What People Are Saying About Etant

The Scene
The level of serenity inside Etant (French for "being") contrasts with the steady commotion outside on Tremont Street. Focusing on consonance of mind and body, the spa operates opposite of Newbury Street's chichi spas, drawing customers more concerned with wellness than pampering. That's not to say that pampering isn't on the agenda--relaxing is effortless in the softly lit treatment rooms. Expertly trained staffers exude warmth and are the friendliest in town.
The Services
Body treatments like mud therapy and salt scrubs renew the skin, while a soybean facial is packed with vitamins to renew and refresh. Reflexology, ear candling and acupuncture are popular treatments, but for a unique experience, opt for the personal energetic alignment: This combination of light touch, Reiki and polarity therapy aligns the body's energy systems, promoting balance and inner peace. Indulge in a glorious, hour-long duet massage (four hands are better than two), or share the experience with someone special.

My second massage E-V-E-R and the best ever! I booked double appointments for me and my best friend who came up from Florida, they were ready when we arrived, the atmosphere is calming and the bodywork was amzing. Randy was perfect in her demeanor and the magical use of her hands reigned supreme. My friend had Jason and he did something to her ears that she has been unable to stop talking about since. She has had many massages before and she admits that it was the best she has ever had. It was worth the 135 for an hour and a half ( a half hour of foot reflexology!!) AND I booked another for next month !!! Thank you Randy!!

The first time I went to Etant I enjoyed the best facial ever. My 2nd experience not so great...I live about 45 minutes away and drove myself the 2nd time... I called and let the receptionist know that I had trouble finding my way back... she seemed to be very nice and understanding. She called me back and told me that they were going to forfeit my spot and also still charge me. I asked to speak to the owner he was very rude and dismissive. Not the best experience, but the clinicians are the best! I lost out on almost 100 dollars... they could have handled this better. If they did not have my certificate already they would not have been able to take my money.

I recently moved to the area and needed to find a new waxer. I found Allison when i googled Best of Boston so I decided to give her a try. Allison gave me a brazilian wax and a brow wax. My brows have never looked better! She had me grow them out to be more even and now that they are I get so many compliments. The brazilian wax was so quick and virtually painless. She made me feel comfortable as well. Anyone who is looking for a great esthetician should definately go see Allison at Etant!!
