    Eviama Life Spa is an example of a spa that lives out the values of centered and caring treatment for your whole self. Whether I've gone for waxing, a general massage or a treadeutic session, I have always left with improved movement and vitality. If you really want your body and spirit to soar free - go try for yourself!

  6. THEY ARE DIVINE. WONDERFUL service, AMAZING staff.
    I always read reviews before visiting places--but this is the first time I'm writing one. I just have to write a review for this place. I just got back and had to rave about this place. My experience here was just perfect. wouldn't change a thing. I went in as a surprise gift from my fiance who wanted me to relax. From the moment i stepped in to the moment i left, I was treated so wonderfully. I ...

  7. Amazing Facial Experience
    This was the most relaxing facial I've ever had. I came in a bit frazzled and left feeling completely stress-free and rejuvenated. The practitioner was skilled, attentive, and calming. I highly recommend the Aroma Scentral essential oil treatment as well. What an amazing facial experience!

  8. Helpful Staff
    I recently went in with back problems and it was suggsted that I try a new massage. The tech was fabulous and the massage interesting. That was two days ago and my back has never felt better. The staff is helpful and friendly. The best spa I've been to!

  9. Lovely place--Marissa a great massage therapist
    Has a massage with Marissa -- she listened carefully to my needs and requests, creates a very comfortable space, and I left feeling refreshed and balanced.

  10. Best place for healing treatments!
    Penny Ordway, owner and healer extraordinaire, has wonderfully manifested her beautiful, earth-conscious, healing spa in the heart of Center City Philadelphia. I have received many types of treatments here: waxing, massage, facials, Maya abdominal massage, and Maya spiritual healing. All were positively transformational. I also love the beautiful, earth-friendly and gorgeous gift selection in the...

  11. Relaxing and therapeutic
    I've been to Eviama several times, both for massages and facials. It's an unpretentious, relaxing place. I especially recommend the myofascial massage.I used to schedule spa visits when we stayed at hotels, but I don't anymore. No one does it better than Eviama! It's true that they sell some things in the waiting area...but I always look forward to that part of the visit (having gotten some ni...

  12. Best message ever
    I have visited Eviama for message 3 times. I work on my feet & have a very stressfull job I carry it all in my shoulders. So I first has the message done by the feet it was great. So i returnened again andhad the Cranio Sacral massage by the time it was over I was still waiting for it to begin. Months later I was desperate and called them again. This time I got The Myofacial deep tissue messag...

  13. Life-changing
    Made an appointment based on other reviews, and was a little skeptical after a bad experience elsewhere. The moment Penny looked at me, she knew why I was there and what I needed. I had a Reiki treatment along with a massage and eyebrow waxing. I've been to a lot of spas and salons in this city, but I've never walked out visibly looking like a new person. My confidence has been soaring, my face i...

  14. relax
    Very relaxing place. They offer a lot of organic products, and help you to feel at home. It feels like you are just getting back from a vacation after you leave.

  15. Best of Everything!
    I love Eviama. The atmosphere is so relaxing and the people are so friendly and warm. The treatments are fabulous. I have been a client since they opened and have had every treatment they offer. I have never been disappointed. You have to go there if you want to be truly pampered.

  16. Cure for those dark Philly days
    Okay, "color therapy" sounds loopy and a litte weird, but it works! I have suffered for decades from seasonal affective disorder (SAD) that renders me a cranky arthritic shadow of myself by Thanksgiving. I usually "deal with it" through March. Hoping to ease some of the joint pain, I booked a custom herbal wrap. Penny also suggested the facial color mask, something I'd never heard of, and we ...

  17. excellent deep tissue massage
    I found the other reviews of Enviama pretty spot on - it's a great find in philly - but I think it's important to know in advance that the waiting area is really a little store that is used as a pass through area. Maybe because I was there around the holidays and they were busier than usual, but this is not the type of relaxing spa spot that I would usually prefer. Sure, they made me a cup of t...

  18. A Perfect Experience
    Today I had a facial for the second time at Eviama, this time with Penny. I really can't say enough good things. The products they use are just great... they feel good, smell delicious, not unbearably expensive if you decide to buy some for home use (which I did). I've had two facials there from two different practitioners and both were consistently of high quality. Penny sat and talked with ...

