Located in the heart of downtown Ojai, Body Essentials of Ojai is the community’s oldest day spa. It focuses on a holistic approach to wellness with an emphasis on stress reduction, balance of the mind, relaxation, and revitalizing treatments. Body Essentials is committed to using the finest medical-grade and organic ingredients, along with the latest and most effective technologies, to offer treatments that provide visible, lasting results. We caught up with Body Essentials owner Kelli Loughman to learn more about the spa’s must-try treatments and offerings.

Why You’ll Love it: Body Essentials is Ojai’s oldest and most welcoming day spa. People come to our unique valley to restore themselves amidst peaceful, natural beauty, and Body Essentials provides results-oriented services that harmonize inner and outer restoration. We offer a haven in the heart of Ojai to experience state-of-the-art services delivered with Ojai love. Our staff are longtime Ojai residents who truly understand the heart of this special community and we are passionate about the services we provide, allowing our guests to feel truly cared for. Offering services with deep passion and Ojai love is why we were voted Ojai’s Best Day Spa with the Best Facial and Best Esthetician.

Key Features: Body Essentials offers a restful atmosphere with a dedicated relaxation lounge and a 3-in-1 infrared sauna. We also offer steam therapy body treatments in our relaxing steam canopy, micro-current, and a state-of-the-art LED panel to enhance our results-oriented facials.

Insider’s Tip: Get a results-oriented facial! Many spas offer a relaxation facial, which we have as well, and our best-kept local’s secret is our results-oriented facial that is fully customized for each client , matching their skin’s needs with the latest technology and holistic products.  

Spa Snacks: Body Essentials provides light, healthy snacks for our guests including organic tea, nuts, and fruit. For groups and clients booking packages, we work with them to select healthy, local meals.

Splurge Treatment: The Rejuvenating Stem Cell Facial and the Detoxifying Mud Wrap are two of our favorites—combine them and our clients leave feeling completely relaxed and detoxed from the wrap, while the Stem Cell Facial (with our home care routine) will leave your skin looking and feeling better than it has in years.

Insider’s Favorite: With more than 23 years of experience and being a lifelong learner, I now only offer corrective facials that allow me to use my expertise to provide my clients with a one-of-a-kind experience. I’m certified in multiple advanced modalities to provide a truly unique results-oriented corrective facial. This, coupled with a detailed home care regimen, allows me to care for my clients’ greatest skin concerns and provide real, lasting results. Since making this decision to focus on corrective facials, I’m loving the ability to provide this level of customization for my clients. Together, we create a path for them to continue to care for their skin in the best possible way. It’s truly a win-win, as I love hearing from my clients when they can’t believe how much better they look and feel—even after only one treatment.

Featured Products: Osmosis Pur Medical Skincare MD and other advanced corrective products.
