Alchemie

I recently had a massage with Kathleen, and it was hands down the best I’ve ever had. I carry a lot of stress in my neck and shoulders, and during the massage, I could actually feel the tension and tightness melt away. Her technique was perfect—just the right pressure and attention to the areas that needed it most. I walked out feeling so much better, relaxed, and rejuvenated. If you’re looking for a massage therapist who truly knows her craft, Kathleen is it. I can’t wait to book my next session!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ First of all, the place is gorgeous... GORGEOUS! From the moment I walked in, I was embraced by a warm, relaxing vibe that made me feel instantly at ease. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere is just perfect for unwinding. I was visiting Tessa, who gave me the most professional and warm welcome and she is beyond amazing. It had been so long since I had a facial, and the hydrofacial therapy exceeded all expectations. My skin has never looked better—plump, juicy, and glowing! I left feeling completely rejuvenated and already can't wait to come back and try more treatments. Thank you for making me glow! ✨ Highly recommend!

Best massage ever!! I had Katrina as my masseuse and she was the absolute best! I’ve never had a masseuse be so detailed oriented and ask me as many questions as she did. I need something a little tougher due to my aching muscles. She gave me the perfect amount of pressure and I felt so much relieve. I will definitely be back.

Rhia was amazing! I have very sensitive skin that needed some TLC and I left glowing like a little star. Highly recommend - All products are high quality and use the best ingredients :) Will be returning soon!

I LOVE this place. It is incredible. Beyond incredible. It’s so relaxing and each time I go, I come out feeling so refreshed and happy with my skin. Yesterday, I was with Rhia who is so kind, thoughtful and generous in what she does. I felt like she did everything she could to hydrate my very dry skin and I felt so cared for. Couldn’t be more grateful. I’ve also been with Brittney on several occasions and she always takes the best care of me and goes out of her way to make sure I have what I need between facials when I ask for help.

Kristina was phenomenal! She helped make me feel comfortable even when working out some serious knots was not so fun. Seriously the most enjoyable and relaxing 80 mins I’ve had in awhile! Wish I could do it every week!

I had an appointment for their sauna service but had to reschedule due to a surgery that I had, I was charged for half of the service cost. Today I came in for my appointment but since I didn’t come in Monday through Thursday they did not want to honor my original discount price. So I had to use up my credit by today or I would lose that money and I ended up buying something that I absolutely didn’t need and still ended up paying more money. I feel that they could have been a little more understanding due to issues with my surgery. I was asking to reschedule my appointment to Monday but I was told to use my credit today or I would lose my money. Definitely a place that is only interested in taking your money and can careless about your situation.

I got a massage and facial and they did not disappoint. For my massage I requested deep tissue level massage and cupping which really helped with my tense muscles. The immortal facial was a really great experience as well. Friendly staff and serene ambiance.

I've had a massage here and two facials. Both have been excellent! Very relaxing and enjoyable. I recommend

I had the best facial of my life! I tried the superfood facial and it felt so luxurious. Highly recommend this place.

I got the custom superfood facial by Vanessa, who was amazing! She is so knowledgeable, warm, & soothing. This was honestly one of the most relaxing facials I've ever received. My skin is GLOWING! And I'm so excited to try the pomegranate vitamin C serum! Will definitely come back.

I've been going to this place for a couple years and absolutely adore it. Finally decided to write a review after my most recent experience -- I booked the Purify Hydra-facial with MARIA. It was hands down the best facial I've ever received. Very relaxing, thorough, great head/shoulder massage, and my skin is glowing. Try this place if you haven't!

I have been going here for more than a couple months now and I am in love with Nicole D's work! She is amazing! She addresses all my facial concerns and I always leave her feeling so happy with my skin. She has honestly helped my skin so much and has given me so many tips for my facial care. She is so educated on skin care. My skin feels like it glows now! I'm so grateful for Nicole and can't wait to always come back to receive facials with her!

