Tranquil Escapes, Carmel

Hands steeped in massage oils and herbs slip across taut muscles, demonstrating proficiency in 10 distinct massage modalities. Armed with a range of organic products, Tranquil Escapes' certified massage therapists aim to guide clients down the path to emotional well-being. One or two therapists gently knead clients' surfaces or dig into deeper tissues, conducting services in a private room to ensure treatments free of motorcycle stuntmen on their cell phones. Therapists also relieve tension through chocolate body scrubs, ear candling, and integrated therapies, which combine massage with meditation. The thrum of calm conversation drifts from spa parties, which feature brief sample services and snacks in the studio or on location.
