Carol is an amazing colorist. At 66 years old, I decided 6 months ago to stop coloring my hair blonde and let nature take its course. When I saw a photo of myself at a recent event, I was very disappointed because I saw that my mousy brown hair, sprinkled with gray and white patches, aged me by at least 10 years. I rushed to make an appointment with Carol and begged her to bring back my blonde hair. She did an amazing job. I feel 20 years younger. She is the ultimate professional and works very hard to elevate your style. At the same time, when you leave her salon chair, you always feel as if you just spent an hour and a half with your BEST friend. She is authentic, funny, and awesome. read more

love my facials by Victoria! she is so informative and kind. love the robes, steam room and sauna. best salon in Brevard!

I love the atmosphere & the professional attention everyone gives when I am there & Chris is always amazing

Was told the hairstylist could help fix my partner's hair. She wanted full blonde highlights and brown roots fixed, without any bleach. Anyway, my partner's hair now has orangey gold roots and purple "icy" streaks and it was just very disappointing. Everyone IS nice there and accommodating but why suggest styling blonde hair if you don't know how :( We had such high hopes of getting the hair lighter and just the right color done before the Holidays. read more

Wonderful experience, Sara was my masseuse for a deep tissue massage. I was also able to use the steam room and sauna. There is a co-ed room as well as gendered lockers for lounging with snacks and drinks. I would recommend! read more

Excellent in all ways. Calm and relaxing. I find all massage therapist are very good. Today I had a hot stone massage with Sara D. and she is now my favorite. I appreciated comfortable B12+combo injection she also provided. read more

I received a gift card for my birthday prior to "world" shut down, after trying to find time for my message I finally made an appointment with Dennis for a deep tissue massage and was not disappointed! As a first time visitor I was delighted with the entire experience (next time I will use more of the amenities). The staff was friendly and explained everything, the locker rooms were clean (although my bathroom stall was out of TP) I enjoyed relaxation room before my 80 minute message and Dennis was polite, welcoming and very professional and his deep tissue massage was excellent and perfect! I certainly plan to return and try out some other services to add that last star! read more

Great cut and color. Carol is amazing work my thin, fine hair. The staff is helpful and efficient.

Charlotte is absolutely outstanding. So professional and knowledgeable. She is so great at educating me on my face. I only go to Charlotte she is such an asset to Essential Spa. Thank you!! Barbara Shea read more

The whole staff at Essentials makes you feel so welcome and pampered. Charlotte is amazing for facials. I have been going to her for a few years and she takes the best care of me. read more

Jennifer is amazing! I rarely get massages because it's difficult for me to find time and I usually don't love the massage like I think I should. However, I stumbled upon Jennifer and she does a fantastic job. I prefer almost a deep tissue, but not quite that intense. Jennifer applied just the right amount of pressure and knows exactly where more work is needed. She's a true expert at this job! Best massage ever - and I'm now a regular. Will have my third one with her next week. So glad I found her! read more

Sandy was amazing! I was greeted and was checked in very quickly. The atmosphere was very pleasant and relaxing. I got the shampoo and blowout and my hair came out perfectly. I didn't feel rushed at all while getting my hair done and felt listened to with my hair being done. read more

Excellent spot to have a luxurious spa day! I also had my hair done by Carol she's amazing. I highly recommend this spa for a special occasion or a weekly treat. 5 stars! read more

Essentials Medispa & Salon - Medical Spas Near Me - Melbourne, Florida

The service (massage) was good but uneven. Maybe it's just me but I think what you do on one side should be repeated on the other. As for the accommodations, seems neglected. Moldy showers, worn furnishings, even the refreshments bar in the quiet room was empty, no herbal tea, ice water dispenser empty, etc. read more

EXPECTED MORE, GOT LESSOR My encounter with this man upset me for weeks. He was aggressive, rude and arrogant. If he acts like a "nice" guy, it's as fake as his hair color. read more

Essentials offers a serene spa experience with professional staff! It's my go to and where I bring my friends and family!

I have loved all the treatments I have received at Essentials - what I don't love is arriving, checking in and then finding out the AC is broken and it's hot inside the building - everywhere. I spoke to the manager - who was somewhat sympathetic - but more so for her own suffering. I will not be scheduling again anytime soon - and certainty not in the morning because they have apparently just got out the bed and left a mess. read more

Had an amazing Peacemaker massage from Chris. It was a wonderful and relaxing experience!

