Sometimes one of the most relaxing things is a simple ritual—knowing exactly what is supposed to happen next without even thinking about it. The same sequence of events unfolds at each of Red and White Spa's three locations. As soft music plays, a friendly staffer greets each client and immediately offers him or her a complimentary glass of lemon- or cucumber-infused water. In-depth consultations are next on the agenda. The spa's experts listen to each client's goals and beauty concerns, and then together they select the perfect treatment.

The process is one of the reasons the spa with the red and white decor is successful. Testimonials praise the relaxing atmosphere and little extras offered by the spa, as well as the spa's services. These include facials that use products from such reputable brands as Dermalogica and Intracuticals, and classic waxing.
