Kennesaw, GA Spa and Massage

Owners Mandi Williams and Heather Bowen have placed Spa La Mode at the crossroads of Eastern theology, Western technique, and all-organic products from ilike and glo therapeutics. This last element is most prominent in the spa’s custom facials, which employ masks to fight blemishes and ease wrinkles. Organic yogurt and glycolic peels amplify the effects of each facial, and lash extensions add the finishing touch to newly glowing visages. Aestheticians also banish unwanted bristles by waxing brows, legs, backs, and in cases of accidental ingestion of Rogaine, tongues.

Natural ingredients may be important at Spa Bolena—body treatments make use of seaweed, lavender, roses, or milk and honey—but just as important is the setting in which treatments take place. That's why the spa adapts each of its treatment rooms based on the client's choice of atmosphere, altering the lighting, visuals, and sounds to fit such peaceful themes as meadow, rain forest, or ball pit. As these environs soothe minds, aromatherapy delights noses with scents of sandalwood, lemongrass, and eucalyptus.

Beneath the sheer white fabrics draping the ceiling at Luxury Nails and Spa, technicians pamper bodies with nail services, facials, massages, and waxing. While reclining in a row of plush, multicolored chairs, clients treat feet with sugar scrubs and marine masks until they are as soft and smooth as a puppy quoting the Fonz. Private treatment rooms house a licensed massage therapist who kneads muscles with Swedish techniques and hot stones and aestheticians who cleanse pores with Dermalogica facial products.
