Ohm Spa

It was my first time at Ohm Spa, and I was very pleased with everything. My Facial was wonderful. I was not kept waiting at all. My esthetician (Nadia) was so professional and polite. She recommended some products for me for home use. They have a very nice facility and their prices seem competitive. Congratulations for a such great job! See you on my next appointment!

I go regularly to Ohm Spa for a variety of services. After years of searching for a massage therapist that was skilled, had a good personality and was someone that I felt comfortable with. I found someone at Ohm Spa who is exceptional; his name is Adam. Adam has many qualities that make him outstanding, not the least of which is his skill as a massage therapist and his dedication to his work. I have serious problems with my back and right hip. After a deep tissue massage with Adam, I am not only relaxed, but I also enjoy long periods of being pain free. In addition, his sensitivity to his clients' needs and his respectfulness are qualities that I value. Having a massage with Adam is the best investment of time and money that I can imagine. I give both Adam and Ohm Spa the highest recommendation.

Pros: Ambience, customer service

My husband and I are headed to New York and then Bermuda for our 10th wedding anniv. I decided to do a spa day in NY while we're there. After lots of "Citysearch research" I decided on a package deal at Ohm. I called to set up the appointment, but the day I needed wasn't going to work because of when employees came into/left work. Cathy asked for my number and said she'd see what she could work out. A few hours later, I got a call saying they had worked it out and I was all set. I couldn't believe it! What service! You just don't see it anymore! Cathy even gave me a recommendation on a dumpling place to take my husband. I've got about a month before we leave and I am so excited to meet Cathy and enjoy the Ohm experience I have heard so much about! Thanks Cathy!

Pros: service!, service!, service!

Posted 07/19/06

Let me preface by saying that I am a HUGE spa junkie. I normally spend a couple hours in a spa once or twice a month getting facials and massages (and occasionally my nails).

I spent the entire day at Ohm a couple weeks ago, and I literally was in a state of bliss for HOURS after I left! Nadia does the most wonderful facials (the Manuka Honey Plantogen facial is great)... I just had a second facial with her and have appointments for more! I have always had very sensitive skin and she knew exactly what was best for it! She was extremely sweet and carefully explained what the best solutions for my skin were. My skin has NEVER looked better! Like most facials, there was a little bit of dryness and breakouts in the couple of days immediately after, but within 5 days, my skin looked just flawless and glowing. She is truly phenomenal!

I also got the Healing Pedicure and Manicure, and though my Pedicure was perfect and STILL was perfect 2 weeks later, my manicure chipped after 2 or 3 days, which was a little disappointing... but nonetheless, awesome massages during the two and my hands and feet felt fantastic, so I can't complain.

Dara is pretty good for massages, although not the best I've ever had (but granted, I have had A LOT). Still, very relaxing experience and the hot stone massage in particular is quite nice (again, not the best, but good).

Overall, it's a reeeeeally great place to go if you're looking to get multiple treatments done, as they do a great job at almost everything (Nadia for facials!!!) and they treat you like a goddess (or god). The staff is incredibly friendly and gives amazing recommendations... GREAT spa!

Pros: BEST facials, awesome pedicure, amazing staff

Posted 07/13/06

Had my first facial ever at age 50+ . I had been reluctant because of a history of allergies and reactive skin. It was glorious! It feels and looks clean, healthy and soft. Nadia, the facialist is a doll!!! Sweet, helpful, and professional. She was both gentle and firm in her approach. I learned about my skin type and did not receive a heavy handed sales pitch about their product line. She provided a few samples and encouraged me to return. But I needed no encouragement. The combo mani-pedi was lovely too. The manicurist was gentle with my cuticles, which have been so roughly treated in the past and the massage chairs were an added plus. Ohm was quiet, relaxing and respectful of the need for a peaceful place to destress. My daughter, the original recipient of this spa time, after finishing med school exams, was equally pleased with her targeted massage and mani-pedi. For us, Ohm lived up to it's prior rave reviews.

