The 75 minute Surya Spa facial is magical. Kate is so talented at what she does and I cant recommend this service enough. First of all, Kates sweet little studio is like like a cocoon of sanity. Youll love it. This was my first treatment with her and the whole thing was like a meditative ritual. In addition to the great smelling natural products (many of which she blends herself), in this treatment you get a foot and calf massage, arm and hand massage and a neck and face massage that will send you in to bliss. Kate is very knowledgeable and intuitive. She knew with one quick look that my skin was sensitive and dry (true and true) and so she chose treatments and therapeutic grade essential oils with hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties. My skin looks and feels amazing. Ill be back for sure.

Kate is AMAZING. Her spa is a little oasis in the city— do yourself a favor and GO! Her facial is like having a full hot stone massage except you leave with glowing, beautiful skin. Highly recommend 🙌✨❤️

LOVE Kate! Not only does my skin always look amazing no matter what service I do, i.e Brazilian or facial. Her attention to detail is astounding. The space she has created is like no other environment of a spa I have been to. I have been to a lot. It’s an amazing one on one experience with her greeting you at the door! No more large waiting rooms. You come away feeling like you had a day at the spa and hung out with a close friend. I couldn’t recommend her enough! Surya Spa is a diamond in the rough.

Kate’s products are absolutely the best ever! The creams, scents, sprays, balms never fail to amaze me. Of course, I also love treatments in her spa. She is attentive, warm, and professional. Best of all, I leave her spa feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. And it all takes place in a gem of a space.

Best wax in Seattle! This really is about as quick and painless of a wax you could possibly get, especially after a year of covid! I appreciate the use of hard wax and the relaxing spa atmosphere. Definitely worth the drive into magnolia. Parking is easy to find right in front. Also you can not beat the price!

Referred to Kate by my previous waxer (moved out of town). Easy to make an appointment, even same day via text. Kate’s Surya Spa is clean, calming, smells delicious, and had the right volume on the “bells” background noise. It is cozy and comfortable. Has a separate bathroom. Kate is a professional, so easy to connect with, and flexible. My first service was a wax - she listened to my request to make it more comfortable, it went quickly and, while not 100% painless - which it NEVER is, it was overall a positive experience. I am making her my regular for that service! Next service was a facial. Ahhhh what a treat!! Kate really shines in the care she puts in to her clients. She is very considerate and makes sure to give good aftercare advice. Definitely put Surya Spa on a self-care checklist y’all!!

I was referred here by a friend and Im so excited that I found this place ! I went for a Brazilian bikini wax and it was quick and was far less painful than the ones Ive had in the past . I think the whole thing took only about 15 minutes. Her prices are reasonable and she offers a $55 brazilian if u come back by 4 weeks. The owner Kate was kind , funny, and had a nice relaxed personality. She immediately made me feel comfortable in her cute spa studio space. if you are looking for an expert Brazilian wax then Surya Spa is your place !

I absolutely LOVE Kate. She is a master waxer and does my lashes beautifully! I have been a client for years and wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else. She’s is extremely clean and always ready for me when I come. 💜

I have been going to Kate for 10-14 years and she is the best. Every service I have received has been exceptional.

Fantastic facial! Kate is professional and the experience is very personalized. Delightful products that she makes herself!!

Kate does an amazing job on waxing! Love it and highly recommend getting a wax here. She uses a combination of hard and soft wax. She is very knowledgeable and helpful if you have questions. She also uses an amazing product line that is all essential oils that I believe she makes herself.

Kate is the consummate professional. Her spa is small, yet inviting and spotless !I would highly recommend Surya Spa!

This spot is a gem, Kate does an amazing job. Highly recommend a relaxing facial from her.

Surya Spa is a relaxing retreat conveniently located in the heart of Magnolia. I’ve been going to Kate almost 5 years for waxing and facials. Kate does the best brow waxes; providing a polished look while maintaining the fullness of my brows. Kate’s facials are the most relaxing I’ve ever had; the extractions and treatments are gentle; and the arm, hand and foot rock massages and cozy heated blankets take the facial to another level. She also makes her own skin care products that are high quality and effective; they all smell amazing! On top of all of this, Kate is an absolute joy to visit with during the services. Highly recommend Kate and Surya Spa!

