Secret Garden, St. Louis MO

Even before my booking my appointment, staff was very helpful in scheduling the right treatments and time slots for me. My friend and I both had fantastic massages from Ashland- major props, the hot stones were an extra treat for us. Also had a lovely facial from Katie, who was great with checking in throughout the process. Would totally recommend the Garden Goddess package (or any massage/facial services) to anyone.

We had such a wonderful time at secret garden spa! The staff were all kind and inviting. You come in and take off your shoes and hang up your coat and feel right at home. We booked the romantic couples massage and the room was perfect. I loved all of the flowers and plants that were in the spa. Will hopefully visit again in the future and would recommend this place to everyone.

Our experience at Secret Garden was fantastic. I highly recommend if you are looking for a quality massage and a relaxing and rejuvenating experience. My fiance and I had a couples massage together and it was the best massage I have had. Sara and Ivory made us feel so comfortable and at ease. My fiance has been very sore from intense workouts and he left our massage session feeling so much better. We loved the old fashioned feel and decor of the building. It felt very homey and we were at ease the entire time. We also added the additional hot tub soak and it was the perfect way to end the whole experience. I hope to be back if I'm ever near St Louis again!

I decided to leave a review of my experience because I rely on reviews heavily and figured I should start contributing to the world of reviews. I was very grateful this spa was able to get me in last minute. The building was a little difficult to find but found it eventually. I was promptly greeted by the staff. My masseuse was warm and welcoming. However, here are a few tips for improving the patient’s experience. I will not mention names as I believe you praise in public and critique in private. I actually much would have rather written a private review to help them improve rather than writing this publicly. Since that was not an option, here is my feedback on technique. 1. Have your hands warm before beginning the massage, ice cold hands are a shock to the system. 2. For some unknown reason my masseuse did lots of heavy sighing sounds while massaging me. I am not sure if this was suppose to aid in relaxing me. It did the opposite. 3. Lastly, squeezing the lotion on your hands first and then massaging is preferred rather than splashing it on someone’s leg like an almost empty mustard bottle. 4. When it came time to pay, I was a bit surprised at the price. $105 for a 60 min massage (prices were not on their website). For tipping on the tablet, the lowest tipping button you could select was 25% and then I saw a button for 40%. There was a another button but I think I blacked out after I saw a 40% tipping button, lol. 20% tip is pretty standard and that wasn’t an option. You had to do “custom tip” for a 20% tip. This tipping system seemed a bit greedy. Again, I debated writing this review but thought the public needed to know it was not a 5 star experience which is why I picked this spa in the first place, due to its great reviews. Overall, very friendly people just need to work on technique and paying options that are more standard.

Amazing experience! We got a couples massage and loved both our therapists! Couldn’t recommend any more highly!

My massage was so incredible and uplifting. It was like leaving this earth and finding my way back to earth. Gotta give a big shout out to my masseuse Tasha. She made my first experience one heck of pure relaxation. Thank you very much. It was truly a blessing.

I absolutely loved the ambiance of Secret Garden. Although there was no welcoming music, whether zen or ambience music, the static esthetic was still pleasing. My friend and I came on the day of my 32nd birthday. We got the Goddess Package which was a massage/facial package. Altogether, we paid a little over $500.00 including gratuity. The massage portion was great, however the Esthetician used over the counter products for a $200.00 facial. There was ZERO consultation on both ends. Neither practitioner did one, asked questions, asked about reservations or contraindications, etc. Neither asked what was bothering us, what products we use at home to make sure all is safe during a spa procedure, what we were looking for in this “Spa” experience. The Esthetician was on her phone DURING my “facial. ” I happened to notice once I opened my eyes. They used Alexa throughout the room for music, but the manager stated she was on her phone to set up music … during the service. *Alexa is not ran through a phone. *If anyone is paying $200.00 for a service, all preparations need to be made. The practitioner needs to be on time, which they weren’t, music needs to be ready, which it wasn’t, and adequate products and care need to be made.which it wasn’t. The manager gave a $25.00 discount because all of our services weren’t rendered, which we were appreciative for but for the price, I would most definitely go somewhere more sterile, accommodating, and thorough.

Had my first ever massage with Natasha and for the first time in a while, I went to bed without any back pain. It is a bit confusing to find at first as there’s no sign outside (maybe I missed it). But the lovely building, friendly people, and a cute cat made it a great experience

Me and my husband went for a couples message before our wedding and it was the best massage we had ever had. Very relaxing and the staff was amazing!

Leah was great. I haven't gotten a massage in months and she was somehow able to get all the knots out of my body in an hour. My neck and upper back are my problem spots and she took extra time and care to make sure that all the tension was released.
I think this is the first time I will be going to bed without pain in a long time! Also the space is really quirky, cute, and charming! I thoroughly enjoyed and can't wait to be back.

This place is absolutely amazing! On my first visit, I was offered water in a floral teacup with a crunchy minty seed that had come FROM THEIR GARDEN which I think sums up the vibe of this place! Very cute and relaxing. I've received a massage from Debbie that was so relaxing I felt like I was melting into the table after it was over and bah gawd the will it took to leave. I also got a massage from Leah which was the BEST massage I've ever had for my knots. I still think about that massage! I visit St Louis only occasionally but I plan to see Leah every time I do. Also all of the massage therapists here I've talked to (and I talk A LOT) have been so friendly, welcoming, and open to conversation! Great vibes, great people, and great massages:)

Wow! This place is absolutely amazing. A true hole in wall, literally and figuratively. You walk through an iron gate to a garden oasis. The decor, layout and vibe of this property is stunning. I want to convert my own home into something like this. We recieved the most relaxing massages, infused water, sangria, rose petals, all the works. Lavender gave me my massage and I will definitely be back. The best couples massage we have ever had.

Incredible place with passionate and caring staff. I work 40+ hours on my feet and my masseuse (prob spelled wrong!) Natasha undid every knot in my neck, back, legs and feet. I did an hour deep tissue and feel asleep twice it was incredible. Best massage I've ever gotten and in a real cool building. (It's called "Secret Garden" so be ready to search for it as it's kinda tucked away across the street from a brewery)

The place is clean and everyone is friendly. This place is a hidden gem!
I came to St. Louis on a business trip and 3 of us decided to get massages in our downtime. They were the best massages that we had! Jo is fantastic! We’re even going back for another round before we go to the airport.

Really pretty hidden place. Owner and staff are really friendly and professional and the massage was great.

The massage therapist were amazing. We did a couples massage and they made the experience worth every penny! It was my first time and they really helped me learn and know what I needed. Definitely will go back!

I was In St Louis for the weekend from KC and randomly called and got in - this place was epic amazing. Ask for Matt he straightened me out - best therapeutic massage I've had in ages! Thank you friends!

This was hands down the best massage I have ever had. Anne made me feel so comfortable, and took the time to focus on my needs. The facility is neat and clean. The decor and atmosphere are magical, as I imagine a secret garden would be. I have been in pain for weeks, and I walked out with just mild soreness after my amazing massage. I will definitely be back.

My husband surprised me with a massage from The Secret Garden. This place is a diamond in the rough. My massage by Darek was Phenomenal. I feel like I've wasn't money on massages previously to this one. Will definitely be back.

I checked out the website, called them. I'm considering getting a massage there. They're very nice, when I called for more information.
