STRESS? TENSION? THE YEARS? Oh yah. You’re feeling them.
And therein lies the problem. A beautiful flower, such as yourself? You aren’t meant to be burdened beneath life’s vexations. Where you belong is in a nearby haven, where you are made to feel as good as humanly possible. The kind of place Cleopatra herself couldn’t have dreamt up in her wildest fantasies of luxury.
In Eden Prairie, that haven is Woodhouse Spa: where every detail, space, and experience has been carefully crafted to put you at the peak of comfort and ease.
You don’t walk through the door of Woodhouse. You arrive. The concierge welcomes you by placing a warm towel in your hands. You wash away the world as aromatic essential oils begin gently nuzzling the part of your brain labeled “Relax.” You stop to smell the flowers. They’re fresh.
The nature of your pampering session? Entirely up to you, as it rightly should be.
Massage
Need a good knead? Woodhouse puts you in the right hands. Their massage therapists practice Swedish Body Balance Massage that relaxes muscles, alleviates stress, and improves flexibility; Hot Stone Massage, which improves circulation and renews balance via the smooth, soothing power of real Himalayan stone; Shirodhara, a warm-oil Ayurvedic head and scalp massage that releases mental tension; and many others, including massage for sleep restoration, athletic recovery, and maternity.
Does your capacity for unwinding know no bounds? Treat yourself to one of Woodhouse’s signature massages. Calming Retreat combines seven specialized treatments to create true head-to-toe holistic bliss: full-body exfoliation, therapeutic stone massage, neck and shoulder massage, acupressure, scalp massage, a foot scrub, and the restorative ancient art of reflexology. There is also Deep Tissue Transformation, which is too revitalizing an experience to describe in printed word. Sorry.
Enhance your massage. CBD. Cupping. Aromatherapy. Deep tissue pressure. These and other flourishes can elevate any Woodhouse massage to utter sublimity.
Facials
Your face? A perfect ten, without question. Your skin type? A fascinating subject for conversation, just as assuredly, and totally accommodated by Woodhouse’s facials, whatever it might be.
Soothe and Hydrate, which exfoliates, revives, and bestows a radiant glow to dehydrated skin. Purifying Detox, which unclogs pores, evens tone, and leaves the skin fresh and clear. Repair and Revive, which follows dual-phase exfoliation with Vitamin C antioxidant treatment and a soothing mask that hydrate skin to sheer brilliance. Firm and Renew, which combines collagen booster therapy, facial massage, and silver foil mask to rebuild firmness, repair fine lines, and restore radiance. Try any one of these treatments if you want your outward appearance to align more closely with your soul (noting that magazine readers’ souls are most beautiful of all).
Advanced Facials
Have you felt stress, tension, and/or the years harder than usual lately? Feel like you are closer to being the visible personification of absolute perfection instead by receiving the HydraFacial Deluxe: Woodhouse’s most technologically advanced facial, which integrates targeted mask, massage and LED light therapy to cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and hydrate the skin, as well as address specific skin concerns.
Has springtime not yet returned a youthful glow to your cheek? Place matters in Woodhouse’s hands. Book a HydraFacial Classic, which implements patented Vortex-Fusion technology to exfoliate, extract and hydrate skin, followed by application of antioxidants and peptides that seal in a soft lustre.
HydraFacial Express. Keravive HydraFacial. Microdermabrasion, microchannel, demaflash and dermaplane. If there is a way to treat your face very nicely and in a fashion that will leave you feeling your tippy-top best, Woodhouse has mastered its technique.
Body Treatments
Don't let your face monopolize all the TLC. Your body also deserves VIP treatment like only Woodhouse can provide!
If there were ever a body treatment worth fibbing your way out of the office early for, it’s the Holistic Body Detox. It is a dry brush exfoliation, followed by an application of sea minerals and rebalancing body mask, finished with a skin-supportive cream that detoxifies and seals in the sea’s good, good nutrients.
Just want to zen out? Tell the office you’ll also be in late, but not because you’re spoiling yourself with a mid-morning Meditative Mood Soak: a tranquil full-body therapy experience, complete with dry brushing, sensory sea mineral enriched bath, and Swedish Body Balance Massage.
Have It Your Way
Every therapy detailed thus far? Yours to choose freely from. Envision the perfect bespoke spa experience. It awaits you at Woodhouse.
Would you rather treat yourself to the perfect curated spa experience? Woodhouse’s luxury treatment bundles let you choose the best without a second’s thought. There is no better way to discover just how deeply Woodhouse can envelop you in serenity than the Ultimate Reset: a four-hour package encompassing the spa’s signature Calming Retreat, Nourishing Wrap (featuring skin care products by Phytomer, whose ingredients are primarily sourced off the French coast), and HydraFacial Deluxe.
Meet Megan Stebbing, Proprietor
Megan Stebbing loves her family and the home she made for herself upon moving to Minnesota 15 years ago. Working at her automotive service center with her husband, however, elicited decidedly less of Megan’s affection.
“Don’t get me wrong,” she said. “Spending that much time around my husband was amazing! But despite having grown up in it, auto repair is just too transactional a business for my liking. Customers aren’t there because they want to be. Quite the opposite, in fact. After telling someone they needed a new transmission for the nth time, I wanted to become the bearer of positivity for a change. I just wanted to make people happy.”
Though she had concentrated on auto repair in the course of earning her MBA, Megan desired a complete change of direction.
“Coincidentally enough, I had also done a marketing project on HydraFacial back then,” reminisced Megan. “That piqued my interest while I was researching new business ventures, noticing that Woodhouse Spa offers it.
“The more I learned about Woodhouse, the deeper I fell in love. An elevated, resort-style spa experience that makes luxury affordable and accessible to the community? A perfectly serene atmosphere, where everyone’s skin care needs are expertly attended to and there are no mechanics operating high-torque machinery in the background? Heaven.
“If 20 years in commercial sales have taught me anything, it’s that you have to believe in what you offer. If you advocate for anything, do it from a place of genuinity and authenticity.
“It has been hard work creating something for myself that lives up to that standard. Selecting a wonderful franchise was only the beginning. I had to navigate a byzantine process to get the necessary permits. I spent ages searching for sincere and nurturing staff, including fully licensed massage therapists. And as the mother of two young children, I’ve felt the sacrifice of every weekend and weeknight spent away from home.
“But now, I’ve finally got it. A happy place I truly believe in to share with the community I love, which includes donating services and providing other support to fantastic local initiatives, sports organizations, and other community programs. Woodhouse is all about Eden Prairie pride!”
