Every facial is designed to relieve the senses, rejuvenate the skin, and restore a healthy balance through corrective techniques. All facials include a skin exfoliation, extractions, face and neck massage, and scalp massage. Treatment masks and specialized facial techniques are used with personalized products and essential oils.
Dual Exfoliation Peel has clinically achieved better results than a combined microdermabrasion/30% glycolic peel treatment in both immediate smoothness and radiance. Plus it produced significantly better results in smoothness, radiance and skin tone within a week.
The Dual Exfoliation Peel uses Aveda’s latest advancement of our Perfecting Plant Peel in a non-invasive, skin-renewing treatment. This treatment combines Aveda’s naturally derived mechanical and biochemical exfoliation methods into one powerful service that transforms and rejuvenates the skin through the process of dual exfoliation. The treatment delivers immediate, visible results in improved skin texture, clarity and radiance; smoothed appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; and refined pores, revealing fresher, younger-looking skin. Experience the rejuvenating power of plants and minerals to help skin to look and feel its best.
This service takes care of your hard to reach back area.Consists of cleansing, exfoliation, masque and moisturizing.Wrap that all with a gentle back massage.

Waxing
If you aren't able to find online appointments for waxing, please call us or send us an email.
Before coming for waxing, here are some guidelines to ensure the best possible results:
Hair should be at least 3/4-inch long (at least 3 weeks growth). Do not shave, trim or use a depilatory before any service. The longer the hair, the easier it is to remove it painlessly and quickly.
Prior to your service, please do your best not to come directly from a workout! Hot water and vigorous exercise increase blood flow and make the wax areas more sensitive.
Use of retinol, Acutane will increase Skin sensitivity.
Whether you want to celebrate a special day for your loved one or want to get pampered yourself, our spa day is a perfect gift.
But don't take our word for it and check out Boston's Sway Spa's 5 star reviews on social media!

Our Story

Whether it is waxing, facial or massage, clients absolutely love our services! Take a look at their reviews on Yelp and give us a chance to pamper you! We promise you won't be disappointed because from the day we open till today, our commitment stays the same, our goal remains the same and our values remain the same.
Facial I've been to Sway Spa for a facial a few times now. I always get high quality personable service. The first time I came over I was pleasantly surprised that the facial session also included a scalp massage and a feet massage at the end. Sweta remembers what was used from session to session, my preferences and the state of my skin. That's the first place in my experience that doesn't leave my face blotchy red for a day afterwards. They use good quality Aveda cosmetics but wouldn't push you to buy anything.Read more on Yelp
Brazilian wax Great service! I got a Brazilian wax here and was not disappointed. She was very thorough and was very calming during the process. It did take a long time, but she told me she'd go slow since it was only my 2nd wax ever. She had a lot of helpful tips as well for...Read more on Yelp
Massage I went to SwaySpa soon after it opened and had one of the best massages of my life. I believe the therapists name was Jackie. The spa itself is beautiful, its very relaxing and has a nice, zen like feel. The massage was amazing and I left feeling very relaxed and completely rejuvenated. The massage itself was great, but also the customer service, with a nice and warm welcome by both reception and the therapist...Read more on Yelp
Brow wax I will say that in my 20 or so years of getting waxed, Sweta provided the most thorough and thoughtful waxing services I have ever receivedRead more from BostonMammas
Spa Day Hands down the most soul nourishing spa experience I've had to date!

And thanks for trusting us! Once again we promise not to spam your mail box and every email that we send, will have the option to un-subscribe.
You will hear from us at the most twice a month related to the following:
- Flash deals
- Last minute cancellation discount
If you have any question, please don't hesitate to contact us
Thanks for your time!
And thanks for understanding! Being in Kenmore Square we do feel that the small price change is justified but it means a lot to have friends like you who are willing to spend a few additional bucks to
continue to get high quality service. This will also allow us to continue to have all services spaced out so we can give you 100% attention every time you visit us.
You should hear from us if and when we decide to change our prices; most likely it will be from Dec 1st if we decide to increase it. Thanks again for your time.
If you have any question, please don't hesitate to reach us at contact @ swayspa.com
Thanks for your time!
We will try our best to keep the price as is, we are trying to find alternate ways to see if it is possible but please know that
being in Kenmore Square, the rent is pretty high. Also if we don't pay our employees decent salary, we will end up having high churn rate.
Fortunately so far we have been able to keep our employees happy but we want to make sure that we keep giving them increments so that they see value in staying
with Sway Spa.
You should hear from us if and when we decide to change our prices. Thanks again for your time.
