Editorial Review for Area Spa – by Daniella Brodsky

The Scene
You don't have to be a holistic enthusiast to unwind at this homey four-room spa nestled in a quaint brownstone. Everyone will appreciate Dr. Hauschka skin- and body-care treatments, performed using his signature techniques and organic products. At the upper-level yoga studio, ashtanga, jivamukti and vinyasa classes are offered. At the spa's shop down the street, buy herbal teas, homeopathic remedies, supplements, Weleda organic skin care, and Dr. Hauschka's line.

The Services
Book a soothing Rhythmical body treatment to renew balance, detoxify the immune and digestive systems, and strengthen hormone and metabolism functions. Or try a two-hour holistic facial, including full-body stretching. You'll start with a sage foot soak to get you out of stress mode and ready for relaxation. Mud and seaweed body treatments are on the menu, as well as 10 types of massage (including back walking), reflexology, waxing and nail services.

I've been to the spa once, and it was your typical spa nothing out of this world unfortunately not enough to keep me coming back. Customers should definitely do some shopping around before investing their money on Area. A great website to do this is at thespaproject. I've used the site a countless number of times for a variety of events from my personal use, to mother's day gifts, and I even used it to organize a getaway for my sister's bridal party. The website is very useful for all types of spa lovers. It offers a range of spas that meet all relaxation needs.
