East Highland Park, VA Spa and Massage

True to its name, Montage Facials dispenses a montage of eight soothing facial treatments fit for every skin concern. Aestheticians conjure up deep relaxation as they paint faces with enzyme-packed products and light chemical peels to gently exfoliate and renew cells or treat mature skin to Dermalogica Age Smart products. The specialists help teens fight battles against acne and crabby math teachers with a specialized adolescent facial and a discussion about proper skincare and the importance of always showing your work on tests. Once skin is refreshed and replenished, clients can scoot into the waxing parlor and bid adieu to hair on any part of the body.

Master stylist Artricia Balenci has skills. She tends to her clients in a relaxed private salon, where she exhibits an innate knack for gussying up nails, applying makeup, and transforming hair. Not only does Artricia lavish each customer with personalized attention, but she constantly strives to sharpen her skills by furthering her education, harnessing the power of high-quality products from Redken, and begging genies to grant her a third arm.

RVA Massage and Wellness’s staff of certified massage therapists is led by owner Stephanie Quinby, who also serves on the state of Virginia’s Advisory Board on Massage Therapy. Quinby and her staff use a variety of techniques to knead away aches and pains, including therapeutic massage, which can help treat an injury; deep-tissue massage, which can alleviate muscle tightness with intense, localized pressure; and sports massage, which can improve range of motion. The massage therapists believe in the importance of a consultation with every client, as it helps them determine the optimal type of massage.
