MASSAGE. IT’S WHAT WE DO.

We’re not a something-for-everyone day spa.

We don’t do nails, we don’t do hair. We’re specialists and we concentrate on what we do best: massages and facials.

Our passion is helping you feel great about yourself. We want your visit to Equinox to be the highlight not just of your day, but of your whole week or month. Our guests feel more like friends or family than visitors.

Welcome to Equinox.

MASSAGE THERAPY

Rejuvenation starts here. Maybe it’s that you feel that your body is a perpetual-motion machine. Maybe stress is taking its toll. Or maybe you’re remembering just how restorative a massage can be. For so many questions we can think of, it’s amazing how often “massage” is the perfect answer.

From warm stone massage to raindrop therapy, we offer a wide variety of massage techniques, each performed by capable, caring licensed massage therapists.

Couples Massage

We have transformed the very best room in our historic building into a place of warmth and tranquility, the perfect place for you and a special person to enjoy a soothing Therapeutic or Hot Stone massage. As with our other massages, you’ll be treated to heated tables and hot steamed towels. Prepare to be pampered together as we tend to you with professional, experienced and tender care. As a reminder, we’re available weekends including Sunday. And one important note: Because Couples Massage has become such a popular offering of ours, please make plans in advance, especially for weekends.
Available in 60 or 90 minute sessions.
Starting at $150


Warm Stone Massage

One of the most relaxing ways to feel the stress melt away is a Hot Stone Massage. This ancient form of therapy features the use of Basalt river rocks, heated and dipped in a rich essential oil blend for deep, therapeutic benefits. Afterwards, you will feel truly restored.
Starting at:
(60 min) $85

(90 min) $125


Rain Drop Therapy

Nine pure essential oils are dropped individually onto your spine and then massaged with light strokes, dispersing the oils along the body’s nervous system.

Starting at:
(60 min) $90

Swedish

This classic full-body massage is excellent for relieving stress and tension. Flowing strokes increase circulation and allow the entire body to relax.
Starting at:
(30 min) $45

(60 min) $75
(90 min) $115


Tui Na Massage Therapy

This Chinese style therapy uses rhythmic compression, helping to bring the body back into balance. It is especially effective for easing specific aches and pains brought on by such ailments as sciatica, arthritis, headaches, etc. Many of our clients combine this therapy with another massage technique, such as Swedish, to achieve the highest therapeutic and relaxation value.

BODY TREATMENTS

Ear Candling

Ear Candling is a safe, effective way to keep your ears free from excess moisture and the build-up of earwax and toxins. Candling works by creating a vacuum-like effect that can regulate the pressure, assist with postnasal drip, sinusitis, some forms of hearing loss, and restoration of equilibrium. We recommend the use of four candles (2 per ear), especially if this is your first time.
Approximately 15 minutes per candle
Starting at: per candle $16


Dry Brushing

The benefits of this old and well-proven European technique are numerous. Not only does dry brushing help the condition of the skin itself by removing the build-up of dead skin cells, it naturally stimulates lymphatic drainage and the elimination of as much as one-third of body wastes. This stimulating technique, which can be a wonderful prelude to most body treatments, may also be added to any of the massage treatments. Afterwards, the dry brush is yours to keep so you may continue enjoying the benefits at home.
Add $15 to massage cost


Organic Body Scrub

An invigorating treatment to smooth and soften your skin during the hot summer months. First, your skin will be cleansed with our organic Cranberry/Naseberry body wash and then lightly exfoliated using massage gloves and the cooling Cucumber Mint sugar scrub, full of antioxidants and rich in nutrients. Hot steamed towels then prepare your skin for the tantalizing Sugar Plum crème, leaving your skin feeling renewed, healthy and glowing. Try it as a wonderful beginning to one of our massage treatments.

Approximately 30 minutes $50-$75


Organic Foot Treatment

If you love having your feet massaged, then this is the perfect treatment for you. The treatment begins with an organic cleanser and the application of hot, steamed towels. Then enjoy an invigorating and cooling Cucumber/Mint exfoliation which we use to remove rough, dry surface skin and improve circulation. Then feel your tension melt away as you enjoy a foot massage featuring a soothing and restoring Mandarin Grapefruit body butter.

Approximately 30 minutes $45
Add Essential oils to any treatment $10


Reiki

Reiki is an age-old technique for stress reduction and relaxation that promote healing and balance. This method is based on the idea that a universal life force flows through all aspects of our being. When there are blockages or congestion of this life force, we experience low energy, distress, pain and illness. A healing session is administered by "laying on of hands" while you relax fully clothed on the table in a nurturing environment.

