Spring Time in Tahoe!

Finally, the sun is out here in Tahoe. We are expecting temperatures in the 50's this week. There is still plenty of time for your spring skiing, but the powder stashes will be disappearing. Spring is a perfect time for Salt Treatments. Not all salt treatments are the same! We use pure New Zealand sea salts and emollient rich plant and flower oils. Polish away dull skin and recapture your skin’s youthful glow. We don’t buy our salt in bulk. Rather we purchase only limited amounts of organic body polish (organic sea salt) at a time. Your skin will feel baby soft after one of our salt treatments.

We start this treatment by lightly brushing your skin to increase circulation, following this we apply our organic sea salt to remove the dead skin (which everyone has).
The aromas in our salts will enhance your treatment as you delve deeply into their scent.

This is followed by a shower, and then the one hour massage of your choice.
