Etana Wellness - Canmore, Alberta

Ashley C.

Etana Wellness is a beautiful spa in Canmore that can host you for a single treatment, or a full-day spa retreat for yourself or a group! I recently had the pleasure of enjoying a day retreat that was custom designed for myself and 2 other friends.

When I started researching spas in Canmore that offered full retreat experiences, I was looking for options that included physical relaxation as well as a spiritual reset. I also needed a spa that could accommodate 3 of us at the same time. You can imagine how excited I was to find Etana Wellness and learn about their custom day retreats!

They designed the most beautiful day for our group, starting with massages and facials in the morning, followed by a healthy lunch, then some relaxing Reiki, ending with an incredible spiritual workshop that included personalized readings and breathwork.

It's been a long time since both my body and soul have felt such ease. Thank you Etana Wellness, and all the wonderful practitioners that worked with our group, for such a physically and spiritually nourishing retreat experience! I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in Canmore.

I had an absolutely lovely massage by Carlee as well as a 30 minute reiki session afterwards. I’ve had a lot of massages in my life but I can easily say that this massage was probably the best I’ve had. Carlee is so professional and knowledgeable and you can tell she works from a place of genuine care and dedication. I’d highly recommend a treatment with her!

I’ve been seeing Pam for many years and she never disappoints. The space is so warm and inviting, the table and blankets are cozy.
Pam always takes time to listen to my concerns before each session and always checks in with me throughout. I’d highly recommend Pam and Etana Wellness if you’re looking for a caring therapist.

The only place in town that does 2h massages!
For someone who needs certain areas of the body focused on while still wanting a full body massage and a nice long scalp massage, this is the perfect option!
The masseuses here are very professional and friendly!

One time I even asked for a breast massage to alleviate some anxiety pressure in my chest and left the building actually being able to take in a full breath! This was absolutely amazing and they truly have magic hands!

I’ve been to this place a couple times for massages, and while the massages are decent my most recent experience left me very disappointed. I was hoping to make this my go-to spot in Canmore, but I’ll be shopping around.

After tweaking my neck skiing, I booked a massage for the next day. Unfortunately, I woke up feeling unwell and developed a cough over the course of the morning. I called to cancel, explaining the situation. I was told they’d enforce their 24-hour cancellation policy and charge me the full cost of the appointment. Reluctantly, I said I’d come in, despite feeling sick.

When I arrived, I overheard two employees talking about me through the walls (fyi for anyone working there: you can hear everything in the office from the lobby even with the door closed). The massage therapist came out and told me to go home, saying she wouldn’t charge me because I was clearly sick and she didn’t want to get sick herself. While I appreciate her concern for her health, I was frustrated because I had tried to cancel earlier to avoid this exact scenario and was told no and had now made my way there.

I told the massage therapist that I didn’t appreciate how this was handled and asked her to pass along my feedback. I expected to hear back from someone about the situation, but no one has reached out.

What upset me most was having my motives questioned, as though I should have somehow known I’d wake up sick 48 hours in advance when booking the appointment. I understand the need for a cancellation policy, but some flexibility would go a long way, especially for returning clients. I’ve had biweekly massages at various places over the years, and most businesses are reasonable about cancellations in genuine cases like this and only enforce the cancelation policy if clients are abusing it.

Outstanding. I have had massages at Etana Wellness with Carrie and KateLynn (both are excellent, in varying ways). The location is peaceful, clean, and there are beautiful houseplants which bring the calm of nature in. It’s a comfy massage bed, with heat or not. One can have music or not to suit your needs.

For a location to be so tranquil and yet near to the Main Street is quite an achievement.

I love that Etana Wellness is a short walk to the Bow River; a nice free ‘add on’ for me, is to walk by the river, letting the relaxation of the massage restore not only my body but the mind too.

There’s no hurry to rush back into life, surely?

When I feel disconnected or feel the need for some extra self care, I go to Etana. Whether you book a massage with Katelynn or Allie, attend one of their amazing community gatherings or try out acupuncture, you'll leave the building feeling refreshed and realigned with yourself. 10/10 recommend this business and will be back time and time again.

Absolutely heaven sent 😭❤️🙏 I was having a lot of body aches and knots for quite sometime now and the following hours since I had Pam’s massage is such a revelation to me! I’d never felt this better in months! My usual body aches that I endure everyday in simple activities such as sitting or picking up things or walking up the stairs are gone now. We’d definitely come back and recommend Etana to our friends who’d visit Canmore.

p.s. Pam, if you’re reading this thank you soooo much and may your business grew and help more people who have to endure body aches in their everyday lives 🥹
