In the bustling heart of New York City, where the line between work and play often blurs, there’s a unique wellness concept that’s been making waves since 2013. Meet The Party Spa, a celebrity-approved mobile spa that’s on a mission to make wellness popular and accessible to everyone.
Born from a simple idea of offering chair massages in nightclubs, The Party Spa has evolved into a full-fledged wellness experience that brings luxury spa services directly to your home, office, hotel, or event. Founded by Asher Wilkins, a licensed massage therapist with a passion for nightlife, this innovative concept quickly caught the attention of club owners and event promoters, becoming a coveted addition to the NYC nightlife scene.
But The Party Spa didn’t stop there. As word spread about their unique offerings, they soon found themselves catering to high-profile celebrity events, concerts, and multi-city music tours. From the hallowed halls of Madison Square Garden to the trendy Barclays Center, The Party Spa has left its mark on some of the iconic venues in the city.
What sets The Party Spa apart from other mobile or luxury spas in New York? For starters, it’s one of the few black-owned, male-owned businesses in a female-dominated industry. But more than that, it’s their ability to merge professional talent with a runway appearance that truly makes them stand out. Don’t be surprised if you mistake their massage therapists, estheticians, and nail techs for performers at your event – that’s all part of The Party Spa experience!
The team at The Party Spa, affectionately known as “Spa Baes,” are more than just wellness professionals. They’re styled like a “music band,” offering services in a non-traditional manner that perfectly blends the worlds of wellness and entertainment. Picture this: expert massages performed in heels, skincare treatments that feel like a performance, and nail services that are as much about the experience as they are about the result.

But don’t let the glitz and glamour fool you. At its core, The Party Spa is deeply committed to promoting wellness in all communities. Their slogan, “Making Wellness Popular,” is a mission statement. The Party Spa believes that body-based therapies may reduce stress, slow down the aging process, and prolong life. Their goal is to make practices like massage therapy, skincare routines, reflexology, and stretch therapy as much a part of our daily lives as our morning coffee.
Over the years, The Party Spa has had the privilege of serving some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. One of their memorable experiences was providing services at the home of Mary J. Blige‘s mother, where they pampered “The Queen of Hip Hop Soul” herself, along with her family and friends. They’ve also been featured on reality television shows for BET and VH1, and were recently part of designer Laquan Smith’s show for New York Fashion Week.
But you don’t have to be a celebrity to enjoy The Party Spa‘s services. Whether you’re planning a bridal shower, a corporate event, or just want to treat yourself to some at-home pampering, The Party Spa has got you covered. Their range of services includes massage, skincare, nail care, and makeup, all delivered with the same level of professionalism and flair that they bring to their high-profile events.
The Party Spa is constantly innovating and finding new ways to bring wellness to the masses. One exciting project on the horizon is the “Confessions of a Celebrity Massage Therapist” podcast, set to launch in November 2024. This biweekly, 30-minute show will feature members of The Party Spa team discussing their celebrity encounters and providing insights into various aspects of wellness – from physical and mental health to financial and social well being.
The Party Spa‘s journey is a testament to the power of a great idea, executed with passion and professionalism. From its humble beginnings in the NYC nightlife scene to becoming a go-to wellness provider for celebrities and everyday New Yorkers alike, The Party Spa has truly redefined what it means to “party.”
So, the next time you’re planning an event – whether it’s a quiet night in with friends or a full-blown extravaganza – why not add a touch of luxury wellness to the mix? With The Party Spa, you’re not just getting a massage or a manicure; you’re getting an experience that blends the best of both worlds – the excitement of a party and the relaxation of a spa.
