Your wedding day is almost here. Months of planning that special day can be stressful and overwhelming. Imagine you and your bridal party, dressed in robes, in a private room with some champagne and a charcuterie board to snack on while each of you take turns getting a massage to relieve the tension in the entire body. It is that Ahh moment you have been waiting for, recognizing the need to unwind and relax with your bridal party before the big day.
Salted Peace, located in Spring Hill, will provide that relaxing moment with the ones dear to your heart that have seen you through the stressful moments of wedding planning. They offer a variety of bridal packages that include Massages, Facials, Vibrational Frequency Table (sound therapy for the body), and their popular beach themed Salt Room.
Your facial will get you prepared to look your best on your wedding day. Warm steam opening your pores as the experienced estheticians cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize your skin to perfection. Indulge on their one-of-a-kind Vibrational Frequency Table which utilizes 432 hz music to relax and heal the body. A great addition to enhance your massage and facial experience! Make sure to tidy up those brows or remove any unwanted facial hair with one of the many waxing services available while you are there too.
Salted Peace Salt Therapy Room
Wrap up your amazing day as the entire bridal party gathers in the beach themed Salt Therapy Room designed for the ultimate relaxing moment. Himalayan salt covers the floor, sea salt covers the walls, palm trees surround you, and the sounds of waves crashing on the beach make you feel like you truly are at your favorite beach. A machine called a Halogenerator crushes and pulverizes pharmaceutical grade salt (99.99% pure salt) into a powder and disperses it into the room. The pure salt is naturally antibacterial and anti-inflammatory to help open your airways and sinuses as you breath in the salt particles. This can help relieve symptoms of chronic
conditions like COPD, asthma, and cystic fibrosis to common colds, flu, bronchitis, pneumonia, and after COVID residual effects. The salt is also great for helping skin conditions like psoriasis, eczema, rosacea, and even ear infections. In addition, salt therapy is great for reducing anxiety and stress which makes this amazing service icing on the cake for your bridal party. Laugh, share stories, relax, and take deep breaths knowing that each of you deserve this very special moment. n
