Central Oregon Beauty Services: The Best Spa Services in Central Oregon

Some of the top spa services in the country are located in Central Oregon. This is in part due to the fact that there are so many destination resorts here. For such a small part of the Pacific Northwest, Central Oregon has an incredible number of spas and if you ever want to experience the best of the best keep Central Oregon in mind!

We will only focus on 3 of the spas located at destination resorts here in Central Oregon but again, there are many, many more in the major cities of Central Oregon. We'll see those on another day of touring this region but for now, we'll explore the 3 resorts and their spas - and what they have to offer.

Our virtual tour for today will cover Sage Springs Club and Spa, The Spa at Black Butte Ranch and the Spa and wellness Center at Pronghorn.

Keep in mind that all 3 of these destination resorts are geared towards pampering their guests and helping them to enjoy the vacation of a lifetime. Each of these destination resorts is the perfect place to go to 'get it all' and never have to leave because everything is right there.

Even though I don't go often, spa services are for everyone.  From time to time, hand and foot appointments are wonderful indulgences - and make the best gifts.

Massages are by far my favorite spa service though.  Most specifically hot stone massages are the most relaxing treatment or spa service I've ever had and most often the gift I receive for services.  It is a little piece of heaven to feel the healing warmth of the basalt stones followed by a deep tissue massage.

Makeup spa services for special events are also not only fun but serve a great purpose.  When our daughter got married, we all went together before the event and had pedicures, manicures and then makeup application.  That was a special treat and it really did help everyone relax and not worry so much about how they looked!

Spa services are even for men though.  Although my husband balked at my gift of a hot stone massage for our anniversary, when he came out of the room, he was sold.  He said that he had never thought about indulging in massage services but he, too loved the combination of hot basalt stone massage followed by deep tissue massage. 

There is much to be said for spa services as a form of relaxation and tension relief.  Massage spa services are also a great form of therapy for chronic conditions such as tendinitis, fibromyalgia and arthritis. 

Spa trips are generally associated with pleasure. The whole point behind going to a spa is usually to relax or have someone perform a service for you that will either help you look better or feel better.

Spa services range from facials to nails to full body massage to waxing. There is a wide variety of services as you will see - for instance a mud pack is available - or a hot rock massage - or a bikini waxing - or a pedicure complete with massage. There are also great combo packages available at some spas.

Some tips on spa services:

• Make sure you book your spa treatments in advance - most are not done by walk-in
  
• Be aware that prices may vary according to the level of service - for instance a 'regular' pedicure may be $40 while a 'deluxe' pedicure may be $60. Always ask first so there will be no surprises
• Ask about payment methods - debit card, credit card, checks - always best to know before you go to pay
• Dress comfortably for whatever service you're having - if you're having a pedicure, wearing tennis shoes is okay but you might be better off wearing flip-flops until your polish has dried
• Shower before a massage so that your skin feels fresh and clean - if you've used a pool before the massage, make sure you shower off the chlorine as it can make your skin dry and brittle
• If having a facial or makeup applied, use as little makeup as possible before the facial and go easy on jewelry application
• Make sure you request a male or female practitioner if you have a preference ahead of time - thus avoiding surprises if you would rather not have a man giving you a massage for instance
  
• If you have special needs, such as being pregnant, make sure you let them know ahead of time and possibly request someone specializing in pregnancy massage for instance
• During the course of a body massage or even a foot massage during a pedicure, if the pressure is too much, don't be afraid to say so - spa services are supposed to be relaxing and your comfort is the most important part of the service
• Always leave your cell phone off during spa services - it should be a time of relaxation - for all customers and it can be distracting to others trying to relax
• Don't bring children or pets to spa services appointments unless you have inquired first and have gotten the okay for this - most customers do not enjoy having children and pets distract them from their spa service treatments
• If beverages or snacks are offered, be courteous and clean up after yourself - meaning throw away disposable cups or paper
• Depending on the service you are receiving, ask about clothing - and go with what you feel is appropriate. For instance, many people leave on their panties or underwear when having a full body massage but remove everything else. It is strictly up to the individual and geared to the spa service being performed
  
• Use only the towels or items you are provided with and don't take more unless you've asked for them
  
• Tipping should be between 10% and 20% depending on how you felt the spa service went. It is customary to tip after the service and as you are finishing up paying for the service.  Be aware that some spa services include the tip in the price so it pays to ask!