I had been going for a massage for months. I had a call to inform me my massage therapist was no longer there. i don't know what happened but him leaving is a big mistake. I have been to other therapists there and Michael was the best one ever. I will not be returning nor will any of my friends that I have referred there. read more

Carol at essentials is a talented professional who clearly understands the value of customer service. Most highly recommended for men and women. Additionally, Essentials' rate structure is reasonable for a premium salonx . read more

Luxury spa with luxury prices - but without a luxury experience! I arrived for my mani/pedi. Requested pedi first and was promptly told no, it was not allowed and she "had" to do manicure first. I then spent 45 minutes twisted sideways in a pedicure chair because that is where did the manicure. I brought my own polish and specifically told technician I wanted a natural look and to use one base coat, one coat of color and a tip coat. Nope! She proceeded to use a matte base coat and two coats of polish followed by top coat. I was told this was to make color of my "neutral" color polish stand out. This was exactly what I told her I did not want! For pedicure they used a rolled up strip of paper towel to separate toes. Do not waste your money on this place. It was into worth half the price. read more

Just had another great visit here, the facility always has such a calming feel to it. The staff are pleasant and attentive. I look forward to my next visit. read more

I used to hold a membership at Essentials Medi Spa until all memberships were cancelled during the pandemic. I have visited the spa about three times since 2021 each time I leave disappointed in how the staff changes has affected the customer service. On 3/17, I called around noon to confirm closing time for Sunday. I informed the staff that I would be going in to use the sauna & steam room only. I was told they would close the facility at 5pm, to which I replied thank you and I will be there and out by 5pm. I arrived at 3:40pm and was checked in. One of the showers was out of order. I preceded to use the middle shower. The drain was so clogged that water pooled around my feet, to avoid water running out I placed a towel on the floor by the door. I finished using the facility and was getting ready to go dry my hair to leave when I saw they flicker the lights (signaling they're closing), I looked at the clock and it was 4:15. I started getting dressed and was preparing to dry my hair when Britney (janitorial assistant) informed me that they were closing at 4:30 because their AC was not working. I was rushed out, a visit meant to relax me turned into a stressful & rushed situation that would have been prevented if I had been informed of their plans to close early. Additionally, the towels were so worn they should have been replaced (prior to the pandemic this was a classy place with top notch supplies). Hotels have better towels! Very disappointed, I don't plan on going back, read more

I try a lot of spas & massage venues everywhere East coast to West coast. This is by far a top favorite!! First visit today, had the Hammam ritual, enjoyed the steam room & relaxation room too. All of it was fantastic. The environment was lovely, staff was amazing. Of special note, due to a traffic accident holding up traffic, we arrived an hour late and were blown away they were able to accommodate us and still provide all the services we had scheduled (and there were 4 of us!!). Highly recommend!! read more

Love spending the day here. Everyone is warm and welcoming. Victoria does an amazing job with facials and skincare. Chris is always my go to for a great relaxing message. Love the new look in the lounge, so serene and cozy. read more

Overall, it was a very poor experience and I would highly recommend looking elsewhere for your business. From my initial call to set up my appointment, they were rude and unhelpful. I should have cancelled then but held with my appointment. Upon arrival, they were rude and arrogant. Then my services from Michael were subpar and I'd never go back to him. You can find much better in the area, this place doesn't deserve your business. read more

Loved my scrub today - very relaxing - nice comfy robes, ice cold mimosa - the room was set up and ready to use - Sarah was gentle and made sure I was comfortable - a big thanks for a relaxing morning- see you next month- read more

My pedicures by AMBER are always amazing. After almost losing my nail/toe from an infection I received at another nail salon I have seen the light. Yes it may be more expensive but it is well worth it after all the money I spent on medical before. I LOVE AMBER!!! If you have a problem just let her know. I'm extremely ticklish and have Restless Leg Syndrome and she understands. read more

Honestly, I could not be more disappointed with my experience here. From Michael Lesser being argumentative, combative, and rude to his "my way or the highway" type approach to medicine, I really was dumbfounded at how someone with so much experience could be such a novice. I would definitely recommend looking elsewhere for any services that Essentials can provide. Will not be returning. read more

