For dozens of years, the Chinese have practiced acupuncture, a healing method that corrects imbalances by stimulating specific points on the body that help energy, or qi, flow smoothly. During every visit, acupuncturists measure your qi pressure, which is similar to measuring your blood pressure except that inflatable thing is placed around your soul. Acupuncture will help reduce your dependence on medication for pain. Plus, after you take all those needles out of your body, you'll finally have a utensil set for those little squares of cheese! On Wellness Clinic's acupuncturist knows acupuncture. It’s what she does. Her oldest patient is 354 years old.

For every color of blouse and all sleeve lengths, there's a cosmetic look that completes the overall aesthetic package. Your private lesson is custom-designed for you and your individual facial structure as you learn how to efficiently and subtly apply makeup while caring for your skin. Arrive at your appointment wearing your everyday makeup and with your kit in tow before consulting with Hillary on your general cosmetic likes and aversions. Then your makeup will be removed and Hillary will beautify one half of your face before guiding you through completing the other half and supplying you with before and after photos of how the style complements your natural appearance.

Amid fluffy white chairs, snowy walls, and ornate chandeliers that create a serene, cloud-like atmosphere, Le Créme’s trained aestheticians work tirelessly to rejuvenate weary bodies. Champions of back-to-nature beauty, the staffers administer treatments using only natural ingredients such as lavender essential oil, sea-salt scrubs, and fresh rose petals plucked from the mouths of local tango dancers. Contented sighs drift from patrons undergoing soothing mani-pedis, rising past gentle tea-tree cream waxes used to whisk away unwanted strands. Between gussying-up sessions, Le Créme’s grooming gurus meticulously disinfect and sanitize each piece of equipment to ensure comfort and safety. A patio outside of the spa enables secluded relaxation bolstered by sprawling vines dripping purple flowers and gentle winds eager to whisper bits of celebrity gossip into the ears of unwinding guests.

Nurturing Spa for Wellness is an oasis for human healing, where spiritual remedy comes through the energy of sound. An intimate sense of tranquility is achieved through welcoming furniture and walls painted the quiet color of a hushed mossy green that engulfs each patient's mental atmosphere before restorative sonic treatment begins. You'll be placed with a small group of no more than 20 people (average of around 10 to 12) as you all let yourself relax to the tones of tranquility. Singing-Bowl Therapy delivers the unspoiled melodies of seven pure-crystal singing bowls that resonate at various pitches to fill the mind and flow through the body's inner networks. Each bowl is designed to stimulate one of the seven chakras. Beautiful frequencies restore order to the chakras and the result is a deeply focused center and a clearer state of mind.

At Royal Thai Spa, nimble fingers knead aching muscles in the time-tested art of Thai massage, which incorporates stretching and deep massage performed on the floor. Additional massage modalities draw on aromatherapy and hot stones to extinguish tension patrons accumulate while fighting crime with gerbil sidekicks.
