Why Clients Choose a Wellness Spa in the Heart of Pittsburgh
Finding a truly restorative Pittsburgh spa can be a challenge for clients seeking more than a quick-service salon experience. ESSpa was built to fill that gap. Our boutique wellness spa in Aspinwall offers the full spa experience in a single intimate setting, from organic Hungarian skincare to therapeutic bodywork and advanced aesthetic technology. Guests travel from downtown, the North Hills, and even the South Hills for results that cannot be replicated at larger salon chains. Ranked the #3 Best Spa in America and recognized as Top Family Spa in North America, ESSpa has spent more than twenty years at the heart of our wellness community, helping clients rejuvenate in a calm, unhurried setting. Every visit is designed around your unique skin, your goals, and your schedule, so you can fully relax and reset with perfect timing.
Our Story
Founded by Eva Szlupka-Kerschbaumer, a Hungarian Master Esthetician, ESSpa brings centuries-old European beauty and skincare traditions to the heart of Pittsburgh’s Aspinwall neighborhood.
Our philosophy is simple: every guest deserves exceptional care at a fair value, whether they are seeking a quick refresh or a full day of rest. Regulars drive in from downtown, Shadyside, and the South Hills because they expect more than a cookie-cutter visit. We combine time-honored Hungarian techniques with cutting-edge technology to deliver results that speak for themselves. Our licensed therapists, estheticians, and stylists work together to support each client’s unique skin, body, and wellness goals.
Whether you visit for a 15-minute eyebrow wax or an 8-hour day of pampering, our dedicated team ensures you leave feeling renewed, refreshed, and radiant.

Tailored Body Treatments That Restore Radiance
Our body treatments menu goes beyond surface pampering. Each session opens with a short skin and lifestyle conversation so your therapist can build the work around your own pace, stress points, and recovery window. A signature back ritual layers warm paprika-infused steam, slow gentle exfoliation using ground apricot and volcanic clay, and a cocooning Hungarian thermal mask that helps restore radiance across the shoulders and spine. A full body contour wrap uses mineral-rich muds and plant oils to soothe overworked muscles and help the body relax after travel, training, or back-to-back workweeks. It is the kind of treatment that invites you to indulge without guilt. Every rejuvenating experience closes with a hydrating finish and at-home guidance from a licensed specialist. Because treatments are tailored not templated, the skin feels calm, balanced, and noticeably smoother.
Luxurious Manicure and Pedicure at Our Aspinwall Salon
Step away from the bright lights of a typical nail salon and indulge in a slower, more thoughtful approach to hands and feet. Our manicure sessions use non-toxic, long-wear polishes, a warm paraffin dip, and cuticle care formulated with natural plant oils. The luxurious pedicure begins with a Hungarian herbal foot bath, moves into a hand-blended sugar polish along the calves, and finishes with a pressure-point foot rub that eases tightness from ankle to arch. Because our Aspinwall salon is small by design, you will never share a therapist with another guest. Clients often book a manicure and pedicure as a paired spa experience before a wedding or vacation, making it a perfect pre-event ritual. Polish selection and finish time are always tailored to your schedule, and the only thing asked of you is to relax.
Signature Facial Treatments
Every facial service that we deliver is 100% customized to the specific requirements of each individual – at the time of service. This is not just a jumble of words on a website, because your every face is different – and your skin’s needs changes throughout the day. From express refreshers to luxurious multi-hour experiences, find the perfect treatment for your skin’s needs.

When you meet our team, you are meeting a group of licensed estheticians, massage specialists, and certified nail technicians who share one passion: helping each guest feel better in their own skin. Lead esthetician and owner Eva Szlupka-Kerschbaumer trained in Hungary and has spent more than two decades refining ESSpa’s signature techniques in Aspinwall. Every new therapist completes in-house mentorship before serving clients, so the level of care stays consistent and each guest receives the same unique attention from the front desk to the treatment room. Our team is certified in advanced modalities including plasma fibroblasting, microcurrent facelift, PRX-T33 peels, warm bamboo massage, and emerging beauty technologies. Clients seeking long-term results often work with the same specialist across multiple visits, which lets results compound over time.
