Tempe Spa and Massage

Fuchsia lives up to its incandescent name: its hot-pink walls vibrate under shimmering chandeliers. The pink ceiling curves and cuts away to expose industrial chrome pipes reflecting the script of a neon fuchsia Fuchsia sign. Profiled by ABC's The Revolution, Good Morning Arizona, and magazines such as Everyday with Rachael Ray, the spa pampers its guests so thoroughly, it's earned a spot on Gayot's list of Top 10 Value Spas in the world.

Visitors call in or make online appointments to be bundled in body wraps, receive custom facials, or spruce up their nails. Massages take place in private suites where customers can tune into their own iPods, and hair-removal services prep parties for windstorms in velcro factories. The spa also contains a blow-dry bar, a makeup-artistry station, and shelves and racks of boutique apparel, accessories, and skincare products.

Massage practice located in the corporate district in downtown Phoenix. ProActive Therapeutic Massage is an independent member of a team of healers at Dynamic Pathways Wellness Center (see http://www.energeticpathways.com). It is not a day spa nor is it associated with any resort. Massages are corrective in nature.

The world is full of classic sequences such as washer then dryer, joke then laughter, and cheesecake then haircut. For $40, today’s Groupon adds another twosome to that list with a drop-in yoga session ($12 value) and a one-hour, therapeutic massage ($75 value) at the appropriately named Desert Song Yoga and Massage Center, a Phoenix yoga shoppe and massagery that's got 25 years of experience under its belt made out of old tires.

This Groupon lets you flutter your peepers as if they were freshly hatched flutterbirds batting high to the heavens. For $35, you get flirtishly fancy semi-permanent eyelash extensions using the Demi-Diva Initial Lash FX Set, and a lash-care kit and cleanser, from Gilbert Bodyworks and the Lash Loft.

VH Spa's talented spa sherpas guide guests to the peak of relaxation with treatments that smooth faces and soothe muscles. Trained therapists deploy a back, neck, and shoulder massage to subdue the body's most high-strung members into blissful submission, relieving tension and enabling a posture suitable for balancing the entire Harry Potter series on one's head.

Brandi Nuttall, the owner of Dolce Salon & Spa, must believe that you can never have too much of a good thing. Expanding upon her first and second Dolce locations, which measure in at 12,000 and 13,000 square feet, respectively, she opened the third hub in 2007. The 30,000-square-foot behemoth houses 62 styling stations, 21 spa rooms, 14 pedicure thrones, a makeup counter, a brow bar, and manicure stations. All three locations boast the same services—though at different scales—as well as men’s hair and spa treatments and bridal styling. Unlike hotels that charge extra for doorknobs and oxygen, the salons have a generous streak. They provide hairstyling services to those who donate to Locks of Love, spa services to local foster children, and hair clippings to areas affected by oil spills.