I paid. But I will never go back. I scheduled a 1 hour facial. The facial itself felt super rushed. Exfoliating my eyelids? Hm, never had that before during a facial. The esthetician ended the facial after 40 minutes. I didn't even get moisturizer? They still charged me full price, no explanation. What the absolute f***. The place wasn't as clean as I expected and the service was just really bad. I had booked this service as a pick me up, and just was not in the mood to argue. I feel like they should have noticed that I was checking out at 12:25 following a 1hour service that started at 11:45, but I guess they didn't really care. So I paid, and even tipped, but left super annoyed. They sent a follow up survey and I provided them feedback, but I absolutely will never go back. First and last time!

I really love their superfood facials and Vanessa is outstanding... I love to use the infrared sauna before service as well

Upon entry into the spa, it' smelled of organic sugar and spice and all things nice. The receptionist was very polite and accommodating,; the reception area was more than quaint. It was inviting and relaxing; you knew no matter what you were going to enjoy your relaxation day. My therapist, Anastasia, was perfect for me. her hands were rm and firm; the pressure was great, and the hot stones were the perfect heat and size. In addition to all of this goodness and sweetness, they validate parking! I highly recommend this spa and of course, Anastasia, keeping in mind, my first visit and she has been my only massage therapist!. I would add, for the cost of the session. It seems that access to their day spa (steam room,and or Jacuzzi, etc.) should've been included. Thank you

Fantastic massage by Kitty. One of the best massages I have ever received. Arrived super anxious and uptight and left there feeling totally relaxed. Will def go back and book with her again.

Wanted to love this place as my husband booked me a massage for my birthday as a special treat. It ended up being one of the worst spa experiences I've ever had. I arrived 15 minutes prior to my appointment and ended up not having a massage therapist take me back until 15 minutes after the appointment time started. Throughout the massage people were talking loudly in the adjacent room and playing music that conflicted with the generic calming soundtrack being played in my room. I also had to remind my therapist to increase pressure several times, and the problem areas discussed at the beginning of the service were largely ignored. I ended up being shorted 10 minutes for the time that I payed but I honestly couldn't wait to leave. My neck feels 10x worse than when I walked in. Will not be going back.

I booked through Classpass and am so happy that I did. I started out with an Infrared Sauna Session and they set the time so you have 10 minutes to shower in the 45 minute session. It was so nice and relaxing, you can hear the "typical spa" music from the hallway which made for a great ambiance overall. I then had a 60 min Massage with Hot Stones with Kitty and I cannot recommend this enough. Kitty was amazing and the hot stones was the best add on, I'm not sure I can go back to a regular massage now. Would absolutely come back to Alchemie Spa.

Very poor customer service. Take your business elsewhere. Nicole is a great esthetician but the business practices are poor and nonethical. I do not recommend this spa.

Wonderful facial with great product recommendations! Parking was a little tricky but ended up finding parking in the lot across the street.

Big fan of Alchemie, especially Nicole D who gives a great facial and is generous with her time and recommendations. She was also super understanding when I had a scheduling goof, and went out of her way to help me reschedule. Strong recommend!

Beautiful location, design, and staff! Loved my massage with Mariya! Will be back next month! Loved it.

Just had the superfood facial with Gloria and it was the best facial I've ever had!!!

Kitty is NOT amazing. I indicated I wanted a strong pressure massage when I scheduled an appointment. It didn't appear that was communicated beforehand to Kitty so when I expressed my desire for deep tissue, she reassured me she would take care of it. When I commented it was still too soft of a touch, Kitty proceeded to dig her elbow with brute force, and without rhyme or reason, along my spine and low back right above my hip bone. This bone on bone maneuver was anything but pleasant, it felt like I was being sliced with the mouth of a glass bottle. If anyone knows deep tissue, you understand it can be intense as an experienced massage therapist applies targeted pressure to release tension in the underlying tissues. It should hurt so good, but her touch went from soft to spiteful. I didn't want to believe that Kitty would be upset that I was voicing my needs and when I asked if she was, she terminated the session. Instead of being upfront and honest about her capabilities, she decided to first take revenge. We seek massage services for relaxation and relief, not to create tension and be terrorized as we lay naked and vulnerable. I let Ava at the front desk know about my experience with Kitty. She listened and offered a complimentary massage. I will not be returning. This kind of abuse should not, and cannot, be tolerated. And I wouldn't trust a spa that subjects our bodies to malicious behavior and toxic individuals.

