Inspired by plant-based healing traditions from around the world, AVEDA spa and skin care philosophy- Elemental Nature^TM- is grounded in the time-honored belief that everything in the universe, and in ourselves, is composed of five elements: infinity, air, fire, water and earth. When environmental and emotional factors such as lifestyle, diet or stress cause these natural elements to shift out of balance, your sense of well-being, skin and spirit are negatively impacted.

The Elemental Nature^TM experience starts with a consultation to determine each client's predominant elemental influence- and the underlying causes of imbalance-in order to create a personalized treatment. Emphasis is also placed on self-care techniques and products, in order to sustain balance through an on-going lifestyle program at home. This philosophy is the foundation of AVEDA development, and allows you to uniquely treat each guest in every respect- from service and treatment to personalized product sales.

An individualized experience that people come back for.
