    A friend and I came to Dallas for a quick weekend trip. We read the reviews to the Garden Spa and decided to go with them. I'm so glad we did! The atmosphere was calming--they had music, small fountains, and candles burning throughout the spa. They also have a little relaxation room with tea/water and magazines. We each got a massage and facial. The facial was wonderful--the product line they use is organic and fruit-based so each step smelled like a new fruit! The massage was fantastic...I almost fell asleep, and the therapist worked the knots out of my shoulders. We were both very impressed and will return again next time we visit Dallas.

    Mishaele has been highly trained in the areas massage and rehabilitation body healing and energy balancing. I have a severe history with my back and am diagnosed with progressive scoliosis and several other chronic disorders. It was not until I started with Mishaele that I started managing the pain and finding peace in my life. She is definitely the sole reason I am able to manage my back pain and cranial facial pain. Combined with the proper diet and excercise, Mishaele has kept me from having surgery for the last two years. I highly recommend her to you. My spinal surgeons, who are tops in Dallas, think that I am a miracle recovery from two summers ago.As long as I continue to feel this well with my regular appointments with Mishaele, I will stay far away from surgery! You can book appointments with Mishaele on Tuesdays and Saturdays at the Garden Spa and Gallery. Her phone number is 214-732-4275.

    My daughter gave me a massage gift certificate and I got introduced to Ursula and this was the best massage I have experienced. I have not made time to pamper myself and now that has changed since I have felt rested and relieved of stress. Now, my husband and I both get regular massages from Ursula...thank you Ursula and the Garden Spa for relieving our stress.

    The Zen Spa room was amazingly peaceful and relaxing environment. Completely satisfied with the incredible deep pressure massage benefits! I was very impressed that for a very small framed person, she has very strong, healing hands. I felt health and posture improvement benefits from this massage. I'll be sure to ask for Ursula as I plan to be her regular customer.

    This was my Christmas present from my family and needless to say, I told them I want this same gift every year from now on. This was my first massage and I had no idea what to expect, so I was quite nervous. My daughter and I drove an hour and a half and believe me it was well worth it. From the minute we walked in the door until we walked out it was so relaxing it was unbelievable. Cathy S. did my massage and all I can say is WOW. The atmosphere and music were so calming. I did not realize how many aches & pains I had but by the time it was time to go, I was so relaxed I was almost snoring. Cathy was so friendly and nice and knew what she was doing, she put me completely at ease and I felt like my massage could not have been better in any way (other than being longer, then I would have been sound asleep). My daughter's massage was done by Brenda and she just loved hers too. Both these ladies were very professional, friendly and both of us would highly recommend either of the... Read more

    YOU can say WOW! Right after you say AHHHHHHH. If you want or need a deep tissue massage you MUST go to the Garden Spa and ask for Brenda. MAGIC is motion, and Brenda is able to to get you moving like you have never moved before! Surrender for 90 minutes and you too will realize that this is necessary for health and well being. YOU can say WOW, right after you say AHHHHHHH....Go ahead I dare you!

    I've been to alot of spas, in/around Dallas and out of state, but none compares to The Garden Spa. I love everything about it! Serene atmosphere, the calming smell right when I open the front door and every single spa girls give super wonderful..PERFECT massages! The facial by Ruby was awesome, she's gentle so it relaxes you and knows her stuff! I was very afraid to get a facial because of my sensitive skin, but she used just the right organic products...loved it..would go back to her. Everyone there is real nice!

    The experience starts when you walk in the door - the zen atmosphere and aromatherapy begin there, and this is the last place on earth anyone could ever feel like a number! I've had serious car wrecks and thought I would never be able to regain range of movement, much less be pain free, but Laurie's deep tissue massage and reiki have worked out most of the scar tissue and resolved a lot of my pain and mobility issues. My doctors can't believe my progress. I've travelled the world and had massage in Thailand, England, China, Philippines and all over the US, and Laurie Cobbley is THE BEST!!!

    Ruby is absolutely wonderful! The facial was the best ever. She is a true professional and the experience was outstanding. I would HIGHLY recommend her. She is gracious and warm and she made the experience so relaxing and wonderful. I loved the organice products, but they have to be in the right hands. She was just perfect.

    Ruby is absolutely wonderful. She if very nice and professional and did a great job threading and shaping my eyebrows. This is a less painful experience than waxing and does not leave you red.

    I really love leading an active life and Maribel has afforded me that luxury. She really knows how to keep my body from getting injured and from all of the massages I have ever had hers are the most relaxing and most beneficial!

