Coeur d'Alene, ID Spa and Massage

The staff at Vida Salon and Spa strives to create an atmosphere that rejuvenates body and mind. Their focus on relaxation and a wide variety of services has earned them nominations for Best Day Spa and Best Hair Salon in CityVoter's Best of Spokane 2010 awards and a win for Best Hair Company - Women by Inland Business Catalyst Magazine. Patrons can listen to the gentle trickling of an elegant stone fountain while stylists transform hair with products such as L'Oréal Professionnel's ammonia-free INOA color. Skincare experts use the Dermalogica line for a variety of anti-aging facials, and massage therapists ease muscle tension with heated stones.

Nail technicians beautify toes in the pedicure area, which is decorated in cheerful pink and orange tones. Stone tiled floors and stately pillars create an Old World European ambiance reminiscent of the Florentine spa where staffers cleared bits of marble and paint from Michelangelo's fingertips.

Iain Finnigan has two notable talents on display at his Healing Arts Integrated Massage. First, he reduces chronic pain and tension as his nimble fingers knead into muscles and glide over the skin. Secondly, he calms the mind and delivers peace with serene paintings that depict calm figures in cool color palettes. Finnigan also uses his talents to benefit charity with Massage for the Cause, a nonprofit branch of Healing Arts that donates onsite chair massage to help raise money for local causes at fundraisers, events, and thumb-war tournaments.