  19. *The* place to get waxed.
    This snob-free but professional (read: capable) environment left me feeling relaxed just by stepping inside. Knowing that their hearts & minds are in the right place (fair-trade, environmentally friendly) is a breath of fresh air. The bikini waxing i recieved was thorough and expertley executed (minimally painfull) without the usual bikini waxing awkwardness*. Worth the time and money, pay a visi...

  20. Amazing facial
    I had a facial with Carla early this week, it had been about 6 months since my last one and I was really needing some help. My skin had been breaking out and looking really dull despite my home regimen. The facial featured Dr Hauschka products, a line I had never really used before. Carla explained the products origin and the whole philosophy behind the brand ( biodynamic,organic, all natural, f...

  21. Eviama Life Spa
    This spa is perfect.- peaceful, calm, cool. the people are wonderful- no attitude! What a shock. And the treatments are really, really wonderful. I've had facials everyone in the city and Eviama's is the best. I can't wait to go back.

  22. Spa that makes you say AHhhhhhhhhh.
    This place is amazing. I had a bicycle accident the day before and was in a serious state of discomfort. I had been roaming the city looking for any place that had a last mintute appointment on a Saturday afternoon. From the moment I entered there was a distinct difference between them and the other spas I had been hurriedly shuffled out of. I was warmly greeted, booked with an appointment on t...

  23. Ohhh, my face is still thanking me...
    Alright, my friends. I have horrible, horrible skin. I mean, giant-quarter sized breakouts that stayed on my face for a month or more. Back in July, I heard about Eviama through my therapist, and so I decided to try it out. I went and got a Dr. Hauschka corrective facial with Penny, who is clearly a supreme goddess of skin knowledge. I have always been fighting my skin, but Penny gently let me kn...

  24. waxing and skin care are divine!!
    I was looking for a spa that used Dr. Hauschka products and found Eviama. So so so glad I did! I treated myself to 4 services and I would say they were all the best I ever had. The facial was so cleansing, my skin feels so great. I had a massage with Ananda who is truely spectacular!! My brazillian wax and full leg waxing were so relaxing....and I mean that! Thank you Eviama for making my d...

  25. Best Massage--Ananda!
    I did the "Live Simply, Live Long" spa package and was in total heaven! I had *THE BEST* 90 minute massage (they gladly accomodated my requested upgrade to the standard spa package). Ananda has the magic touch. I've tried several different massage therapists and she is truly the best. After my incredible massage, I had a wonderful facial from Carla who explained the process each step of the way. ...

  26. true holistic wellness!
    what a great spa, truly focused on holistically taking care of their clients. The massage was THE best I have ever had, I didn't want it to end, and I have had hundreds of massages. I would highly recommend this spa, from the minute you walk in to the minute you leave, you will NOT be dissapointed!

  27. Mixed Review.
    The facial was very good----especially with the Dr. Hauska products. I enjoyed it and the atmosphere of the spa was relaxing. However, I had also deceided to treat myself to the Neem scalp massage and I was very disappointed. The massage therapist seemed new and there was not much to it------especially at the price that was charged. I am not sure that I would try this spa again.

  29. incredible massage, exellent waxing and the Dr. H facials can not compare to any other facial out there!!
    I have had lots of massage work but nothing compares to the therapists at Eviama. Waxing is really relaxing, believe it or not. The products are the highest quality out there. If you are serious about massage, energy work, facials and waxing...this is the only place you need to go. Not to mention it is enviornmentally friendly and the fair trade boutique is a one stop place for personal gifts...

  30. User review by dxdxmxe
    This spa entirely changed my life, or at least my skin. The facial itself was so soothing and relaxing, the therapist sensitive and enlightened. I have seen become obsessed with the Dr. Hauschka product line of which Eviama uses exclusively. I once spent a huge fortune on fancy skin care products only to find that Dr. Hauschka organic products are infinitely better. My skin has never ever looked ...

  31. the best spa
    If youre looking for the ultimate in pampering and by that I mean for all of the senses I cannot recommend this spa too highly. Tucked away (which is part of its charm and attraction) one story above street-level in the heart of center city, entering Eviama is like suddenly immersing yourself in a lush garden of fragrances, softness, and healing all at once. The massage therapist Julie provide...

  32. great facials
    i just had one of my best facials at eviama. the facialist was great and gave me some good advice on skincare, i.e., that it's not just about buying the right products, but it's also about eating right. speaking of products, the facial was done entirely with dr. haushka products and i have to say i might go back to buy the stuff she used on me-- my skin has never looked better. overall, it's kind...
