Services Offered
Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine are some of the core offerings here. Acupuncture involves placing very thin needles at specific points on the body to relieve pain, reduce stress, and promote overall health. Awakening Wellness provides initial and follow-up acupuncture sessions, cosmetic facial acupuncture, cupping, gua sha (a scraping technique), and herbal medicine. These treatments aim to restore energy flow and improve well-being naturally.
For those interested in energy healing, the spa offers Reiki sessions, including Reiki Chakra Burst and full Reiki Healing. Reiki is a gentle, hands-on method that helps balance your energy and promotes deep relaxation and healing.
Massage therapy is one of the most popular services at Awakening Wellness. They offer many types of massages such as deep tissue, hot stone, prenatal, couples massage, aromatherapy, and manual lymphatic drainage. Clients often praise the therapists for their skill and ability to relieve tension and persistent knots. Many visitors mention how their massages helped them sleep better and feel less stressed, making it a favorite spot for massage therapy along the 30A corridor.
The spa also specializes in facials using Eminence Organic Skin Care products, known for their natural and effective ingredients. Facials include custom enzyme treatments, acne facials, microdermabrasion, LED skin therapy, and gentle options safe for sensitive skin, pregnancy, and autoimmune conditions. These facials deeply nourish the skin and leave it glowing without harsh chemicals.
Body treatments such as organic body wraps, salt glows, and hydrating body polishes help exfoliate and refresh your skin. The spa also offers waxing and tinting services for both men and women, including eyebrow shaping, Brazilian waxing, full leg waxing, and lash tinting.
One of the innovative treatments available is red light therapy, which uses low-wavelength red light to penetrate the skin and promote healing. This therapy helps reduce muscle soreness, improve circulation, and speed up tissue repair. It’s a non-invasive way to boost recovery and relaxation.
