Spa Habitat

A friend of mine recommended Spa Habitat and I can honestly say it was great. I had massages in the past, but Zaida has great hands. She made me feel very comfortable since the moment she introduced herself. I will definitely recommend Spa Habitat and ask for Zaida. You will not regret it.

Putting the «therapy» in massage therapy, the therapists at Flagship can really do miracles to the body. Wether you have arthritis and battle inflammation, or burden your body with tension and stress, they can treat it at the source in a way that gives you lasting results. In my personal opinion you can’t do better than Zaida’s style which is medically based rather than your typical Swedish massage. The flagship location has recently been renovated and has a warm inviting feel which really sets the tone for the phenomenal massage you’ll be preparing for when you arrive.
Their proprietary raw product line enhances the experience even more with their inflammation reduction and warm/​cool soothing sensations. Oh and be sure to add in some of their extras like hot stones to really treat yourself!

I absolutely love this place. They get you nice and relaxed as soon as you walk in the door starting with the warm neck wrap. All the stress and tension just melts away. Spa Habit is the best & I will not go anywhere else. The receptionists are always really nice, friendly & accommodating. They have such a nice and relaxing atmosphere. It is a little pricey but very worth it! Every massage I’ve had here has been amazing.

I just left Spa Habitat, I had their signature organic massage. I have never been so relaxed. it was such a pampering experience. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to treat and pamper themselves. Some salons and spas can feel a little snobby .not this place. Everyone was so warm and welcoming. I can’t wait to go back. Only downside is that it’s very pricey, no 49.99 groupon here. I feel it was worth it tho and will definitely return.

I’ve been to Spa Habitat for both massage and facial before but this time I wanted to try a spa package. I selected the Tree Hugger package which includes a Flower Power facial, Green Peace massage and Organic Foot Ritual. Laura did a fantastic job with the foot ritual and massage. Since I’d had the foot ritual first that include a very relaxing foot/​leg massage she asked if I’d like to spend more time in a different area during my massage. The pressure was perfect and I just melted away.
Jessica did the facial and she quietly let me know each step of the way without ruining my totally relaxed mood from my massage. She was informative about the products without being pushy as many places are.
I highly recommend the whole package but any of the three pieces would be a wonderfully relaxing treat.

Best deep tissue massage in my life. I highly recommend Mike, he has great hands and knows the perfect amount of pressure to apply. He’s also extremely welcoming and friendly. The front desk ladies were so sweet. This place is so cute! I love their organic supplies and how they use nothing but organic products for your treatment. I am a huge fan and will be going here from now on for all my spa treatments!

Spa Habitat is like going to a friend’s house for a spa day. That may sound weird and remarkably awkward, but it isn’t; I assure you.
With a friendly front desk, a warm reception area, and on-​time appointments, the start to your own Treat Yourself 2015 day here will be just f i n e. Then, the goodness continues… no matter which service you choose. I had a Green Peace massage (55 min) with Erin and it was so calming that, when I was checking out, I looked like I had napped for four or five years.
You should head over to this cute little house, even if you feel you don’t have the time. One of my resolutions this year is to make regular appointments to MAKE the time. Finally, a resolution I can keep! My future self already says «thank you».

My hubby went all out and got a great spa package from here back in Feb. Can’t believe I am just now reviewing it. But i still dream about that spa experience. I cringed at the price when I saw the credit card charge, but it was worth every penny. One of the best local spa experiences on record, and I have been to lots of spas. Don’t miss out on the foot ritual. It was fantastic.

