Sometimes excellence speaks for itself, and in the case of The Body Bar, it practically shouts. Best of the Best voting for 2025 may have wrapped up, but we aer looking back to last year and recoginizing this standout wellness destination for their TribLive 2024 Best of the Best wins in both the Spa/Medical Spa and Tanning categories. With locations in Cranberry Township and Pittsburgh’s North Hills, The Body Bar has redefined what clients can expect from their self-care experiences, combining professional expertise with luxurious atmospheres that make every visit feel like a retreat.

Excellence Across Multiple Services

The Body Bar’s double gold achievement last year reflects their comprehensive approach to beauty and wellness. Their Cranberry Township location at 5511 US-19 earned top honors in the Spa/Medical Spa category, while their North Hills Pittsburgh location at 9362 McKnight Rd claimed gold in Tanning services.

This dual recognition showcases a business that has mastered not just one aspect of beauty services, but has created excellence across their entire range of offerings. From advanced skincare treatments to professional tanning services, The Body Bar has consistently delivered experiences that keep clients coming back and recommending them to others.

Influencer Spotlight: Real Results, Real Recognition

The Body Bar’s gold-winning reputation recently caught the attention of local influencer Caitlyn Desiree, who shared her experience with their signature services in an Instagram Reel that perfectly captured why this business earned top honors.

“The Body Bar located in the North Hills won GOLD in Trib Live’s 2024 Best of the Best North,” Desiree noted, before diving into her experience with their sugar glow treatment. She described how the service “left my skin soft, radiant, polished, and ridiculously smooth” with “lavender scrub, warm towels, relaxing atmosphere spa vibes.”

Her enthusiastic “10/10 self-care moment” review demonstrates exactly the kind of client experience that led voters to crown The Body Bar as their gold medal choice. “I just love that TribLive’s Best of the Best is the ultimate local shoutout to highlight so many hard working and incredible businesses right in our city,” Desiree added, capturing the community spirit that makes these awards special.

Competitive Field Showcases Industry Strength

The Body Bar’s double victory came despite strong competition in both categories. In the spa/medical spa field, they outshined quality competitors including silver medalists Body by Design and Known Aesthetics, both of which have built solid reputations serving the region’s wellness needs.

The tanning category saw equally impressive competition, with Tan Factory earning silver recognition and Tropical Touch Tan claiming bronze. This competitive landscape makes The Body Bar’s gold medal achievement even more noteworthy, demonstrating their ability to stand out in a field of established, respected businesses.

The Science of Self-Care

What sets The Body Bar apart isn’t just their range of services, but their attention to creating comprehensive wellness experiences. As Desiree’s review highlighted, their treatments combine effective techniques with atmospheric elements that transform routine beauty services into genuine self-care moments.

The “glow & gold energy” that clients experience reflects The Body Bar’s understanding that true wellness encompasses both physical results and emotional rejuvenation. This holistic approach has clearly resonated with clients across both their locations.

Looking Ahead

The Body Bar is well-positioned to defend their dual titles in 2025. Their track record of consistent excellence and growing social media recognition from satisfied clients like Desiree suggests they’ll remain strong contenders.

The business represents exactly what TribLive’s Best of the Best program celebrates: local businesses that combine professional expertise with genuine care for their community. Their success demonstrates how focusing on client experience and service excellence can build the kind of reputation that earns both customer loyalty and industry recognition.

Visit The Body Bar at either location to experience the gold-standard treatments that have made them the region’s top choice for beauty and wellness services.
