Body Essentials

This place is amazing. I've gone to a few spas, but this one is by far the most relaxing and pampering. Leana was great and she maintained a good amount of conversation and service. She was really nice and accommodating to my needs. Will be coming here again if I get her again.

I've been coming here for years and years. They have always been so nice and accommodating. I'm writing this because they have two of my favorite people here now. I'll start with Liana. She is amazing and gives the BEST Facials. My skin always looks so good and she always recommends the right product for my skin and face and I love her. She truly is amazing.

Now regarding massages. I went to another very popular, high end spa years ago and had a male massage therapist and he completely ruined it for me so I have had women therapist since and this was back around 2002-2003. I've been coming to Body Essentials and my girl therapist left and they recommended Ravi (male therapist) and I was extremely hesitant because of my prior bad experience, but they assured me he was professional and was good so I got a massage. BEST DECISION EVER! Ravi is truly a godsend.

He is so professional and gives the most amazing, relaxing yet beneficial massage. I highly recommend Liana and Ravi for your self care needs and go to Body Essentials. They are truly awesome and always have great deals and their membership is a Win Win!

The service was great all around, the owner greeted and explained the process. On the day of the facial Liana gave my teen daughter an amazing experience, my daughter said she was extremely nice and communicated each step of the process. We will definitely be coming back.

Just got my second swedish massage sesh with Rav! He has absolute magic hands! The massage was so amazing that I originally booked a 60 minute but had to switch to a 90 minute. I feel so much lighter and all the tension and knots finally feel better! 10/10!

So I booked two massages one for my girlfriend and one for myself, this was my girlfriends first ever massage and she was booked with Ravi Chavers and I was with Tanya Blea and both were amazing! After our session all my girlfriend could do is race about how she felt after and the owner was so welcoming and made the whole experience a great one! Body Essentials is a must my girlfriend is already talking about booking another session for next year. Do yourself the favor and support this small business!

My wife booked this for me, as I had shoulder pain from working from home sitting all day. She booked the deep tissue massage for an hour. Pricing is fair and things went smoothly. As soon as I got there I was greeted and offered a mimosa while I waited. Very nice receptionist. I didn't wait more than 5 minutes. Connie who massaged me was very nice, and she was EXTREMELY good at what she was doing.

She was an older short lady, I expected a light pressure massage, but man was I wrong, she had strong fingers! If you're a big guy like myself and are looking for deep hard massage, this is the place. She is great! Nice personality and good technique. I asked her to focus on upper back and she did! Shoulders, neck and middle back. Overall it was a nice relaxed setting, low light, nice candle smell and very nice staff. I will be returning for another desk tissue massage! Perfect for those working from home on a computer all day.

Finally Decided to Listen To My Body, Came across this place called in advance to see if they take walk-ins and Russell helped me right away, when entering I felt Relaxed (minus the tension i had in my neck/shoulders from sleeping wrong) the music, The greet was welcoming my questions were answered and I was seen in a timely manner. The massage itself I got the Combination massage and it was more than I imagined; my massage therapist Connie spoke to me before to get a feel and I'm the type to want the deep tissue pressure and she fulfilled it so if you need that firmness yet smooth massage she is your gal. Thank you all so much for taking me in as a walk-in, I will definitely be returning.

John and his staff are amazing! We came for a Mother's Day treat and it was well worth it!

Got my mom a combo massage appointment here and she loved it. She came back home super relaxed and happy! Couldn't have asked for anything better. Thank you!

I was thrilled to know that there is a day spa in Chino Hills that has a superb infrared sauna. Doing infrared sauna has so many health benefits ( google it) and I highly recommend this "treatment" and Body Essentials Day spa has the most wonderful sauna. Very clean facility, smells good & the staff/ owners Russel & John are most friendly. I am very very happy & I highly recommend this day spa to anyone.