This is my first time here and I had Vanessa who is wonderful! This is the best massage I have ever experienced! I will be coming back! Highly recommend booking with Vanessa!

Loved my experience here. I got a facial and a massage. Parking is validated (4 hours) across the street at the apt complex. I got a massage from Skylar, which was awesome and super relaxing! Pressure was perfect and feeling so much better now. Then, got a facial from Nicole, which was amazing. One of the best facials. We did extractions and light therapy. Love their organic products and a big fan of the entire experience! Book Skylar and Nicole; you will enjoy every min :) Cheers!

This was probably the best facial I ever had! I had the Custom Superfood Facial. My first time here. Was so relaxing and great for my sensitive skin. The technician explained everything really well too as she was going.

Chloe is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend her for any facial, but I specifically go to her for the 60 minute HydraFacial and my skin is always glowing after. She is extremely meticulous and thorough which I appreciate, and always knows exactly what my skin needs during the treatment. She is also super warm and welcoming. Thank you Chloe :)

My favorite spa! I've been visiting since 2016 and this place is the best. If you ever have a chance make sure to book here. Normally I go see kitty for a massage and she is amazing! She's able to identify areas that could use additional attention and makes sure to do her best to loosen up those muscles. Thank you Alchemie Spa!

Amazing hydrafacial by Rhia. She listened to my concerns and gives a killer face and arm massage. She also walked me through the steps of my first hydrafacial. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will be back.

I've been meaning to post a review for ages. I got the micro current facial here for around $300. They used a nuface which is an at home tool that costs around $300 itself to own AND used something very similar to a Clarisonic that was very abrasive. I've gotten many high end facials at around this price point when living in nyc and they've always used professional level microcurrent machines. It didn't feel at all high end which is disappointing as I live close and was looking forward to being a regular customer.

I really enjoyed my massage by Kitty! Best massage I've ever received. I will be returning!

I am obsessed with Alchemie. The interior is so beautiful and relaxing. I love that they use all natural products as i am a huge body deli fan and only use clean products. I am on the edge of my seat waiting for my monthly appointment for a signature facial and brow waxing with Nicole. I truly wanted to gate keep her but everyone deserves to experience her artistry. The staff overall is wonderful :)

Wonderful ,clean salon. Great massages and facials. They are very kind and respectful to their clients. I am so glad I found this salon.

I wish I could give a negative star review! I got an hour hydra facial at this spa last Tuesday (July 2nd). After receiving facial treatment from this spa and having what I thought was a relaxing day (going home and doing absolutely nothing!), I woke up in the middle of the night-3am with my eyeball swollen shut! I had to go to the hospital 3 different times because I got a facial from this place, I am now on two different types of antibiotics, one oral and the other are eyedrops. I have been diagnosed with preseptal cellulitis and a corneal abrasion both to my left eye. I still have to go back to the Steinway eye institute on Monday to make sure that the antibiotics are working properly. I just want to say that this has not been my first time coming to this spa. I have received facials here before. But, this is the first time anything like this has happened to me!!! I am posting this on here as a warning to anyone else.... You do not want to go through what I just went through/am still going through!!!

I'm visiting LA from NYC and had a facial from Chloe. She is making me think I need to relocate so I can see her every month!! Best facial I've ever received. So much care and attention, she is a pro! My skin is glowing, I would give her 10 stars if I could! Thank you, Chloe!!

Excellent service in an unpretentious spa in Santa Monica. Had an amazing facial and would highly recommend.

