Madison Salon & Spa's multitalented team of beauty experts coddles façades with 55-minute signature facials performed in private treatment rooms. Raising client concerns on a pedestal, the skin sultans mold sessions to combat individual imperfections, attacking from all angles like a doberman chasing a bouncing dodecahedron. Deep cleansing lures debris to the surface before technicians coax youthful splendor from complexions with hydrating remedies. Throughout the session, candles cast a soft glow across treatment rooms, which branch off from a space drenched in honey-tinted light inspired by bees' in-hive meditation chambers.

Amethyst Rose's one-hour facial uses organic Eminence skincare products to deep clean pores, exfoliate dead cells, smooth fine lines, and water dry patches until they sprout fresh dandelions. An expert aesthetician will focus on your skin's unique issues until any and all problems are smoothed, softened, and glowing with healthy stimulation. While your body's PR department is being perfected, booties will warm your appendages and one of Amethyst Rose's friendly therapists will massage your head, neck, arms, hands, and feet.

Inner Balance's massage rooms use light and music to create a calm atmosphere, while heated massage tables warm stressed soul sacks from crust to core. During your 60-minute Swedish massage, one of Inner Balance's licensed therapists will alternate between moderate and soft kneading pressure to stimulate circulation and melt muscular tension like ice cream in the sun. After your torso is tension free, your countenance will be cleansed and exfoliated by a facial that uses Pevonia Botanica organic skincare products. This facial evens any skin type's tone while healthifying and rejuvifying it. To complete your relaxation vacation, one of Inner Balance's expert aestheticians will lather on an eye collagen mask, which can tighten the skin, improve its elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Call ahead to schedule your beautifying beautyventure.

Stony Brook native Michael Gallagher, DC, gives back to the community that nurtured him since childhood with soothing and therapeutic physical treatments. Gallagher's only sustained absence was in the mid 1990s, when he pursued his Doctor of Chiropractic from Life University in Marietta, Georgia. Empowered by a career he chose as an expression of public service, the new doctor immediately returned to Long Island to share his expertise in physical rehabilitation and chiropractic care. Dr. Gallagher opened North Country Health Spa in 2007, deepening his community ties via friendship bracelets lashed to the bedrock while branching out into other holistic therapies and pampering treatments for skin and muscles.

Today, the doctor betters himself with continuing education and has earned a certification in biomechanical injury treatment that complements the treatment and training he does for athletes at Stony Brook University and several other colleges. Dr. Gallagher's two kids keep him invested in the Three Village school district, and his telltale ticker reminds him to give generously to the American Heart Association
