False information on Gift Card and Website!! I made an appointment at "one of the locations" which they do not have anymore! When i went to L'Etoile, they were helpful & nice & very accommodating, however, i still have this gift card that i don't use now that i've tried L'Etoile! (hint for everyone, they only have the center city location!!!)

The massage was really good, although the building was cramped and not very spa-like. The employees seemed generally disorganized, and my facial really just was not good. The esthetician kept leaving the room for long amounts of time, and made me feel guilty about my blemishes, suggesting I see a dermatologist and stop eating greasy foods (for the record, my skin isn't THAT bad). Then she went on about the expensive cleansers they sell. They also had trouble ringing up my gift card at the end, but still gave me the credit for it anyway, which was nice of them. I definitely wouldn't go back for a facial, and I probably would not recommend this "spa".

Pros: Good massage, Eyebrow waxing

Cons: Disorganized, rude esthetician

I first went to the Body Klinic in July of 2007 and was very pleased with Tatiana's waxing job. She was really fast, professional, and an overall pleasure to see. I received a very mediocre manicure and pedicure at that time and would never go back there for a nail treatment. West End Nails across the street does a much better job for much cheaper. I just went back to the Body Klinic for waxing and was disappointed to learn that Tatiana had left. The new person who did my waxing did a nice job, but was pretty rude and cold. The sweet receptionist was not there, instead someone who couldn't get off the phone and seemed bothered that customers were even there. I don't think I'll go back. Very disappointing.

Pros: Great Hair Removal

Cons: Poor Service

The body Klinic was great. The location was perfect and the space was clean and quite and staff very professional. The massage and facial was one of the best ever - true extractions..... The pedicure was the first I have ever had in Philadelphia that was done in a bowl not a standard pedicure chair and tub. The bowl is much safer and cleaner. Will return...

Pros: staff - location - service

Cons: little cramped

Read their reviews and mistakenly went here-big mistake. This is a small little/cramped place in a rather rundown condition. The facial was really bad and the esthetician had no idea what she was doing-nor did she speak much english! The massage was even worse,the attitude really is awful. Never do this again.

Cons: very bad experience all around

My roommate and I purchased rejuvenation packages at The Body Klinic. We went on separate days over a three month span and we were both extremely dissatisfied. The services were less than average, the spa itself cramped (my masseuse had a difficult time moving around the table in the tiny room I was in) and the overall experience a great disappointment.

Cons: staff, skill, quality

This is a real classy place. The owner is wonderful and all of the staff members are very professional. Don't be fooled by other spas that try to compare to this.

I recently went to the body klinic for a facial and waxing. I am not a stranger to the facility in Center City. I am always greated kindly by Mira the receptionist who is the kindest person I have ever met. And Danielle does a wonderful job with my eyebrows. Well recently I was in the Manayunk neighborhood and I saw that the body klinc was on Main St. I walked in and was kindly greeted with tea by Stacy and I got an unbelievable facial by Michael who is a cutie. He also did a wonderful job on my services. I have never left this place in a bad mood, it makes me feel so good. I love this place wonderful people work there.

Pros: Employees & Services

Cons: NONE

I have a lot of problems with my skin and was a little worried that a facial may make it worse. When I came here Danielle calmed my fears and showed me how we can improve my skin. She gave me the most amazing facial. She also showed me their products and recommended to me what facial cleansers would be good for my skin. I know go every month for a facial with Danielle and my skin looks amazing. Danielle also now waxes my bikini and she does such a great job that I hardly experience any pain. This is a great place : )

I went to the Manayunk Spa location this weekend and I loved it. They greeted me very warmly with herbal tea. They have a beautiful Spa and offer great packages. I had a facial and a massage. The massage was great and so was the facial. They definately made a customer out of me for life. Thanks Sophia, I'll be back!
