About

Desert Zen Day Spa is located on Washington Street in Palm Desert and is locally owned and family-operated. The spa states it has been in business for 21 years. It describes its salon as high-end, with private treatment rooms, and calls itself the cleanest salon in the Coachella Valley. The spa also describes its prices as reasonable. It lists associations with Ronald McDonald House, Guide Dogs of the Desert, the Alzheimer Association, Desert Cancer Society, Boys and Girls Club and the Greater Coachella Valley Chamber of Commerce.

Massage is a large part of the menu, including Swedish, couples, therapeutic, deep tissue, sports, maternity (done side-lying), hot stone, neck and shoulder, scalp, face and reflexology. CBD-infused versions use a massage oil the spa describes as FDA-approved cannabidiol. The spa states its massage therapists are state licensed and board certified. Any package massage can be upgraded to deep tissue or hot stones for an extra $20 per person. Body scrubs come in classic and signature versions, with mud options for the longer treatments, and Luxe Hydrating is a warming balm body treatment.

Facials are grouped into classic, advanced and intimate options, and Botox and Juvéderm are also offered. Choices include a blemish control facial for acne-prone skin and acne scars, a retinol anti-aging facial, microdermabrasion, dermaplaning, a vitamin C facial, peptide contouring and a Celluma light facial. Chemical peels (glycolic, lactic, salicylic, mandelic and Jessner) and high frequency can be added to most facial or relaxation visits. Intimate facials are available as well.

Eyelash extensions come in classic, hybrid and volume styles as full sets or fills; the spa notes fill prices may vary depending on the condition of the lashes or whether lashes from another salon are present. Brow tinting, lash tinting, brow lamination and lash lifts are also offered. Waxing covers the face, body and intimate areas. Tanning includes airbrush sessions, Red Light UV Hybrid sessions, which the spa says give a faster, deeper bronze, and tanning beds, with a 10 percent tan tax added. Elliet offers Usui Reiki sessions and several other Reiki styles.

Body spa services require an appointment, and clients are asked to arrive at least ten minutes early; tanning clients arrive 15 minutes early. Appointments can be cancelled free of charge up to 12 hours ahead, while later cancellations, reschedules and no-shows are charged the full service price. Tanning beds take walk-ins, though booking saves time. Hours are Monday to Friday 9 am to 7 pm and Saturday 9 am to 6 pm, closed Sunday. Gift certificates can be bought instantly online. Payment options include major cards, PayPal, SpaFinder, Spa Week, cash, check and mobile NFC payments. The spa has a wheelchair accessible restroom and a unisex restroom, and business listings describe it as welcoming to LGBTQ clients.

The spa describes its aim as balancing mind, body and spirit. Its menu pairs relaxation treatments with skin care and body work.

Described as high-end, with private treatment rooms.
