Imagine a serene escape where the rush of daily life fades and true tranquility takes over. That’s Reprieve Spa, a meticulously crafted haven focusing solely on massage therapy, body treatments and skincare.
“I wanted to create a place where people could come and feel like they’re a little bird in a nest; they don’t have to worry about anything — we take care of them,” says owner Erica Medina, who has been a massage therapist since 2004.
Diverse massage techniques include everything from Swedish and deep tissue to hot stone, reiki and lymphatic drainage. Services use exclusively organic products and can be enhanced with add-ons like cupping, a scalp massage or reflexology. Guests can also enjoy a full-spectrum infrared sauna with red light therapy for detoxification and cellular rejuvenation.
“Our services are good for overall physical and mental health,” she says, adding that every month, she donates a spa day to someone battling cancer. “To give someone something to look forward to that’s positive, that’s huge. I hope it inspires others to do something similar.”
