Natural Elements Spa & Salon

Wow! Wow! Wow! I just had my first appointment here this morning, was a little worried after seeing a few negative comments, but it was fantastic! I felt welcomed from the moment I walked in. I had a 30 minute spa capsule treatment and a 60 minute swedish massage (both done by Dawn) and it was amazing! i definitely recommend doing the spa capsule before getting your massage. Not only does it leave your skin soft, it puts you in a deep relaxed state of mind before you get the kinks worked out! I also learned they have 25% off Tuesdays so I got an unexpected discount. I cannot wait to come back! Thanks guys for the wonderful experience!

My Mom, Grandma & I were visiting from out of town, and we decided to spend a day at the spa & I picked Natural Elements from the Spa Finder website & it was great !! I tried their new Spa Capsule which was absolutely awesome, and 4 days later my skin still feels great. Yen you were awesome & you made the experience relaxing. The cold stone facial massage sounded crazy - but ohhhh was it great!! Thanks to the other staff that took care of my Mom & Grandmother - they enjoyed their Swedish Massage & Facial. Thank you again for a great experience, I would recommend them to anyone, especially if you are visiting from out of town. I hope to visit the area again.

I came on vacation alone to de-stress(just finished school/family stuff) and I chose this spa mostly because it had the 2nd highest rating(the other had no opening for a month). I did the full Elemental Joy package and I can honestly say it was worth every penny! They included the gratuity in the listed price as well which I was pleased to find out. My stone massage and the spa capsule were done by Ebony. She is wonderful, so attentive and just wants to make sure you're having a great experience. I then was switched off to Sarah(I guess she is new because she isn't on their website) and she did my facial(first EVER!) and my pedicure. She was so sweet and the facial was just amazing. I really had no idea about them and was worried because I acne prone skin but I looked sooooo much better AFTERwards. They were just amazing. I have lower back chronic injury pain and Ebony paid it special attention but nothing hurt, nothing was uncomfortable, they have an amazing place with great ambiance. If you want the full on amazing water-fall-sound-herb-scented-feel-like-a-million-bucks experience you should go. I will when I take another trip here and have the money again!

My husband is coming back from overseas in a week and I had to do a spa day to get myself ready. I went to Natural Elements Spa and got a facial, body wax, manicure and pedicure. My esthetician was the Best Ever!!!!! She was very knowledgeable about the products and skin. It was my first time getting a brazilian wax and i was very nervous! My esthetician made me feel sooo relaxed and she was quick with that wax, that it was over before it started. The receptionist gave me a tour of the spa and I cant wait to come back!! She explained the other services to me, and I cant wait to get a spa capsule! I highly recommend this spa to everyone!!!!!

My wife purchased a day at the spa for my birthday. I was a bit nervous at first, but immediately was taken over. I had the spa capsule (which was amazing), a hot stone massage, and then ear candles. I was really nervous about that but my therapist explained the benefits and it was great. The technique used by my therapist was perfect, being in the Navy I have a lot of tension areas and she really worked those out. This was definitely a great experience, and I look forward to many more. The staff was great, from the reception desk throughout the facility. I enjoyed the atmosphere.

Don't get a massage here! At Natural Elements Spa, I was left with a pain in the neck after my "relaxing one hour massage." The masseuse, Mariah, pressed on the bones on the side of my neck so hard that I had my fists clenched and I nearly cried. It's now the following day, I can't turn my head because of the pain. The remainder of the massage consisted of her poking and prodding me. I think she may have learned her technique from a 5 minute YouTube video. I have received many massages at other places and have always been left feeling relaxed. I'm not sensitive to pressure, and I have never felt pain after a massage before. Clearly they need to hire employees with adequate training and skill.

My friend and I came to the spa today and we were thrilled with our experience! We were there for 3 hours and it was pure bliss. We had the spa capsule treament, 1hour massage and pedicure. The spa capsule was my absolute favorite. Ebony, Moriah and Dawn gave us excellent service. I took my friend as a Christmas gift. My husband gave me a gift certificate in May. My only regret is that I waited so long to use it. I know others say they thought it was expensive but it was worth every penny to me. I will definitely return for another natural elements experience.

