Unique treatment: A unique and all-time favorite treatment from L’Apothecary Spa is the Turquoise and Sage Hydration Body Treatment. This 90-minute nature-inspired treatment is designed to ground and restore energy with the Earth’s healing treasures of wild sage, chamomile, lavender, and rosemary.
The session begins with a dry brush exfoliation to stimulate circulation and prepare the skin for an application of conditioning sage and turquoise stone-infused body butter. Feet and hands are then exfoliated with herbal salts followed by warm sage butter application to replenish and moisturize. Guests will emerge from a deep rest feeling restored, pampered, and hydrated and can enjoy a glass of Rose Kombucha and an Arizona-inspired truffle and receive a handmade turquoise bracelet infused with sage to remember their visit to L’Apothecary Spa.
