Visiting Us

Before your appointment

We’re open daily from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM — seven days a week, including weekends.
Appointments are recommended to guarantee your preferred time, but walk-ins are welcome whenever we’re open. For same-day availability, calling ahead is the fastest way to check.
Please arrive about 10 minutes before your scheduled treatment. It gives you time to settle in and lets your session start — and finish — on time.
Listed prices are cash prices; please check with the front desk for other accepted payment methods.
We’re at 163 E 87th St, New York, NY 10128, between Lexington and Third Avenue on the Upper East Side. The 86th Street subway hub (4, 5, 6, and Q trains) is a short walk away, and Central Park and Museum Mile are just a few blocks west.
