I did some research and read the reviews for Kay. I decided to make an appointment which was very easy via her site. Kay has such a welcoming and beautiful spirit within her that you can't help but love her unless you're an A-hole by nature. Her space is relaxing, soothing, and comforting. I really didn't want to get up. She did an awesome job with my eyebrows. I've received facial services, and the results were beyond expectations. I love that she shows actual concern by providing aftercare instructions and she checks in via text. She truly loves her craft and giving the best to her clients.

But the 2nd and 3rd time I came here Linda wasn't there so I was seen by someone else and both times , I asked for a playboy yet I didn't get what I wanted. One waxed everything off forgetting I was getting a play boy, and the other time the girl doing my playboy didn't do it correctly. I assumed she didn't know what a triangle playboy looked like because when she was done , it didn't look like a triangle at all. And staff gets rude when you tell them how you wanted it after not going it correctly. Not coming back to this locations again. Staff needs to be trained more.

I can't say enough great things about Cryo Recovery Lounge in Newport Beach! From the moment you walk in, the staff is super sweet, friendly, and genuinely caring. One of the standout features is their transparency with pricing--such a breath of fresh air compared to other places. I've had the pleasure of working with both Savvy and Kelsey, and they went above and beyond to inform me about all their products and services, making me feel comfortable and well-informed. Cryo Recovery Lounge offers an impressive range of services including Emsculpt, Instasculpting, IV therapy, and a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. One of my favorite features is their Himalayan salt room; it feels like a mini beach escape paired with the relaxing benefits of red light and sauna therapy. The atmosphere is rejuvenating, and it's clear they've thought of every detail to enhance the client experience. I'm beyond excited to be part of their clientele and look forward to supporting this amazing business while referring friends and colleagues. They are truly a class act, and I'm so happy I found them! If you're looking for a place that combines top-notch wellness services with genuine care and professionalism, this is it. read more

Cryo Recovery Lounge has many different unique services and I am thrilled with the treatments I have tried so far. The staff is friendly and very professional when it comes to educating me on the different services. When I tried the Cryotherapy session I was pleasantly impressed with how great my body felt afterwards for the next couple days. I am in shock with the results from just one instasculpting treatment to get rid of stubborn fat ( photo below). I highly recommend checking out the Cryo Recovery Lounge and experience it yourself. read more

But interestingly I was pleased with the effect the water, private room, and gentle music playing had on me. I came out of my water pod feeling relaxed and refreshed. The reason for my 4 star review is that the hot water in the shower didn't work. A shower is a must after soaking in epsom salt for a while. So I had to struggle through a harsher temperature cold water shower after being in basically a warm bath. They do provide shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion and fresh towels. Also included in the room was ear plugs, q-tips, vaseline for any open cuts or wounds, and a circular floatation device for your neck/head to stay elevated. They offered 3 types of sound to listen to, piano medley, rain forest, and chakra. Word to the wise - don't touch your face. Should the salt water get into your eyes it burns worse than shampoo. Also, of note - I had a harder time finding the building. They're currently located below a dental office, near planet fitness, right next to a Wellness works & nutrition company, and icode.

There were 6 of us so we broke into groups of 3 and scheduled back to back. Overall, I loved the experience. We started with laying in comfy recliners while wearing compression sleeves that inflate to squeeze the life out of your hips or legs. I did 15 minutes on my hips and 15 minutes on my legs and I was so comfy that I knocked out hard for at least 5 minutes. When I was done, it was off to red light therapy area for me, then 20 minutes in the infrared sauna. The red light therapy area was warm and I'm not sure how much benefit I got, but was definitely worth 7 minutes. The sauna was not extremely hot, although it was over 150 degrees. I didn't sweat my a$$ off which is what happens when I usually go into a sauna. This was ok with me as I had just had my hair done that morning and my curls stayed relatively intact. Then it was off to the cold plunge. I was coached through being able to stay in for 20 minutes and after the initial few minutes, it really wasn't that hard. I wish this place wasn't closing! We learned that they will just be open til the end of the month. Sad, as I would have totally come back!

A Truly Exceptional Wellness Experience I was initially…read moreintroduced to the idea of a recovery lounge by my cousin, who trains intensely and uses similar services. I was a bit hesitant to try one myself, but I am so incredibly glad I found Wellevate Lounge. It has completely changed my wellness routine. The lounge offers a fantastic range of services. I've been using the compression boots for my legs and the compression for the hips, which has made a noticeable difference in my physical therapy and as I get back into working out. I also love the full panel red lights, where I can wear glasses and rest my eyes, and the private sauna space, which is perfect for stretching and reading while listening to my own music. The true highlight of my experience, however, is the owner, Nina. I was very nervous about trying the cold plunge for the first time. Nina was so kind and attentive, walking me through the process and staying by my side to work on my breathing until I reached the two-minute mark. Her commitment to her clients is amazing; she is extremely knowledgeable and genuinely wants to help you get the most out of your session. I also really appreciate the incredible cleanliness of the space. Nina sanitizes everything after each use, right down to the flooring in the red light room. This level of care and attention to detail is truly unmatched. Before coming here, I had tried compression boots at another place, but Nina's personalized guidance made this a far more effective and enjoyable experience. I never would have tried a place like this before, but thanks to Nina and the welcoming atmosphere she has created, I will be a returning customer for a long time.
