It was a cold, terrible afternoon, with nothing going the right way. After an hour of a fabulous massage, and the friendly and cozy environment, I walked out feeling renewed. I had a fantastic experience and I do recommend to anybody

What a wonderful place to go to! You will forget all your troubles. The people who work there are very nice,friendly, and professional. The place itself is very clean too. The treatments are relaxing and excellent. The owner is there most of the time and shows you a lot of personal care. I have been going there for 17 years, and my skin shows it!

Thanks to New York Mag I discovered this great spa right here on 57 St. The much needed facial was great as always and of course I did not miss out on having the bodyscrub. It was nice surprise to see the renovated spa. It looks gorgeous.

I saw the article in NY mag and went for the bodyscrub and a facial too (there was a special going on, so I figured why not). The bodyscrub is really amazing. I love the way my skin felt afterwards. The facial was excellent too. I will definately go back to try the other treatments.

Cleared my pimples

I finally made time for a much needed facial. I have temperemental skin that often bursts into cysts and pimples. A friend at work raved about Dorit Baxter's facials so I decided to give them a try. I received the most professional, educational and effective facial. The skin care regimen which I hesitantly bought is really working. Thank you Dorit Baxter Spa for your integrity.

Great atmosphere and friendly staff

I planned a Girls Day at Dorit Baxter. They accommodated 6 girls for a facial and massage for a great deal. The staff was very friendly and the services are amazing. Each of us had a great experience and had no complaints (really). We all raved about how each of our massage therapist and facial person was very informative (as they should be), honest, and knew off hand where to concentrate just from the look of our posture and facial texture. We all came out relaxed and looking beautiful. To top it all off, we had coffee and tea w/ cookies in their lounge area. We definatley intend on returnng. Not only are the services great, but the products too. We all purchased the products and plan to have another girls day there. Who knows the next time we'll include a pedicure and manicure.

I have been to Dorit Baxter a few times and each time I get exactly what I come for and enjoy my massage and facial. Great place for a really quick pick me up, espcially during this lousy cold weather we are having.
