About Dream Spa

Dream Spa has been an Austin institution since 2019, built on a simple belief: a nail and spa appointment should feel as safe as it does luxurious. Under Ashley Strupinska's ownership since 2025, that belief has been elevated with healthcare-level standards at every step.

Owner

Before purchasing Dream Spa, Ashley Strupinska spent years as a registered nurse, specializing in Diabetic Foot Care and Mental Health. Those two areas of nursing share a common thread: the people they serve require exceptional attention to hygiene, safety, and whole-person wellbeing — not as a bonus, but as the baseline.

When Ashley looked at the nail and spa industry, she saw a gap. Most salons treated sanitation as a compliance checkbox. As a nurse who had spent her career in clinical settings where infection prevention is a matter of patient safety, she knew what "clean" actually looked like — and she knew she could bring that standard to Austin.

When she took ownership in 2025, she modernized the spa's protocols from the ground up with her healthcare background at the center: industry-standard sterilization equipment, single-use consumables on every client, EPA-registered disinfectants, and a team trained to the same standards she held herself to in the clinic.

The result is a spa that takes care of the whole client — not just their nails. Whether you're managing a health condition that makes foot care more than cosmetic, or simply want to unwind without wondering what the salon's cleaning routine actually looks like, Dream Spa was built for you.

Diabetic Foot Care

Specialized nursing background in diabetic foot health — translates directly into meticulous, safe pedicure practices for clients with medical considerations.

Mental Health Nursing

Training in mental health care informs the calm, welcoming environment Dream Spa is known for — a place where guests genuinely decompress.

Hospital-Grade Sanitation

Every tool sterilized between clients. Single-use files and buffers. EPA-registered disinfectants. TDLR licensed and regularly inspected.

TDLR Licensed

Fully licensed and regularly inspected by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, meeting or exceeding all state sanitation requirements.

Our Standard

"I built Dream Spa around the same principle I followed in nursing: you don't cut corners on someone's safety. Every client who sits in our chairs deserves to know exactly how their tools were cleaned, what products we're using on their skin, and that the person serving them takes their health seriously. That's not a marketing message — it's just how I was trained to practice."
