Spas and salons in Newcastle
Jesmond holds most of the resident independent therapists, in flats and clinics around Osborne Road, and is where continuity with the same practitioner is easiest to find. The Quayside and the city centre cover the hotel trade and the business visitors, largely by mobile appointment, with weekend availability tighter than midweek because of the city's popularity for celebrations. Gosforth is quieter, residential and books further ahead than anywhere else in the city, with reflexology and holistic therapists well represented.
Booking through a venue means fixed opening hours, a reception, changing facilities and often a choice of therapist, which suits people who prefer a business to an individual or who want to book at short notice. Venue listings show the treatment menu, opening hours where supplied, and the rate card. Many offer packages that combine massage with facials, body scrubs or use of a sauna or pool, and some run couples rooms with two therapists working side by side.
Frequently asked questions
Can I choose which therapist treats me at a spa?
Usually yes, if you ask when booking and the person is available. Venues with several therapists will often ask about your preference for pressure and gender at the time of booking.
Do spas charge more than independent therapists?
Often, because the rate covers the premises, facilities and reception. In return you get fixed hours, more choice of appointment times and extras such as a sauna or steam room. Compare rates on the treatment pages for your city.
Do spas offer mobile or outcall massage?
A few do, particularly for hotels and corporate events, but most are incall only. If you need a therapist to come to you, the independent therapist categories are the better place to look.
