The head spa process

Each package offers its own benefits. The exact steps vary with your needs, but every visit follows the same tranquil path.

  1. Skin & scalp analysis

    Iryna reviews your intake form, then looks at your skin and scalp with an analyzing machine. You see the results on a high-resolution screen, and together you decide which treatments fit.

  2. Facial

    Wrapped in a weighted, heated blanket with soft light and an essential oil diffuser, you're cleansed and exfoliated before any masks are applied.

  3. Head spa

    An oil-based scalp massage and a vitamin-based biotin treatment, with the soothing water tunnel to refresh the scalp and clear buildup around follicles.

  4. Upper-body massage

    A neck and upper-body massage softens knots and tight muscles while your treatments soak in.

  5. Final analysis

    Iryna checks your skin and scalp again so you can see the change, and shares how to care for them between visits.

  6. Express blow-out

    Every head spa ends with an included 10-minute express light blow-out and go, so you leave with dry, refreshed hair, ready for the rest of your day.

Add a signature foot massage

Indulge in a luxurious foot massage that restores balance and relaxation throughout the body. Gentle pressure and flowing techniques ease tired feet and stimulate circulation. Ask when you book.

What are head spas?

Soothing head spas are a traditional part of Japanese culture, with records of head massage in traditional medicine dating back to the early 1600s. Over time, new techniques turned a simple massage into a holistic wellness ritual, and head spas have become a popular luxury treatment in the United States.

Modern head spa treatments focus on natural ingredients, personalized care for your skin type, and a calming atmosphere. Benefits include stimulated circulation, reduced tension and stress, a healthier-feeling scalp, balanced oil, and better hydration.

From the moment I arrived, Iryna made me feel welcome. She took the time to explain my skin and scalp analysis, walk me through the treatment, and answer any questions I had along the way. … She offered thoughtful product recommendations based on my analysis without any pressure.

I ended up getting the facial and head spa combo. We took a look at my skin and scalp under a scope and Iryna told me what items we would be using to benefit my skin and scalp. The entire process was very relaxing. … 10/10 experience and would definitely go back!
