The Best Couples Spa Treatments

Couples alone time consists of more than just locking the door and turning down the lights. A modern time means a modern understanding of how we can connect with our partners to better love and understand them, and couples spa treatments fit into that understanding perfectly.

Spa treatments are a great way to reconnect. Feel your tension being massaged away, your skin cleansed, and your nails buffed as you soak in your partner's loving presence. We've collected the best spa treatments for couples so you can choose the best one for you and your partner.

Couples Massage

Swedish Massage

Couple’s Swedish massages are an extremely popular choice for couples that need to relax and reconnect. Whether you have a high-stress job, family life, or a mixture of both, Swedish massages are an excellent way to relax your muscles and mind, and doing it with your loved one lets you relax in your relationship at the same time.

Swedish massage features long, kneading strokes of the muscles. This is excellent along the back, legs, and arms, where our muscles can become strained from carrying our weight and stress. Swedish massage covers your back, neck, legs, arms, and even your hands and feet. With rhythmic tapping strokes and moving of the joints, your masseuse can help alleviate your tension, leaving you feeling boneless, relaxed, and ready to spend special time with your partner.

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massages for couples are the perfect choice for those with high-stress lives or those who might have an illness or injury that adds stress. Couples deep tissue massage is a great option for those who want to release tension and toxins together for a lighter, happier life. Our masseurs will expertly massage deep below your skin to get to the heart of your issues, so you can easily wear your heart on your sleeve with your partner.

While people often think that a deep tissue massage is just a firmer Swedish massage, deep tissue massage is actually a great healing tool. Deep tissue massage uses firm pressure combined with slow strokes to massage deep layers of muscle and fascia (the connective tissue that envelopes and holds everything in your body in place). Think of it as a method that penetrates through to every cell of your body to relieve stress, reduce pain, and make movement easier by breaking up scar tissue. This is the perfect opportunity to heal and move forward as a couple.

Aromatherapy Massage

Aromatherapy has become a wildly popular technique as we have learned more about leveraging our sense of smell to heal ourselves and create closer bonds with those around us. However, its healing properties aren’t necessarily the only thing that makes it such a great spa treatment for couples.

Smell is so deeply tied to our memories and hearts that exploring a range of healing and restorative scents with your loved one is the perfect way to reconnect, creating a new level of dynamic connection with your loved one. In addition, aromatherapy spa treatments are great for couples looking for a sensual immersion into their experience of relaxation. Finally, they can be used as a fun change of pace from regular date nights.

Hot Stone Massage

If you’ve ever warmed up a heated compress and settled it on a sore spot, you’ll understand why hot stone massage is such a great tool for relaxing together as a couple. For this massage, basalt river rock stones will be heated in a professional heater and then applied to strategic places on your body to help relax and rejuvenate you. In addition, these river stones are smoothed by the current of water, allowing them to better soothe you.

While any kind of massage can help treat and relieve stress, anxiety, and tension, hot stone massages are a highly effective form of massage that uses massage principles. These are pressure, heat, and targeting muscle groups. These do all that and more, even relieving chronic illnesses, pain, and depression.

Facials

Seaweed Facial

Facials are a superb way of detoxing your skin, cleaning out the pores and sweat glands so your body can detox itself more effectively. Although your skin isn't one of the organs that detox your body, there have been studies that show that some heavy metals leave your body through your skin, so cleansing and rejuvenating your skin is an excellent way to leave your body fresher and more prepared than before.

Seaweed is an amazing material for cleansing your skin, and using its essence can tap into its hydration, brightening, balancing, detoxing, and anti-inflammatory properties. Getting a seaweed facial is a great way to calm and relax your skin, leaving you feeling the same way. In addition, a seaweed facial with your partner will leave you feeling fresh and renewed.

Oxygen Facial

Oxygen facials have many brightening and anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, they are a fantastic way to add much-needed oxygen to your cells. Because your entire body needs oxygen in order to function properly, applying concentrated oxygen directly to your skin gives it an extra boost that it might not get otherwise. In addition, this treatment can help with the appearance of acne and other blemishes because of its anti-inflammatory properties.

Think about the last time your face or skin felt puffy or irritated. It wasn't a very pleasant feeling and probably left you feeling awful and unrested. An oxygen facial will help you and your partner feel relaxed, refreshed, and reconnected by easing inflammation.

European Facial

European facials are a classic facial that allows you to de-clog and exfoliate your skin while encouraging cell turnover. It’s the perfect facial for anyone wanting to remove impurities while reducing tension in the face. It can even reduce the onset of headaches between the eyes.

We all need fewer headaches in our life, and that's never truer than in your relationship. Couples European facials are a great way to promote new life and growth in your skin while relaxing together and enjoying a spa day.

Microdermabrasion

Exfoliating and cleansing your skin is essential to taking care of it. Getting rid of rough and uneven outer layers of your skin lets new and healthy skin breathe and flourish, helping your skin's complexion and overall health. Microdermabrasion is a wonderful treatment that cleans the older skin off your face, leaving room for the healthier skin to come out.

Microdermabrasion is an excellent couples spa treatment because it uses special tools to gently sand your skin, removing that upper layer and leaving fresh skin revealed, so both of you can put your best foot forward.

Back Facial

A back facial encompasses the same techniques and products used during a facial, but on your back. Many of us suffer from back acne or impurities on our back, and getting a back facial is an excellent way to clean those impurities up and ensure a smooth and soft back.

This is a recommended treatment for couples because cleansing the back is a refreshing and relaxing experience that you and your partner can quietly reflect and reconnect.

Manicures and Pedicures

Everyone enjoys pampered hands and feet, and taking the time to get manicures and pedicures with your partner can be a fun and informative experience. Discovering your partner has ticklish feet or they enjoy having their nails painted can be a great opportunity to implement new intimacies and together-time at home.

Manicures

While some might think that a manicure is just painted nails, the process and art of manicures is a pampering experience that covers every part and aspect of your hands. Technicians will ensure that your hands are moisturized, groomed, and buffed to a shine. This is a great experience for couples because it’s a perfect opportunity to unplug distractions and focus on one another. After all, you can’t compose an email to the office when your hands are occupied with a technician.

A manicure can be very straightforward, basic, or include gel or French styles, or a deluxe spa manicure that includes all the pampering you'd like. For couples, a deluxe spa manicure is recommended so that you have the most time and relaxation possible.

Pedicures

A foot massage is universally recognized as the height of relaxation and pampering. A great pedicurist can take care of your feet so that the wear and tear of days rushing and running from task to task can be erased and replaced with soft skin, relaxed muscles, and any color of the rainbow on your toes. Of course, you can also have a nude or clear coat if colored toes aren’t your thing.

Pedicures can also be simplistic or involved, from a quick clean and shape to an in-depth deluxe spa experience with an added 10 minutes of massage. This is a recommended spa treatment for couples because it opens so many options for conversation during the treatment or even repeat performances at home.

Reconnect and Rejuvenate

You and your partner are looking for a way to relax, reset, and strengthen your bodies and your bond. Doing any (or all) of the couples' spa treatments you love as a unit is a great way to share in joy and relaxation.
