In Short
Stucco-colored treatment rooms, upstairs and down, glow warmly with candles, offering calming space for peaceful escape. A community of mind-body therapists offer services ranging from the spa's signature aromatherapy massage to wraps and educational seminars on feng shui. Terme was the first local spa to offer LaStone therapy, a massage using warm and cool volcanic stones aligned along the spine. Prenatal massage, shiatsu, Reiki, reflexology and an array of aromatherapy facials are also popular Terme treatments.

I just wanted to post something for anyone looking for a great spa. I found this place on citysearch and I'd like to "return the favor" if I can. This place is awesome! I was late from work and they were totally able to accomodate me. Man, was I stressed out. As soon as I walked in I knew it was special here--the unique aromas, the friendly smiles and warm greetings from everyone. They even offered to make me a cup of herbal tea to "take the edge off." I felt like I was in someone's cozy living room. My therapist was so super and worked all the spots I'd mentioned were a problem. When I left I swear it was the first time I didn't have a headache in like 3 weeks! A friend of mine got a facial and a body wrap as a gift and said they were just as wonderful as the massages, so I think next time my boss makes me work a 60-hour week I’m going to book one of those along with another massage. Sounds like heaven to me!

Being out of work for the past 3½ months has me feeling crappy more times than not these days. So when my friend bought me a gift card for a spa package with the suggestion that I take a vacation from myself I took the hint. To be honest, the vacation I needed was really for my head, and was this ever the right place! From the moment I walked in I started to feel calm. The atmosphere, muted lighting, hanging vines, amazing scents and nice people all came together to make me feel like I was in a faraway place. As much as I enjoyed my massage and facial I really enjoyed just being invited to stay and relax after my services and talk to the staff (their listening to my ramblings about being out of work is probably more like it). Everyone here really seems to want to be here doing what they’re doing. Certainly NOT my experience in my last job. I especially enjoyed my talk at the juice bar with John about taking the opportunity to re-invent myself. It was really inspiring. I’m not sure how soon I can schedule another massage or facial but I’ll definitely be back. Most likely I’ll be stopping by to relax in their lounge. Thanks for the therapy!

Ok, I have to say that the service at this spa is EXCELLENT! I got stuck in traffic, which made me 30 minutes late, but they still accommodated me and were super friendly and understanding. The problem is that 1 day after getting a massage that was a bit strong, I can barely turn my neck. I'll have to call them and let them know.