Being new to the area I thought I found my place for one stop shop, hair, massage, facial, makeup etc. I was wrong. I had appointments booked for me and my daughter on New Years Eve for hair and makeup. I had received several text/email reminding me of our appointments. When we arrived at 9am I was told we have been trying to get ahold of you. I said I did not receive any phone call or voicemail. I ask to speak to manager and she said we have no one to do your hair, Covid card was played. Manager never apologized just kept saying nothing we can do. She insulted me by asking girl behind counter, do we have her correct phone number? Yes you have the correct number I showed her my text and emails that came directly from salon confirming our appointments. Remind you, never apologized. It's NYE no one is going to have appointments to do our hair. Needless to say I canceled all my future appointments and I will never be back or my husband. read more

I was given a $100 gift certificate for my birthday. Upon checking in at the desk I let the receptionist know I had a gift certificate. I asked if they wanted to check the balance and they assured me I could take care of it at the end of my visit. Everything was absolutely incredible except with the check out and payment process. I presented my $100 gift certificate towards payment and they explained it was already redeemed and the balance remaining was zero dollars. When the desk researched the account, they realized it was an error. The gift certificate was credited to the person who purchased it. Due to a glitch in the system the purchaser had the gift certificate as a credit on their own account and was able to redeem my gift certificate toward their own treatments. Due to their system error my $100 gift certificate was not valid and showed a zero balance. I was required to submit my $100 gift certificate and pay the remaining balance but they did offer a $4 discount for their $100 error. read more

I've been here several times over the past 10 years when we are in town. Always a great experience. The oversized chairs in the lounge are so comfy and worthy of a nap. Whatever you do, don't get a massage from Chris. I don't want to share! He's the best for deep tissue and Thai massage. Pro tip? Double down. Get the Thai massage to stretch out and then a classic massage afterwards to relax. read more

Wonderful pedicure! Hot stone massage and attention to detail provided a relaxing upscale experience.

I see this spa driving by all the time so we decided to book a couples massage with some extra additions for a much needed day of relaxation . We completed paperwork, arrived early and checked in. The staff was friendly that showed us around the facilities and our massage therapists were great and so nice! I'm giving it three stars because at the end of the massage , the extra additions were not provided and when I asked about it, they said they called me. There was absolutely not one call and I spoke to the spa twice that week. the front desk girl looked at me as if "ok what do you want me to do" I just paid a few hundred dollars to plan a day with my man to finally relax and have a day for us. I prepared and called ahead to confirm. The purpose of this business is the spa services provided. I understand mistakes are made and it happens. But when I mention it, you completely disregard it and literally say I don't know what to tell you. Good to know you will not take feedback and work to try to prevent it. I'm not making an appt for hundreds of dollars to a place that can't commit to an appt. Sucks because the therapists were really good. read more

My aunt and I had a spa day, we I could not believe how well they treated us. From the time we walked in until we left, was amazing. I had a massage and facial, and was so relaxed. The prices are reasonable and I will definitely be going back, when I am in Florida again. They offer several different treatments, and add-on's. They offer alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, and snacks. They have a quite room, sauna, showers, lockers, and steam room. For anyone looking for a day of pampering, this is the place. read more

This Spa has been my absolute favorite Spa! No where like it in Brevard or Orange County. Sadly today I didn't have the experience I was hoping for. I decided to splurge on the Hammam Ritual and had high expectations of this all inclusive service. Patrick was the therapist and he was great, this is not at all about him. The process of the service left me feeling regretful for spending that amount of money (240). There is a lot involved in this service and it just felt all too rushed through each step and was not relaxing at all. Patrick was great. He had a great personality, we laughed, and the massage portion was great, but not nearly long enough. Maybe I expected more " bang". I feel like for the same price I could have gotten the 80 min massage and facial and would have enjoyed it a lot more. The only reason I am giving this visit 3 stars is because of Patrick and Lauren. Now my facial with Lauren was AMAZING!!!! I would give her service 10 stars if I could. Anyway.... Save your money- it's not what it's cracked up to be. Go for the massage over the ritual.. the scrub/mud "wrap" "shower" left a lot to be desired. read more

The derma-facial was incredible. Carrie was so caring & gentle Kelly gave me a really good manicure Definitely recommend this place read more
