Services
Massage Therapy
Customized massage experiences combine Swedish, deep tissue, and prenatal techniques with aromatherapy. Practitioners use heated basalt stones and proprietary blends to address muscle tension, chronic pain, and stress. Each session incorporates client preferences for pressure and focus areas to optimize therapeutic benefits.
Signature Facials
Seasonal facials utilize locally sourced botanicals and essential oils in steam, exfoliation, and mask applications. Treatments address specific skin concerns like hyperpigmentation and congestion while promoting lymphatic drainage. The 90-minute ritual includes warm herbal poultices for enhanced circulation and nervous system calming.
Body Care Treatments
Exfoliating scrubs with maple sugar and coffee grounds remove dead skin cells while stimulating circulation. Detox wraps use grape seed and oat blends to draw out impurities. All treatments include hydrating body butter applications and lymphatic drainage massage techniques to support immune function.
Reiki Healing
Certified practitioners channel universal life force energy through gentle touch to balance physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. This non-invasive treatment reduces stress, improves sleep quality, and enhances the body's natural healing processes through meridian work and chakra alignment.
Seasonal Packages
Curated experiences combine multiple treatments with lodging options at partner properties. Packages include dining credits, priority booking access, and seasonal amenities like the Garden of Light scent therapy during summer months for holistic wellness immersion.
