Our Story
At Essential Massage and Spa Therapies, we are proud to have been serving the Taos community for 23 years with a caring and professional touch. Our mission is to provide exceptional massage therapy and spa treatments that promote relaxation, rejuvenation, and overall well-being.
Our Services
We offer a range of therapeutic massage therapies, including Swedish massage, sports massage, deep tissue massage, and prenatal massage. Our licensed massage therapists are trained in various modalities and can provide firm to medium deep pressure. We use lotion for better skin hydration and all of our massage tables have the amethyst Biomat, which radiates infrared warmth and negative ion therapy for deep healing.
Reflexology
We also offer foot reflexology, a therapeutic practice that uses specific points on the feet that correspond to different organs and systems within the body. Our certified reflexologist, Lea Wildflower, uses gentle to firm pressure to apply pressure to specific points on the feet, promoting relaxation, improved circulation, and the release of tension.
Our Staff
Our staff of licensed massage therapists are trained in various modalities and all can provide firm to medium deep pressure. Some therapists also offer deep tissue massage. We have a team of experienced and skilled therapists who are dedicated to providing exceptional service and care to our clients.