Attention, folks in the Dallas/​Plano area: you have to visit Spa Habitat in Plano, and you have to get a facial from Juliana.
I flew into Dallas this past Saturday, the day after the fire in O’Hare Airport’s air traffic control facility. My flight was delayed for hours and I missed the appointment I’d made for a facial. I don’t like standing people up for any reason, but the staff couldn’t have been nicer about rescheduling for the next day. I really appreciate their kindness!
The next day, I arrived for my facial and fell in love with the place. It’s calm, relaxing, and smells wonderful. They use (and sell) products that are natural and aromatic… just crossing the threshold made a difference. I was welcomed graciously, given a warm neck wrap, and didn’t have to wait long to meet Juliana.
She brought me to a lovely, large-​but-​still-​cozy service room. We talked about my concerns, she made some recommendations which I accepted, and I got an absolutely wonderful facial. She did battle with some nasty outbreaks of acne (she won!) and undid weeks of stress, all in 90 minutes. She has a wonderful massage technique and is a calming presence herself — she’s friendly but low-​key. I’m a facial fanatic, and hers belongs in my Top Ten.
A note about Spa Habitat’s background music… a lot of spas play New Age-​y music, heavy on the pan flutes, or environmental sounds set to New Age-​y music. Not this place. Even though I gave myself over to the facial and not the sound system, I still thought, ‘This is really good music!’ Very relaxing, and not at all like ‘The Day Spa Band’s Greatest Hits.‘
I won’t be in Dallas again any time soon, but I could be tempted to fly in just to visit Spa Habitat. Luckily for you good folks in the Dallas/​Plano area, they have spas within driving distance. Please visit them. They know what they’re doing, and they do it very well.

Simply amazing, have never been let down here, always a wonderful experience. THANK YOU ERIN FOR KEEPING ME HAPPY!

By far, one of the best deep tissue massage experience I’ve ever had and it was all thanks to Benjamin Parker, great therapist, amazing technique and extremely intuitive and skilled. He took care of the aches in my upper back, totally worth the money!
Nice staff, they go out of their way to make you feel welcome and relaxed. Parking is free.

AMAZING! My new favorite place for massages! Ask for Krystal, I’ve seen her two times now and she honestly is such a gem. I’m sure everyone is great but she definitely has magic hands!
I love the Green Peace massage but also highly recommend adding the Hot Stone treatment. They have so many options to choose from for massages/​facials etc. They also have couples massages that are amazing too!
Not only is this a place where you can get incredible massage treatments but the charm of the spa adds so much more to the experience. The spa is located in a sweet little home filled with so many amazing aromas that put your senses at ease the moment you walk in the door. I especially love that all of their treatments use only organic products so I don’t have to worry about any weird reactions on my sensitive skin.
Every time I’ve visited them the experience has been relaxing and memorable. I would definitely recommend a trip here or gifting this experience to someone else!

I have been here 5 times and am going again this afternoon and it is the absolute BEST! Juliana is my go-​to gal for the foot ritual and any of the facials (The seasonal ones are great and always smell so yummy!) This is a true apothecary – and they only use Clovertree products which are all natural, organic, pure, and have no additives.
I really can’t say enough about Juliana, she’s peaceful, gentle, and really lets you relax. I have recommended her to at least 3 other people and I am going to send my man in soon to have have his first facial, because I trust this woman to do a great job. I’m sure the others there are also great, but I am a loyalist and like to stay with the same people.
I have had the herbal back treatment as a gift once and it was wonderful! Unfortunately, I do not remember my technician :(
They also do Facebook «like» contests or check-in’s where you get free products – so watch for that.
I do like that I can book an appointment with little notice if I’m feeling down and need some pampering… that’s a good feeling to not have to wait 6 days/​weeks for an appointment.

Well were do I begin. Let’s start with the day 2 years ago i took my hubby to Spa Habitat to get a nasdage for a special occasion. He was given a glass of freash water & a warm neck towel. Then in walks in an angel. Nancy. From the moment she shook his hand, he knew he wad hooked. It takes a special person to have a the gift to see into your soul & know what ails you. She is gentle & thorough. Nancy has agreat sense of humor but don’t question her professionalism. I know all of these things because I, too, see Nancy on a regular basis. You will undoubtedly leave with a friendship for life. I am truly blessed to know her!

This is actually the second time that I’ve been here… did not write a review the first time through, even though I should have. Wasn’t sure about a day spa, but this place was terrific! Well, Natalie was, at least. She was extremely in tune with my body, and its specific aches and pains. Just with her touch, she can tell exactly what is ailing me. She’s able to let me know what my problem is before I even get the chance. And she really focuses on working out the knots. She even gives me some physical therapy exercises to do in between sessions.
Terrific service, and the monthly visits will now definitely begin. Natalie rocks!

I bought a massage for my mom the day before Mother’s Day– or so I thought. I found out yesterday that the credit card I gave to the receptionist was only to hold the appointment (something was never explained to me), and my mother had to pay for her own Mother’s Day gift. She said the experience was nice enough, but for $ 150 service and first time customer I expect someone to take the time to explain how things work– after all, that’s why I called to speak to a real person instead of using the internet based scheduling system.

