In the Dark Ages, princesses exfoliated with Fabergé-egg dust and filed fingernails on the edges of gold doubloons. Revel in more-modern and luxurious beauty treatments with today's Groupon: for $20, you get one week of unlimited services at Planet Beach Contempo Spa, up to a $250 value. This Groupon can be used at the following Planet Beach locations: Downtown, Uptown, Maple Grove, St. Paul, and Roseville. This deal is valid for aqua/hydro massage (St. Paul, Roseville, and Maple Grove locations only), VIP tanning, liquid-vitamin steam baths, hydro-derma fusion, and Mystic tanning sessions.
Planet Beach is a futuristic relaxation station where state-of-the-art machines and retired robocops administer quality spa services. Providing an enjoyable Contempo Spa experience, these friendly automatons facilitate everything from hydro massages and spray tanning to coldly calculated logic debates. Each machine is designed for a specific service, which makes it the ultimate expert and keeps it from developing the ability to cry. Services include hydro-derma fusion (a $25 value), which deeply hydrates, nourishes, and rejuvenates lackadaisical skin, as well as Mystic spray tanning (a $35 value), which applies a bronzing melanin marinade. Additionally, a VIP tanning session (a $12.95 value) embeds healthy shine to pasty skin without the use of muscle vinaigrette, and a hydro or aqua massage (a $25 value) relieves stress, sheds muscle tension stemming from crocodile wrestling, increases flexibility, and helps with photoskinthesis.
Planet Beach operates on a gym-style membership system, meaning members pay for packages or flat monthly rates. With a week of services, this Groupon allows anyone to take advantage of Rube Goldberg–style beautification on his or her own time frame while utilizing the services of stress-blasting spa terminators. A staff of helpful spa assistants is always on hand to answer questions, help first-timers use the machines, and keep things safe and comfortable. Call ahead to make appointments; services are subject to availability.
Rejuva GlowSpa
With stress levels on the rise, it's important to take a day to take care of yourself. Fortunately, Rejuva GlowSpa lets you do just that—literally. Here, clients actually self-administer many of their own treatments using automated machines that can do everything from massage sore muscles to hydrate the skin.
The Hydration Station is a pod-like unit that encloses the body from the shoulders down, moisturizing the skin with vitamin-infused steam that may help boost collagen production. There's also beds for hydro-massage and red-light therapy, the latter of which may boost blood flow and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The spa even provides tanning services in the form of UV beds and California Tan airbrush sessions.