    The Spa is an oasis of calm and relaxation. For the absolute best massage - ask for Brenda. She has a wonderful technique and knows how to provide a deep tissue massage - that doesn't leave you in pain the next day. She takes her time and really focuses on giving you a wonderful massage. I always leave smiling, relaxed and looking forward to coming back. I"ve tossed all my other massage cards away. Try 90 minutes and see how wonderful you feel.

    If you want to relax, have all the tension melt away and nurture your spirit, The Garden Spa is the place to go and Lori or Maribel are who you want to see. They both have strong hands and a nurturing touch that melts all the stress away. This is definitely the best massage in Dallas. The hot stone massage combined with deep tissue work is incredible. Ask for the stomach massage and you'll be so thankful you did. I especially love the special drink they gave me at the end to help me detox...you'll have to go to the spa to find out their secret.

    Life gets busy, stress gets you down and knots build up. Go see Lori. She has the amazing ability to give a 3 hour deep tissue massage and still make you want to come back for more. In addition to giving special attention for a long period of time to every muscle group, I especially love how Lori works your arms, feet and stomach with the most amazing, nurturing energy. She educates you about your body and spirit, if you're open. You leave the massage wanting more and feeling like you just got a big hug. Definitely make and appointment to check it out for yourself...this spa is sooooo worth it!

    Your skin is your largest organ so why not give it the love and attention it deserves...you're worth it. I discovered the Garden Spa after researching where I could get an organic facial. Maribel is awesome. She nurtures your skin and your spirit while applying all the organic edible facial goodies by Eminence. I absolutely love the facials and love using the products at home...especially after they've been in my fridge, feels super good on the skin. In addition to the awesome organic facial from Maribel, she also gives you an extra bonus, a head, neck and arm massage. I love this place. Awesome service, relaxing & nurturing environment and staff. Maribel, you're the best. Thanks for all you do.

    Love Ruby! I first went to her for the eyebrow threading but a few weeks ago I also went for a facial. Fantastic facial! She spent over an hour with me and included a paraffin on my hands with this facial, rubbed my arms, caressed my face. What a facial treatment. She had a natural enzyme that I am unsure of that was used for a exfoliation as well, fantastic facial! I have never had such a fantastic facial in my 41 years! I highly highly recommend Ruby for any service she offers , from eyebrow threading to facials to massage, she is an excellent facial, eyebrow threading rmt!

    I'm one of those men who naturally have crazy, bushy eyebrows - before I started seeing Ruby, it looked like an animal lived on my forehead or something. She does a great job of just cleaning up my eyebrows. She doesn't make my eyebrows look girly at all. She keeps my eyebrows looking natural and normal, while cleaning them up so that they look nice. Most people can't even tell I get my eyebrows waxed, unless they knew me before I started getting them waxed. I've always been afraid of seeming girly for getting an eyebrow wax, but Ruby makes me feel right at home. She does such a great job doing male eyebrow waxes that I've been going to her regularly for years, now. She also convinced me to try one of her facials one time. I'd never had a facial before, but wow. It was an amazing experience. I was so relaxed that I almost fell asleep. Ruby is so friendly and comfortable to be around, that I don't feel awkward for being a man in a day spa. Ruby is also very easy to work with schedul... Read more

    After a very long time this was my first facial with Ruby, the atmosphere of the spa was so relaxing, Ruby?s room was so cozy and comfortable, before we started the session Ruby asked me questions about my skin and the products I use, then she told me about Eminence Organic products, she also told me what kind of facial is best for my skin, she told me about Pumpkin Peal Facial or Hibiscus Facial, after explaining the process she started her session her hands were magic it was amazing. I never had that kind of facial before, her knowledge about skin care, services and products is impressive, and I bought all the Eminence products she recommends. I strongly recommend Ruby and Garden Spa and love to go back there.

    I've had massages all over Dallas and Cathy at The Garden Spa is truly the best ever. The positive nature of the experience started with her room, which has a very quiet, relaxed feel. The music was soft, the lighting gentle and it smelled really good. More than any therapist I've ever been to, she asked where I was hurting, and asked questions that showed she was genuinly interested in my well being. She then followed through and worked on those areas in a very customized way. I travel a lot and I had a shoulder injury from soccer, so my neck and shoulders were a mess. Cathy not only worked the areas directly, she also did some trigger point things (Or something like that. I don't remember exactly what she said) on my hands and feet that were really amazing, and a highlight of the massage. She stretched my arms and legs and used a lot of compression that really worked the knots out. She exudes a very gentle, caring nature, but has the strength and ability to deliver a quality deep tis... Read more

    I am truly indebted to Karen and Lori for their efforts in helping me rehabilitate my shoulder after surgery. With their massage, stretching and encouragement, I have full use of my shoulder (again). I highly recommend the Thai massage for those of you wanting a great stretch, a deep muscle massage and total relaxation. I miss them dearly as I now live in Austin. I visit them again and soon. - Barnet

    This was my first experience in a full body massage and it felt like I had died and gone to heaven. Maribel did a fantastic job on my shoulders. I recently had surgery on my shoulder and it was the best experience I've ever had. The room was nice and cozy like if I was in my house in my bedroom. I felt very comfortable and relaxed. I highly recommend Maribel. High points for Maribel!!

