[ 24 ] • # dayspamagazine • september 2017 spotlight by Russell A. Jackson Describe some of your most popular add-on services. Emily Richey, spa director, Spa at Four Seasons Rancho Encantado, Santa Fe, New Mexico: We feature a unique menu of Spiritual Enhancements, the most popular of which is our sage smudging ceremony before a massage. The therapist clears the client's mind by burning sage, and using a feather to circulate the smoke and waft away negative energy. We also offer chakra balancing, energy fl ow balancing and guided mindful meditation. Our most popular 'traditional' add-on is our Ayurvedic muscle oil enhancement ($15 during a 50- to 80-minute massage) using Banyan Botanicals products, and our most popular enhancement for facials is the application of an eye mask ($15 during a 50- to 110-minute facial) from Patchology or ToGoSpa. A favorite manicure add-on among clients is having their hands enveloped in a warm aromatherapy wax before lacquer is applied. Pam Macomber, owner/massage therapist and esthetician, Nine Stones Spa, Portland, Maine: One of our popular add-ons is our hot stone foot massage (15 min./$30), in which warm basalt stones are used to massage the feet and lower legs. Our steam canopy and Vichy shower add- ons ($30 each during or after a massage, mud or detox treatment) are also beloved, and we get a lot of requests for our scalp treatment add-on (15 min./$30), in which Naturopathica's Wild Lime Revitalizing Scalp & Hair Oil and Ginger Root Bath and Body Oil are warmed and applied vigorously to the scalp, neck and shoulders to stimulate circulation and relieve tension. © GETTY IMAGES SERVICE ENHANCERS Celluma PRO by BioPhotas biophotas.com Éminence Apricot Body Oil eminenceorganics.com emerginC Revital-Eyes Mask emerginc.com Bon Vital' Therapeutic Touch Massage Creme bonvital.com Banyan Botanicals Mahanarayan Oil banyanbotanicals.com Biotone Herbal Select Face Therapy Massage Lotion biotone.com Add-Ons Smudging ceremonies, Moroccan oil massages, Vichy showers: Spa menu enhancements are luxurious for clients—and profi table for you.
