What an Herb

Hot Treatments at Blue Mint Spa

Free your mind.

The rest will follow.

Like loose limbs, relaxed muscles, hydrated skin, and a digestive tract that’s clean as a whistle. And that’s just from a Thai silk body wrap, one of the hot treatments offered at Blue Mint.

The diminutive SoHo retreat focuses on the best of Eastern holistic therapies, with seasoned aestheticians (alums of Poh Tree Thai Spa and Thai Privilege Spa) using herbal ingredients like black pepper and galangal to aid digestion, reduce puffiness, stimulate circulation, and increase metabolism.

They also incorporate clay pots, massage, hot compresses, silk protein gels for funky divas (sorry En Vogue), and a whole host of facials.

To keep you in mint condition.

Blue Mint, 73 Spring Street, between Crosby and Lafayette Streets, suite 201 (718-744-8853 or bluemintspa.com).
