Local spas offer relaxing gift ideas for Valentine's Day
A look at some of the local salons offering deals this Valentine's Day and through the month of February.
Posted — UpdatedHere's a roundup of some of the local spas offers Valentine specials (Note: Many of these specials are available all month, so just call the spa to book to get a gift card):
They divide the year into quarters and each has a theme. We are in the middle of "Calm," which means services are geared in that direction to help you relax and chill out to start the year. They even offer a special infused water in the quiet room each quarter. Now, it is cucumber-basil - really good!
Their Valentine's Day specials include facials and massages bundled with a gift:
- Always Package ($95) - Facial and massage sampler (30 minutes) - facial cleansing, toning, treatment mask, and moisturizer. During facial, guest get a neck and shoulder massage and paraffin wrap for feet. You also get 2 oz. bottles of Healing Waters bubble bath and massage oil to take home. This package offers a great value for someone just wanting to get a taste of the spa life without taking up the entire day or breaking the bank. They offer Pure MD Skin facials, which use an exclusive, nearly medical-grade line of products. Estheticians tailor the facial to your skin, so it really is a custom treatment each time. April, my esthetician, used this great pomegranate exfoliant on my combo skin.
- Forever Package ($195) - River Rock Warm Stone Massage (90 minutes), Younger Hands Treatment and 8 oz. bottles of the massage and bubble bath to take home. I tried out this massage and can attest to you that it is truly relaxing. Just make sure that you tell your masseuse if the stones are too hot or if you get too hot under the sheets. The stones raise your core temperature.
- Additional tip: Treatments all start with a rosemary-scented foot bath in the quiet room. Grab a cup of tea and some snacks and just relax by the fire.
Here are the specials they are running for Valentine's Day:
- Hot Mint-Chocolate Couples Massage ($190) - This 50 minute treatment starts with a warmed chocolate oil massage. After being wrapped in hot towels, you get a nice mint lotion massage onto your feet.
- Chocolate and Hot Stone Pedicure ($60) - They massage your feet with a blend of cocoa and nourishing minerals.
- Champagne and Chocolate Covered Strawberries Facial ($95) - Antioxidant strawberries help exfoliate and brighten the skin, then a champagne toner helps moisturize and soothe. It's all followed by a chocolate mousse masque. Our problem would be trying not to eat this!
- Just the Two of Us package ($400) - For two, includes a hot mint-chocolate couples massage, milk and honey pedicure and Muditation. Who doesn't need a little mud in their lives, right??
- Love is in the Air ($290) - Champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries facial, peppermint patty massage and milk and honey pedicure. My problem would be trying to not eat this while they are putting it on my face!
