Constellation Spa Philosophy

"A simplified and natural approach to providing basic spa services."

Spa menus and services have become extremely detailed and require so much consideration and forethought before actually partaking in the treatments. For some this could be discouraging, or increase apprehension for those new to the experience.

It took me over an hour and a half to explore, understand and finally determine which services I was interested in prior to making my first spa appointment. It has become confusing and cumbersome to sift through the many pages of spa treatments to reach a decision, and one that you may be uncertain of.

The mission of Constellation Spa is to return to the basic treatments that originally made spas popular. To add variety, we will incorporate a choice of oils or liniments to our basic Swedish or Shiatsu Massage. For example, Bindi Oil for an Indian touch, Eucalyptus for invigoration, lavender for healing.

The same approach for our facials. We will incorporate a simple European Facial to accommodate skin types. For example, we will customize the mask portion of the facial to accommodate hydration for dry or depleted skin or clay-type masks for oily skin or for those who need impurities removed.

Our treatments are to be non-invasive. Many spas are incorporating so many services to their menus, and some of these services should be reserved for the medical professionals. Such as dermabrasion and other invasive treatments. These treatments require more sophisticated and costly equipment. Of additional concern is the added risk of injury or customer dissatisfaction.

Our minimalist, non-invasive and natural approach will also make Constellation Spa more attractive to those who are intrigued but novice to spa treatments. Our approach is simple, friendly and very affordable.

Every aspect of "spa-going" should be pleasant, including the selection of services and ease of scheduling these services. Apprehension or uncertainty should not ever be a factor.

People's attitudes are changing. We are placing greater importance on loving ourselves. I think that is the key to help us properly interact with others. When we give ourselves the proper attention, it is reflected in how we deal with the people who are in our lives on a daily basis.

Taking time for oneself should never be considered a luxury. It is an absolute necessity. A relaxing massage, soothing facial, or lengthly pedicure, only takes an hour.

My simple recipe for our overall well being has but two ingredients:

1) Live each day by the Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"

2) Schedule one day per month as your personal self-nurturing day. If you work for a living, use a personal day or vacation day during the middle of the week.

We look forward to your visiting us in the near future, so that you can experience Silver Saddle Ranch and Constellation Spa for yourself.