LOVE! I came here with my boyfriend for our anniversary and got a wonderful couples massage. When we arrived, we were offered hot tea and other drinks to get us comfy. They also asked us if we preferred a male or female therapist and if there were any other things they should be aware of before beginning. We were then escorted to the couples room which was very clean, relaxing, and pleasant. We got a one hour full body massage and I enjoyed every minute of it. The parking lot is across the street and they validate for you, I think up to 3 or 4 hours. Pro tip: Check in on Yelp once you're there for 10% off :)

Kitty is amazing!!! this was honestly the best massage ive ever had! Will Definitely be back

this place is amazing. the atmosphere is so calming and whatever essential oils they use make the skin so incredibly soft. My masseuse, Vanessa, was INCREDIBLE. Literal godsend of a massage, will come back!

I highly recommend the Superfood Facial. Gloria was my aesthetician and did an amazing job; she took my skin type & concerns into consideration, and explained the entire process step by step. The facial involves extractions, and she was able to do them without damaging my skin (which I've had happen at other places). My face has never been so smooth! Highly recommend.

This place was great for a quick and relaxing massage! Came here with coworkers and had a great time. I got a 90 minute deep tissue, which was both amazing and incredibly painful (in a good way). This is a quality, clean place. All products are organic which is great too! The only downside, in my opinion, is that there are no locker rooms or showers. I personally hate squeezing back into my jeans or socks after being lathered in oil, and it would be nice to have a place to rinse off before I go on my merry way. I brought a change of loose comfy clothes for after, which made it better, and I highly recommend doing that! Parking was easy and right across the street. It's an underground structure that takes validation from the spa.

Michelle no longer works there and she was by far the best esthetician I have ever had. Brittany seems to still be learning but hopefully will get better with more reps. In the meantime, I plan to explore other spas in the area as Alchemie was worth the premium cost only while providing premium service.

Amy did a great job ! Very Knowledgeable. The place was very cold inside. Over all very nice relaxing massage

I had a wonderful experience at Alchemie starting with the infrared sauna followed by one of the best overall massages I've ever had from Amy Okada. She was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I added on a scalp treatment and was so relaxed and appreciative of her explanation about the benefits and process of it. She has just the right amount of pressure to attend to some problematic areas while making me feel so comfortable. I cannot wait to return for another session!

The spa was able to accommodate us. The massage therapist was really good. She was able to release a lot of my tension. The facility was very cleaned. Wish they had a quiet room and other amenities.

I recently made an appointment for a Clarifying Facial and waxing. Mariya was my aesthetician and did such a phenomenal job explaining the benefits of the services I was receiving and making the right recommendations for my skin. After not having services for some time due to Covid, it was really wonderful to feel safe throughout my appointment and deeply cared for. Thank you, Mariya for your attentiveness and excellent care. I will be back!

Love this place! Can easily say that Nicole gives the best facials, specifically love the hydrafacial with her. Definitely worth the price - your skin will be glowing after.

Just yes, yes, yes to everything that happens here! The staff is super friendly, amazingly skilled, in tune with your body and your personal needs and you just leave feeling 100% refreshed and revitalized. I've had a few different types of massages here, as well as my brows done once when i was in a pinch for time, and an added on foot scrub, and I left each time feeling absolutely amazing. The pricing is also extremely competitive compared with a Burke Williams type deal and the service is still exceptional. As a Burke Williams convert, I was a little skeptical that there's no access to a whirlpool or sauna but honestly I realized that I don't even need that which such great masseuses. Also, don't leave without trying the tea :) It's delicious.

I got a deep tissue massage today with Kitty and it was truly amazing. I feel like a huge weight of tension has been lifted off my body. I want a weekly session! If you've been thinking about getting a massage, I highly recommend booking with Kitty! You will thank yourself! So relaxed.

Nichole was friendly, personable, knowledgeable and a JOY to work with. Her expert hydrofacial combined with her sweet soul energy was quite a treat.