While I can't tell you when my most recent visit was (somewhere in the last month or so), I can tell you that my wife and I have been using Natural Elements for several years. They have always provided us with excellent service, and are always attentive to our needs. They routinely offer discounted massage services with their student therapists (best value around IMHO), and I have never had a bad experience with them. Initially, I wasn't going to write a review, but I read some of the negative reviews, and they seem extremely off base from what I have come to expect as normal at Natural Elements. Please don't be swayed by the comments of a few. Take my word for it. Natural Elements is the best Spa experience in Hampton Roads!

I live in Norfolk and driving to Chesapeake to this wonderful Spa because it is so worth it. By the time you enter the door and greeted by the friendly staff, you know you are in for a special treat. The whole atmosphere is calm and soothing. I had my massage from Dawn who did a great job. Afterwards, I had my hair done by stylist Emilie who took the time to go over my concerns of my hair and did an amazing job. You will not be disappointed. There services are second to none. Kudos to the owners and their team for the best spa in Hampton Roads. I look forward to future treatments.

I am currently growing out a HACK JOB that I received at their salon. Laura had no idea what she was doing, I probably would have been better luck giving my 3 year old a pair of scissors and setting her loose on my hair. AWFUL.

I sent someone to this spa a few weeks ago as a gift and the only thing they got out of the experience was disappointment, and a ridiculously high bill of several hundred dollars. The quality of the work done on their nails was atrocious (horrible). The "manicurist" by the name of Kirsten was especially sloppy with painting and filing. The finished nails were still jagged and uneven. She then continued to paint over the nail lotion, leaving bits of grit all over the nails. She obviously did not use any kind of guide or stencil, as the paint is all over the cuticles and side skin. This was done after bragging about her schooling for the trade. The employees obviously have no care for the quality of the work done, only the pretentiousness of paying for their name. Then again, if you like that sort of thing this is definitely the place. You would be better going to a cheap nail salon in a mall. And how much did this experience cost? Well over a couple hundred dollars. A complete waste. Men; do not send your women here, they will appreciate better quality elsewhere, and your wallet will appreciate the cost. On a personal note, I'm quite appalled by the lies women tell themselves to validate the cost of these services. Love yourself more, and set your standard much higher than this by demanding better service.

The only thing I liked about this Spa was the receptionist and the pedicure! They have you de-robe in a locker room which is fine but then they take you back to the tiny community waiting room that has room for about 6 people. So now your sitting there squished in your robe with only panties on underneath, with others that are coming in for their appointments as well. Both Men and Women!!! They only offer water and I think it was trail mix but I wouldnt know because it never got filled during my appointment! I selected the capsule which I was so looking forward too! The technician offered me a hair net(not a shower cap)! My hair was ruined! Then I find out afterwards she could have given me a shower cap! Next comes my massage. I was so needing this after I looked in the mirror and saw that my hair had grown three times the size! How about the massage technician scratched me a number of times! Her techniques we all over the place. She'd rub one side but kneed the other! I was not happy! I was so glad that I didnt pay for this package! But what a waste because I did not get the much needed relaxation.

If you have been looking for a true spa experience in the local area, you must see this place. They use to be called Blue Lotus and I had several appointments there, which I enjoyed very much. The service was always friendly, the massage was great, but the visual appeal was just average. They are Natural Elements now with a new location and a whole new look! It is by far the most beautiful spa around and it has the best service we have experienced in this area ! They have locker rooms, a relaxation area and earthy natural decor that makes you feel like your on vacation. You really have to see the place to believe it. We have been there three times now and just can't wait to go back! You have to try the capsule spa treatment thing. I normally just get massage but this spa makes you want to try something new. I may even take a yoga class !!!

I walked in and immediately felt relaxed! The atmosphere and staff are what make this place a place I highly recommend. For what you get the prices are fantastic! I had the Cayce-Reilly massage and it was the best!

I experienced the half day package called the mini-vacation and it was wonderful! Everyone I came in contact with was extremely nice and caring. I had the steam bath, the mineral body polish, the seaweed wrap, lunch from 1 of 3 restaurants, a 1 hour acupressure massage, and a 30 minute facial. All were wonderful! I can't even say which part I liked the most! I had never had an acupressure massage before and it was very relaxing. It's not like a Swedish massage and there's no rubbing or kneading. It focuses on firm pressure on various points of the body. Overall, I had a great experience, will definitely return, and recommend this spa to anyone looking for relaxation! They have many different packages available too.
