Haven Spa, nestled on Mercer Street in lower Manhattan near NYU, provides a tranquil escape with a diverse menu of beauty and spa treatments. The spa’s welcoming atmosphere begins with the friendly front desk staff, who guide guests through a brief intake form to understand individual skin and health needs.
After completing the form, guests are escorted to the locker room, where they are provided with a locker, towel, robe, and slippers. The attentive staff ensures a seamless transition to the spa’s serene lounge area. The dimly lit lounge, adorned with a stunning chandelier, offers a relaxing environment to unwind with a selection of flavored waters and teas.
Following a brief respite in the lounge, a therapist escorts guests to a private treatment room down a quiet hallway. One popular treatment, The Hourglass Treatment, focuses on slimming, toning, tightening, and detoxifying the body. This unique wrap utilizes a blend of plant extracts, caffeine, essential oils, and algae extracts to achieve its transformative effects.
The Hourglass Treatment begins with the application of a warm, orange-hued mixture infused with essential oils. The treatment room is kept comfortably warm to enhance relaxation during the application process.
The therapist then incorporates hot and cold thermal agents to stimulate fat burning, reduce the appearance of cellulite and varicose veins, and minimize stretch marks. Following the application of these agents, the body is wrapped in plastic wrap and covered with soft blankets, allowing the treatment to penetrate deeply.
After a period of relaxation, the wrap is removed, and a cooling menthol and eucalyptus agent is applied, providing a refreshing and invigorating sensation. Guests are then wrapped in blankets again and offered a warm cup of tea as the cooling process continues. A final step involves time in the steam room to further enhance the treatment’s benefits.
The Hourglass Treatment at Haven Spa Mercer leaves skin feeling moisturized, tighter, and firmer. It’s a distinctive spa experience ideal for special occasions or pre-vacation preparation.