Used to go to the location Uptown, but the Plano location is closer now (and parking is much easier to find!). They did an excellent job turning an older house into this quiet, organic spa. The ambiance is perfect & the rooms feel very private. The Juliana everyone raves about in these reviews is indeed terrific. Both locations seem to provide a good value for what you get, but I don’t splurge on spa services enough to claim to be an expert. It’s actually a good place for anyone new to a ‘spa’ experience, as they have a good menu & friendly staff (and you can book all your services online, which is so convenient).

This was how a massage should be! Everything was perfect! My therapist was Lauren and she did an amazing job! I left feeling like a relaxed piece of mush. I will definitely go back!!!
I will also say that even though I drove a little further from home to this location, I REALLY like the East Plano spa. I love the older home and the ambiance. I could sit there all day. It’s quiet and away from all the bustle, unlike the legacy location. To me, it was a «warmer» more relaxed feel.
I have found that services really depend on the products used and the therapists. My hot stone massage with Lauren was excellent! I really wanted to book an entire day there by the time I left. It IS pricey but I have paid just as much at some other spas in Dallas that were not nearly as good as this experience. I ask my husband for gift cards for my birthday and Christmas. :-)
My next visit will be to try a facial.

I LOVE THIS PLACE. This is probably my favorite Spa Habitat location as well because it’s tucked away in a tiny little neighborhood, which just seems so quaint. You aren’t afraid of running into a bunch of judgmental eyes as you exit the spa makeup-​less and shiny haha
Inside, you are immediately embraced by a sense of calm and peace. Everything is natural and organic and on display for you to see. After checking in, you are given a warm neck wrap and some water or tea. I’ve been going for almost 2 years now and I always love it! They also have you fill out a questionnaire so that the estheticians and massage therapists know your go-​to products and problem areas.
Unfortunately I always get suckered into buying so much product! I’m weak… but the products are great and I want to pamper my skin and actually improve my body regularly, not just every quarter or once in a blue moon. It shouldn’t be like a fad diet that you hop on and off of when a big event comes up.
In any case, I’ve loved EVERY person I’ve had. They are all so nice and helpful and great at what they do. They try to get to know you for you and not just another body. They also give you good feedback on the condition of your body in order to help you out. Sometimes they even write up a «prescription» for you on how to pamper yourself and get that continued R&R on your own — so cute! They will suggest products that can help but I don’t ever feel like they are pushing me to buy products either.
I first started getting facials from Anne (who only worked on Sundays… bummer!) I loved her and tried to book her every time. I think she works at the West Village location on weekdays though. More recently, I just had a facial done with Juliana. She was also very friendly and truthful about products that work/don’t work, etc.
The only setback is that it is PRICEY. I always leave feeling like my wallet got lighter, but in the end, I think it’s worth it. You can also ask them for the series packages. They offer all services in a «series» so you can buy it up front and get a discount. That helps out a little and also ensures that you are diligent about regularly pampering yourself. After all, getting a massage or facial once a year will do nothing. You have to maintain a fairly regular upkeep if you want to see real and lasting results.
If natural or organic products are important to you, then this is a great choice!

Ok… I’m coming back once again to review the Spa solely because of my absolute favorite person there.
JULIANA! I can’t tell you the number of people I have referred to this woman! i have been seeing her now for about a year and a half.
Full disclosure: I’m not interested in massages, I trail run a little too much i Vibrams for pedicures to be of ANY use to me… BUT I meticulously groom my lady bits. So the SOLE reason I come here is to get a brazilian.
HANDS DOWN… Juliana, I can PROMISE YOU… will be the BEST brazilian-​er? that you will EVER find. She’s quick, HIGHLY skilled, SUPER friendly… and cares about her guests!
She knows me so well that she knows that contrary to her other clients who (rightfully break into a sweat shortly after beginning their vag wax) – I get clammy and become a frozen icecube. So, she always has ready a warm neck wrap for me.
There has never been a moment where I (who is typically conservative about my body) felt uncomfortable, or awkward with her waxing me.
I have gone elsewhere for a brazilian 2 times and once almost walked out on a technician, and the other time almost cried bc the process was just so damn brutal. I go in with Juliana (and even though my VERY first time seeing her took about 35 minutes because I was hysterically laughing – my shock/​defense mechanism… and needed frequent breaks)…now, I’m in and out with her in 15 minutes! Seriously! If you’re going to get a brazilian… trust me. you want it over in 15 minutes or less!
I now have 4 friends who have either come to see her or are going to schedule their first appointment with her.
She is THE reason I go to the Spa Habitat and will continue doing so because of her.
GO VISIT HER! She knows what she is doing.

