Field of Hammocks - Already A New Favorite!
| 
Guests are already in love with our newest garden and treatment offering at Osmosis. Here's what people are saying; "The Zen Garden is a very special place. Each time we visit it seems even more beautiful. Very peaceful setting. Now there is more seating which is great. The benches are lovely and everything is esthetically pleasing and calm. We love the new hammock garden!! Rested and listened to music after my spa treatment... it was fantastic! Like an extension of my massage! Trees rustling in the wind, hammock gently swaying, meditation music filling my senses, what a wonderful way to continue the experience at the spa! A brilliant addition to an already wonderful place!" - Dianna S.
In September, add some 'hang time' and sound therapy to your visit available at the introductory rate of $10 with any other service. |
