Kuku Spa

Kuku Spa is a neighborhood spa with three Manhattan locations: Lower East Side, Midtown West and Upper East Side. The Lower East Side studio is the original, quiet and intimate. Services include muscle therapy, foot rubs, facials, and lymphatic recovery, a gentle rhythmic massage aimed at puffiness and circulation, plus specialized care for postpartum recovery, sleep and skin health. Every location has couples rooms for side-by-side bodywork, so book ahead. Services are priced without gratuity, and a facial menu is built around what the skin needs that day, from a quick refresh before an event to a longer session. Tips go directly to the specialist, eGift cards are sold, private events can be arranged, and each location takes bookings online or by its own phone line.
