Body Treatments & Wraps
Body Wrap in Ithaca, NY
Body treatments are a great way to help manage the health of your skin. We spend an awful lot of time and effort to make sure our faces look as young and healthy as possible – but many men and women often ignore the health of the skin on the rest of their bodies.
Coming in for a body treatment will work to accomplish three essential goals:
- Cleansing
- Exfoliating
- Hydrating
BODY SCRUBS, BODY POLISHES & BODY WRAPS
Back Treatment 1 hr. $160
A deep cleansing treatment for the hard-to-reach areas of the back, neck and shoulders. This treatment removes impurities, releases tension and leaves the skin clean and soft.
Eye Treatment 30 min $65; $55 as an add-on with another skincare service
This eye treatment prevents slackening of the delicate tissues surrounding the eyes, fades dark circles, reduces puffiness, decongests eyelids and diminishes fine lines. Extremely relaxing and very effective, it is enhanced with specialized massage techniques to give your eyes a youthful relaxed look.
BODY POLISH – Shea Butter Full Body Treatment/Karisoftness 1 hr. $150
A three-step full body polish begins with a gentle oatmeal body exfoliation. A hydrating gel consisting of honey, polysaccharides and aromatic complex is then gently massaged onto the skin moisturizing and improving the skin’s suppleness and preventing dehydration. An application of ultra rich shea butter completes the treatment, leaving the skin extra soft, elastic, silky and radiant. Great after pregnancy, before and after sun exposure and for winter care.
BODY SCRUB – Salt Glow (Sarvar Crystal Glow) 1 hr. $150
Indulge in a therapeutic body treatment with crystals from the thermal waters of Sarvar, Hungary. These crystals come from healing mineral springs 2,000 feet below sea level and are extremely abundant in mineral content–3 times more than Dead Sea salts. This treatment is ideal for polishing and remineralizing skin, leaving it soft and glowing. Includes an application of Sarvar cream containing 10% thermal water.
BODY WRAP – French Body Contour with Essential Oils 1 hr. $150
Experience the therapeutic and revitalizing benefits of the sea off the coast of Brittany. This treatment combines the benefits of seaweed, sea mud and essential oils. A dry brushing is followed by an application of a slimming gel of gingko biloba and milk thistle. The ingredients of cyclo lipase, phytolens, Vitamin E Nicotinate and caffeine stimulate the natural process of fat elimination, which reinforces firmness and tones the tissues. A light massage and a wrap in a warm sea mud complex complete the therapy. For optimum results, a series of 5 to 10 treatments is recommended.
BODY WRAP – Slimming/Cellulite Seaweed Body Treatment 1 hr. $150
This body treatment acts on fatty deposits by releasing its active marine ingredients through the skin, primarily Laminaria seaweed, which is rich in lodine–8 to 10 times more iodine than Fucus. This stimulates the thyroid metabolic processes responsible for fat and sugar metabolism. Our Slimming/Cellulite Seaweed treatment also supplies minerals such as calcium and magnesium, which are necessary for the balance of the human body. This slimming treatment, using a heating blanket, eliminates toxins through perspiration and is an excellent treatment against cellulite.
