This review is coming from someone who DREADS getting massages because I just kind them awkward and I struggle to relax (totally a "me" problem)... Spa Sway is FANTASTIC! I compete in powerlifting so my body gets pretty beat up and periodic massages helps alleviate some of the pain and inflammation that builds up from training. I had gone to a few different places in and around Austin for a sports massage but didn't love any of them. I decided to give Spa Sway a chance and ended up signing up for a membership before leaving because I had such a pleasant experience! THINGS I LOVED: - Super easy and convenient to book an appointment online - Responsive If/when you do need to call to speak to someone - Convenient location in the Domain right by a parking garage - Receptionists at the front desk were all very pleasant and welcoming - Offered drinks and/or snacks while you wait (who doesn't love snacks?!) - Beautiful waiting area with calming music playing and low lighting to make you feel relaxed - Everything is super clean - Great communication with the massage therapist about my needs - Felt extremely comfortable the entire time I booked an 80 minute sports massage with Travis who was fantastic... I was able to tell him about my massage history, trouble areas, and he communicated very clearly with me the entire time. I like a LOT of pressure and deep tissue work when I get massages which is usually painful and leaves me feeling sore after. Travis used plenty of pressure but somehow it didn't hurt and I wasn't sore... which is the best of both worlds! After finally having a great massage experience in a convenient location and at an affordable price (obviously not the cheapest option but I've also paid way more at other places), I signed up for the "Sway Club" membership which includes a 50 minute session monthly. I'm happy to state that I'm looking forward to future appointments at Spa Sway instead of dreading them like I did at other places!

Have passed Spa Sway many times on my walks through the Domain and I finally got the chance to try it out. When you first walk in you are met by receptionists who check you in then lead you to the waiting area. The waiting area is beautifully decorated and they have complimentary water and tea for you while you wait. It is however pretty small. I guess I went at a pretty popular time because almost all of the couches and chairs are occupied. I didn't have to wait long before my masseuse came to take me back to my room. I will say that the building is definitely bigger than it looks from the outside and they have quite a few rooms. I got the Himalayan Salt Stone Massage. Per their website, this massage zeroes out the body's electromagnetic field through the stone's neutral structure and natural resonant frequency. The pink Himalayan salt stones are known for their healing properties, and they offer relief from symptoms of chronic allergies. This luxurious treatment promotes detoxification, healthy energy levels, muscle function, and enhances sleep quality. It includes aromatherapy, a full-body magnesium-infused massage, and a scalp massage. The many minerals found in Himalayan salt stones (including iron, magnesium, calcium, potassium, and many, many more) will serve to relieve skin conditions, reduce breakouts, and bolster your body's immune system. This is a stone heavy massage, which I didn't realize, so if you are looking for something with a lot of pressure/hand usage, I probably wouldn't recommend this one and would say you should probably opt for a Swedish/deep tissue. Some things to call out that I really enjoyed about this massage: 1) They adapt the temperature in the room to your preference 2) They place a heated eye mask over your eyes when it's time to flip over 3) They cover your feet with the sheet when massaging them. I feel like a lot of places just rub your feet then back all over your body. 4) The usage of hot stones and lavender oil. My only faux pas was that during my massage I could hear my masseuse's personal music during my massage. I definitely don't mind the fact that she played music as I'm sure it assists when you're doing multiple massages/facials a day- I just wish I wasn't able to hear it as it was distracting throughout parts of my massage. Overall, great massage and I left feeling super relaxed and calm.

I've been going to Spa Sway for a few years, and love it! Their was a scheduling mixup with one of their new employees when I arrived, and I was not happy about it, however the way they handled the scheduling mix up was truly professional and took ownership of the mistake. I highly recommend Spy sway as the employees are warm and welcoming. My Therapist "Jen"has been amazing and Nikki took the time to listen to my concerns and made things right. Want to relax and unwind from everyday stress? This is your go to spa...

Day 1 of brown hyperpigmentation patches.
Lisa O.

