The Place
Less day spa, more co-op. The reception area is filled with
fliers for local activities, health-related books, all-natural
products (including the limited house line) and a stream of
neighbors stopping in to say hello. Freshly-laundered towels
and sheets are stacked in the hallways, and treatment rooms
are casual and comfy. The staff is knowledgeable, relaxed and
a far cry from the formal matrons of more traditional spas.

The Services
Home specializes in healing treatments with a holistic bent,
preferring alternative therapies to frillier spa fare. Seven
types of 75-minute facials treat specific skin issues with natural
products and essential oils like neroli, frankincense, tea tree
and lemon, while the 105-minute Intensive Aromatherapy Facial
heals stressed or neglected faces. Body services include seaweed
wraps and scrubs, foot, hand and eye treatments, waxing and
ear candling. Massage styles include Amma, Reiki, Swedish, Lympho-Circulatory
and Hot Stone, with sessions booked for 75 minutes to ensure
a full one-hour rub-down.
