OUR MASSAGES
Massage
: Come enjoy the personal attention you will receive from our Licensed
Massage Therapists. Whether you choose a Swedish, Therapeutic, Sports massage,
or a Tune Up, you will leave feeling relaxed. Our Massage Therapists will greet you,
and discuss the type of massage that will be best for you. Then you will relax in one
of our massage rooms with soft music and de-stress. After your first massage you
won't want to wait too long for the next.

Swedish Massage:
You will be exhilarated and relaxed after a Swedish massage. This is
the most widely practiced form of massage. Systematic stroking, kneading and pressing
of the body's soft tissue will leave your body feeling great. You will want to schedule
your next appointment immediately.

Therapeutic Massage:
This massage is sometimes referred to as deep tissue or
trigger point. This type of massage can help alleviate problematic conditions such as
muscular tension, aches, muscular back pain, poor circulation, and stress. Utilizing
a variety of techniques, the therapist can help problem areas return to optimal
function.

Sports Massage:
If your muscles are tight from working out try a sports massage.
Sports massage is a combination of Swedish techniques, pressure points and range of
motion. Its main goal is to increase flexibility, reduce possible injury to the muscles,
and improve performance.

Tune Up Massage:
For those in a hurry we offer "The Tune Up". Spend 20 minutes in
a massage chair in quiet, relaxing room. While sitting fully clothed on a special
chair, you leave with what feels like a breath of fresh air. Come jump start your day.

Facials:
Come experience a refreshing facial. Our estheticians are trained in the
latest techniques and we use the finest product on your skin. A facial deep cleanses
your skin, hydrates and purifies to leave your skin feeling silky and smooth. You will
leave feeling rejuvenated and your skin will be visibly renewed with moisture and an
afterglow that lasts. Your skin will be cleaner, healthier, and radiant.

Nail Care:
Our nail technicians take the utmost care to satisfy your needs whether
you receive a manicure or a pedicure. Many people have come to appreciate the
benefits of receiving a regular manicure. A manicure can help dry brittle hands and
bring nails back to life. Our manicures consist of shaping the nails, treating your
cuticles and a salt glow treatment. We finish with a polish of your choice to
show off your beautiful nails.Men and women come to relax their tired feet in a
bubbly foot soak with our pedicures.

After the soak we will slough away dry, cracked skin, smooth the bottoms, trim and shape
your toenails, massage your feet and complete the treatment with polish application.Paraffin
Wax treatments are also available, just ask your technician.

Waxing:
Our estheticians use a warm wax to remove unwanted hair. Unwanted hair
on your face, brows, lip, chin, neck, arms, under arms, tummy, bikini, inner thigh,
half and full leg and toes can be waxed. The results are so rewarding.
