GoogleWhat an amazing experience! I booked a 60-minute hot stone massage and it exceeded all expectations. My therapist, Apple, was incredible — I felt so comfortable and relaxed I didn’t want to leave. The interiors are stunning (hard to believe you’re in Chadstone) with a real luxe feel. I can’t wait to come back!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I booked the Unwind Treatment package at Holism Day Spa for my husband’s 40th and it was absolutely incredible. From the relaxing pool and spa to the 90-minute massage, everything was top class. The space is beautifully designed and spotless, the oils smell divine, and the whole experience instantly makes you switch off. The staff are warm, welcoming, and highly professional. Highly recommend – we left feeling completely relaxed and will definitely be back!
From the moment I walked into Holism spa I knew I was in for something special. The calming scent of essential oils, soft ambient music, and warm smiles at the front desk instantly made me feel relaxed. I booked a 75 min massage with hot stone add on and my therapist Woody was exceptional. He took the time to ask about any problem areas and adjusted pressure throughout to ensure I was comfortable. His technique was both intuitive and skilled, melting away the knots in my shoulders and lower back without ever feeling rushed. The treatment room was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully designed with dim lighting, heated tables, and soft linens. I particularly appreciated the little touches—a warm towel under my neck at the end and herbal tea offered after the session. Prices were reasonable for the quality, I left feeling lighter, more relaxed, and mentally recharged. If you’re looking for a true sanctuary to unwind and reset, Holism is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be returning and trying more of the experiences and treatments this spa has to offer. Highly recommend!
Beautiful day spa with exceptionally kind and professional staff. I went with three other women and the staff made up a special shared room for all of us to have our massage treatment together. The massages were some of the best we had ever had, tailored to each individual’s needs. I personally had Lang and she was amazing. Definitely recommend!
I just had the most incredible massage of my life! Woody’s skilled hands worked magic — I feel like I have a brand-new back. Highly recommend if you need to relax and recharge! 😊