I decided to treat myself on my birthday this year to everything on my self care and love list. A massage and facial were on my list and I am so happy I chose this place! I sent an inquiry through Yelp to several establishments and the owner of body essential day spa replied fairy quiet and was very accommodating to my preferred date/time. All the staff were very welcoming and made me feel comfortable from the front desk to each staff member that provided a different service. I will definitely be back.

Went in with tense shoulders, came out feeling relaxed. Thanks, Robby!(unsure about spelling) I had a great experience at Body Essentials Day Spa. The guy at the counter, Robby the massage therapist, and all their customers were great about wearing masks. I'm glad they take COVID precautions seriously. Robby did a great job with the massage and the entire 90 min. experience was fantastic from beginning to end. I'd recommend checking this place out and I look forward to returning.

We had a nice Valentine's Day here! Staff was pleasant, rooms were very clean and smelled great. Loved my massage (with Katy) and my husband also said he had an excellent massage (with Robbie I believe). $65 each for first time 60 minute massage. Will definitely be back!

AMAZING! Amazing massage and equally great service! Russell was super friendly and my massage from Ravi was next level! 10/10 recommend!

Body Essentials day spa in downtown Ojai is an oasis of serenity & my skin is thrilled spas can re-open! This pandemic has been rough - but this review is about Body Essentials day spa. I lOVE receiving skin & body services, right? Who doesn't want to be pampered? Acknowledge that and then there is the intimate nature of body work. Maybe I'm a weirdo but it matters to me the person providing the service is professional, licensed, compassionate, will honor my needs & additionally keep me safe. ( I'm a registered nurse and it matters, ya'all) The place is SPOTLESS.

Body Essentials does this and more - I feel comfortable and cared for during whatever service I book. I love the products and goodies, folks there is even a sauna. I feel like I've been through a quarantine ( hahaha) Kelli at Body Essentials! Woo Woo! Let's get beautiful.

This review is for the masseuse Romana and the owner John. Both were polite, punctual, and communicative. Romana asked consent before tucking the cloth into my underwear, which most people don't do. As a yoga teacher, I also practice this form of respect. Romana made sure to ask me if the music volume was ok and if I wanted to turn on the bed warmer.

She also offered a choice between cold and room temperature water, which was a nice touch since I don't drink cold water (it's not good for one's health). The massage was the right pressure and I liked Romana's technique. My favorite part is she was attentive to when I wanted to talk and when I wanted to be silent. Too many masseuses (and professionals in general) don't read their client's body language and ruin the experience by talking too much.

Not every client wants to have a conversation. Romana engaged when I spoke, but didn't overdo it. Perfect balance of friendly and professional. She also didn't comment on my curves, which I appreciated, since I often get unnecessary compliments that tire me out. John was polite, but not overly friendly in the way a lot of middle-aged and older men are.

You ladies know what I mean. As a young woman, it's exhausting to have to be on my guard all the time. I felt comfortable and not threatened. I felt safe, which is exactly what one needs when they're being so vulnerable (naked at an unknown place). I hope this will be the case every time, for clients of all backgrounds. I was happy that I didn't get asked any questions about my ethnicity, as that is unfortunately common at many places I go to. Clients show up to relax, not to be interrogated.

Good on them for remaining professional. One suggestion would be to have a larger massage table, one where the client can rest their arms above their head if they'd like. I'm only 5'1'' and felt a bit cramped. I'd also love a digital receipt option so I don't have to waste ink and paper, since I'm into sustainability and global warming is a very real threat.

I paid the $65 introductory rate and gave Romana a 20% tip. For those of you new to massages, the industry standard is a 20% tip. Masseuses often have to share profits with the owner, so be mindful of this, especially if the person did a good job. In addition to your session time, they have to prep and clean up. I liked the massage so much that I booked one for my partner.

I hope he will enjoy it. I hope they will continue to treat all their clients well, even after the initial first impression. If so, I will be happy to send more people their way. I hope this is a local business I can continue to support. Sending good vibes to you all. Remember to be kind to yourself.