My buddy gifted me with a partial gift card for my birthday so I prepaid for The Perfect Day Away ($275) as I wasn't comfortable leaving my credit card number on their server. The aesthetician recommended a medium beta hydroxy (salicylic acid) peel. Unfortunately, she hyperpigmented my ethnic skin. I have received approximately forty chemical peels over the last twenty years, and have never hyperpigmented from Dr. Lisa Benest in L.A., a nurse practitioner in the Bay Area, and an aesthetician from Refine Aesthetics. Red spots are expected after a peel, but not brown patches of discoloration. After the aesthetician neutralized the salicylic acid, I pointed to my right cheek and said it was still stinging. She said it was normal, but that is where the large brown patch showed up on my right cheek. My left cheek looks fine. If you have ethnic skin and want a chemical peel, I would recommend Refine Aesthetics. Also, Spa Sway doesn't offer Diamond Glow or vampire facials like Refine Aesthetics. I enjoyed my massage with Nathaly and would come back again for a relaxing massage. They sell Skin Ceuticals and Elta products. However, they are 20% off every quarter at Westlake Dermatology. Spa Sway does not credit your Alle account if you purchase Skin Ceuticals products. It's not completely a spa per se like The Four Seasons Maui, Disney Aulani, Lake Austin Spa Resort, Miraval Austin (both in Austin are top 12 in the nation according to Travel + Leisure), or Burke Williams. There's no steam room, sauna, showers, hot tub, pool, amenities, free fruit or nuts. However, it's a beautiful and relaxing place to get a massage. The Perfect Day Away wasn't a full 180 minutes. It was closer to 165 minutes. I waited fifteen minutes in between sessions as there was no way for the aesthetician to see I had checked in since I had prepaid. If you plan on spending $275 plus 20% tip at Spa Sway for three hours, you may as well spend $307 at Miraval Austin (non tipping resort ranked #12 in the nation) for the nine hour package which includes a $250 credit towards a service, free lunch, snacks, two Infiniti pools, sauna, hot tub, steam room, amenities, and showers. Monique called and they are trying to schedule a free IPL laser to treat the hyperpigmented area.

Crystal H.

Update - Nikki from Spa Sway reached out to me and was very kind and super apologetic for what happened. She has been very communicative and is really working to make this right by connecting me with Personique med-spa and covering the suggested treatments. I am hopeful that this will help and really appreciate spa sway going the extra mile to clear up the hyperpigmentation/hypopigmentation left from my experience.

When I arrived, staff seemed confused by my appointment and the vibe immediately felt awkward. I requested a male masseuse which was accommodated at first. During the massage, the owner interrupted the session to have me redo paperwork while I was face down and topless on the table because I forgot to write the date instead of asking me afterwards. Later, the door was opened multiple times while I was actively being massaged face down so staff could casually talk to the therapist for almost an entire minute. At one point they apparently switched massage therapists entirely without informing me or asking for consent -- suddenly a woman, instead of the man I began with, was talking to me and I had no idea someone else was touching me. One therapist was coughing throughout the session, and another handled my body very aggressively, moving my legs without warning and forcing my hypermobile knees into uncomfortable positions. My neck hurts today afterward. The worst moment was when I was flipping over and the door opened AGAIN while I was completely exposed on top. No explanations or apologies. Overall the entire experience felt chaotic, invasive, unprofessional, and deeply uncomfortable. Honestly I feel violated. I've never had a massage where multiple people worked on me without explanation, the room was repeatedly interrupted, and my privacy felt so disregarded.

Her office is in a nice business park and she keeps everything impeccablly clean and welcoming. She is generous with her time. She let's you set the pace with talking, if ya wanna, but always lets me fall into glorious moments of meditative, peaceful silence. Basically she's very friendly but a consummate professional that can read her customers cues very well. Though she is trained and highly experienced, Susanna seems to often take continuing education courses to increase her knowledge or add another specialty - I really appreciate that! Look into her monthly membership to get the best deal. Try out the hot stone treatment, just did my first one recently and it was neat and really kept me focused on being grounded in my body and that moment because the hot stones kept being introduced to new areas as she progressed with the massage. I just can't say enough about Susanna, she's a salt of the earth type person and highly skilled at her craft!

