Stow, 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.

Whether you've been looking for a new color to crown your cranium or a pretty polish for your perky piggies, Spa-Uptown has you covered head to toe. The friendly team of beauty experts will smooth and soothe whatever section of your surface area aches for tending, from your freshly sore Olive Oyl tattoo to the love-bite scars from your pet gull. Survive life on the lam with a new hair design ($30 and up), and recover from your scuffle down Mt. Rushmore with the necessary nail repair ($7 per nail). A 30-minute massage ($50) soothes sore joints and alleviates aches, a 20-minute Vichy shower ($25) offers a horizontal hose-down worthy of Napoleon’s mother, and a full-face makeup application ($45+) is the perfect professional blushstroke for a special event. You can get a lip wax ($15) before the big basketball game or properly express your victory with a perfectly tweezed brow ($20). These services are just the well-manicured tip of the hot-pink iceberg: Spa-Uptown offers many more treatments and salon services in a wide range of prices, allowing for customized gift packages upon request.

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.

The luxurious manicure and pedicure at this upscale yet inviting salon and spa allows finger and toe bearers to unclench and unwind. The friendly, professional nailsmiths will soak and exfoliate winter-dried dermis before trimming, buffing, shaping, and polishing your bodily bouquet of phalanges. Natural Beauty Salon & Spa uses only top-of-the-line and all-natural botanical-based products to leave your extremities more soft and sparkly than a biscuit with glitter butter.

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.
