Minnetonka, MN Spa and Massage

Certified-organic fruits, vegetables, and dairy products infuse the naturally derived skin- and haircare products used at Salon Premiere with beauty-bolstering nutrients. Lactic peels made from organic cow's milk and exfoliants derived from rose hips slough off dead cells during many skincare treatments, and ammonia-free hair color with a yogurt base infuses follicles with vitamins, minerals, and calcium as it tints.

Le Joy Rothe believes in practicing a holistic wellness philosophy at her spa, where makeup artistry and body wraps meet the healing properties of reiki and aromatherapy. Devoted to nature-based products, the certified aromatherapist calls upon an exhaustive supply of fragrances so guests can tone their skin, find relief from headaches, and foil canine detectives. A boutique furbishes home collections with relaxing treatments that pamper clients outside the spa.

Though each of Sanctuary Salonspa's four locations offers more than 100 services, clients should not feel overwhelmed. That's because the salon's stylists and aestheticians help clients to determine which treatments they need most. The staffers may recommend an Aveda hair treatment to restore balance to frizzy hair and dry scalps with essential oils. Or they might point to one of Sanctuary's eight facials, each of which are customized to the client's skin type to ensure the complexion shines brighter than a glowworm walking away from an explosion in slow motion. Clients can also enjoy eight types of massage, applications of a gel polish that resists chipping for up to 10 days, and a detoxifying body treatment that consists of a seaweed mask and a steam treatment.

At Premier Life Massage, the team members are not interested in temporary fixes when it comes to their patients’ health. Through their treatments, they strive to relieve pain with long-term holistic solutions, whether they are realigning the spine with chiropractic adjustments, kneading muscles with various massage styles, or facilitating systemic well-being with nutrition programs. Massages can be tailored based on an initial 10-minute, one-on-one consultation with a doctor. Patients can also work with Dr. Lance Stromberg, D.C., who may recommend x-rays and a posture assessment to improve on their next massage–techniques much less insulting than asking the patient if he or she has ever starred in The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
