    Houston is a hotbed of day spas, skin specialists, and med spas where signature and state-of-the-art treatments are part of the everyday routine. Offering everything from salt room therapy, IV drips, massage, and infusion facials, skin enthusiasts and relaxation junkies now have three more spas to add to their rotation.

    With top-notch amenities and cutting-edge treatments, discover why these three Houston-area spas entice guests to savor every moment of their self-care getaway.

    Escape Spa

    Cypress is now home to a brand-new 5,000-square-foot spa courtesy of LeBrina Jackson, a Houston native and entrepreneur. The concept behind Escape Spa is rooted in promoting recovery and well-being, seamlessly integrating the mind, body, and spirit into each treatment.

    Escape Spa offers an impressive array of services, including hydrotherapy, halotherapy, infrared sauna sessions, contrast bathing, IV infusions, as well as body treatments, massages, and facials.

    The spa stands out for its commitment to a holistic approach to guest well-being and recovery, offering all-inclusive resort-style amenities, such as a co-ed wet room. Guests can luxuriate in a 12-person hot tub or unwind in a dry sauna before experiencing the unique offering of contrast bathing, where a cascade of cold water revitalizes the senses. Clients also have the option to enhance their spa experience by relaxing and detoxifying in the HaloIR salt-sauna suite.

    Escape Spa specializes in hydrotherapy and features a dedicated Vichy shower room with a multi-jet water massage. The state-of-the-art Vichy shower heads dissolve tension and stress throughout the body. Additionally, the spa offers targeted vitamin B12 infusions and detox IV drips administered by registered nurses. Several signature treatments can be enhanced with a 30-minute Normatec boot compression therapy session.

    SkinPharm

    SkinPharm, the cutting-edge skincare brand and a prominent player in aesthetic skin care, recently opened its first Houston outpost. The opening marks the sixth clinic nationwide and the second in Texas. Other locations include Nashville, Franklin, Charlotte, Dallas, and Atlanta.

    Founded by Maegan Griffin in 2017, Skin Pharm provides a clinic environment and product lines that she, as a patient, couldn't find but would love. The brand's foundation lies in unparalleled expertise, extensive practice, and genuine passion, setting it apart in the beauty industry.

    Recently, SkinPharm received a significant $15 million investment from Prelude Growth Partners, which will aid in expanding clinics and developing new products.

    SkinPharm has several signature treatments, including the Gold Infusion, which uses a gentle stamping method to deliver antioxidants, hydrating ingredients, and even Botox to target scars, dark spots, fine lines, and wrinkles.

    Woodhouse Spa

    Known for its consistent offerings and excellent customer service, Woodhouse Spa recently opened its newest outpost inside the Galleria. No need to shop 'til you drop because Woodhouse Spa has everything needed for a relaxing and rejuvenating pick-me-up.

    The Galleria location is also the only spa in the city of Houston to offer its clients a salt room and state-of-the-art infrared sauna. Salt Room Therapy sessions are available for as little as 15 minutes for those on the go or fas long as one hour. According to the Woodhouse website, they will help improve "respiratory health, skin health and offer peace of mind."

    Woodhouse Spa Houston Galleria offers a full-service wellness menu. The spa's unique "mood care" experiences help cultivate a refreshed and renewed feeling that lasts far beyond treatments. Their signature treatments include massage, facials, body treatments, and rituals like the Meditative Mood Soak.

    "We are excited to provide our beloved Houston community with a luxury environment where guests can come to renew and reset, especially business professionals seeking a moment of respite from work," said Evelyn Baldwin, Woodhouse Spa Houston Galleria owner in a statement.

    The Galleria location also features a Quiet Room with light snacks and beverages for guests to enjoy and relax before, after, or in between treatments, as well as in-room soaking tubs and steam showers.

    FIGS will open its new Rice Village Community Hub on December 6.

    Healthcare apparel company FIGS is opening its first brick-and-mortar store in Texas with a new Community Hub in Rice Village. The retail space is designed to serve both as a store and a gathering spot for the city's healthcare community.

    The Rice Village location opens this Saturday, December 6, with a public grand opening event on December 13 from 6 to 8 pm featuring giveaways, music, food, and drinks from local vendors. Joining outposts in Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and New York City, the Houston location is the fourth Community Hub for the company and the only location in the South.

    The store will carry the full range of FIGS products, including scrubwear, loungewear, and accessories. It will also host events and programming focused on healthcare topics, offering visitors opportunities to meet and share experiences.

    At the new FIGS boutique, shoppers will find the Color Clinic, offering scrubwear in core colors with rotating seasonal options. The store also has a Customization Station, which provides embroidery for names, titles, practice or hospital logos, and local icon options available only at Community Hubs. Personalization is also available for scrub caps, outerwear, and accessories.

    The brand, founded in 2013 by Heather Hasson and Trina Spear, is known for fashion-forward medical uniforms made from a proprietary fabric with four-way stretch, antimicrobial technology, moisture-wicking, and wrinkle resistance. Hasson and Spear began selling directly to healthcare workers in Los Angeles-area hospital parking lots before growing their presence as an online retailer.

    CEO and co-founder Trina Spear believes Rice Village was the perfect choice due to its proximity to the Texas Medical Center. She said the company wanted a space that supports Houston healthcare professionals and gives them a place to shop and connect.

    "Houston is home to the Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world, and we are honored to bring a FIGS Community Hub to this city. This space is designed to serve and celebrate Houston healthcare professionals," said Spear. "Our Community Hubs create opportunities for customers to not only shop in a way that never previously existed, but to connect with each other and with FIGS on a deeper level."