1 Hour—Starting at $75

FACIAL TREATMENTS

Facial treatments are about a lot more than merely looking your best. We’re interested in your skin’s health, too. Our approach to facials, along with everything else we do, is holistic: We look at more than your skin and consider your lifestyle, including stress, nutrition and more.

Based on your wishes and needs, our treatments are customized to find the perfect balance between skin refinement and relaxation. Of course, we use only the finest organic products. You’ll walk out looking great, and know that you did something healthy for yourself, too.

      I have found that when we take time to pause and listen to our bodies, healing is possible on many levels. My 8 years of experience with myofascial release, neuromuscular therapy, and deep tissue techniques have given me a skillset that allows for integration, balance, and relief.

        One of my specialties is the Tui Na massage therapy, which uses rhythmic compression techniques to facilitate the flow of Qi, or life energy, throughout the body in order to bring it back in balance. It is wonderful treatment for specific aches and pains, and perfectly complements a companion treatment such as Swedish Massage.

              It is an honor to offer my clients the opportunity to fully relax and feel at one with their bodies. My treatments combine gentle Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, myofascial release and specific therapeutic palpatory work to facilitate relaxation, relief from pain, and ease of movement.

                  FAQs

                  How far in advance should I schedule an appointment?

                  It depends on the season, the day of the week you prefer, and the time of day. On occasion, we can serve you on short notice, though weekends and evenings tend to be very popular. It’s always best to provide as much advance notice as possible.

                  What should I expect during my first visit?

                  To be greeted warmly and welcomed into our very soothing and relaxing environment. We would like to ask you to arrive at least ten minutes early for your first visit so you’ll have time to fill out a brief questionnaire on your health history. We’ll also ask you to remove all jewelry and makeup before body treatments and massage therapy—we recommend leaving valuables at home. It’s also a good idea to bathe or shower before your appointment.

                  What if I need to cancel or I’m late for my appointment?

                  The treatments you select are reserved and planned especially for you. We understand that sometimes cancellations are necessary, but please let us know at least 24 hours in advance for cancelling appointments scheduled for Monday-Thursday and 48 hours in advance for weekend appointments, couples massages, and appointments for which you’ve scheduled more than one service. Cancellations that do not meet the advance notice requirements above will incur a 50% service charge; no-shows will be charged the entire service amount. Unfortunately, late arrivals will not receive the full appointment time scheduled but will be charged for the entire appointment. Each guest’s leisure time is valuable and precious. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

                  What methods of payment do you accept?

                  All services are reserved with a valid credit card. For your convenience we accept: Cash, Mastercard, Visa, American Express, and Discover.

                  Why do rates vary?

                  Prices may vary somewhat based on the individual therapist caring for you. Please inquire for more details. Prices are subject to change without notice.

                  Gratuities. What’s the norm?

                  Gratuities are not included in treatments, services, or gift certificates, but are discretional.

                  EQUINOX EARNS TRAVEL GREEN WISCONSIN CERTIFICATION

                  The Wisconsin Department of Tourism has designated Equinox – The Body & Soul Boutique a member of its Travel Green Wisconsin™ program. Travel Green Wisconsin is a voluntary, affordable certification that reviews, certifies, and recognizes tourism businesses that have made a commitment to continuously improve their operations in order to reduce their environmental impact.

                  To qualify for certification, the business must earn a minimum of 35 points as defined under their Basic Requirements. Equinox earned a total of 49 points as it has initiated numerous “green” practices into their business.

                  Equinox has been certified as a GREEN SPA with their Eminence Skin Care line. Every time an Eminence Skin Care active organic or Biodynamic product is purchased, a portion of the proceeds is put towards planting a tree to help clean our air. Thanks to Equinox, nearly 4,000 trees through the “Forests for the Future” program have been planted since November 2012.

                  Equinox has taken further efforts to go “green” by installing cork flooring, which is both recycled and durable, and by replacing all paper towel in their washrooms with hand towels. Also, Equinox adds essential oils to their drinking water to increase the release of toxins so the water keeps longer and there is no need to dispose of it daily.

                  Equinox has been highlighted for its exceptional environmental performance and efforts to educate the community about sustainability. It joins these Kenosha Area businesses that are already Travel Green certified: Kenosha Public Museum, Civil War Museum, Dinosaur Discovery Museum, Kenosha Area Transit, Richard Bong State Recreation Area, and the Kenosha Area Convention & Visitors Bureau’s two Visitor Information Centers.

                  Travel Green Wisconsin™ was the first of its kind in the nation and serves as a model to promote environmentally-friendly practices in the tourism industry. The program is unique for its inclusion of all tourism-related businesses and organizations including but not limited to attractions, events, accommodations, outfitters, restaurants, retail, visitor centers and more.
