What better way to say I love you
this Valentine's Day than with a relaxing, rejuvenating spa treatment? We offer treatments specific to seasons and holidays, and the benefits
of these massage techniques, scrubs, wraps and aromatherapies will give your
loved one something that means more and lasts longer than a stuffed teddy bear
and roses.
Hot Stone Massage
Turn up the heat and the health benefits with this popular massage therapy.
Traditionally done with smooth, water-heated stones, hot stone massages serve
to increase blood flow, relax muscles, relieve stress and even ease chronic
pain. These massages can be done on part or all of the body. The stones are
placed on target areas and left to warm all over. In conjunction with manual
massage, this treatment makes for a soothing, calming Valentine's Day gift.
Aromatherapy
The smell of specific essential oils can have lasting effects on a person. Give
your valentine the gift of relaxation with an aromatherapy massage. For this
happy occasion, oils such as lavender (for calming), frankincense (for deep
breathing and meditation) and bergamot (for mood/anxiety relief) are three
common oils you could choose. In addition to an essential oil massage, there are rooms where the smells of eucalyptus and other refreshing
herbs accompany hot, warm steam.
Chocolate treatments
It wouldn't be Valentine's Day without some serious chocolate goodness.
Luckily, you can skip the candies and go straight to the chocolate body wrap
this year. Chocolate, when ingested and when applied topically can have benefits
for your mind, body and overall health. The caffeine in chocolate helps
stimulate circulation, and chocolate body wraps also serve to moisten, tighten
and detoxify the skin, and the rich aroma can calm the mind.
Sugar scrubs
Keeping with the sweet theme, sugar scrubs are an excellent option for giving
your significant other something that will leave him or her, quite literally,
glowing and refreshed. Sugar scrubs are made up of a variety of different
oils and sugar types, but overall the treatment serves to exfoliate the body
and slough off dry skin. Depending on the oils used these scrubs can also
replenish the skin's moisture, soothe irritated skin, and promote overall
wellness.
Whatever treatment you choose this Valentine's Day, your loved one is sure to
enjoy his or her day at the spa!
