Pranaa Ayurveda Spa & Yoga

Pranaa is the most heavenly, relaxing spa. It has been my favorite spa in Dallas for years. A must-​try. The yoga classes are fantastic, too.

The staff was welcoming and friendly towards me from the get go. Booking an appointment was so easy. The ambiance was nice and relaxing not like a message envy. I didn’t feel like the staff was just there to get you in and and get you out. My therapist was Brandie and was she really good care of me. She knew where my knots were and kept working on them. I just can’t say enough about my session. The hot oils and peppermint scented sheets and head covers were an added bonus. Will be back soon!

The Indian Head Massages from Brandie are heavenly. I wasn’t sure what to expect, since I’ve never had a head massage before, but it was incredible. I was on a different level of relaxation, which felt different from a regular full body massage. Immediately during and after the massage, I felt the TMJ tension in my jaw ease up, I didn’t have a recurring migraine, and I slept SO GOOD.

I saw Ayurvedic practitioner Ritu Bhalla for my baby’s eczema. Ritu is very knowledgeable and caring. She answered all my questions and gave some excellent suggestions on creams, diet that helped in improving my baby’s eczema. She is always willing to help and kept in touch as to how my baby is progressing. I will continue to consult Ritu in the future as well.

I had the 2 person oil abhyanga massage — beware, it is a hot oil BATH, not a massage. The 2 massage therapists were not coordinating their strokes, which is the whole point of a two therapist massage, like this one. The massage part was very disjointed, each therapist used a different type of pressure. They either hadn’t worked together before, or are completely untrained on how to do a four handed massage. I did not feel like I got even a mild massage, the only thing that I left with was grease all over me from head to toe.
The relaxation room seating is extremely uncomfortable, and very small and tight. There is no privacy, and if you wanted to go with a girlfriend, the barrier between the seats makes it impossible to really relax and talk.
The staff was rude at best and unprofessional, they were talking right in front of a few customers in the lobby about how their massage therapists always called out at the last minute, were not following the rules, and they were thinking about firing a few of the therapists.
The massage started 10 min late and ended 5 min early. Very disappointing.

I’ve been going to Pranaa since last yr after I had a Ayurvedic consultation with Ayurveda practitioner. She has a strong desire to help people. She guided me with diet, exercise and daily routine things I can do at home. I have done many holistic treatments but after talking with her I felt my search is over. She
is very knowledgable, informative and very professional. I trust her and have seen difference with her suggestions. I see her every month for Abhyanga massage and other Ayurveda suggestions and lifestyle practices and Pranaa makes it affordable to do them. The staff is very accommodating, friendly and just simply great. I’m so grateful to have found Pranaa & Meenakshi after moving here just about a year!

For many years Pranaa Ayurveda Spa & Yoga has been quietly helping Baal Dan (
) and our kids in India. I am a big believer in the healing power and wisdom of Ayurveda and when I need some pampering and healing after one my trips, I head to Pranaa. Thank you so much to Renuka, Angela and the team there for all they do!

The atmosphere in Pranaa is very welcoming, serene and relaxing. The place is aesthetically pleasing and warm. I went there because of pain in my back and shoulders. Steven was very good. He paid attention to my problems and was able to really work on the knots in my back and shoulders. In fact he gave me a lot of suggestions on how to prevent it in the future. It really worked. Everyone is friendly and nice.
Definitely one of the best places in Plano for a massage.

I wanted to take my brother for a massage for his birthday, and this place was on the D Magazine list of best spas. I figured we would give it a whirl. We got there early, but waited in the reception area 10 minutes past our appt. Then when they walked us back to change, there is only one small room to change in. The locker had shoes that were too small, and the robe looked like it had seen better days. We decided to opt to stay in our own clothes. The massage therapists were good, however the walls were extremely thin. It was hard to relax because the person next door was speaking and there sounded like there was a party on the other side. This might be a great place to do yoga, but for the price I would skip the spa. There are places with better ambiance for this price point. The therapist was nice, professional, and had great technique, so I’m giving this a 3 instead of a 2.

I got my sister a massage from Pranaa for her trip to visit me. The front reception I think her name was Jessica was very helpful and informative with questions about their services. The place looked beautiful. A real oasis. My sister said that Angela gave the best massage she ever had. Also they let me sit in the relaxation room with cold water and hot tea to sip on while I waited for her massage to finish up. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing retreat. It was the perfect end to my sisters trip. Thanks Pranna for helping me make her trip special. I will come again next time for myself.

