An Overview of Treatments and Services

The Spa Montage offers the following massage therapies, facials, and body treatments for your choosing.

1. Massages

Spa Montage offers several massages, ranging in length from 60 to 120 minutes, depending on your preferences. Each massage targets different areas of the body and can be customized based on your physical and emotional needs. Whether you prefer a soothing, warm stone massage, intense therapeutic muscle work, or foot reflexology, you’re sure to find the proper treatment. You can even add massage enhancements to your service to further customize your experience.

2. Body Treatments

In addition to massages, Spa Montage offers various treatments to further rejuvenate your body. For example, the Full Body Peel is designed to stimulate deep renovation of the upper layers of the epidermis to tighten and contour the skin. Or, consider receiving the Body Firming Detox to promote circulation and stimulate the lymphatic system.

One of the most popular treatments is the Carolina Kur Experience—inspired by the South’s rivers and oceans. This body treatment includes an invigorating full-body exfoliation and a soothing full-body mud masque and concludes with the application of nourishing shea body butter to seal hydration into the skin.

3. Facials

Aside from body treatments, Spa Montage also offers facials that will have you glowing from the inside out. With different brands of facials, you can select one that suits your skin needs and preferences. 

In addition to traditional facials, Spa Montage also offers advanced HydraFacials, which provide cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, and hydration using Vortex-Fusion™ technology. If you are unsure which facial is best for your skin type, the skincare specialists at Spa Montage can recommend one that will leave you feeling radiant.

4. Chemical Peels

Consider receiving a chemical peel if you’re looking for an incredibly revitalizing facial treatment. At Spa Montage, our professional chemical peel solutions are formulated by Sanitas Skincare to provide deep exfoliation and accelerated cell rejuvenation. Following the application of these powerfully active ingredients, you will notice an overall improvement in texture, brightened skin, diminished fine lines and wrinkles, and many other skin-soothing benefits.

5. Nail Services

Last but not least, a nail service is the perfect finishing touch to a relaxing day at Spa Montage. The luxurious nail treatments include deep cleansing, exfoliation, and massage with botanical lotions or oils, followed by a hot towel wrap and natural nail polish. That way, you can leave the spa looking and feeling your best!
