Healing Stone Pedicure

Healing Stone Pedicure

Le Reve takes the ancient art of stone healing up a notch with this treatment or should I say down a notch? Relax in our private nail area while pure essential oils, healing stones, and a hydrating mask are all therapeutically massage into your legs and feet. All this along with a massage to the hands and stones placed in your palms to fully balance yourself out during this amazing pedicure. 

I love a good pedicure and the Healing Stone Pedicure is a whole level of treating my toesies! I know they're happy campers when I'm finished and I feel
ready to walk all over the beautiful city of Santa Barbara. Plus our nail techs are absolutely splendid and receive nothing but compliments and treat your feet with expert care. 

With Kindness,

Tuning Forks for Sound Therapy.

Tuning Forks for Sound Therapy.

Like adjusting a piano, your body can be tuned to achieve optimal physical balance. Tapping two tuning forks will instantaneously alter your body’s biochemistry and bring your nervous system, muscle tone and organs into harmonic balance.


Your body enters a deep state of relaxation. Feeling centered, your mind will be at peace. 

Why are people using tuning forks with massage?

Improves mental clarity and brain function 
Increases you level of physical energy and mental concentration
Relieves stress by drawing your body into a centered space
Integrates left and right brain thought patterns
Brings your nervous system into balance
Enhances massage, acupressure, dream work, and meditation
Develops and refines your sonic abilities

Specially tuned to sacred proportions, you sit inside the space bringing two different sounds together making them one—and you feel unified, at peace, re-igniting the passion and power deep inside you. When you tap the tuning forks, you awaken the life energy of your cells and start them puffing, creating a centered, happy feeling inside.

How Tuning Forks Are Used

When you strike a tuning fork however, you'll notice how it causes the air around the fork to vibrate, sending out very strong vibrating impulses through the air. Because of this, they have been adopted by healers who use them to increase the amount of energy on parts of the body they are trying to heal.

All you do is strike a fork and place it near any body part you wish to heal. They are also used in energetic healing, for example, by putting them in the vicinity of the different chakras or energy centers located along the spine. These energy centers also just happen to be where the nerve centers are found along the spine that send impulses to the different organs, so by energizing these areas, you stimulate the organs into greater health-giving activity.


Ultimately...

Tuning Fork Sound Therapy is a powerful, non-invasive healing modality that uses sound vibration to re-harmonize and attune the human energy field. It has been used successfully to treat a wide variety of conditions by unblocking or releasing energy disturbances inside and outside the body. 

The vibration of sound has many effects on both the conscious and the unconscious levels invoking emotional responses. The power of sound can energize, uplift, and relax. Body Tuning is an effective way to align your inner rhythms and achieve optimal health and well-being.


Here at Le Reve we do have a massage therapist that does specialize in using tuning forks if you would like to try this technique you can call us at the spa 805-564-2977 and ask to book and appointment with our service provider Karen. 

Hope to see you soon!

Himalayan Salt Lamps


Breathe at Le Reve SpaHimalayan Salt Lamps have been becoming increasingly popular over the last several years, but do you know why? 
Apart from the fact that they are a gorgeous addition to any room they convey several amazing health benefits that most people don't know about!
One of the major benefits to owning one of these lamps is that they impact the air that you breath.

The production of these negative ions helps to purify the air and make the air your breath more oxygen rich while also cleansing it which makes the air you breath much cleaner and better for your body!
These awesome lamps also help to reduce allergens, pollens and other pollutants in the air and have been shown to be extremely beneficial for people who have severe allergies and even asthma. Another great benefit a Himalayan salt lamp can bring to your home is it's calming effects.

These salt lamps help to sooth the mind and bring you into a more relaxed state of mind, not only from the gentle glow they generate but also by the mineral ions they release. These awesome lights helps to balance electro-magnetic fields in your home which allow you to find a greater sense of peace!



Thats not all! According to WebMD, in the Negative Ions Create Positive Vibes
"Negative ions are odorless, tasteless, and invisible molecules that we inhale in abundance in certain environments. Think mountains, waterfalls, and beaches. Once they reach our bloodstream, negative ions are believed to produce biochemical reactions that increase levels of the mood chemical serotonin, helping to alleviate depression, relieve stress, and boost our daytime energy."



These lamps make an excellent gift for anyone as the benefits they convey are something all of us could use, plus they are absolutely stunning!
