Seasonal Spa Therapies
March Spa Therapies
Green Tea Pedicure
Clinical evidence suggests that green tea extract is packed naturally with rich antioxidants that help protect the body from free radicals. Free radicals can accelerate the aging process and dehydrate skin. Steep out tension with a Green tea-infused soak and slough off leaves of dried skin. Infuse your lower legs and feet with a cooling cucumber leg mask through a moisturizing massage. A therapist will buff and shape nails before applying polish color. • $70*
Rosemary Sage Salt Scrub
An intoxicating blend of sea salt, rosemary and sage into essential oils gently scrub the skin’s surface to refine pores. A massage application of rosemary body butter helps relieve allergy and respiratory congestion. Breathe deep again. • $140*
April Spa Therapies
Purifying Papaya Cranberry Pedicure
Soak feet in an antioxidant-rich cranberry-infused bath to ease stiffness and help soothe aching feet. An exfoliating scrub buffs rigid skin preparing lower legs for a penetrating papaya enzyme leg mask. Treatment includes a nail buff and polish for perfect papaya-scented toes. • $70*
Purifying Papaya Body Wrap
Breathe in life from the tropics as you’re whisked away on a neck and shoulder massage excursion. Surrender to your senses as active enzymes of papaya are introduced through a steamed linen body wrap and stresses steep outwards with a scalp and foot massage. Reinvigorate with an awakening application of citrus body balm. Aloha.• $140*
May Spa Therapies
Mandarin Pedicure
Let the uplifting scent of mandarin transport you to a land of wonder and tranquility as feet exfoliate in a tension-relieving soak. Bask in a moisturizing lower leg mandarin mask before an invigorating citrus massage hydrates, brightens and tones skin. Pick a juicy color for shaped
and buffed nails. • $70*
Yellow Rose of Texas Detox Body Wrap
Be the “sweetest little rosebud that Texas knew.” Roses need a nutrient rich foundation. Re-mineralize with a lush volcanic mud wrap to absorb toxins and exfoliate dry winter skin. Relax as scalp and foot massage provides tender loving care. Take time to smell the sweet essence from a moisterizing application of soothing orange blossom body cream. • $140*
*These therapies are seasonal and are only available during the specified month. Gratuity not included. Restrictions may apply.
