Om Sweet Om

Tranquil-Spa

The bliss of Swedish massage. The relaxation induced by real reflexology. The soul-reviving strokes of reiki.

Nothing quite like ’em.

Ducking out of the spa with your hair looking like crap and running into your crush.

Nothing quite like that, either.

If only you could get pampered minus the trek across town. You can — with Tranquil-Spa’s services done right in your home. They bring the folding bed with white linen sheets, scented candles, and soothing music; you bring the stress that they’ll alleviate with everything from aromatherapy and hot stone massages to shiatsu. They also offer a deep pore cleansing facial accompanied by a scalp massage and heated foot pads.

What’s more, they do private parties, too, with health-conscious salads and finger foods for nibbling. So you can get pampered among friends.

And no one person’s hair will look worse than anyone else’s.
