If Your Kids + Family Spent the Summer on a Road Trip…
You’ve spent the last three months traveling to see family or new sights with the kids in tow. As fun as it is to travel, it’s also really stressful with kids. Take a break and float away with these special treatments.
Om Life {18 Park View Avenue, Jersey City}
For a truly unique experience, go to Om Life for their float spa treatment. Flotation therapy allows the body to absorb magnesium sulfate which most of us are deficient in, according to their site. The quiet, uninterrupted space will allow you to re-center your mind and help you feel prepared to tackle the demands of the school year.
Hoboken Wellness Spa {450 7th Street, Hoboken}
Head to Hoboken Wellness Spa for a detoxing hydrafacial. This treatment is a non-invasive solution to remove impurities and dead skin, leaving you with clearer, softer skin. What better way to say, “I got this!” than with gorgeous skin.
Attain Medspa {720 Monroe Street, Hoboken}
If you’re looking for a deep clean that will whisk the stress right off of your face, consider the Mini Steam + Clean facial at Attain Medspa. The initial steam treatment is followed by a cleansing balm, extractions, toner, enzyme exfoliate, moisturizer, and completed with a refreshing rosewater mist. You’ll leave feeling ready to take on the world.
Moonlight Spa {722 Washington Street, Hoboken}
Nothing says complete relaxation like a massage. Moonlight Spa is a great spot in Hoboken to get those stress knots pressed out. They have same-day appointment availability, hot stones are included in the massage price, and the technicians regularly check-in regarding pressure levels.
If Your Kids Are Starting Pre-K…
Your three-year-old is starting Pre-K, finally. You’ve been on call for the past 1,095 days. No breaks. You deserve to check into a spa for the entire week, but since Pre-K only lasts for six hours, here’s a roundup of amazing alternatives.
Body Balance Massage & Skincare Spa {20 Hudson Place, Hoboken}
Take a well-deserved break and indulge in a full-body treatment. From reflexology foot massages, to sports massages, to prenatal massages, Body Balance is a full-service spa. And don’t think that facials are just for your face – Body Balance offers a back facial to refresh the skin that gets little attention. With over 15 treatment options, you’re bound to find a good fit.
