TO EXPECT UPON ARRIVAL

This time is all about you.

into a fresh robe and pair of slippers.

lounge to wash away
outside baggage and to prepare for
your journey.
QUALITY
OF TREATMENT
All of our massage and skincare therapists, as well as our nail
technicians, have been hand picked to guarantee you the best treatments
possible. If you are unsatisfied with anything, please let us know.
WHERE
TO KEEP YOUR CLOTHING/VALUABLES
Lockers are provided for your personal belongings if you are having
multiple treatments, otherwise your clothing will remain with you
in the room during your single treatment.
DURING
THE TREATMENT
Relax completely. Let the therapist do all the work. There is no
need to talk at all! Remove clothing only if you’re comfortable;
you can keep on whatever you like. We’ll do our best to make
you as at ease as possible. Please let us know if there is anything
more we can do!
NEVER
HAD A FACIAL?
Your makeup will be removed at the beginning of the treatment. If
you would like to remove it yourself, please do so before the treatment,
otherwise our skincare therapist will be happy to properly cleanse
your skin.
You will be asked
to remove all jewelry for the treatment. Although lockers will be
provided for you to store your valuables, if you feel uncomfortable
doing this, we recommend that you leave them at home if possible.
In order to protect your clothing, you will be offered a toweling
wrap to wear in order to keep your neck sufficiently exposed for
optimal treatment. If you prefer, you may leave your clothing on.
However this may impede any treatments to the neck and chest areas.
The basic steps
of a facial (this may vary according to treatment or skin type)
include a light cleansing, complete skin analysis, exfoliation,
deep cleansing, facial massage, masque, followed by a final cleansing.
NEVER
HAD A MASSAGE?
After filling out our short medical questionnaire, you will be escorted
to the treatment room by your therapist. They will then give you
a few minutes to get comfortable on the table as you begin the relaxation
process.
You may remove
all of your clothing and drape yourself underneath a sheet. If you
don’t feel comfortable doing this, feel free to leave on any
articles of clothing, but keep in mind you will never be inappropriately
exposed at any time during the treatment.
Throughout the session, please let yourself relax
and don’t feel as if you must converse with your massage therapist.
You are not expected to move a muscle during your treatment. Try
to disengage your muscles as much as possible and pretend that you
are a limp rag doll lying on the table. Allow your therapist to
position and adjust your limbs as necessary. Some guests even like
to use their time to fall asleep on the table.
If needed, feel
free to let your therapist know if they should use more or less
pressure. Also, remind them of any problem areas if you feel they
need extra attention. Remember, this time is for you.
ADDING
a SERVICE to your visit
If you would like to add on a service at the time of a pre-scheduled
treatment, please let us know upon your arrival. We will check and
see if there is availability in the schedule, and try our best to
accommodate you.
CAN
I CHOOSE A MALE OR FEMALE THERAPIST?
We have both male and female massage therapists. Either gender may
be requested and are available depending on their work schedules.
We will do our best to accommodate your request.
CAN
I SHOWER WHILE THERE?
While we do provide lockers and a private changing area, please
note that our facility is not equipped with showers. All of our
services are designed to be performed without the need for showering.
In fact, our body masques are actually more effective if you don't
shower for 3-4 hours after your treatment, allowing any residual
product to remain on the skin. In addition, hot towels are available
upon request at the end of your treatment.
THE
ATMOSPHERE
Ohm Spa New York is warm, inviting,
simple, unpretentious, and chic. Fresh fruits, juice, citrus-infused
water and teas are provided for you to munch on and re-hydrate.
Rest assured that
every effort has been made to create a facility that will make you
as comfortable as possible and to induce the highest levels of relaxation.