Pros: helpfuls staff, peaceful environment, skilled practioners

Cons: location

Posted 06/25/06

I was hooked the moment I walked in. I thought I had been getting good massages before going to Ohm, but they showed me what I had been missing all these years. My therapist didn't just have a set routine that she performed for 60-minutes. She addressed my shoulder issue and I felt real improvement after the first session. On top of that, the place is gorgeous, they stay open late and best of all, all cell phones are turned off. Will definitely return.

Pros: Great massages, quiet, no cell phones

Posted 06/24/06

It doesn't get any better than the experience I had at Ohm Spa. The owners were lovely and welcoming, they remembered little details I had mentioned when I booked my massage. The best service I've had in New York, hands down. The environment is perfect, soothing and calm, very relaxing. The massage was perfect, just the right amount of pressure - a week later and I still feel relaxed! I will definitely return soon!

Pros: Service, Atmosphere, Products

Cons: None

Posted 06/08/06

I'm still floating from my massage at Ohm! I've been there 3 times, had 3 different therapists and each one was superbly gifted. Just the right amount of pressure, exactly where I needed it. You can't go wrong. Wonderful experience from start to end.

Pros: Great therapists, nice decor, very relaxing

Cons: Can be hard to get a reservation sometimes

Posted 06/06/06

Thank you Ohm Spa! I was desperate for a last minute bridal gift and couldn't go shopping in the pouring rain. You can call them up and they'll customize a gift card for you and send it to you by email. I got it in a couple of hours and my friend totally loved it! Best of all, it saved me the trip in the torrential downpour. Genius!

Posted 06/02/06

For my birthday, my boyfriend took me to Ohm without me knowing he had set up an appointment. What followed was pure heaven for 4-hours! They really know how to take care of you. The people were extremely courteous. For each service, they always asked for feedback to make sure I was comfortable, but without being intrusive. The entire time, I felt like they treated me as though I was a house guest instead of a customer. The interior is modern, very zen and very quiet - exactly what I needed. I could have stayed the entire day. Oh well, there's always our anniversary!

Pros: Peaceful & quiet, customer service, cool decor

Posted 05/31/06

I had the best massage at Ohm Spa, but the worst mani + pedi ever. It was sloppy and a huge waste of my time. I felt like I could have done a better job at home. I definitely recommend Ohm Spa for their massages and facials.

Pros: Nice staff/owners, Very nice space, Relaxing

Cons: Bad Mani + Pedi

Posted 05/31/06

I have been getting facials at ohm spa for a year and Nadia is the absolute best. She is sweet and makes you feel gorgeous during, before and after the facial. She even goes beyond the time of the facial to make the experience truly special. Get the Manuga Honey Facial with Nadia- it is to die for. She includes a massage and several relaxation techniques which even other therapists at Ohm (yes I've tried them all) don't use. The owners John and Kathy are also so sweet and accomodating. They will squeeze their clients in. Overall, a true gem in New York City. My only gripe is that I'm moving to San Francisco in a week and there's no Ohm there. My skin has never felt better even though I'm barely getting any sleep or exercise courtesy of being in grad school!!!

Pros: Accomodating, Great Service, Individualized

Cons: None

Posted 05/30/06

I decided to suprise my girlfriend and propose while she was getting a massage. I contacted Ohm in advance and they could not have been more helpful. The owners were sure everything was set up perfectly and were there the day I proposed. It was just perfect. The amazing part was after the proposal, I am still pretty sure my fiancee's favorite part of the whole day was the incredible massage she received. We will definitely be back.

Posted 05/22/06

I have gone to a few places that I saw recommended online, and some were ok, and didn't have results, some hurt, but helped - Paula at Ohm was the most pleasant, GENTLE, thorough and EFFECTIVE facialist I've ever been to. But the proof is in the fact that my skin looks better than it's looked since I was 11! It's amazing, and I will look no further for my facials.... all of the fantastic reviews for Ohm are true... and the quiet clean atmosphere only makes the experiance all that much more pleasant. Oh! And they got me in SAME DAY.

