Welcome to L'Institut Sothys

Like its sister spa in Paris, L'Institut Sothys New York offers the quintessential French spa experience. "The difference between Sothys and other day spas is that we make it a priority to provide the human touch to everything we do," said Trena Ross, Spa Director, L'Institut Sothys New York. "We rely less on machines and more on actually touching our clients from the outside-in. Our goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment where each person can feel comfortable in their own skin."

From their signature facials and digi-esthetique massage methods to their full concierge and express services, L'Institut Sothys New York strives to address every skin and body care need. The spa houses 10 treatment rooms and is the only comprehensive retail center in the United States that carries the entire range of SOTHYS products including facial care, body care, sun care, makeup and specialty treatments.

Aesthetically, the impressive 5,000-square-foot space incorporates dramatically curved ceilings and walls along with a sculpted stairway. Blending contemporary style with modern French influences, the space is open, airy and beautifully lit with both natural and custom lighting.

The spa's three levels house an inviting retail/reception area, a luxurious, one-of-a-kind hydrotherapy room, numerous treatment rooms for body, face and nails, and a café modeled after a French Bistro where clients can enjoy a beverage or light lunch.

The unique and exclusive hydrotherapy room is the piece de resistance of the Spa. Natural sunlight streams in from the skylight above the hydrotherapy tub, bathing the room in natural light. The soothing sound of cascading water adds to the decadent and pampering treatment experience and provides an oasis of relaxation and comfort, away from the hustle and bustle of New York City.

More than 20 SOTHYS signature treatments are available at the spa, including the exclusive Institute Treatments ¨D which sets SOTHYS apart from other leaders in the industry. The spa aestheticians are trained by aestheticians from the SOTHYS Institut de Beaute in Paris and are the ultimate experts in the SOTHYS technique, giving the New York spa the utmost authenticity.
