The aestheticians at The Spa at Lakeside 2.0 invigorate bodies with purifying skin scrubs, relaxing massages, and cleansing mini facials. The therapeutic sea salt and sugar scrub unites olive, safflower, and jojoba with sugar to rid the body of freeloading cells, softening and moisturizing skin in the process. An Indian head massage slackens tense muscles in the neck, shoulders, and upper back as patrons overlook the lake from the spa’s back terrace, barring inclement weather or nature going on strike. Or opt for a 25-minute full-body Swedish massage, during which licensed massage therapists apply a seed-oil-based gel and knead bodies with long, flowing strokes, which, like handing out free copies of a magazine, can increase circulation. An accompanying mini facial exfoliates skin and soothes faces with a steam and customized mask.
