Though registered nurse Kimberly Lilly has 15 years of experience in plastic surgery, she prefers to help clients achieve their beauty goals through noninvasive treatments. The head aesthetician at Skin Deep Aesthetics LLC uses natural compounds such as chocolate, peppermint, and lavender in each of her facials to gently cleanse and hydrate skin without smudging sharpie goatees. She also performs slightly more intense procedures such as light chemical peels and crystal microdermabrasion to exfoliate skin and encourage cellular turnover.

Head to Toes is a full-service day spa and salon with an ablution to suit every pore and follicle on the human soul-sack. Partake in your choice of one of these five beauty-brimming packages:

At Find Your Escape Massage, clients are ushered into a relaxing state of mind as aches and pains are removed from their bodies during 30-, 45-, 60-, and 90-minute massage sessions. The long, flowing strokes of a Swedish massage target joint stiffness and painful areas, such as achy backs and arms that have braided themselves together. Deep-tissue sessions apply firmer pressure to the body, aiming to release knots deep within the underlying muscles. Hot stones can also be incorporated into a massage treatment, allowing tension to fade away as the heat penetrates the muscles and relaxes clients who can’t leave the house without taking their prized anvil along.

A 13-year military veteran who then became a police officer and, after that, retail and corporate security, Darryl Griffith should be entitled to a lifetime of massages. But instead of lying on the table and reaping his reward, he took up the craft and began treating others. For the last ten years, Just the Right Touch's master massage therapist has been doling out Swedish, deep-tissue, and oncology massages with the same commitment to serving others that he upheld in his previous careers. Darryl's mission is to help improve the quality of his clients' lives by administering massages accompanied by Aromaplex oils, which guide his trained hands as he soothes tense muscles and helps bring relief to those suffering from sickness or injury. As a massage educator, he also teaches the craft to aspiring bodyworkers, and further fosters healthy living by offering wellness consultations.

With its plush gray love seat and cushy floral chairs, the waiting area of Royalty Beauty Boutique could easily be mistaken for a friend’s living room. But in this comfortable escape, beauty consultants don’t just indulge in neighborhood gossip—they also gussy up patrons from head to toe. Hairstylists cut and color strands, using full or partial highlights to add depth and dimension. Nail technicians show off their artistic ability by painting fingers and toes with vibrant colors, intricate floral designs, and ”do not stick in electrical sockets” warnings.

From their stress-free oasis inside The Park Hotel, the therapists at Fusion Massage dissipate stress and tension with gliding Swedish strokes, deep-tissue pressures, and soothing aromatherapy oils. As their name implies, they specialize in an ultimate fusion massage that blends traditional modalities with Thai stretching. When the therapists’ nimble fingers aren’t enough, they melt away aches with hot stones that can be gently placed on muscles or hurled at backs to break up clumps of tension.