Pros: Amazing Facial, Beautiful Atmosphere, Great Staff

Cons: Slightly more pricey, but worth it!

Posted 05/21/06

I just came back from Ohm Spa and it was completely AMAZING! The level of hospitality they showed me was unlike anything Ive ever seen in NYC. The massage therapist was super strong for her size and focused on exactly where I needed it. The facial was the best one Ive had in years. Lots of extractions, but my face didnt come out all red - I was very surprised! Even the front desk staff was super! I'm going back for sure!

Pros: expert technicians, no-attitude staff, quiet

Posted 05/21/06

My mom and I were so impressed when I took her to Ohm Spa for Mother's Day! They really made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. My mom was initially shy about going to a spa, but she was in heaven after her facial! I had their Ultimate Mani-Pedi: 2 hours of buffing and scrubbing! I can't wait to go back again!

Pros: beautiful lounge, relaxing atmosphere, very friendly staff

Posted 05/16/06

I have visit Ohm Spa for a massage and facial months ago and have nothing to tell besides that I wasn't impressed. The massage was average and the facial very superficial.

Pros: location

Posted 05/14/06

My Girlriend and I went in March 2006, Paula did my facial, explained everything, made suggestions without sales pressure. The mani-pedi girls were great, smoothed my rough heels to perfection. Would definately go again! Bring an extra $50, just in case you need an upgrade.

Posted 05/01/06

My wife and I went to Ohm Spa for her birthday and we were extremely impressed with the care we received. Both being physicians, we appreciated how thorough and professional our treatments were. I have to agree with the other positive comments here. My massage therapist was very knowledgeable and had excellent technique. My wife commented that it was the best massage she's ever had - and she's had many. The facility itself is elegantly designed and very clean. I booked the appointment about 3 weeks in advance and it was definitely worth the wait.

Pros: massage, clean, relaxing

Posted 04/24/06

I finally used a gift card I had received around Christmas. If I had known it was so nice, I would have gone much sooner. Ohm is no ordinary spa. I really got the feeling that the services they perform are much more in-depth than what Ive found at other spas in NY. The thing I liked most was their emphasis on healing. Apparently it is owned by a physical therapist, so everything has a health-aspect to it, not just pampering. At the end, I felt better than I had in months. I was so impressed with Ohm that when I finished, I even decided to buy a gift card for someone else.

Pros: deep massages, no attitude, great staff

Posted 04/15/06

I first went to Ohm Spa late last year and had an unbelievable massage and mani/pedi. Since then, I've visited other spas but nothing has really matched up to that experience. I tried calling Ohm again for a last minute appointment in January. Unfortunately, they were booked so I ended up going to another spa in the neighborhood and it was terrible (it would be rude to name names). I finally had the chance to go back to Ohm Spa recently and it was every bit as nice as I had remembered. I don't normally write reviews, but I just had to give credit where credit is due. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Pros: service, professionalism, cleanliness

Cons: none

Posted 04/04/06

as a first time spa goer, i read lots of reviews on citysearch before selecting Ohm. scheduled a mani/pedi combo with a mini-facial. place is gorgeous and facial was wonderful, soothing, relaxing, maria was great! mani/pedi were very nice, watched movies the whole time in an ijoy chair, however manicure didn't even last a week! go for the other spa treatments!

Pros: ambiance, facials, empty!

Cons: manicure

Posted 03/28/06

My Fiance and I were giving a certificate from his brother for a gift. We were so pleasantly surprised with the entire experience. Very friendly staff, unbelievable massage..........I can't wait to go back!!

