Wellness On Whyte

I really can’t say enough good things about Wellness on Whyte. I have been here for many treatments, including spa services, flower essences, and nutrition coaching. All of the staff I have encountered have been lovely and so genuinely interested in helping their clients. It is such a beautiful and relaxing space.

This is not just a review for this business, but for one of their practitioners who has gone above and beyond in the helping out my spouse and I.
First, if you are looking for a relaxing, therapeutic mix of massage and/​or acupuncture, Wellness on Whyte can’t be beat. Always clean and with one of the friendliest staffs, they’ve created a warm, welcoming environment. They make it easy to book you in an appointment and if they are busy, they will try to work with your schedule to make something work.
The real reason for this review is to sing the praises of Sabrina Silins. Originally, my wife found this location and made an appointment not knowing what to expect. Luckily, she was initially paired with Sabrina. Sabrina’s caring nature established a great relationship with my wife, but her concern and friendship has gone beyond what one would expect. Her skill and ability with acupuncture is top notch, but it is that attention to my wife’s concerns and her willingness to help with our stressful situation that has made our experience with Wellness on Whyte so pleasurable. One goes for this kind of treatment seeking a physical remedy, but Sabrina’s manner and empathetic nature has added so much more. I know in my heart that working with Sabrina has helped my wife in ways beyond what she was hoping for when we first started going to Wellness. As we continue on our journey, it is comforting to know that friendly, caring people like Sabrina will be there to offer assistance — and not just their professional expertise, but their friendship as well.
I can’t recommend Wellness on Whyte enough — the staff works hard to provide a welcoming environment, and our experience with Sabrina has been unbelievable and so very helpful.

This is a perfect wellness service. Excellent massage. The sauna is a great treat after a massage. The fruited water is a lovely welcome as you wait. They have a down to earth approach — good quality but not a super high end spa service. It is where I go for regular care. They even treat my child.

I’m a first time customer but will likely be a repeat one now. Location is good, parking is not a big issue in this area of whyte ave. This company is up with the times & you can fill out the intake form online before your appointment to speed things up. Excellent communication with rescheduling & they send email confirmation as well as email receipts.
Jennifer was the best masseuse I’ve ever had. She knew more about my past history with muscle problems just through working on my muscle tensions. Excellent pressure & technique unlike other places I’ve been to. She was able to clearly explain things to me in detail such as the fascia Cupping method & warning about bruising, etc. Really knowledgable & friendly (which doesn’t surprise me since all their staffs’ credentials & certificates are displayed in the waiting area). Appreciate her gauging my pain tolerance & how she asked permission for procedures or using potent oils.
By the way, the oils they use smell lovely. It’s a warm & cozy atmosphere & definitely a relaxing experience. If you want a taste of what they have to offer; they are holding an open house on Nov. 26,2015 from 4−8pm!

Big fan! This is where I go for sugaring and if this is your kind of thing I highly recommend Leslie. She makes you feel super comfortable and there are no awkward moments which for those of us having hair removed just about anywhere from someone you barely know it can be pretty important. She’s super pleasant and if you have time to book a massage after she’s great at that too. I’ve also had a facial by Katarzyna and I was quite pleased with the treatment.

Roberta helped me immensely through a stressful time with a Herbal Essences treatment. Being a Whyte Avenue-​ite, their location couldn’t be more convenient.

Walked in, treated less than professionally, walked out.
I will never go back.
I don’t give second chances to businesses, one chance only. You are in the service industry and it’s up to you to impress me to return, well you guys failed in a most impressive way.

