My experience at Essential Therapy has been exceptional from start to finish. The warmth and professionalism of the ladies at the front desk set the tone for the entire visit. The entire team is knowledgeable and genuinely cares about their work. Ive had micro-channeling and Botox treatments, and each time, I’ve felt completely confident in their expertise. Katie, in particular, goes above and beyond. She doesn’t just focus on Botox and fillers; she is truly invested in the entire process of helping you look and feel your best. Her passion and dedication shine through in everything she does.

I had the most amazing facial with Kamryn today. Her facial techniques were soothing and relaxing, I was in and out of taking naps. After my facial my skin is glowing, and I feel so rejuvenated.

The atmosphere is lovely and very relaxing. Everyone is super nice, and they are awesome at reading the room. They always do an amazing job! Ive been many times and gotten the facial, massage, body scrub, and pedicure. I would recommend any of their services.

Hands down, the best massage I’ve ever had! I don’t think I’ve ever felt truly relaxed before! Natalie was amazing, the add on service for an extra 15 min foot massage was very worth it. Can’t wait to go back for a couples massage! Very clean, professional and top notch!**UPDATE** took my husband for a couples massage yesterday, Paige and Natalie took very good care of us. We both left feeling pain free and relaxed, slept better than I have in weeks! A++++

Their receptionist Courtney was just the sweetest, most welcoming presence from the moment I stepped inside. You can just tell she has the kindest, gentlest soul and made me feel so welcome. I was here for a prenatal massage and she was so sweet about my baby and seemed genuinely excited for me and it just gave me the nicest feeling to have her show so much interest and kindness toward me. She 100% deserves a raise- every receptionist should be more like her. Oh and yes my massage was nice as well, I didnt want to get off the table! They seem a little overpriced for their services compared to other massage rates Ive seen but oh well. COURTNEY YOURE THE BEST!

I was so relaxed, and very comfortable! Everyone was so kind and welcoming. I had an amazing facial (my 1st ever) amd a massage. Katie was very helpful in setting up the appointment for my husband. He chose my spa day as a surprise, and they did WONDERFUL keeping it secret until the day of. My skin has NEVER looked so good! I cant WAIT to go back! Highly recommend!!!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience here. We did a 90 min couples massage with the hot tub before hand and it was so relaxing in such a lovely place. My only regret is not getting our masseuses names to praise them individually. I highly recommend coming here for a nice relaxing massage that will leave you feeling drunk off relaxation.

Review №17

Great Massage and a Beautiful Place,Marielle S. was a fantastic massage therapist. I had the Deep Tissue and she was better than expected. As a person with over 200 massages I am quite critical of every place I go to. She did not disappoint. The Spa was very inviting from the receptionist up front and the whole process was relaxing. I would highly recommend Essential Therapies in Mt Dora for your next Massage. My wife and I look forward to our return visit in December.

I had a relaxing and wonderful facial with Katie! My skin was actually glowing when I left. We talked about my skin goals at the beginning of my appointment and then she recommended products for me to use at home. Katie is very knowledgeable about the ingredients in the products she uses and recommends. I have allergies and I felt at ease with her suggestions. I can’t wait to go back!

Review №19

One of the best spa experiences ever. Your visit starts with Mimosas in the hot tub if you prefer! And who doesnt? We then both had full body exfoliation to get ready for summer and a massage. The products that they use kept my skin soft over 24 hours and the seasonal scents were wonderful.

My husband got us a couples massage for Valentines Day. What a great experience! The massage therapists were amazing! I have had several massages before but I honestly believe this was the best! Quaint place and very accommodating staff! I will be a repeat customer from now on! Thanks for a great experience!

I received a gift certificate to enjoy a spa day at The Gardens. And boy did I enjoy it! This place was amazing! The staff we so friendly and each service I received was fantastic. I think I had every service they offer; a manicure, a pedicure (in the zero gravity chair no less!), jacuzzi time (while sipping on the best sangria I ever had!), a facial and a body massage. Cant wait to go back!

I had a beautiful 90 minute massage today with Keri, so nurturing and she is an excellent massage therapist! I am also a therapist & I give Essential Therapies Garden Spa a 10+I’m in town visiting for some R&R this was just what the doctor ordered! The hot tub soak beforehand was a special touch. I loved all the oils and hot towels throughout.I’ll be back, thank you for the love!

I have never been to a spa before; but had the opportunity to come in for a massage with Natalie and It was a great experience. I work on my feet all day most days and the work she did on my feet was the icing on the cake for my massage. Very much recommend her for massages

I came here today to use the gift certificate my husband bought me for Christmas. I had a warm and welcoming experience. I had never had a massage before so I was of course nervous. My massage therapist was wonderful and did an awesome job with what I needed. I would highly recommend anyone to this establishment for their spa needs!