Posted 03/24/06

I recently booked a facial at Ohm spa with Nadia and the experience was something I had to write about. I have been to dozens of spas in New York & New Jersey and the results were always mediocre. My facial with Nadia was truly the best I have ever had. She is extremely knowledgeable, didn't push products on me at the end of my visit (samples!) and is extremely relaxing just to be around. From the moment I walked in the staff (Jonathan is the best!) couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating and it was exactly what I have been looking for. This place is truly the best in the city, take this advice from someone who has been everywhere. Can't wait for my next appointment!

Pros: knowledgeable staff, reasonably priced, super friendly

Posted 03/23/06

Great Experience.
Ive been to a few spas in NY for facials and this was the best. Very accommodating.
Gave me a real massage during the facial. Did not push products. Staff was very friendly and made me feel at home. My skin looked amazing and the prices are totally reasonable. Pleasantly surprised. I am 100% going back.

Pros: Knowledgeable Staff, Good Prices, Late Hours

Posted 03/22/06

I consider myself a massage connoiseur and after many, many disappointments in NYC, I've finally found my place after going to Ohm. What separates them from all the other spas is the whole experience from start to finish. There are so many little touches that add to the overall experience - the smell of the candles as soon as you walk in, the beautiful relaxation lounge, the hanging fish bowls on the walls, etc. My appointment was for a massage and a facial, but when I left, I felt like I had just finished a mini-vacation. I see myself spending a lot of time there!

Pros: attention to detail, personal service, reasonably priced

Posted 03/09/06

I've been to Ohm several times now and the service is consistently spectacular. There's a sense of calm and tranquility that permeates the space. As soon as I walk in, I can actually feel myself starting to relax. I've recommended them to several friends and they all came back with the same experience. I've been to other spas that seem more concerned with milking you for as much money as possible than providing the best service. At Ohm, I always feel as though they make the experience the top priority. Whatever they are doing, it really works.

Pros: excellent service, calming atmosphere, no sales pressure

Posted 02/15/06

I just relocated to NYC and I have been searching for a place to get my monthly manicures/pedicures done. Let me tell you, I have found it! The Ohm Spa is a peaceful, relaxing spot that caters to making your experience with them excellent. From the moment you walk in, it's amazingly quiet (for being on 5th Ave) and ALL cell phones are turned off (no need to worry about disruptive rings or other clients' annoying conversations). The manicurist was excellent...very professional and my nails looked fabulous! I can't wait to go back for my next appointment! Kudos to Jonathan and Kathy for opening such an outstanding spa.

Pros: Exceptionally clean, Peaceful atmosphere, Professional Staff

Cons: none

Posted 02/11/06

My boyfriend surprised me with a massage and a facial and I was completely blown away! The people there were extremely courteous and down to earth. Other spas can be so snobby. Ohm spa is a little hidden - you have to go up to the 7th floor - but once you're inside, it doesn't even feel like you are in the city. The music, the candles, the lighting - this is one very cool place. Oh, by the way....the massage and facial were awesome too!

Pros: down to earth, peaceful, quiet

Posted 02/05/06

I went to Ohm because I received a gift card and I really needed some relaxation. I came out feeling completely rejuvenated and transformed! Even though I went on a busy day, everything still seemed so peaceful and calm. I had the 60 minute deep tissue massage and by the end I was a ball of dough. Sitting in their lounge I heard another woman raving about their facials so I'll definitely be back for that.

Pros: quiet setting, deep massage, very relaxing

Posted 01/23/06

It was amazing, the TVs, the people, the snacks. All great!

Posted 01/12/06

The Ohm Spa has a soothing environment with an Asian flavor in the decor that immediately makes the customer relax. Little touches make a big difference in the overall experience...such as providing water or juice ... and looking down at a small goldfish during the massage. The best part is the massage itself. Both relaxing and effective to relieve muscle tension without being too aggressive. I cast a 9.8 rating.

Pros: prompt service, positive environment, good price/location

Posted 01/10/06

This brand new spa opened by husband and wife team is a must visit! Nadia provided the best facial in a soothing upscale environment. The pedicure chairs are out of this world and the staff go out of there way to accomodate and make sure your experience is best in class.

