Get Your Rocks Off

Physician, heal thyself.

Great advice if you happen to be an M.D., but it leaves the rest of us in the lurch with respect to our tired skin and run-down selves.

Take things to a higher realm with the Plaisir des Sens stone facial, a 90-minute treatment that uses different stones to soothe the body and promote self-healing.

The process begins with a half-hour back massage utilizing hot chakra-balancing stones. Then you’re flipped over for a cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturizing facial, after which specific stones are used to improve your skin’s condition.

Volcanic stone oxygenates the skin, a cool aqua jade pebble rubbed over puffy lids soothes the eyes, and seven different semiprecious gems placed on facial points tap into your natural self-curing abilities.

Should do wonders for your bedside manner.
