Requirements

We rent to licensed professionals only. Before your first booking is confirmed, send the following to {{SITE_B_EMAIL}}:

A copy of your current New York State licence for the modality you intend to practise (LMT, esthetician, L.Ac., or the relevant NYC permit for PMU work).
A certificate of professional liability insurance in your own name, current through the dates you intend to book.
Government photo ID matching the name on the licence.
A one-line description of the services you will be providing in the room.

Verification usually takes one business day. Once you are approved you book yourself directly through the calendar without asking us each time.

Why rent here instead of…

…signing your own lease

A small Manhattan treatment space on a commercial lease means a multi-year commitment, a security deposit, a build-out, your own insurance on the premises, utilities, laundry and cleaning. It is the right answer once you are full five days a week. Before that, you are paying for empty hours. Here you pay for occupied hours only.

Honest downside of renting: you do not control the signage, the layout or the hours, and you cannot leave a room set up overnight the way you could in your own lease.

…joining a studio as staff

Staff positions bring you clients and remove admin, but you are typically on a split, you do not own the client relationship, and the studio sets your pricing. Renting inverts that: you keep the full fee and the client, and you carry the cost of finding them.

Honest downside of renting: nobody hands you a book. If you do not already have clients, a staff role will pay you sooner.

…generic coworking or a day office

Coworking is cheap, but it is not built for bodywork: no heated table, no sink you can rely on, no laundry, thin walls, and most operators' terms do not permit hands-on health-and-beauty services at all. Your insurer may also take a view on it. This room is purpose-fitted and permitted for the work.

…informally subletting from another practitioner

Subletting a chair or a room by handshake is usually the cheapest option and often works fine. The risks are real though: no written terms, availability that evaporates when the primary tenant's book fills, ambiguity about whose insurance covers an incident, and no recourse if the space is double-booked. Here you have a published rate, a real calendar, written terms and someone accountable for the linens.

Honest downside of renting: we are more expensive than a favour from a colleague.

Location and transit

Relax and Relief by Enhancewell
41 Union Square West, Suite 501
New York, NY 10003

Union Square is one of the best-connected corners of Manhattan, which matters when your clients are coming from all over the city. The station below the square is served by the 4, 5 and 6, the N, Q, R and W, and the L. The building entrance is on Union Square West between 16th and 17th, and the suite is on the fifth floor with elevator access. The Union Square Greenmarket, plenty of cafés and a pharmacy are all within a block, which gives clients somewhere to go if they arrive early.

Standard access hours are 9am–8pm Monday to Friday and 10am–6pm at weekends. Bookings outside those windows can sometimes be arranged — ask.

Practitioner questions

Is there a minimum commitment?

No. You can book a single hour. There is no membership fee and no long-term lease.

Can I bring my own products and equipment?

Yes, within the equipment policy for your modality. Linens, hot towels and the heated spa bed are provided.