Pros: Relaxing environment, Great staff, Beautiful people

Posted 01/10/06

Took advantage of a gift card I received for Christmas and went to Ohm for the day. It was absolutely amazing! Deep massage, honey facial and I even caught a movie while getting a manicure and pedicure in their awesome chairs. The staff was extremely gracious and unlike other spas I've been to, they really took their time instead of just rushing through the services. For a short while, I even stopped thinking about work! The hardest part was leaving. This was the best present I received all year!

Pros: no rush service, interior design, attention to detail

Posted 12/30/05

I decided that my wife could use some relaxation, so I decided to get her a day of beauty for her birthday. She ran out of the spa and smothered me in kisses. She said that the service was phenomenal. I think I'll have to send her there once every other month. From the time we entered Kathy (front desk) was attentive. Be sure to book your appointment about two weeks in advance. They book quickly. And for a man whom has been named Mr. Clearance by my wife, I must say this was a great value.

Pros: Great customer servic, great service, great atmosphere

Posted 11/18/05

First impressions are important and I'm hooked on ohm. I had my first spa experience here and it was exceptional! Great staff: friendly, respectful, down to earth. The place is VERY clean and decorated with style. The treatment received was thorough, professional, and I felt like a queen. Thank you ohm spa: I will be returning!

Pros: price is right, comfy atmosphere, fantabulous staff

Cons: NONE

Posted 11/10/05

I was a loyal patron of Stone Spa for many years, but when they went out of business I began exploring other spas around the city. Some were better than others, but no spa has been quite as satisfying as Ohm. I went in for a full day package after the NY Marathon and by the end of the visit, I was so relaxed that I didn't even feel as though I ran it. Everything they did just worked together so well - the music, the decor, the service, and the price. They really took care of me. I highly recommend.

Pros: respect for guests, service, decor

Cons: tips in cash only

Posted 11/08/05

I went to this place after reading reviews here, for the head to toe package which included facial, massage, and mani-pedi. Overall, this is a true gem of a place. I have been to many spas, and this is my second favorite, the first being Essential Therapy. The mani-pedi was awesome, and I will go here again for mani-pedi. The facial was very good, although I was not a big fan of the products that they use. The massage was not bad, and yet not perfect. The masseur just didn't get it, and was amateurish, although I have had worse. The staff was extraordinarily friendly, in a good way.

Pros: Excellent staff, Very good service, Ambience

Posted 11/04/05

I took my mother for her birthday to Ohm Spa after reading the fabulous reviews... I am glad I did! We were running late for our appointment and the staff was accomodating nonetheless.. (I appreciated that)
The services were excellent, the ambiance is definitely chic and relaxing at the same time! I truly felt like a guest in an old friend's home... the staff was friendly and cared about making sure the experience was relaxing! Their pedicure chairs are awesome, the facial and massages were excellent!
My has not stopped talking about the experience... we will definitely be back!

Pros: Great package prices , ambiance, pedicure chairs

Posted 10/28/05

I first went to Ohm because of the great reviews and ratings on Citysearch, and I haven't been to another place since. The massages and pedi/mani's are some of the best I've ever had in this city, and Jon and Kathy are by FAR the nicest and warmest spa owners I've ever met. The place is gorgeous - very zen.. Prices and packages are a great deal. I've been here 3 out of the past 6 weekends!! ..and am going back again in a couple of days! (obsessed? maybe...)

Pros: Clean, Great people, Service & Prices

Cons: No showers, Small change room

Posted 10/27/05

I recently went to Ohm Spa and had a fantastic experience! Take it from someone who has been to several spas in New York and has had several different spa treatments (unlike the last reviewer). The owners were incredibly gracious and the service was outstanding. I will definitely return to Ohm Spa.

