We have named our spa, Ataraxia. Ancient Greek culture believed "ataraxia" was the calm that came from or the calm that followed total confusion. We enjoy creating for you the calm that this ancient civilization knew.
All spa services are 60 minutes with the notation of "approximately". This allows the therapist to work with various product applications.
We like to leave time for your rest and relaxation following the session. This makes your time in Ataraxia enjoyable, comfortable, relaxing and also rejuvenating.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding allergies towards product application, please ask prior to your appointment time so consideration may be give
