There’s something special about Oak Street.
With its canopy of mature oak trees, locally owned boutiques, cafés and neighborhood businesses, Oak Street has become one of Riverside’s most charming destinations. It’s that sense of community that inspired longtime aesthetician Kathy Brooks to relocate Kathy Brooks Aesthetics to the historic district.
After nearly 18 years of serving clients throughout Northeast Florida, Brooks recently opened the doors to a newly renovated spa designed to offer a quiet retreat from the pace of everyday life. The inviting space combines advanced skincare and wellness services with a warm, comfortable atmosphere that reflects the character of the surrounding neighborhood.
“I fell in love with Oak Street the moment I found this location,” Brooks said. “It has such a welcoming, small-town feel right in the middle of Jacksonville. I’m excited to serve not only my longtime clients but also my new neighbors who live and work here.”
The appointment-only spa offers a variety of personalized treatments, including HydraFacial®, customized facials, microchanneling, dermaplaning, chemical peels, therapeutic massage, Head Spa experiences, Keravive scalp treatments, and lash lift and tint services.
With her exclusive, monthly membership programs through The Skin Society, Brooks offers clients tiered options to achieve and maintain healthy skin through consistency.
The Wellness+ Plan ($179/month) offers a monthly HydraFacial that can be gifted to a friend or family member if the client is unable to use it. This tier also provides exclusive club pricing on additional enhancements. The Platinum+ Plan ($245/month) includes the monthly HydraFacial, but also incorporates lymphatic drainage, LED light therapy, and an enhancement booster, making this membership a more corrective option than the Wellness+ Plan.
New to this location are two additional memberships: the Root Ritual ($299/month), which provides a monthly Keravive scalp treatment with a peptide spray offered at a discounted rate, and the Radiance Ritual ($289/month), which alternates microchanneling and a HydraFacial every month.
Members also get priority booking when it comes to making their appointments.
“When you’re a member with me, you’re high priority for booking, and I go out of my way to make sure that you’re getting what you need,” Brooks said. “I do my best to get the time slot that you want, even if I come in on a day that I’m not working.”
In addition to individual appointments, Kathy Brooks Aesthetics also hosts private spa parties for birthdays, bridal celebrations, girls’ days, corporate wellness gatherings, and other special occasions, providing groups with a relaxing way to celebrate together.
With two private parties under her belt already, Brooks looks forward to booking more for groups.
For Brooks, the move represents more than a change of address.
“One of the things I love most about this neighborhood is how people genuinely support one another,” she said. “As a small business owner, it’s an honor to become part of the Oak Street community. I hope our spa becomes a place where neighbors can take a break from their busy lives, relax, and leave feeling refreshed.”
Brooks said she looks forward to building lasting relationships with the Riverside community while continuing to provide personalized care in a welcoming environment.
Located on historic Oak Street in Riverside, Kathy Brooks Aesthetics welcomes clients by appointment and looks forward to serving the neighborhood for years to come.
