Founded by celebrity aesthetician Vicki Morav, Vicki Morav Spa is a stunning sanctuary of beauty and wellness located on Manhattan’s Upper East Side in New York.

Located on Manhattan’s Upper East Side in New York, Vicki Morav Spa is a stunning 3,200 square-foot sanctuary that offers guests the ultimate escape from fast-paced urban life. The beautifully designed space was created in collaboration with Mathew Kelly, founder and CEO of MKDREAMDESIGN, and features a curated retail store, luxurious treatment rooms, peaceful relaxation lounge, and an event space.

The first floor of the spa offers the ultimate wellness retreat that includes a welcome area, retail space comprised of Morav’s trusted beauty products, and body treatment rooms embellished with crystals and state-of-the-art saunas and showers. The second floor has an open ‘resting’ space created for panel discussions, workshops, and meditation. It also is home to four treatment rooms where guests can receive an array of transformative treatments that are customized to match each individual’s unique chemistry.

“My mission has always been to provide the most honest, incredible skin and body care in NYC,” says Morav. “It is a true honor and pleasure to serve my clients. With this new expansion, I am able to further this mission by creating an oasis where people can come in, let go and enjoy the full spa experience. At the same time, we also educate clients on how new and old philosophies related to health and wellness can open minds and hearts that allow for growth. With pure intentions and a profound desire to serve, I’m here to create a better world and leave something special behind for the skincare industry and my clients. Come in to get gorgeous again!”

The spa’s dreamy interior was designed in collaboration with Mathew Kelly, founder and CEO of MKDREAMDESIGN.

Why You’ll Love It: The breathtaking space and an incredible flow of energy (it's a feel good space) among all the treatments performed that are highly results-oriented! They also love my staff that greets every client with a smile!

The 3,200 square-foot, two-story spa allows for expanded services, treatments, and wellness opportunities.

Key Features: A beautiful storefront full of highly-effective products, infrared saunas, a relaxation/lecture/meditation area, as well as five luxurious treatment rooms for face, body, and laser treatments.

The relaxation lounge offers guests a place to enjoy peace and quiet in-between treatments.

Bonus: A complimentary glass of champagne, variety of teas, nuts, dates, oranges, and grapefruit blossom water. I try to create a space of comfort, peace, and calm that feels as if we are not in NYC!

The curated retail area includes Morav’s trusted beauty products.

Insider’s Tip: Stay calm, everything passes, and that 'beauty' is feeling comfortable in your skin!

Snacks Served: Champagne, orange grapefruit water, herbal teas, dates, nut mix (walnuts, pecans, almonds, brazil nuts, Persian resins, apricots), guava, and fresh berries.

Kelly’s style of architecture and interior design stems from his passion for the meditative arts and helped transform the space into a beautiful oasis of calm and serene energy.

Unique Treatment: Every single treatment is unique and curated for each unique chemistry. There's no gimmicks—only pure, results-oriented treatments that slow down and prevent the aging process. All my treatments work in a unique, scientifically proven way inside and out!

The second floor of the spa offers an open resting space created for panel discussions, educational workshops, and meditation.

Insider’s Favorite: Every treatment is a favorite. I find great privilege serving, educating, and giving my very best as well as giving the most advanced, result-oriented treatments in the skincare industry!

The spa is also home to four new treatment rooms where Morav offers transformative treatments that are customized to match each client’s unique chemistry.

Splurge Treatment: A 30-minute infrared sauna followed by lymphatic drainage, a triple body peel, and a jet scalp treatment that is like no other.