I've been to MANY spas in Los Angeles, if you're looking for a tranquil, relaxing experience with top level service, Alchemie takes the cake. I've been here several times for the stary eyed trio (eye brow wax, tint and lash tint) and loved it. After going for facials all over LA and not really finding something I vibe with, I booked a massage and facial here to give it a try. Today I went for a 60 minute massage with Nemanja. I'm not sure what part was my favorite, the legs or the shoulders, but he did an amazing job at getting into all the areas I knew needed attention with enough force yet enough gentleness to make me feel so relaxed and comfortable. It was the first time I've ever had a massage and felt like both sides / all areas got an equal amount of attention. After my massage, I put on my robe and then went for my facial with Cerina. I've seen her before for my brows, but she outdid herself today. When applying products, she moved her fingers to the rhythm of the spa music and it put me to sleep literally 3 times. During my extractions I actually felt her doing the work. Usual during extractions it's like a 3 minute pimple popping fiasco that leaves me red and swollen, this time I looked totally normal. All in all, Alchemie Spa gets a 5 star from me. Love the space, love the service. Wish I could move in and for sure will be back!

THE LOVELIEST SPA I strive to live an organic healthy lifestyle. This included finding a spa using quality ingredients with quality services. Fortunately, I found Alchemie. Living in the SFV, This is not too far, nor too close, but it is worth the drive. My partner and I went here for the couples massage to celebrate our anniversary. The store front is gorgeous. Parking was easy with four hour validation across the street. The interior displays a mid-century modern style adorned with products you can't find at commercial retail establishments. These products have fine quality ingredients without the use of harsh chemicals & preservatives. If I could, I would buy everything. The energy is positive and calm, as a spa should be. My partner & I were offered tea/water while filling out a health/preference questionnaire. We looked forward to our deep tissue massage. The restrooms are organized & clean. They featured a rose hydrosol spray to use, which I did. The small, folded terry cloth towels were in place of paper towels. I love this because waste production is reduced and the towels can simply be washed. We were led by Fumiko & Anna to our lovely dimmed room with two massage tables and a large bath tub. I chose to book with them because of the many positive reviews on Yelp. The music added calmness. They even offer complimentary aroma therapy during treatment. Fumiko gave attention to my problem areas. If you are looking for a great Shiatsu massage, Fumiko & Anna are the perfect pair. My first experience was lovely despite the dissatisfaction I felt after my massage. That was ONLY due to the fact of my miscommunication. It is ESSENTIAL to communicate with your masseuse to get the service you want. It's more beneficial to communicate to those booking your appointment, for they know which masseuse is better for your specific needs. My partner & I were looking more for a deep tissue massage. Communicating with Meredith after my visit, she set us up with a second visit with Jamie & Ashley, their most requested for deeper pressure. My massage would be comp'd & my partner at 20% off. About two weeks after the first appointment, we went to our second appointment. I really wanted to try them again in hopes of getting the massage we really wanted. Fast forward to that Sunday. We were greeted by Meredith, which was a delight to finally formally meet her. Jamie & Ashley were really communicative with us and made sure to know our preferences. I made my neck and shoulder problems known. With all the busy and stress from life, my treatment from Ashley was what I needed. I melted like vegan butter under her massage. It was the perfect pressure (I like a lot). My neck and shoulder have never felt better. My partner is a big guy (6'3") and he felt feat with the pressure, as well. He appreciated Jamie's attentiveness. We left tuned and satisfied. This spa qualified for my obsessive need for quality. From the retail aspect to service, 100%. The price is affordable for what you receive. I will be back for more!

The best! Amazing service and very kind people working here! Loved the work done on my nails and she was super attentive to detail and gentle (as I'm known to bleed easily). Love love love! My new spot!

Did a sauna session on a Friday night for 45mins. Clean, relaxing, & professional staff. Will be back for another session along with doing a facial and massage.

Loni! Gustavo! I've never had less than An amazing experience here. It's my favorite go to for massage. The energy of the space is grounding and peaceful, as are all of the folks that work there. The live food skin products are incredible and the essential oils are divine. Highly recommend Alchemie.
