Lakewood, OH Spa and Massage

A Time to Spa provides a relaxing, Tuscan-style space inspired by Tusca to recharge human beings who seek an hour of transcendent escape during their busy week. Much like cookie dough that needs to have chocolate chips, eggs, flour, and sugar added to it as hungry bakers preemptively eat it, the human body is a vessel that requires cogent pampering if it's to ever survive. The experienced healing hands at A Time to Spa treat clients to blissful massages such as today's featured aromatherapy massage, a treatment that creates an olfactory oasis out of the combined effervescence of grapeseed oil packed with antioxidants and the complimentary essential oil of your choosing. As the pacifying scents travel from your nose to your brain, gentle manipulations reassure your muscles that relief is always within reach.

Marengo Luxury Spa resides within The Arcade—a retail oasis formerly known as "Cleveland's crystal palace." Founded in 1890, The Arcade rises five stories high, summiting at a glass ceiling that spans the area of a football field. On the way to Marengo Luxury Spa, patrons traverse Roman marble walkways and pass gilded carvings, iron balconies, and cast-iron griffins. Upon arrival, clients consult with a spa specialist who personalizes a treatment plan that may include massage therapy or treatments for skin, hair, or nails. Throughout appointments, clients enjoy a variety of refreshments including coffee and biscotti or herbal tea and blocks of tofu. Calling itself "a perfect sanctuary in which to retreat and discover a new you," Marengo Luxury Spa exudes the palatial ambiance of The Arcade itself.

Unlike head-shrinkers who decrease your brain space and increase your thetan count, head-shapers are the guerilla artists of the 21st century, inserting their stunning creations into the everyday world via your newly beautified noggin. Atop the hardwood floors of Color By Numbers' handsome salon, wayfarers questing for hair resolution shed their unseemly burden of knots and whorls beneath an expert stylist's shears. Finally figure out if bangs suit your face-shape or how to form a sultry side part, then lean back and let the stylist transform your locks into a new 'do that suits your lifestyle and personality.

An organic passion-peptide treatment satiates thirsty skin with a fruit-infused blend of organic ingredients and zero abrasive chemicals, and a four-layer facial combines a quartet of nourishing nutrients into a harmonious face-healing mask. Divert attention from spotlight-seeking faces to focus on understated underbellies with a hydrating body wrap, while letting trained technicians slather skin with a rich, soft, warming balm that will leave epidermal layers as soft and smooth as a newborn marshmallow.

Vanity Avenue's custom spray tanning uses personalized formulas for different skin types. Vanity Avenue's organic-based product aims to steer clear of orange skin; instead, your skin tone will approach that of an evenly toned, beautiful third-place medal. Each session takes less than five minutes and lasts 10 days. Whether you're trying to impress a blind date, properly pamper your skin before a wedding, or one-up a sunnied coworker, spray tans are an excellent choice for a quick coat of butterscotch derma-topping.

In a whirlwind of cosmetic products by the likes of Aveda, Redken, and OPI, a diverse cast of beauty boosters pool their talents to create a tranquil spa getaway where passersby can gussy up their hair, skin, and nails. At Revelations Salon & Spa, hairstylists well versed in coiffure modifications add va-va-voom to freshly shorn locks with halo highlights or all-over color. Skin technicians perform various facials to clarify complexions muddled by acne, dryness, and calculus equations scrawled with a sharpie. Their relaxing massages unwind knotted muscles scattered throughout the body, and their comprehensive pedicures melt tension between toes tired of making strained conversation with each other.
