Spent 30 min painting myself with four different types of muds and baking under heat lamps. Then, got up off the slate tiles and began exfoliating myself with a hand mitt the spa provides while slowly rinsing the muds down the drain. This spa is a relaxing and renewing place. Before the "muditation" experience, I sat beside a fireplace in my robe and slippers (also provided by Skin Sense) and sipped Russian tea while reading a magazine in the dim-lit company of other spa-goers. After the mudding, I retired to the ladies locker room where the steam room opened my pores while cucumber slices and cold washcloths soothed my eyelids. Then, entered the shower and used the natural shampoo, conditioner and body wash that the spa provides along with a disposable razor. Skin sense offers so many amenities that it feels just like home . . . but better.