Today was my first time at Wellness on Whyte. It was terrific.
Firstly just to let you know I parked in the underground parkade and the prices are very reasonable.
The spa is located on the 3^rd floor of a very large building. I entered the very serene and calming atmosphere of this spa and was welcomed by a receptionist. I had to fill out a bit of information about myself and was offer some lovely flavored water. Then was asked to sit and wait for my appointment.
My appointment was for a sugaring and it was was to be my very first in my life. I was terribly nervous. I booked it with Leslie Senger. Leslie greeted me and took me into the room where the procedure was to happen. She asked me a few questions and made me feel very comfortable about the entire procedure. I was in for my legs, bikini and underarms but instead of the underarms I decided on the lip and chin. Leslie left the room, had me get ready and wait for her to return. She did a superb job I believe. She is very meticulous and treated me with the utmost of respect. Very well trained and even made suggestions for me for the future. When she was finished I changed and payed at the receptionist. They all treat you very well here. Definitely felt pampered even whilst getting all the hairs sugared off of me. I’m sure I will go back here again.
I highly recommend this spa as well as Leslie for sugaring. Also for the first timer getting sugaring done, it was barely painful and skin didn’t redden up at all unlike waxing does. Enjoy!

I started seeing Sabrina Sillins and I can’t say enough great things about her :) She is the most warm and calm person I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.
I started seeing her after I tried the conventional (Western) way of trying to conceive with many frustrations, many different medications, many doctors, and one failed pregnancy. With no more success after going on the fertility medications again then feeling overweight, depressed and in pain! With many side effects, I didn’t realize until later I decided to stop all medications.
I started researching natural ways of using herbs and other methods to get pregnant, I did get pregnant once on vitamins and tea I researched and tried, however, it was short lived.
I then decided to add acupuncture the equation, I searched for fertility acupuncturist and Sabrina’s name came up. I have been seeing her since Summer 2014, I can say my lower back pain has greatly decreased. I did have had another pregnancy that lasted a bit longer, I know my cycles are much more regular and less painful. I feel more empowered about my health and fertility and have learned a lot. I feel much healthier, and every time I leave I feel phenomenal!
I have also seen Lorraine as well, she is great too :) I will be seeing both as their availability is limited.
The atmosphere is so calming as soon as you walk in, which I enjoy as I am one of those people who is a tad loud and a bit chatty! So it is nice to just relax and feel serene!

The minute you walk in here you will feel the serenity. We are always greeted by the warm and beautiful smiles of the ladies at the front counter.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Sabrina Sillins here and she is wonderful. I cannot begin how grateful I am to have found her. Her eastern treatment techniques and her vast knowledge in traditional medicine is another 5 start review for next time! :)
The rooms have the proper ambience… the mood and lighting and even the scent adds up to having a lighter heart.
I also enjoy their flavoured water :) and it’s a bonus there is an organic market just in the main floor of the building!

Wellness on Whyte is another spoil of living in Old Strathcona and the fantastic Roots on Whyte building.
The entire place is calming, from the front desk to the massage and therapy rooms and including the staff. Complimentary infused waters are also a nice way to start and end a visit. You can also book online, thanks to a very detailed and user-​friendly website (and now an app too).
Oh, and the Thai massage offered here is the best massage I have ever had.

Amazing. The best brazilian I have ever gotten! They use all natural, all organic sugaring (which also is less painful) and leaves skin soft and smooth. Go see Katarzyna Gwozdz for any type of sugaring; she is so thorough, meticulous, and takes her time to make sure it is exactly what you want. Never have I had a better experience!

Quality experience from the moment I called to make appointments for our services, the check-​in and services experienced. Experienced, intuitive, kind, and empathic practitioners. I only wish this business was in my home town. Will definitely come back when i visit Canada again.

I’ve been seeing Geha for acupuncture and shiatsu massage for about a year now. She’s amazing. Seeing her is about full mind and body health. She helps with nutrition advice, exercise advice, and general health and well being. She truly cares about her patients. I find that I can connect with her and feel at ease in a way I have never been able to before with other massage therapists or acupuncturists. I love my appointments with her and look forward to each one.
The place offers much more than just massage and acupuncture. There are many other therapists and estheticians there offering facials, body wraps, flower essences, aromatherapy, Ayurveda, and reflexology. They also have a beautiful infrared sauna that I plan to try out soon.
All the staff there are friendly and professional. It’s always a pleasure to visit.