    This is a beautiful and amazing Spa. Walking in you feel like you are in a serene, safe place. The first thing that caught my eye was the table with the beautiful candles and accessories in the front room, you go deeper and you are surrounded with soft chairs for the waiting room and more beautiful candles while soft music plays. This spa is warm and inviting while being a great place for not only Women but Men as well. It?s hard to capture here on this page, it?s such a fantastic spa , I wanted to try everything , not only for me but I wanted to book for Man as well!!!!! They have a room for couples massages and treatments, perfect for a valentine gift! I chose a facial today. Maryanne took care of me. Her touch is so gentle, that if you close your eyes the facial feels like caresses. She has trees above her skylight and it was softly raining that day. Pure Bliss! My skin simply glowed after and I felt refreshed and ready to tackle the rest of my week. You just have to go and ... Read more

    An absolutely amazing experience! I had a very long day and was almost an hour late for my scheduled massage. They were very gracious and offered to relax me with another service that I may need while I was there with another available spa associate. I chose Eyebrow Threading. Have you ever had your eyebrows threaded? I haven?t until now?.. First Ruby took me back to her room?. Each associate has their own room so it is very personal and inviting? Ruby?s had warm dark caramel walls and big green plants with a skylight so you can watch the oak tree sway above you as you relax into this soothing environment ( can you imagine rain? Wow!) . Ruby is a beautiful Indian woman , and as she leaned over me , I thought , I hope mine turn out as great as hers ( big smile) I waited for a painful pluck?. Nothing??I mean no pain at all!!! Eyebrow threading is amazing! It is also a fantastic way to finally get the arch you have been trying to get. I can?t rave enough about eyebrow threadin... Read more

    I am EXTREMELY picky when it comes to waxing and delighted to find Ruby here; she always does a great job by understanding what you as a client wants. During past few months here at Garden I also tried deep tissue massage & facials but my discovery here was Eyebrow Threading, thanks to Ruby who uses this twisting cotton thread technique which is awesome and no-pain way-to-go. The staff here is very, very attentive and the aestheticians are wonderful! The treatment rooms are lovely and so serene. I highly recommend this spa for pampering or stress relief!

    Me & my boyfriend went in for a couples massage and Karen & Cathy were wonderful!! My boyfriend said it was the best massage he had ever had and he's really picky about his massages!! I really loved Kathy too! She was very attentive & I give both of the masseuses 5 stars. I had a facial by Ruby and it was ok. I am a really big fan of facials & I loved the Eminence products but it seemed like she rushed through my facial and there was a lot of exfoliant still left in my eyes when I left. My favorite part of facials are the extractions and I felt that she rushed through it. I give her 3 stars for being friendly, but her facials could use a little more attention to detail. I would definitely go back, but maybe try someone else for the facial. Go definitely for the massage but make sure you get someone good if you want to get a facial!

    Walking in is an experience in itself. You are surrounded by therapist and estheticians with some great energy and the services were top notch. I am now a fan of threading! The esthetician, Maribel does a great job with the facials and even the Microdermabrasion was relaxing. Massages and wraps are top shelf with knowledgeable therapists. They also sell Eminence products, they can be hard to find and my face is noticibly different than it was a couple weeks before I went in for services. Go see the girls at The Garden Spa!

    It was horrible! I came in for a wax and the lady did a terrible job! She didn't even use a light or a mirror! I still had lots of noticable hair and the girl seemed more concerned about my horoscope instead of doing her job. She insisted on taking money from my change as a tip as well. (she didn't have enough money to make correct change) Maybe the massages are good- I'll never know because I won't be back.

    Lorri and Karen are amazing. They pay attention to the needs of your body and you as a client. They cater to everythign that you need walking through the door and make sure that you leave satisfied. You're instantly feel relaxed the minute you walk through the door and smell the aromatherapy! The rooms are dim and quiet and the techniques used have been mastered by all therapist. Not only do they offer a variety of massage, they also have a facialist Maribel who is amazing. She's very gentle and effective, and everyone there makes me laugh! I haven't had a chance to interact w/ all of the therapist but I know that they're quality! I look forward to my visits with these girls, they define what a spa should be. DONT waste an opportunity to visit the spa.