I have mixed emotions about spa habitat… Loved my herbal back therapy massage! The facial was ok. The customer device after they had my money was appalling.
I purchased a facial scrub and after using it a few times I kept breaking out. When I called to see what I should do about it, the receptionist told me that there was absolutely nothing that they could do and that I was basically out $ 58.
There is always something that can be done when you have an unhappy customer. I will not be returning.

Spa Habitat is a great getaway for a facial and/​or hot stone massage. They tend to be on the pricier side it is def worth it and they usually do specials. Billy has done the hot stones on me a few times, he is very thorough and gentle and I have almost fallen asleep because he is so good. I just wish this place was a lot closer to me now. It is nestled in the historic part of downtown Plano. Great for a spa party or just to get away and unwind.

This is the best spa I’ve every been to! I’ve gotten both the 60 minute Swedish massage (Maryann) and facials (don’t remember exactly; by that point I was in drool/​ecstasy mode), and both rock… especially if you get them both in one day! My fiancé and I have come twice for birthdays and if we could, we would come every week.
The atmosphere is very calm and relaxing with soft music and yummy aromatherapy smells (which they also use during the treatments). If you want to impress someone, give them a gift certificate here, or do what I do and make an appointment for you and them to go.

My boss again was so kind to treat my co-​workers and I to this lovely spa to celebrate the holidays.
Located in near downtown Plano in a charming old house that was updated into a warm cozy spa. Coming in, they led us to the lobby, gave each of us a warm scented neck pillow and a cup of water that I could taste the cucumber.
Then 4 masseuses came out for each and everyone one of us and led us to a room. 2 of us took turns for the hand and foot massages. For the foot massage, I soaked my feet in a huge copper kettle tub with warm water, then the masseuse doused my feet with rose petals, cucumbers, and this grainy substance they use to massage my feet, then they rubbed them with smooth stones.
For the hands, I lied down on a warm bed with an eye mask. They used the same substances that they used for my feet. However, I don’t remember when my hand massage has ended because I fell asleep halfway through it.
Also, what’s unique about it is that everything they use are all organic, no chemicals whatsoever. The staff are very customer-​service oriented and attentive, they work very hard to make everyone’s experience very enjoyable and relaxing.
When we left to check out, they gave each of us water to detox our body. We wanted to drink during our massage but they advised us that alcohol is bad for your body especially when you want to detox it and that water or tea is the way to go.
I would definitely come back for another great experience. Maybe this time I would like to try a full body massage.

I wish more people knew about this place! It’s such a diamond in the rough.
A fully organic day spa. No chemicals. The facials are with natural oils and yes… fruit extracts, oatmeals… etc. Amazing. My skin was like a baby bottom’s after.
I ended up getting a spa package aptly named «The Treehugger», which consisted of a ‘flower power facial’, ‘greenpeace therapeutic massage’ and a 30 minute ‘organic foot ritual’. Now now, don’t be turned off by the cheesy names of these treatments. As I said earlier, my facial was absurd. The massage was outstanding! (and I’m PRETTY picky when it comes to massages, I need a 450 lb man to work the knots out!). But I have to say, the BEST part of this package was the foot ritual (which was named in ‘D Beauty’ mag). They take you into this room, wrap your neck in one of those hot wraps, sit you in a comfy chair and stick your feet in this copper foot tub, with watermelon oils, flower petals and aromatherapy… THEN they massage your feet with warm basalt stones. For oh, about 20 min… now tell me that’s not fabulous??? The whole package is about 2 ½ hrs.
I also learned they have spa packages for couples, where they serve lunch and have a full treatment day. When I asked the woman (who currently had her hands on my feet) «Do you see a lot of men come through here» she responded «more than you would think»…so, go surprise your honey… go on now…
They also have ‘spa parties’ from 4 – 20 people… fyi…fabulous.
Check it out, spread the word. This place is my newest addiction!
