A time for you...urban salons and spas
When the pace of life – rush, rush, work, work, play, play – starts taking its toll on your energy and appearance, it is time for some well-deserved pampering. Escaping for the stresses of everyday life is easier than you might think, with a visit to one of Edinburgh’s beauty salons or spas. Whether you have 10 minutes to spare for a quick fix or a whole day to relax and unwind, there are options aplenty to suit. This time is for you...
For a quick grooming session bikini or underarm waxing can take as little as ten minutes at Odyssey Boutique on William Street. If you have a little more time and are after a healthy day they also have Fake Bake spray tanning – or let the real diva inside you out with a luxury manicure, pedicure or and eyelash extensions, all of which can even be scheduled in your lunch hour!
Stress is reflected in your face, if you still want to feel fresh and rejuvenate your skin but are stretched for time, we recommend a Thirty Minute Facial at Zest Beauty on Haddington Place, at the top of Leith Walk. Their CACI Hydratone treatment has been specifically developed to provide immediate and intensive skin hydration and face firming - after just one treatment it promises remarkably more radiant and youthful appearance.
For something steamy why not completely relax and unwind with a firm body massage, magically easing accumulated tensions and stresses out of your system. Dee Taylor at The Tao Clinic on Alva Street offers tailored massages to suit your needs specialising in Aromatherapy massages, Indian Head massage, reflexology and healing Reiki treatments. Time doesn’t need to be a problem - you could benefit from one of these in just 30 minutes and head back to the office after your lunch break fully rejuvianted!
For something a bit different and to really revitalise and energise, the intimate and relaxed Inside and Out on Haymarket Terrace offer the Marine Prelude. This unique treatment is THE exfoliation therapy, combining natural sea salts and marine mud. It eliminates dead skin cells, smoothing and refining skin texture whilst invigorating the entire body by activating microcirculation. This truly is a real treat to take your mind off life’s little trials and tribulations.
To truly unwind, The Essential Relax package by Essential Therapy on Broughton Street combines mineral salt scrub therapy, Dermalogica Skin Treatment and a Back, Neck and Shoulder Massage really will sooth, calm and then revitalise.
