The Evolution of Massage Therapy
The Evolution of Massage Therapy
As In Style Magazine’s Polly Blitzer noted, “If you really want to melt away tight muscles and tension, why settle for a routine rubdown? Today’s high-end massages feature as many luxe extras as a fancy sportscar—think multiple therapists, pulsating water jets, heated pools and soothing hot stones. And did we mention time? Many of these shamelessly decadent treatments last for two dizzyingly blissful hours.”
The Spa Space Butter Stone Therapy Massage, an upgrade on our Hot Stone Therapy Massage, made the magazine’s list of “smartest splurges.” But you can decide for yourself. Which of our massage therapies makes it to the top of your list?
There’s our Space Ritual. It’s our most popular specialty massage and it blends the best of Spa Space’s offerings, incorporating elements of Deep Tissue, Swedish, Reflexology, Aromatherapy, Heated Stone Therapy, and Indian Head Massage. This full-body session provides therapeutic muscular relief while incorporating extra touches to deepen your relaxation. It’s the perfect selection for a gift or if you’re having trouble deciding which massage to try.
Our “Head to Toe” Massage includes 30-minutes of Indian Head Massage (scalp, neck and shoulders), 30-minutes of Signature Massage (see below) and 30-minutes of Reflexology (feet and hands). You can even add therapeutic-grade aromatherapy.
The Melt was developed to melt away knots and stress. It’s an extended massage session that includes 60 minutes of Hot Stone Massage, 15 minutes of Indian Head massage, plus an aromatherapy upgrade. We’ll even send you home with a bottle of the aromatherapy you choose for your service.
For our Signature Massage, we invite you to consult with your therapist prior to your session to design a treatment that best suits your preferences and needs, whether it’s Swedish, Deep Tissue, or Sports, or some combination of the three.
The Chicago Tribune picked our Indian Head Massage, inspired by an ancient Eastern treatment that concentrates on your head, face, neck and shoulders.
And the list goes on!
