Services
Swedish Massage
This foundational technique uses long, flowing strokes to promote relaxation and improve circulation. Ideal for stress relief and general wellness, it addresses muscle tension through kneading and rhythmic movements. Our therapists customize pressure levels to suit individual needs while maintaining proper draping for comfort.
Deep Tissue Massage
Targeting deeper muscle layers, this modality addresses chronic pain and postural issues through focused pressure techniques. Therapists work on specific areas like neck, shoulders, and back to release tension and improve mobility. Sessions incorporate myofascial release and trigger point therapy for lasting pain relief.
Hot Stone Massage
Smooth, heated basalt stones are used to warm muscles before manual techniques begin. The combination of heat therapy and massage promotes deep relaxation while addressing muscle stiffness and circulation issues. Stones are strategically placed on energy points for enhanced therapeutic effects.
Facial Treatments
Customized facials address individual skin concerns using professional-grade products from Dermalogica and 302 Professional Skincare. Treatments include cleansing, exfoliation, and targeted serums to improve skin texture and address specific conditions. Sessions range from 25 to 90 minutes with optional enhancements like peels.
Spa Club Membership
Monthly membership plans offer recurring massage or facial sessions with additional benefits. Members receive discounts on retail products, exclusive steam room access, and flexible scheduling options.
