Healing in Nature.

Chico Spa, a therapeutic day spa sheltered by old growth fir and cedar, is located on a tranquil inlet of Puget Sound on the Kitsap Peninsula. The experience here is water therapy, attended by Dr. Cathy Rogers, naturopathic physician. The spa is a rejuvenating refuge, set in her childhood home, a 1930s Craftsman. The place has spirit: from the muted stone fireplace to an elegantly transformed room at water’s edge for sauna, brushing and steaming, it radiates hospitality. The restful setting invites guests to unwind and replenish.

Attended Water Therapies Detoxify and Refresh

Attended water therapy treatments, refreshing purifications adapted to individual needs, blend several elements to stimulate and support the body’s self-healing power. The 2.5-hour sequence includes: dry skin brushing; two rounds of heating — sauna and steam tent — each followed by a short cool dip; and a deeply relaxing float in a warm bath of herbs and seaweed in an outdoor tub overlooking the inlet and Mt. Rainier, waves lapping beneath.

The attendant assures your comfort and safety during a session. You surrender to the bath, an evocative experience in which the mind is free to rest or discover fresh images from within. Follow the water therapy with a delicious massage, foot reflexology, a meditative labyrinth walk, or nourishing rest by the fire or on the deck — and you have a perfect day. Every cell cleansed and invigorated.

Bodywork

Chico’s massage therapists are masters of a number of body therapies. Expert hands offer diverse special massage treatments to relax and energize your whole being: Swedish, Deep Tissue, Reflexology, Therapeutic, and more.

Foot Reflexology

Reflex points relating to all parts of the body are found in the feet. Pressing or massaging each zone stimulates nerve impulses to corresponding organs and body parts to relieve pain and stress, improve circulation, and support the body to cleanse.

Treatment elements available separately

Different elements of attended treatments — skin brushing, soaks, sauna, steams, massage and reflexology — are available separately. Consult Dr. Rogers to create the blend specific for your needs, and see Rates page for combinations and prices.
