BODY
Whether from work-related tension or the stress of daily activities, our muscles are often clenched, knotted and stiff. This can in turn affect our physical and emotional well-being. Massage is performed to relieve stress and improve day-to-day performance by relaxing muscles, stimulating circulation and promoting a refreshed, rejuvenated mood. A trained therapist applies pressure to the tense area or areas using a variety of techniques from around the world, often supplemented with aromatic oils, moisturizers, exfoliants or heated stones. Commonly massaged areas include the face, scalp, shoulders, back, arms, legs, hands and feet. Massage can also be highly effective for the relief of pain associated with cancer, TMJ, carpal tunnel syndrome, migraine, arthritis, pregnancy, athletic injury, and other medical conditions.
Our body treatments are tailored to each individual client and concentrates on their particular needs and concerns. We invite you to arrive early for a cup of calming tea or enjoy a vitalizing herbal elixir as you prepare for a relaxing and beautiful experience of touch. We encourage our clients to apply massage and body treatments for increased circulation, skin tone improvement, and muscle relaxation. All of our massages are done on a heated table along with soft music and are finished with a steam hot towel to remove excess oil. Therapists may use one or a combination of several modalities depending on your needs, including Lypossage, Neuromuscular, Lymphatic, Pre/Post-Natal, and Deep Tissue massage.
Apothecary’s organic, custom-formulated body treatments are so popular because they are designed to be relaxing as well as restorative. They exfoliate, detoxify, nourish and hydrate, improving the tone and texture of the skin. Plan to take advantage of one or more at the beginning of each new season to keep your skin healthy and glowing. You will be modestly covered at all times during your treatment. Though not necessary, women may wear swimwear or undergarments if preferred. Men are asked to wear swimwear.
Spa Body Treatments take place in cozy, private spa suites equipped with your own personal shower, tension-melting heated tables, the softest cotton linens, and peaceful soothing music. We also provide a robe and sandals for your comfort.
