Beauty & Spas in Greece

Shortly after earning his license to practice massage therapy, Todd DeKramer started working in a chiropractic clinic—an experience that would eventually lead to his specialization in pain management. Todd had been interested in the field since his days as a pitcher for Monmouth University, where he gained a firsthand understanding of athletic injuries and was introduced to some of the same sports-therapy treatments that he practices today.

As the therapist behind Rochester On-Site Massage, Todd travels to locations throughout the city to alleviate aches with onsite chair massages that begin with relaxing Swedish strokes and culminate in quick kneads. His couples massage classes teach pairs to solve their differences with relaxing strokes or firm—perhaps too firm—deep-tissue pressure.

Euphoria Nails & Spa's technicians maintain immaculate service stations, but the cozy feel of plush carpeting in the manicure and waiting area adds a hint of hominess to the pervasively clean environment. The front room even has a mini palm tree and flip-flops all over the wall, remnants of Spider-Man's vacations at this spa. High-backed new leather massaging pedicure chairs loom over a slick hardwood floor in the pedicure room, which showcases colorful artwork on soft pink and gray walls. Beyond the pedicure area, a cluster of private rooms offers a quiet refuge for aestheticians to perform European facials and a host of waxing services.

As the head instructor at Murray's Martial Arts Centers and a runner of grueling endurance races, Dave Gucker is intimately acquainted with muscle pain. At his massage-therapy practice, he soothes aches and pains of every caliber with tailored treatments. Swedish massage targets areas that typically harbor stress, such as the shoulders or the left hand that can never live up to the standard set by its right brother. For guests recovering from a bodily trauma, the injury-repair massage can stimulate blood flow to speed the healing process. Gucker also educates his patients on stretches and rehabilitative exercises that can help prevent aches and pains in the future.

Even after 20 years of industry experience, the seasoned nail techs at Tina Marie Salon & Boutique continue to hone their craft though continuing education and by soliciting client feedback. Through these channels, they keep a perfectly painted finger on the pulse of trending manicure and pedicure products, including OPI gel polishes that retain their sheen for two weeks. Marie Salon & Boutique uses products such as Qtica spa products and Keune hair products to keep customers looking their best. Staff members, who are well versed in the longstanding feud between fingernails and hair stubble, also use wax away surface-stippling fuzz from grateful follicles. Makeup application beautifies visages, haircuts transform heads into works of art, and spray tanning darkens epidermises for a healthy glow.

Newly opened Charming Salon & Spa serves as an oasis away from stress by treating clients to pampering beautifying services. Aestheticians lather façades with rejuvenating, cleansing products during signature facials, or stylists snip locks and twist strands into fashionable curls. As digits repose in an indulgent soak, a skilled staffer eases tension from the muscles in the face, neck, and shoulders with a relaxing massage and convincing argument about why every day should be Friday.

Drenched in marigold tones, the Sun Tan City facility transforms exteriors with cosmetic treatments that harness different wavelengths of light. Smart Tan–certified professionals invite clients to lie down, stand up, or sit down to bask in bronzing rays and tanning sprays. The staff also whitens teeth with LED light during Beaming White treatments, and slims bodies or out-of-shape sports cars with infrared light during Fit body wraps.
