December 2008

  • With the economy in a state of disarray, it’s hard to feel good about treating yourself to a facial, massage or even a pedicure. But while being frugal might be good for the wallet, it’s definitely not good for relaxation or beautification. So, why not have your fruitcake and eat it, too?

    Book any 50-minute massage and 50 minute facial package at this urban oasis and receive your choice of two Spa Luce signature products ($48 Value). Try the 50 minute Deep Detox Facial perfect for inflamed or congested skin or the MDT5 Vitamin Facial full of six highly engineered vitamins to deliver results – so coveted, it’s used by modeling agencies the world over. And pair any amazing facial with a Swedish, deep tissue or hot stone massage for a true luxe escape at Luce. (Product suggestion for your free pick, Chocolate Sun Sunless Tanning Cream.)

    Sheer Serenity Body Wrap and Massage

    If dogs barking, kids screaming and holiday chores are overwhelming you with every breath, then consider this the antidote. A unique treatment from dtoxspa, this ayurvedic shea butter body wrap combines the therapeutic benefits of Indian-style “champi” massage with a full body application of shea butter, jojoba and flax seed oils. Chakra stones and aromatic essential oils amplify healing benefits as the scalp is massaged to clear blockages, balance the endocrine system and encourage lymph drainage. The Sheer Serenity Body Wrap Special costs $150 but be sure to inquire to confirm December availability or check new monthly specials at  http://www.dtoxdayspa.com.

    If you’ve ever wanted to escape to some far-off distance land full of palaces, castles and theatres, then how about a trip to St. Petersburg? The Voda Spa offers “Fall in St. Petersburg” for those with travel lust and eagerness to go to “Russia” to relax. This special includes a massage with orange spice oil and lotion for 50 minutes, followed by a classic facial with a pumpkin mask. Finish with your choice of Voda Smoothie (total package cost $265). The spa is known for its ode to the international, with Russian, European and Asian style saunas and scrub rooms as well as an emphasis on cocktails and smoothies; check http://www.vodaspa.com for new specials as well as discounts and information on Sunday brunch.
