Summer stress? The kids are out of school and underfoot, vacations demand planning, surviving, and recovery – and then there’s the heat. Stress doesn’t take a season off, so there’s no better moment than now to pause and pour into yourself.

Stress triggers chemical responses in the body that can send skin issues into overdrive. Cortisol, for example, spikes and can lead to breakouts. Counteract it by carving out time to truly unwind: sit and catch up with someone you love, put your feet up with a cup of tea, cue up your favorite music, and surround yourself with family and friends. Relaxation dissolves stress and shows up on your skin as a healthy glow. And never skip the fundamentals – cleanse and moisturize twice a day, every day. Keep your mental and physical well-being at the top of your priority list.

Scheduling a face or body treatment with us is another beautiful way to nourish your overall well-being. We especially recommend aromatherapy for its stress-relieving, healing properties, and we’ve created two signature experiences around it:

The DeStress Me Facial begins with a deep cleanse and pore-softening steam, then moves into a soothing massage of the neck, face, décolleté, shoulders, and upper back. Euphoric essential oils elevate the experience, allowing two of your most powerful senses – touch and smell – to work in harmony and leave you feeling relaxed, radiant, and renewed.

The Ultimate Aromatherapy Back Treatment is exactly that – the ultimate back facial, powered by essential oils. I custom-blend oils based on your needs to achieve your desired results. This indulgent treatment includes cleansing, exfoliation, extractions (if needed), a restorative massage of the back, neck, shoulders, arms, hands, and feet, followed by a mask, toner, and moisturizer.