Extremely professional staff who follow up and help you as much as they can. I came here to consult with Ritu Bhalla for Ayurveda and she has been a boom. She takes personal interest in clients health and makes extra effort and suggests the right thing. Well managed and peaceful! Highly recommended…

My friend and I had a small getaway in Dallas Texas. We wanted to receive massage sessions while there. I was familiar with Pranaa Ayurvedic Spa, from on line searches and getting on their mailing list. Being s massage therapist myself, I was looking for something I had not received before. My friend opted for a 90 minute deep tissue massage, I requested the Abhyanga warm oil massage 90 minutes.
Both our therapists, Angela and Stephen, were exceptional. Highly skilled, professional, warm, friendly. Each a a deep, deliberate, compassionate and intuitive touch. The receptionist was great as well. She made sure all our needs were met. I highly recommend either therapist. I look forward visiting Pranaa, my next visit to Dallas.

I have been interested in Ayurveda for about a year now and have tried reading books to help me learn techniques to balance my body. I found books (and the internet) to be quite intimidating even though I am an avid yoga practitioner and teacher with wonderful gurus that help me connect the dots of the yoga world.
I found Pranaa via
. Ritu Bhalla (ayurvedic consultant) does FREE monthly webinars. Attending these webinars is helping take the mystery out of this ancient practice. While consultations are pricey (~$ 100), I figure it’s cheaper than a handful of pharmaceutical pills later in life. I’ve struggled with allergies and mucus for YEARS and I’m confident that Ritu will help me learn techniques to overcome this Dis-​Ease in my body.
Stay tuned for updates of therapeutic outcomes.

I have been doing yoga for many years and this is definitely my favorite place to practice. The teachers are all true pros. The meditation class is wonderful and taught by an authentic Indian who really knows how to meditate! I recently became a massage member and I am loving the Ayurvedic treatments. I wish I could bottle the smell of the place and bring it home! The owners are very nice and all of the employees love working there. A must visit for anyone living in Plano!

I really love this place. The atmosphere is so inviting and calming. Power Yoga stretches and strengths and gets your heart rate up, too. I wasn’t expecting that! The Gentle Yoga was excellent for a mind and body connection. The instructors are top notch.

The first thing I noticed was the smell, perfection! It was so relaxing and welcoming. I loved it at first sight. Some yoga studios look like a gym but this one is more ‘spa-​like’. I love it! The receptionist was very welcoming. I went to my first yoga meeting on Wednesday night with Pat. It was exactly what I needed that day. It was so relaxing and the instructor was very helpful and reassuring. I definitely recommend this yoga studio. I’m excited to try their spa services!

love love love this place! I love Anusara or Hatha yoga & i’d been trying to find a place that was good & didn’t have hot yoga & bikhram. Also i like to be lead in an intention for my practice & to learn the sanskrit for the different poses. The yoga instructors are very well trained. the beginners classes are excellent! the studio is clean & the atmosphere is inviting. i quickly became a regular here.

I have a super hectic job, and my treat to myself is going to the spa. Pranaa is one of my faves. I had the Abhyanga Warm Oil Massage (according to their site: A journey into complete relaxation and rejuvenation — in this traditional, rhythmical massage from ancient India, warm herbal oils are poured onto and massaged into the body. It is extremely nourishing, nurturing and one of the most complete massages you will ever experience. The aroma of the oils coupled with the effective massage technique will indulge and gratify all your senses.) followed by a 30-​minute herbal steam. I’m a puddle of serenity post-​treatment.
I love it here. It’s very relaxing – they even have a relaxation room with individual little couch cubbies – where you can make hot tea or drink water and lounge on the pillows. I really like the ambiance of Pranaa, since it’s relatively quiet. The yoga room is toward the front & the treatment rooms are in the back. None of that salon/“spa” tomfoolery where the massage room is next to the pedicure room & you can’t ever shake off the noise of the women drinking wine & hooting it up. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that – Woodhouse Spa in Plano, you know who you are – but sometimes you just want to chill.) Pranaa, that’s you.
I’ve been a client for 3 years. I’ve had different technicians, and all have been very good. I’ve been to India, so I’m familiar with a lot of the techniques. I still intersperse a lot of Western treatments into my routine (I’m a member of Massage Envy), but Pranaa is really a treat for the body and the senses. Highly recommended!

Disclaimer: the only reason I reserved the fifth star is because I’m still somewhat newly acquainted with this studio/​spa.
My experiences at Pranaa have thus far been highly satisfactory and equally pleasing. Yoga has been my only patronage so far, and the studio is perfectly suited for someone seeking a well rounded, easily accessible, and comfortable yoga practice. I appreciate the variety of teachers, as well as a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Egos (for the teachers and students) are checked at the door, and all levels of yoga practice are catered to at this studio.
