What Should I Wear to the Spa?

At Rapunzel’s, we pride ourselves on being non-pretentious. Your comfort is our priority! We recommend wearing comfortable clothes or just wearing what you feel the most relaxed in. You will be asked to remove all jewelry; therefore we strongly recommend leaving all jewelry at home. Spa robe and slip­pers will be pro­vided.

I've Never Been To a Spa Before, What Should I Expect?

No worries. Our expert staff will walk you through the treatment, explaining what you’ll be experiencing at the beginning of each treatment.

Do I Have to Get Completely Undressed For a Massage or Facial?

This is completely your choice. Most people choose to undress completely, and some choose to leave on their underwear. Prior to your massage or facial, your therapist will exit the room for you to get completely comfortable. During a massage treatment, we use a draping technique in which the therapist will use the sheet to cover the entire body except for the body part being worked on. During your facial, you’ll be wearing a wrap under the sheet that allows your neck, arms and decollete to be exposed for treatments. Guests under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian in the room during treatments or outside the door with the door open.

Can I Choose a Male or Female Therapist?

We have both male and female therapists, so just let us know which you prefer when you book your appointment. If no preference is made we will book you with the therapist that is available at your requested time.

What Is The Spa's Cell Phone Policy?

Cell phone use is pro­hib­ited on spa premises and all cel­lu­lar devices should be turned off or placed on silent prior to enter­ing spa.

Is Alcohol Permitted In The Spa?

Alcohol is permitted with notification to management.

What's The Difference Between Swedish and Deep Tissue Massage?

Swedish massage is the most popular massage in the United States. The benefits of Swedish massage include increased blood circulation, mental and physical relation, decrease stress and muscle tension and improve range of motion. Deep tissue focuses on the deepest layers to help relieve aches and pains stored in the tissue, tendons and fascia.

Will I Be Sore After a Massage

Since massage therapy is releasing lactic acid and other toxins – which crystallized in the muscle – it can sometimes leave you sore. It’s important to communicate with your therapist regarding your expectations, as well as your current state of health. Your therapist then can tailor the massage to meet your personal needs and desires, and make adjustments to the intensity or technique as the session proceeds.

Is it Safe To Get a Massage After a Workout?

Absolutely! This is a perfect time to receive a massage to decrease the inflammation caused by the workout.

Will My Skin Look Right After a Facial

Usually you will leave with glowing skin, but everyone’s skin is different. Our facials do come with extractions, so some redness may occur right after the facial.

How Long Does it Take For My Nails to Dry After a Manicure or Pedicure?

It can take several hours to let your nails dry. It is best to wait a minimum of two hours after a pedicure before putting closed-toe shoes on to save the integrity of the nail treatment.

How Long Should My Hair Be For Waxing

For optimal results for waxing, hair should be between 1/4″ to 1/2″ in length.  If hair is longer, please trim to 1/4″ prior to your appointment.  After hair removal, we recommend avoiding sun exposure, pools, salt water, and Jacuzzi’s for 24 hours to lessen the chances of bacterial infection.
