Spa Etiquette

To keep the serenity of the spa, we ask that you turn off your cellular phone upon arrival. Please present all Gift Cards and promotional coupons at check-in. Please note that your scheduled time is your table time. If you arrive late, you will be charged in full, but we will do our best to accommodate your entire service.

Learn to Relax
Our job is to unwind your muscles, refresh your skin and give you a moment of peace. Relaxing the muscles and settling the mind are a great assist to your therapist. chéta will help free you of any anxiety or unease. Various mind-over-matter techniques like deep breathing and visualization come in handy and help bodywork go deeper. Focusing on one's breath is the essence of meditation, as well as the apex of many forms of exercise. You may not want to plan a strenuous day or host a dinner party for 5 afterward; savor the moment and let the healing sink in.

Eat Lightly
The days preceding your visit can help prepare you mentally and physically for your treatment. Cutting back on (or eliminating) sugar, caffeine and alcohol and hard to digest foods like red meat will prime your system to detoxify with ease. You're also likely to feel lighter, happier about your body and more in tune with yourself. Plus, it increases the likelihood of your "staying clean" afterward, to extend the bliss of your visit and more fully reap its rewards.

Drink Water
It's crucial to drink plenty of it before, during and after your visit. Water hydrates the body's tissues on a cellular level, prompting the system to cleanse itself and function with fluidity. Just as you would want to hydrate before a workout, well-watered muscles (including those of the face) respond better to the activating pressures of massage, allowing the therapist to work more deeply. Sufficient hydration also encourages the removal of toxins. Flushing your system will reward you with compliments on how great your skin looks, how well rested you seem, etc... Drink up!

Please note, no body treatments (massage or hydrotherapy) can be received during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Be sure to inform your therapist if you are using Retin A, accutane, or have had laser surgery.

By massaging the scalp the hair follicles are stimulated and the texture of the hair is also enhanced. Massaging activates the nerves and a sense of calmness in the mind ensues.

(Acne-) Sometimes people who come for massage have acne, and as therapists we know how to address this problem. Generally, we avoid working areas of the body with acne. But when it is scattered over a broad area, such as someone's back, we use a broad tool, such as our forearms, which allows us to deliver adequate pressure to the muscles below without injuring the skin.	Sleep disorder Sleep disorder: All of us have an autonomic nervous system comprised of two parts: the parasympathetic and sympathetic. The parasympathetic balances the sympathetic. When you have a massage, the parasympathetic is activated and thus allows your body to relax. When you are stressed, the sympathetic is activated and you will feel the urge to fight or flight. So if stress and tension are the reasons why you are not sleeping very well, you might be relieved to know that one of the benefits of massage therapy is improved sleep patterns.Some people even fall asleep while having a professional massage.
