8 new studios for fitness, beauty, and massage in Dallas-Fort Worth
Canyon Ranch
Dallas-Fort Worth is state-of-the-art when it comes to fitness, beauty, and the pursuit of physical perfection. We have high-end gyms, massage boutiques, Botox centers, lasers, and pretty people options galore.
Here are eight new places and programs to get your beauty treatment on:
Body20
"Fitness" studio founded in Austin just opened its seventh DFW location at The Shops at Highland Village. They use EMS — electro-muscle stimulation — a technology that claims to burn calories, reduce cellulite, tone up, and build lean muscle without you having to pick up a weight or use traditional gym equipment. Workouts include strength and cardio training. Memberships start at $200 a month. This is the seventh location in the Dallas area.
Canyon Ranch Fort Worth Wellness Club + Spa
Premier luxury health and fitness destination in Fort Worth has launch a new Reformer Pilates offering. With Reformer pilates, you perform on a reformer machine rather than on a mat. It's said to be extra helpful for people who've recently had an injury, and is a safe but challenging workout for people of all fitness levels. Classes are led by fitness buff Florence Brewer and are 60 minutes long, for $60.
Life Time
Upscale fitness chain — although they dropped the "Fitness" from their name — just opened a location in Westlake, at 2902 Sam School Rd. The two-story 110,000-square-foot space features an expansive workout floor, indoor & outdoor pools with a water slide, a kids academy, seven pickleball courts, a fast-casual LifeCafe, a full-service LifeSpa, and well-appointed locker rooms. Classes include yoga, pilates, dance, strength training, and stretch recovery. Membership fees start at $259 for full access to amenities. This is Life Time’s 33rd location in Texas.
Nood Wax and Sugar
Woman-owned business offering several hair removal services for women and men just opened a new location in Bishop Arts at 736 W. Davis St.; they also have locations in Austin and Fort Worth. It’s a wax and sugaring concept with brow waxing, henna brows, body waxing, and Brazilian wax. This boutique is designed with a brightly-colored, quirky interior with plenty of mermaid imagery. Prices range from $5 for nose waxing to $60 for eyebrow lamination.
The Now Massage
Boutique therapeutic spa just opened a location in Las Colinas at 5228 N. O'Connor Blvd. #120. It features Swedish and sports massages, plus various balms and heat therapy. Fees range from $60 for 25 minutes to $150 for 80 minutes; memberships start at $75 for a monthly 50-minute massage. This is the chain's eighth location in DFW.

Squeeze Massage
App-based massage concept founded in California by the founders of Drybar recently opened a location in Prosper at 220 S. Preston Rd. #20. There are eight private massage suites and a relaxation zone with a “stress-ball wall.” They serve complimentary hot tea, infused water, and healthy snacks. Guests can schedule and pay for massages through an app without making a call. Prices range from $95 for a monthly membership to $159 for a single 80-minute massage.
Training Mate
Fitness studio founded by former Australian rugby professional and celebrity trainer Luke Milton specializes in high-intensity interval training (HIIT), which has become a bit of a buzzword in fitness circles. Training Mate — which has two Dallas locations at 4823 Bryan St. and 3858 Oak Lawn Ave. #430 — offers five classes that blend cardio, strength, and functional exercises in a group environment.
