Spa Treatments for the Body
Just as the face does, the body shows wear and tear from stress, sun, and environment.
Our protocols offer advanced aromatherapy-based body treatments that refresh and renew. Our body treatments boost skin fitness, for smooth, silken, shimmering skin.
Administered by licensed estheticians, our body scrubs, anti-oxidant treatments, and hydrating wraps are medically sound.
If your skin's not in top shape, a back facial may be called for.
Our estheticians are expert as well in brow shaping and brow and lash extensions.

Back Facial The back facial follows the same basic layout as a traditional facial. First, back skin is cleansed and exfoliated. Next, impurities and imperfections are extracted from beneath the skin’s surface, followed by a mask. Finally, the back is moisturized to restore nutrients and hydrate. Also included is a neck, shoulder and back massage to compliment this restorative treatment.

Winter Melon Massage As your body sinks deep into a cushy massage table,Soon, you will smell citrus, with hints of butter. The aroma is actually melon (which Costa purchases by the armload in Chinatown), and by the time it penetrates your nasal passages, it's mixed with something else "natural oils," and puréed into a sort of fruit frosting, which is kneaded deep into my muscles. Theoretically, this will wash away four very stressful months from the pages of your body's history, not to mention the extra luxurious moisturizing properties for your skin. Melon or no melon, the treatment is a gentle, enveloping massage with cranio-sacral (that means "head and neck") touches. The overall effect is of a laser strike against winter blues — a happy bombardment of pleasure. |
