Client Comments (See all reviews of our therapists): "I live on the other side of town so most of my appointments are last minute. I usually don't see the same therapist twice. This being said I have never been disappointed! All of your therapists really seem educated and focused on their clients. Most places I have visited you never know what you\'re going to get, but I know when I come here I can't go wrong. It is always worth the trip." Michelle L., Glendale

"The quality and professionalism of all the therapists cannot be surpassed. This is one of the reasons I keep returning." Wendy B., Scottsdale
"The therapists who have worked on me at Hawaiian Experience Spa give the best medical massage I have ever had. These are true professionals. I highly recommend them to anyone who has a little stress in their life and needs to get the humors flowing again." Karen S., Scottsdale
All therapists at our day spas are absolutely the best of the best. They are experienced, friendly professionals with substantial backgrounds in massage therapy, aesthetics, natural healing, and related subjects. Unlike most day spa's and massage clinics, Hawaiian Experience Spa is owned and managed by an experienced medical level massage therapist, Steve Ibach. Steve personally interviews, hires, and trains all therapists.
When you visit our day spas in Scottsdale or Chandler you get more than just a massage, facial, or body treatment. Our therapists are among the best anywhere and often have training and experience in other aspects of health and holistic living. This knowledge provides a great benefit to our clients.