Really needed this massage! Joyce was amazing! Customized the pressure to my liking, made me feel comfortable throughout the session. Ten out of ten really recommend. Besides being a good massage it was inexpensive, compared to other rates. This is a hidden gem!

I didn't know what to expect looking at Body Essentials Day Spa from the outside (looks strip mallish), but boy was I wrong. They say don't judge a book by its cover and Body Essentials Day Spa is no exception to that rule.

I would recommend Anna! She was amazing at knowing how to relieve the pain I had on my lower back. She has good control of her pressure. The place is very clean. I tried the infrared sauna and it was amazing. Would recommend this place.

I love Body Essentials and have been coming here for a couple years but Mayra is great! Think its the best massage Ive had! I want to give them 5 stars but as much as I love this place the owners should really consider switching out all of their air fresheners and using ones that dont disrupt hormones and give people migraines, they are toxic and they mess me up every time Im there. You can still have a serene, fresh business without using toxic products.

What an amazing spa day! I started out with a 30 minute sauna treatment (which I got for free by checking in on yelp). Then helped myself to a relaxing shower (for free) complete with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. After I was relaxed and clean I had a massage with Ana. She used nice pressure and it was so relaxing! After my massage I moved one room down for the best facial of my life with Juliana (you MUST book with her!) I needed this day.

I am so glad I tried this place today. Thankfully, I was able to get a same day appointment. I have had back/shoulder pain and a headache for over three days. I booked a 30 min neck, shoulder, back massage. I told Romana what was bothering me, and she paid special attention to that area. The amount of pressure was just right. The room was dim with spa music and the most comfortable massage table I have lied on.

She even offered to turn the table heater on if I wanted it. I felt better when I left, but came home and rested for about an hour and woke up feeling even better. Such a huge relief. I appreciate that she gave me some tips on how to deal with my shoulder pain if I feel it coming on again too. The owner was also very nice. Prices are very reasonable, and I wasn't pressured to sign up for a membership. I will be back for a full body massage in the near future.

Based on my first experience here, I'd give this place 4.5 stars. Staff is very polite and professional. I called and was lucky enough to get a same-day appointment. I decided on the Vitamin C firming facial. I can't recall the aesthetician's name, but she was very nice and explained what she was doing in each step. She did extractions, did a glycolic acid serum, and a couple of scrubs.

The upper body massage was great as well. At some point I dozed off because it was so relaxing! She put on a light spf at the end and gave me light head massage. My skin now feels very smooth! Overall, I had a pleasant experience and would consider other treatments as well. I was also able to get $10 off with the Yelp deal since it was my first time there.

My only question/concern is that my facial was about 60min or shorter (I arrived at 3:44pm and spent a couple of minutes filling out a short questionnaire before starting. I was done and out the door at 4:48pm.), but their brochure and website pricing states that the Vitamin C firming facial is 75min for $85. I'm just wondering why mine was a little shorter.

This is my 3rd prenatal massage during this pregnancy. My first 2 were at Hand and Stone (also in Chino Hills) which was great but this place I would say was better! I had Myra and she really focused on the areas that were aching me throughout my pregnancy! The bed was way more comfy and the pregnancy pillow provided was perfect! I barely had to adjust myself. Friendly staff and very relaxing and clean. Will for sure be back!

My mother took me here last week as a gift, loved the staff and the services! We'll be back.

I give this place 5+ stars! They were very helpful, easy to communicate with and extremely accommodating. The massage was excellent and the people were very friendly. And it has great atmosphere. I highly recommend this place!

I would normally give a better rating because everytime I have gone I have received excellent service. But today however I have a flare up with my rheumatoid arthritis and I made a last minute appointment for a massage. Got a confirmation for my appointment only to be told 5 mins before my massage that they overbooked and I can no longer recieve my massage.