Kate is as good as it gets! She was able to squeeze me in last minute on a Sunday (so rare) many years ago and Ive been seeing her ever since for waxes and facials. I can say with confidence I will never go anywhere else. I look forward to my appointments and my brows always look incredible! She makes and uses her own products with amazing and natural ingredients and makes me feel confident in what I put on my skin! I recommend Surya Spa to anyone looking for a long term esthetician because Kate is simply the best!

I have been going to Kate for over five years for waxing and spa services and would highly recommend both! She has lots of options for evening appointments and is very flexible when I have to rearrange things last minute. I always feel relaxed leaving a visit here and love that she makes her own products!

Kates spa is the most relaxing and peaceful environment. She takes great care of her clients, makes all of her own amazing products, and really takes her time with each individual person seeing them for who they are and honoring their requests and needs. She is such a kind and gracious person. Ive been seeing her for about 9 years, and I will never go elsewhere. Shes the best.

I love Surya Spa! Kate is wonderful and welcoming and the space is very serene. Though I have moved away and can’t use her services anymore, I still use her lotions and serums because they are too good to stop! They feel luxurious on your skin and smell heavenly. Thank you for sharing your energy and knowledge with the world, Kate!

I have been going to Kate for years. Her facials and peels are amazing and so relaxing. Love the natural products she uses during her services. I also see her regularly for waxing. She works evenings and weekends which are perfect for my schedule. She also makes her own skincare products. My fav is her serum - I am hooked on it....way better than the other expensive serums on the market (I think I have tried them all).

Kate -- and her waxing services -- are FAB-U-LOUS. I have been going to her for almost 13 years because she is thorough, dependable, thoughtful and overall a wonderful person who does her job with the utmost in dedication. She has created a lovely little oasis to visit and strives to make hair-ripping-out as enjoyable as it can be. Highly, highly recommend!

What a gem of a spa! I have been getting my eyebrows waxed here for years. Kate does a perfect job every time, and she is really nice. I went in recently for a facial and it was sublime. Also, when i was pregnant, i went in for a bikini wax, and even though i was super sensitive, it was no big deal, which i think has to have everything to do with how she does them, bc that was not my experience elsewhere.

Love this spa and love, love, love Kate even more! She is great at what she does and makes you feel very comfortable during the process. I keep coming back because I already know that my experience is going to always be great.

Love her! I have been with her over a decade and I love her work. She is so calm and non judgmental that makes one very comfortable. Thank you Kate!

Kate is amazing! Waxing is an inherently painful and uncomfortable process but Kate makes it pleasant. She gives wonderful facials which is a great option after waxing. Spend some time with her and you’ll be very happy you did.

Surya Spa is a serene oasis in the midst of the busy-ness of life. Ive been going for years for both waxing and facials and cant recommend it highly enough. Kate will leave you feeling very nurtured and well cared for ... and your skin will be glowing:)

I’ve been going to Kate for multiple years now and she always does amazing work. She’s extremely knowledgeable in her craft and eager to share what she knows. Often I leave with something new to try or having learned something new I can apply around skin care, essential oils, nutrition, etc. Also her studio is a very serene and inviting place. I highly recommend her!

Love this place! Kate is quick, thorough, and awesome - all the best things when looking for an esthetician. I also love that she makes her own natural products 🙌

Surya Spa is such a serene and wonderful spa. Kate is so thorough and knowledgeable, and does a phenomenal job. She always makes it fun and relaxing at the same time, and I am so glad I found her!

Ive been seeing Kate for years for waxing, tinting and facials. The prices are amazing and she has a super flexible schedule. Her facials are 75 minutes of pure bliss. So much massage is included during the facial its like getting two services in one! I always leave her spa feeling completely relaxed and refreshed.I also love her organic skin care line which she makes in her spa! I love the White Tea Facial Exfoliant and use the Immortelle Moisturizing Lotion on a daily basis. It leaves my skin smooth and glowing.Treat yourself to a visit to Surya Spa!

Kate does an amazing job tinting and waxing my brows, and she’s fantastic to chat with on top of it. Love her!

Kate offers great waxing and facials. I’ve appreciated her handmade, natural products, as well as her calm, inviting space.

Kate is very professional while being personable. She did an amazing wax job and I would highly recommend her .... Precision and quality and a relaxing environment.

Surya Spa is such an amazing place, and Owner/esthetician Kate Thorbeck is a dream! Her facials are the most relaxing I’ve ever had, and her organic skin care line is unmatched!

Very relaxing and very effective facials! A respite and treat you’ll remember.

Surya Spa is a gem! Kate is kind and attentive and her products are amazing.