Posted 10/25/05

Decided to go to Ohm based on their rating and I have to say that all the strong recommendations are true. The personal attention I received was superb. Their massage was the only one I've ever had where I still felt better long after leaving the spa. I fell alseep during my facial, but I remember the esthetician being very knowledgeable and having an excellent touch. The facility itself is very calming and comfortable. I will certainly return the next chance I get.

Pros: customer service, cleanliness, location

Posted 10/21/05

I read great reviews about Ohm Spa, so I went there for the spa mani/pedi/facial package I had never had a facial or mani-pedi before. What a complete waste of money!

My facial was calming, but after I got home and looked in the mirror, I still had makeup on my forehead. This is after a 60 minute facial! I don't think that's what a facial is supposed to do...isn't one of the first steps "Cleansing"? Not at this spa.

The french mani-pedi was terrible. No attention to details...highly uneven nails, even after I asked for it to be fixed a million times, uneven white strips, sloppy! The paint peeled off as soon as it dried...this is after sitting at the nail dryers for over an hour.

Not recommended for nails or facials at all!

Posted 10/16/05

I was so refreshed after my day at Ohm! The people who work there have got to be the nicest in NYC. Over the course of my afternoon there (massage, facial, pedicure, manicure) I was truly made to feel like a guest in someone's home rather than a mere customer. After having to deal with rude and obnoxious people all week long, it was a godsend to go to Ohm and be around such nice people who actually take care of you. Thank you Ohm Spa - I'll be back soon!

Pros: great staff, very clean space, movies during pedi

Posted 10/16/05

ohm was my first experience getting a facial with GLOVES which felt horrible - the whole environment is very calming and soothing but the facial with gloves reminded me of an obgyn visit . their mani pedi room looks good but the whole point of a facial is to have the hands and fingers massage the face - i wud not recoMmed ohm for facials

Pros: ATMOSPHERE, QUIET, CLEAN

Cons: EXPENSIVE, SUPERFICIAL, BAD FACIALS

Posted 10/11/05

Ohm Spa has been meticulously designed. From the rich, velvet, noise-buffering drapes in the massage rooms to the closed captioned movies on plasma screens in the nail salon, Jon & Kathy have put some serious thought into creating an oasis in Manhattan. Although it may seem like an odd part of town for a spa, the lobby and entryway are well lit and clean, making your transition from street to hushed voices easier. Candles light your way in the changing room and bathroom. Fighting fish swirl in wall sconces in the most interesting places. No heavy aromas or odors permeate the facility, making allergy-prone and smell-sensitive noses grateful. The slippers are comfy, the robes plush and the green tea is ready. Go get some Ohm.

Pros: no-rush vibe, painless cuticle push, tailored massage

Posted 10/09/05

This is a spa for those who seek a true spa experience. The staff is extremely professional, my masseuse was incredible. I have had regular massages for 15 years by highly trained therapists, and she ranks in my top 5. I had a very painful neck spasm which she worked on with great care. I felt extremely safe in her hands. The spa is luxuriously appointed, peaceful, relaxing, clean. Attention is paid to every detail. Do not miss out on this.

Pros: Quiet, Peaceful, Well appointed

Posted 09/22/05

My fiance surprised me with a full day at Ohm and it was marvelous! Their entire setting is so conducive to relaxation. The staff made me feel like a long-lost friend and the services were really wonderful. I could tell they get a lot of satisfaction from their clients leaving happy. I was there for about 4 hours and loved every minute of it. Would definitely recommend.

Pros: relaxing environment, friendly people, great service

Posted 09/14/05

My husband surprised me with a full-day package at Ohm and it was amazing! It was the most relaxed I had been in a long time - just had a baby 3 months ago. Had their deep-tissue massage, honey facial and their ultimate mani/pedi. The atmosphere was inviting, the staff was genuinely friendly and the technicians were extremely skilled. I would definitely go back and recommend them to friends.

Pros: relaxing atmosphere, quality of treatments, friendly people
