Body Treatments:
We do not recommend body wraps for anyone with high or low blood pressure. We also may ask you to bring in a doctors perscription for any one of our spa services.
We perform all services on ages 18 years and older.
We reserve all spa appointments with a credit card reservation. We will give you more details upon booking your appointments. There is a 25% customer service charge on all couples/group bookings. This does include gratuity.
It is in your own best interest to disclose medication and health issues with your therapist. Your health influences the way your body responds to treatment. We do not perform any of our massage services on women while they are pregnant.
You may be asking yourself why almost all spas offer some form of seaweed? Because certain seaweeds are a naturally occurring powerhouse of vitamins, minerals and trace elements found nowhere else in nature. It's true; nothing has surpassed seaweeds' success in facilitating detoxification of the tissues. But, if that odiferous aspect of the treatment doesn't appeal to you just let your therapist know and we can intervene with Mother Nature's other arsenal — Aromatherapy.
Hydrating facts:
- Our bodies consist of 70% water.
- The epidermis should contain about 15% water.
- Causes of dehydration are: poor diet, insufficient water consumption, aging, harsh climates, UV exposure and pollution.
- It is recommended that the average adult (154 lbs.) consume 2 liters of water per day, but the reality of average consumption is only 1.2 liter/day.
- Few people actually achieve a balanced diet. Many studies have shown repeatedly that 80% of Americans are not getting the Recommended Daily Allowances (RDAs) of minerals in their diets.

Dr. Christiane Northrup's HEALTH WISDOM for women.
Volume 6, no. 4 April 1999
Dear Reader,
At a recent meeting on alternative medicine sponsored by Harvard Medical School, I had the pleasure of hearing researcher Dr. Tiffany Field present her amazing research on the benefits of massage--my all-time favorite way to create health. In one study, pregnant women who received two massages per week experienced a significantly decreased risk of premature labor compared to those who didn't receive massage. The massaged group had a prematurity rate of only one percent compared to an expected rate of 12 percent. Women with breast cancer who received regular massage enjoyed a dramatic rise in their natural killer cell activity, a measure of the immune system's ability to fight tumor cells.
The healing power of touch known since ancient times is now being scientifically validated. If you haven't already incorporated massage into your life, I urge you to do so.