I have been looking for a new place to get nail and waxing services. I finally found it! Essential Therapies is a great spa in the Mount Dora area. Kam gave me a fabulous pedicure and Faith shaped my eyebrows beautifully. I was so glad to find this gem that I booked my next appointments before I left. The receptionist was so sweet; my GPS had trouble finding them and she talked me to my destination. I cannot say enough nice things about them.

Thank you all

This Garden Spa is my oasis escape for self care. Since day 1, I have been greeted with professionalism & pampered like the princess that I am. ;)Seriously though, they offer luxury services & refreshments while you enjoy the hot tub. Super relaxing peaceful environment & super accommodating staff. This spa forever holds a place in my heart. I highly recommend signing up for a spa VIP package, you will not be dissatisfied..:Sarah M. Moore:.

Review №29

I loved this place and they have amazing staff. I got a Lavender and Lemonade spa package, with a 60 minute massage (Chantice was so great!) and a pedicure (Deshanna was so great as well!).The atmosphere is so relaxing, and it smells wonderful. I got no hint of a chemical smell, just essential oils. I wish I had taken them up on their hot tub in the garden, which is beautiful, but its summer and I dont like a hot tub in this heat. The whole place really has a professional and relaxing vibe, and I wholeheartedly recommend checking it out.

Was my first time there and definitely wont be my last! I have already booked my next pedicure with DeShanna! Also looking forward to scheduling a massage and pedicure in the near future. Lived in Mount Dora for 14 years now and this is definitely one of the best experiences I have had for a pedicure!

I finally found time to use the Gift Certificate my husband bought for me for Christmas. My therapist was Jeanie. I had the scrub and a massage. I was greeted cordially by the receptionist. Then I was escorted to my room by Jeanie. As I prepared for the Hot Tub, Jeanie got it ready. It was a perfect temperature and the whole area was restful. All of the staff are caring and helpful.

I had a 60 minute Swedish massage on October 2 with Chantrice and it was the best massage I have had. My therapist was wonderful. I loved that she incorporated essential oils (without it being a specific massage with essential oils), used an eye pillow, and bolsters. I felt she did little things to make the massage that much better. Thanks Chantrice and Essential Therapy for another great experience!! You never let me down.

Had a massage in November 2014 and it was a very pleasant experience. The room was quiet with only the calming music being heard. Therapist was very good & nice. I am looking forward to a facial soon. Will definitely go back here.

Kari is the best masseuse ever! Her massages are the perfect balance between relaxation and therapeutic.My teenage son also received a facial from Jeanie. Highly recommend as her attention to detail and her clients comfort level is unmatched. Her approach is a wonderful and natural alternative to harsh creams & meds for hormonal/teenage skin issues.

I was able to use a gift certificate my daughter bought for my birthday (2 Years ago) The hot tub, body message, facial, mani and pedi were so relaxing I was done for the day. The place is wonderful!!!!! All employees seem to be very happy to be there and are so sweet.

My daughter (visiting from NYC) and I did the Autumn package on Saturday -- time in the hot tub with Apple cider mimosas, then an hour long massage followed by an hour long pedicure. Very relaxing and a great afternoon. Lovely place and the staff is great.

Essential Therapies is a wonderful and special Spa.This is not a big, glitzy, pretentious spa. Rather, its a small, intimate, homey experience in a quiet garden setting.I regularly go there for deep tissue massage, facials and mani/pedi services. The service providers are top notch, skilled professionals, who provide a warm and friendly atmosphere. I enjoy every minute of every visit. When I leave I feel recharged, rejuvenated, relaxed and healed, and I cant wait to come back again.

Bravissimo!1st time experience at this location and with Professional Masseuse Sara. Very well done thorough job. When Sara was through massaging me, escorting herself out of the quiet peaceful room she asked How are you feeling now?...My response was a very satisfactory exhale sigh of utter relief & the only thing I could say was Aaaaaaaah...Definitely referring her to my Son & Daughter in luv, as well as others...Definitely worth it. So glad I found my place!Thank you ESGS

Review №49

Staff was friendly. Had a mani/pedi. Room was cluttered and not relaxing at all. The paraffin was not ready for my manicure so after my pedicure, had paraffin done. Stained towels thrown everywhere. Instruments are washed by hand in a sink which is literally 3 feet from where you are supposed to be relaxing, then another nail tech was in the room and continued to spray chemicals so she could clean up after her client. So as I sat there relaxing I got to listen to what sounded like someone doing dishes and breathe in horrible chemicals which made the nail tech gasp for air.....extremely overpriced for a mani/pedi and when the nail tech put my sandals back on my feet, my polish got smudged which I noticed as I was getting up but didnt dare ask her to fix it, I could not wait to get out of there. Manager was nice and assisted me with choosing facial treatments which I only purchased so I could use the remainder of the gift certificate that was given to me. Did not want to go back.........
