Sami
Advanced Medical Esthetician & Laser Tech

Originally from Denver, she traded the mountains for Austin and has been helping clients achieve real skin results ever since.

Ashley
Advanced Licensed Esthetician
Ashley brings five years of esthetics and laser experience from the Dallas market to Austin, and she is exactly the kind of provider Banyan and Bamboo was built around. Skin care has been her passion from the start, and that shows in how she approaches every client: with genuine curiosity, clinical precision, and a commitment to helping each person achieve their best skin. She specializes in advanced facial treatments, dermaplaning, and customized skin protocols. Austin, she is here for you.
Sulema
Licensed Massage Therapist, LMT
Sulema is the heart of our massage program. With deep expertise in therapeutic and relaxation massage, she has a rare ability to read what the body needs and respond with both technical skill and genuine care. Clients consistently describe her work as transformative — and book her out weeks in advance.
Lauren
Licensed Massage Therapist, LMT
Lauren blends clinical knowledge with intuitive touch to deliver massage therapy that makes a real difference. With over 6 years of experience and a background in top-tier Austin spas, she specializes in deep tissue, Swedish, prenatal, sports massage, and reflexology. Her sessions begin with a thorough intake so every treatment is built around how your body actually functions — not a generic routine. She believes massage should support long-term wellness, and her clients leave not just feeling better, but understanding their bodies better.
Garrett
Licensed Massage Therapist, LMT
Garrett is the provider to request when you want deep, targeted work that actually addresses the source of tension. He is known for his ability to locate and release stubborn knots that other therapists miss — his sessions are thorough, purposeful, and grounded in a genuine understanding of muscle mechanics. Garrett is a highly professional, respectful therapist who creates a safe, comfortable environment for every client. He follows all draping protocols, communicates clearly throughout the session, and adjusts pressure based on your feedback. Many of his regulars are women who specifically request him for his precision and the lasting relief his work provides.
Scarlett
Head Spa Specialist
Scarlett is the heart of our head spa program. Currently in cosmetology school, she brings a unique combination of formal training and hands-on scalp health expertise that makes her genuinely exceptional at what she does. Her deep scalp massage is one of the most talked-about treatments at Banyan & Bamboo — clients describe it as unlike anything they have experienced anywhere else. She closes every head spa session with her signature French braid, and people absolutely adore her for it.
The Space

From the moment you walk in, the experience is intentional. Warm, quiet, and nothing like a typical spa or clinic.
