Popular Cali-based spa chain The Now Massage is making it easier than ever to give the gift of relaxation this year. Guests can enjoy a complimentary $20 added to every $100 gift card purchase made online or in-boutique from Jan. 27 to Feb. 14. This new concept massage boutique was founded on the principle that self-care is a necessity, not a luxury. The boutique spa opened its doors in The Heights last fall.

This package includes a ride from any location within the 610 Loop to the hotel in a Bentley or Rolls Royce; a private couples helipad yoga session; a zen 60-minute couples massage; personalized bathrobes for two; dinner for two from Bloom & Bee; and a 30-minute photo shoot to capture the moment.

Consistent Focus on the Patient Is What Sets Montrose Med Spa Apart

Owner Maricela Olivo and Montrose Med Spa

WHAT MAKES MONTROSE Med Spa stand apart from the competition? We set ourselves apart from the competition by being consistently focused on one thing: the patient. With that focus, we will succeed in a successful and healthy experience and loyalty to Montrose Med Spa. Staying true to our message of intentional wellness is a point of difference where I see other spas being unclear and distracted in their direction. By listening to our patients, we ensure we meet and exceed their expectations. We continually stay on top of the market by offering the best innovative body sculpting and skin treatments that invigorate and energize and are specifically designed to restore balance and strength and renew youth to the body. We also utilize a number of marketing programs to stay on the minds of our guests, including radio, TV, direct mail, email blasts, and unique invitations for exclusive treatments. One element that helps to establish the bar and sets us apart from our competition is our emphasis on providing a complete medical gym experience—from the varied treatments with Emsculpt Neo to a personalized health and wellness and skin evaluation for each individual by our certified staff. We also provide a noninvasive, pain-free, and needle-free facelift through EMFace in addition to offering monthly beauty memberships that create a commitment to the overall wellbeing of the patient.
