Bamboo Foot Treatment
Our Bamboo Exfoliating Extract is obtained from the bamboo
tabashi stems collected in the form of a thick liquid which crystallizes at
room temperature. This crystalline powder is very rich in mineral salt and
is an excellent source of silica. It makes a mild exfoliate, allowing newer
cells to shine through. This luxurious treatment includes an aromatherapy
foot soak followed by our bamboo and lemongrass foot scrub, a warm-towel seaweed
foot wrap, and a luxurious foot massage. Combine with a hot paraffin
dip for the ultimate foot treatment. (45-minute treatment, $65)

Hopi Native Ear Candling
Experience the powerful benefits of this ancient art. Herbed, cone-shaped candles are used to draw out debris from the ear into the cone. This treatment is soothing and relaxing, noninvasive and healing. (1 hour treatment, $60)
Lypossage
Lypossage is a body contouring system developed by Mr. Charles Wiltsie, which will help re-shape your figure without invasive surgery. Lypossage is performed on the lower body, including buttocks, hips, thighs and lower abdomen, as well as the upper body—arms, face, and neck. Lypossage is not invasive and is a natural way to rid the body of toxins. It helps to flush out cellulite, tone arms and thighs, and provides a natural face lift as well. It is safer than surgical procedures such as liposuction. However, for those who choose to have liposuction, Lypossage is an excellent complement, both before and after the procedure.
This is a powerful and natural hands-on body contouring technique which will re-shape your figure without invasive surgery. It has been called "The Natural Facelift." This is the perfect treatment for those of you who are fit, and yet want help in getting that particular "problem bulge" into shape. (Series of 18 treatments of ½ hour each, $1,850)
Trimming Wraps
Discover the new you with our herbal trimming wraps, designed to
help slim the heavy sluggish areas of your body. Our trimming wraps consist
of carefully selected herbs which work in synergy to detoxify your body, increase
circulation, improve function of the kidneys, liver, lymphatic system, and
intestines, and thus aid your body's natural cleansing process. As an added
benefit, the alfalfa, comfrey, ginger, and peppermint will gently soothe your
muscles into complete relaxation, while the aloe, fennel and papaya are superb
skin cleansers and toners. After 6 consecutive sessions you will discover
a new fabulous you. This is an excellent complement to Lypossage or a stand-alone
treatment. Each treatment is 90 minutes. (Single treatment: $120. Series
of 6 treatments: $110 each. Series of 10 treatments: $95 each. Series of 18
treatments: $80 each)