It had actually been almost 5 years since I had last seen her and after a recent apartment move, I needed her services for my aching body! It was like visiting an old friend and I remembered just how awesome of a person she is and that I should not have let so much time go by without visiting her. A mistake I will try to not repeat even though I have to leave Austin temporarily. She is able to provide the most gentle touch, as well as deep therapeutic pressure for those stubborn knots that don't work with anything else. I have always felt that her skills make me feel relaxed even though I need her stronger touch throughout the session at some points. Her massage room is super cozy and will help you feel completely at ease. Oh, and one final note for those that are more self conscious or don't like to bare all of their goodies! Susanna let's you undress to your level of comfort and always provides a blanket to keep you covered regardless of how bare you go! Don't worry about leaving all oily either. She uses only the best and always wipes any excess allowing anyone to leave like a smooth zombie needing a ride home or at least a few minutes in the parking lot to gather the senses! Try her out. You can thank me later!

I was also always left incredibly bruised afterward, which honestly made me not want to have any more work done. After many hours of research and reading reviews, I finally decided to give SkinSpirit a try, and finding Crystal has been a godsend! Now that I'm nearing 40, I am SO glad I finally found someone I trust with my face! I've seen Crystal several times now and have only had two tiny bruises, which has been incredible compared to my past experiences. Her expertise is obvious, and she has truly made me feel years younger with her work. Most importantly, my results always look natural, which is an absolute MUST for me. I want to look refreshed and like myself, not like I've had work done, and Crystal completely understands that. I've seen her for both filler and Botox and have been so happy with my results. On top of this, I have found the prices to be VERY reasonable and way less than what I have paid in the past. On the rare occasion there was an area I felt needed a little improvement, Crystal never hesitated to help make it right. She's a perfectionist like me, so I always feel like I'm in good hands! She takes her time, pays attention to the details, and genuinely cares about making sure you're happy with your results. Beyond being incredibly talented, Crystal is gorgeous inside and out. She truly cares about her clients, not just about their treatments, but about what's going on in their lives, and I always enjoy seeing her! I seriously can't recommend Crystal enough. I'll definitely be sending my husband her way and spreading the word to anyone who needs a little refresh. I'm so grateful I found her!

I used to get massages on a regular basis but fell off the massage wagon. A friend of mine highlighted that she has gotten massages once a month for the last 14 years. I was definitely behind the 8 ball on massages. My friend's long-term revelation was eye-opening, so I decided to get a massage today with Green Care Massage, which is located on W. Parmer, next door to Tomo Sushi. My massage choice was a deep tissue massage. Those polls are not for curtains!!! When my massage therapist asked me could she work on my back, I thought, I said yes. What she actually said was can I "walk" on your back. In my head, I was thinking why do her hands feel like feet...because they were feet! Snappity, snap, snap...I was getting a full on Ashiatsu massage (also known as back walking massage or barefoot massage). If you are not aware, Ashiatusu is a technique where the massage therapist uses their feet to apply deep pressure while holding onto overhead bars for balance and control. The word "Ashiatsu" is a Japanese word meaning (ashi=foot and atsu= pressure.) Apparently, my back was so tight I needed Ashiatsu first. My massage beginning to end was incredibly effective and rejuvenating experience. From the moment the session began, it was clear the massage therapist was highly skilled and knew her craft. The deep, slow strokes and focused techniques worked through my knots and tight muscles, especially in my back and legs. While there were moments of intensity that you would expect with deep tissue work, it was never painful (pressure...no pain). Afterward my body felt like it had exhaled and breathing fresh air.... well worth the time and money. I could feel the tension evaporating with each targeted movement. It is important note, I felt soreness in my neck and back during the massage that I did know existed previously. After the massage session, I noticed a significant improvement in my mobility and range of motion. My usual stiffness had disappeared.
