says wonderful things about her and they’re all true. She was very patient and understanding with me. I was shy about waxing but she gave me a lot of courage and friendly encouragement. We talked the whole time so I wouldn’t feel/think about the pain as much. I’ll be back soon for another session for sure!“

“First time getting a Thai massage at Baan and it was probably the best massage I’ve ever had. I did the combo massage (Thai, deep tissue, Swedish, and hot stones) with Sue, and it was both therapeutic and relaxing. She helped work through tight hips and a frozen shoulder, and was excellent at adjusting pressure when needed. I left feeling so much better. Absolutely would come back again!“

“Speechless.... Some people are massage therapists and facialists. And then some people are healers.

I went to Karuna hoping for a nice session and walked out inspired. I had my session in february and it was wonderful. Great skin. Beautiful office. Relaxing environment. But I also stayed after to chat with the owner and it kicked off this amazing healing journey.

There's something really special about Michelle and I can't wait to go back for my next session.

I'll also mention that I drove an hour to see her... and the drive was worth it.“

“I had an amazing service and great customer service interaction. This is my second time coming and will be back!“

“Suzy was great in attention and listening and caring for my needs. I went in torture facial and with the sensitivity of my skin, I was scared but it went so well. The experience was so rejuvenated and calm and my skin didn’t react bad and that me feel so well. Thank you!!“

“I’m so glad I found Sage! I originally booked a buccal and sculpt facial because I struggle with TMJ and overall facial tightness, and it has been a game changer. Rian is incredibly knowledgeable, and her ability to combine massage and skincare into one treatment is truly next level.

I now see Rian monthly, and she customizes each 90-minute session based on how I’m feeling and what I need most. She always starts with a back and neck massage (which I really need due to tight shoulders and back), and treatments often included lymphatic drainage, buccal massage, sculpting massage, as well as peels and extractions.

Since seeing her, she’s also recommended products that are helping fade my acne scars and manage breakouts better than anything I’ve tried, without irritating my sensitive skin. :)“

“I had a lovely gentleman’s facial with Sarah last week. She made the experience very comfortable and relaxing, and my skin felt smooth and refreshed afterward. I looked good for my Award ceremony.

I also really appreciated the at-home skincare tips she gave me and her help with building a better routine to maintain the results after my facial. This place seems really on point.

I highly recommended to try them out.“

“This was my first visit and I will definitely be back! Irina made me feel so welcome and was very professional and knowledgeable.
My brows looked amazing with no redness at all afterward which is a bonus for me!
Looking forward to more services with them.
10/10!“

“I've now visited The Bella Boutique Spa twice, and I can say without hesitation that this place has earned a loyal client in me.

My first visit was for the Signature Facial, and the results were beyond what I was expecting. My skin had a genuine glow, the facial tension and puffiness I'd grown used to was visibly reduced. I left feeling so beautiful and seriously couldn't wait to come back.

Today I returned for the Vitamin C Facial, and once again I'm beyond happy with the results.

A huge part of what makes both experiences so exceptional is my esthetician, Lesley. She is truly amazing because she brings both deep knowledge and genuine passion to her craft. Both visits, I've walked away having learned something new — whether it's real opinions on trendy products, recommendations for dupes or inexpensive options, or why a certain massage technique makes a difference. She doesn't just perform a service; she educates and empowers you, which makes the whole experience feel incredibly personalized and intentional.

If you're looking for a spa where the results speak for themselves and the expertise behind them is real, The Bella Boutique Spa is it. Book with Lesley — you won't regret it!“

“TLDR: Quick and convenient scheduling by phone (accommodating of unique needs/preferences with same-day/next-day bookings often available); Incredibly homey and thoughtfully crafted atmosphere upon entry; Highly consistent services that feel as luxurious and as professional as spas asking for more than double, at some hotels even triple the price; Consistently warm and friendly staff; Easy to fit into spontaneous plans.

For anyone visiting from out of town: Sway is easily accessible via public transport (both bus and train; Kenmore stop) and is within walking distance of many hotels. Staff have been consistently warm and notably welcoming to first-time visitors based on my initial experience, observations and conversations overheard while in the waiting room.

Sway has become a part of my self-care routine/rotation (so much so that I picked up a small part-time gig exclusively to fund my spa days). They make me feel like family while there, and their services have consistently left me feeling so relaxed just the thought of an upcoming appointment has become soothing. Based on observation, it seems you cannot go wrong with any of their staff. Based on experience, I highly recommend asking for Lucy, Sheli, and/or Sarah, and asking about integrating aromatherapy when you get there“

“This is my second time getting a haircut at this salon, and I’ll definitely be coming back again! Everything is top-notch — professionalism and quality. I’m very happy with the result and highly recommend this place!“

“Dr. Ilona DuBuske is the absolute best! She was very helpful when it came to answering all of my questions, as well as walking me through the entire lip filler process. She answers very fast post-treatment so if you have any questions she will always be there to help you! I recommend her to everyone, she is truly amazing at what she does and I love the results so much! Very professional and lovely at what she does. If you’re looking for any aesthetic services please go to her, I promise you will not regret it!“

“Jill was phenomenal ! The best massage in a while. I could come here over and over again“

“My favorite local spa, it’s clean, relaxing, with a great steam room and the staff is fantastic. Definitely recommend asking for Reggie if you’re getting a massage he’s done wonders for my back problems.“

“This place is amazing! Mia specifically has a true gift and has helped me skin so much after even just 4 visits. The vibes are so relaxed, it truly allows me to unwind during my visit. Mia takes her time and is knowledgeable, I literally look forward to my facial day every single month. Could not recommend this place enough, it is really special and very well run!“

“I had my first massage appointment with Nina here, a 90 min Thai combination and she was an excellent massage therapist. She was attentive to my needs and I left the session feeling much more relaxed. I will definitely book again and hope to have her as my therapist. The location is very nice, clean, and the room was comfortable.“

“Got the neck, shoulders, and head rejuvenation, which was incredibly relaxing. But have gotten many other services here. Always an absolutely wonderful experience!“

“Jenny’s hands down the best eyebrow tech I’ve had. She listens to my preferences and consistently delivers on design and shape. The location is cute and clean and everyone is very respectful and professional.“

“I was visiting my sister from out of state and she had recommended i get a facial from Sabina. It was my very first facial, perfect timing too since I was in the market for one. Let's just say I will continue to get facials back home! Sabina explained each step and she was very knowledgeable on my skin prior to starting. I am day 3 post facial and I look better everyday. I'm a 28 yr old mom of 3 and my face was looking very dull and flat. She also gave me some suggestions on how to better my skin in my daily routine. I did not leave with red, irritated skin. My sister even said she couldn't stop looking at my face lol. 10/10 recommended.“
