90-min Massage

  Why a Massage is Right For You

Just imagine... Soothing music, relaxing atmosphere, and 90-mins of pure bliss. This is what you'll experience when you book a 90-min therapeutic massage. Tell back-aches and muscle-aches goodbye when you meet with one of our talented massage therapists. At Le Reve Spa, our therapists are trained in a dozen different modalities, from shiatsu to pressure point. Not sure what modality fits your lifestyle? We can find your perfect match from our wonderful lineup. We have clients that have been with us for years that know our staff is dedicated to their overall well-being. Still not sold? Here are some of the top benefits of massage therapy.

Massage therapy from a licensed practitioner can:

  • Lower stress
    The long-term effects of stress can take emotional and physical tolls. Massage 
    therapy may relieve stress and conditions associated with it, such as tension headaches.
  • Increase immune function
    Medical research indicates that massage therapy can help boost immune system strength by increasing the activity level of the body’s natural “killer T cells,” which fight off viruses.
  • Boost mental health and wellness
    Research suggests that symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression (all associated with mental health) may be directly affected with massage therapy.
  • Manage pain
    Pain can negatively affect a person’s quality of life and impede recovery from illness or injury. Recent findings highlight the role of massage in pain management.
Doesn't this sound like just what you needed in your life? 

Here are some of the different types of modalities:
  • Swedish
    • Involves long and flowing strokes, kneading, and gentle stretching. It aims to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote relaxation and well-being by manipulating soft tissue and enhancing the flow of blood to the heart.

  • Deep Tissue
    •  Focuses on re-aligning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. It involves slow strokes and deep pressure to target chronic muscle tension, knots, and adhesions, and is often used to relieve tension and muscle soreness.

  • Hot Stone
    • Involves the placement of smooth, heated stones on specific points of the body. The warmth from the stones helps to relax muscles, improve circulation, and alleviate pain, providing a deeply soothing and calming experience for the recipient.

  • Craniosacral Therapy
    • A gentle, non-invasive form of bodywork that focuses on the bones of the head, spine, and sacrum. It involves light touch to balance the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and relieve tension in the central nervous system. It’s believed to promote relaxation, reduce pain, and improve overall well-being.

Here at Le Reve Spa, we have a plethora of service providers adept at various modalities. We wanna help you find the right one for your body. We dedicate ourselves to the well-being of our clients, and that includes you. Call us at (805)564-2977 or visit our website to book today!

Stone Crop Body Wrap at Le Reve

 Stone Crop Body Wrap

Stone Crop Body Wrap at Le Reve Organic Spa & Boutique

The cold is just around the corner! So it's time to pamper your skin and embrace pure hydration this season. Don't let the heat and cold dry out your skin further, and help protect it with our Stone Crop Body Wrap at Le Reve Spa

First, start off with a gentle and exfoliating scrub. This will soften and smooth your skin in order to prepare it for the Restorative wrap. Once the wrap is applied, your skin will be met with a plethora of organic ingredients that will have your skin glowing from hydration.

First and foremost, stone crop will be introduced to your skin, which promotes hydration and brightness throughout your skin. While also inducing hydration, aloe will heal and moisturize dry skin, while reducing redness and itchiness that may have been caused due to the Sun. This aspect of the wrap is perfect for that transition between Winter and those long Summer days. The wrap also contains an ingredient know as horsetail, which promotes softening of the skin and the supplying of silica (which is needed for the production of collagen). Finally, your skin will be hit with caffeine that will brighten and revitalize your skin, with a noticeable reduction of redness and puffiness. 

Stone Crop is a little succulent plant that release intense hydration and healing/anti-inflammatory properties, so once introduced to your skin you will start to witness amazing results. 

This wrap is great for those on the dryer skin side, but still provides great benefits if dehydration is not a major concern of yours. You will see a reduce in cellulite, dark spots, and sun damage. You will also experience an increase in circulation throughout your body, leading to better blood flow and increase the flow of oxygen and nutrients to your skin and other body parts. This circulation aids in one's immune system and well-being. The wrap aids in your skin's elasticity and increase collagen production.

Overall, this is a great wrap that benefits one's overall health and well being. You will experience relaxation and stress reduction, which let's be real, we could all use.

Therapeutic Hot Stone Massage at Le Reve

 Hot Stone Massage at Le Reve Spa

Therapeutic Hot Stone Massage 

Plagued with achy muscles and tension that just won't go away? Therapeutic full body massages are great for helping those with stubborn knots and muscle pain, but if you want to go even further with your treatment then try adding heat. Hot Stone Massages are great for that added strength necessary to tackle knots and tensed muscles.
 
A Hot Stone Massage comes with many added benefits to your health. If you deal with chronic pain or are going through chemotherapy, you will find relief by booking a therapeutic Hot Stone massage. Even if you are just looking for relief from a rough week of work, this service is meant for you.

Benefits of a Hot Stone Massage
  1. Reduces pain and relaxes muscles throughout your body, due to the heat of the stones. The heat causes your blood vessels to expand and allows better circulation for the affected areas. This added circulation allows muscles and muscle spasm to relax and loosen.
  2. A hot stone massage is known to aid in melting away stress and anxiety. Similar to sitting in a hot bath, a hot stone massage alleviates the tension that is brought forth by the stressors of everyday life.
  3. The hot stones in tandem with the massage will promote lymphatic drainage throughout your body. The therapist uses the stones to release toxins to the skin's surface. This will help flush toxins and waste at a faster rate.
  4. Promotes a much more restful and deeper sleep.
For after the massage, we recommend consuming a lot of water, especially after such a detoxifying service. These toxins are removed through your body's natural sweat glands and by also flushing your system out with water. You will also feel a little out of it following your massage, but have no worries as it  is only your body in a relaxed state that you may not be used to. We recommend a massage every 4-6 weeks, especially if dealing with any large stressors in your life. It is important to keep your body in tip top shape, and regular massages can aid in that.

Hot Stone Massages


Let's Heat That Body Up!


 
Have you ever heard of or have you ever received a Hot Stone Massage before? It is the absolute perfect way to transition into this winter season. Here at Le Reve Organic Spa and Boutique we have awesome service providers that know exactly how to incorporate hot stones into the massage to warm that body up and get your blood flowing and circulating. 



You will experience the ancient art of stone therapy. Healing stones will be applied to specific pressure points throughout your body and they will integrate the warm stones in a deeply therapeutic massage

At the start of the session, your massage therapist will ensure the energy and vibe in the room, the body, and the environment is always comforting, welcoming, and calming to each of our guests. Then they will begin to relax the nerves throughout the body to ease the body's nervous system. 

Afterwards, your massage therapist will rub body oil into the areas that are tense or need more attention/catering to, to help prepare for the most enjoyable and soothing hot stone massage

The 90 minute massage can use hot stones incorporated the entire massage time unless specified otherwise, but still also includes a traditional massage using the hands as well. 

All massages provided at Le Reve are catered to meet your body's individual needs by our experienced and nurturing massage therapists.
