Elevate Your Self-Care Ritual

Restore your body, reset your soul

Every new year presents the opportunity to rethink personal goals and consider some new ones, like prioritizing self-care, health, and wellness.

The power of touch can transform, and there are few things as indulgent as a soothing massage. Satisfy that feeling at The NOW Massage, designed as an oasis to disconnect from the outside world and reconnect within with high-quality, customizable massage services. Their elevated aesthetic, inspired by exotic destinations around the world, boasts plenty of natural wood, sheep skins, cactus galleries, and synergistic grids, creating the ultimate Zen environment for stress relief, relaxation, and muscle recovery.

Massage therapists at The NOW receive advanced training on the custom menu that goes far beyond traditional modalities, including the Swedish-inspired NOW signature relaxation massage, the HEALER, an energy-balancing massage designed to reduce stress, and the STRETCH, a sports-inspired recovery massage. Located in charming Tivoli Village, The NOW offers a wide variety of services, including Herbal Heat Therapy, Hemp Calm Balm, and Gua Sha, a traditional Chinese medicine technique using smooth rose quartz tools to target specific areas of the body.

Consistency is key to receiving the maximum benefits from massage therapy. The NOW’s Ritual Membership offers a bi-monthly self-care routine with packages that include savings on massages, roll-over credits, perks, and more. The NOW Boutique is stocked and offers the exclusive Gara Danielle Jewelry line. You can also purchase some best-selling products like the NOURISH Refresh Eye Mask, Body Oil, and their signature Jasmine Coconut Candle to create a mini staycation at home.  

Highly sought-after celebrity injector, Melanie Speed APRN, NP-C, CANS, opened Flawless Aesthetics Med Spa in 2014, offering a variety of renowned non-surgical cosmetic and wellness treatments. "At Flawless Med Spa, we are committed to providing our clients with a confidence boost by enhancing their natural beauty.” Immerse yourself in the latest trends in cosmetic and aesthetic medicine in the center of Sun City Summerlin at Del Webb and Lake Mead Boulevard as the Flawless team helps unlock a more radiant and confident you by using lip fillers, dermal fillers, Botox, and revitalizing facials.

Have you been waiting to get your lips plumped or to try Botox, but you haven’t yet because you’re afraid of the pain? Flawless is excited to be the only medical spa in Las Vegas to offer pain-free cosmetic injections with the ProNox aesthetic system. It gives the patient total control to administer it with a gas mixture delivered through single-use disposable tubing with a mouthpiece. ProNox has a quick onset, usually within the first several seconds of administration, with no downtime, as the safe and effective mixture is cleared from the body within minutes.
