Favorite Ballaura Ritual

My wellness journey begins with a revitalizing 45-minute infrared sauna session, accompanied by LMNT salts in 20oz of water to enhance detoxification. During this time, I engage in meditation to center myself, and occasionally, I journal my reflections in the tranquil warmth.

Following the sauna, I indulge in a 90-minute full-body massage on a warmly heated table. I prefer a quiet atmosphere to maintain a deeply relaxed state, only interrupted by essential communication about the treatment. The session is enriched with therapeutic techniques like gua sha, cupping, and hot towels.

The final touch to my personal care ritual is a 60-minute facial, tailored to nourish and rejuvenate my skin, leaving it radiant and refreshed. To conclude, I enjoy a nutritious snack to replenish the energy expended during the sauna session, which can burn up to 600 calories. This sequence not only revitalizes my body and spirit but also sets the standard of care that our spa is committed to providing. As the founder and an advocate for holistic wellness, I share this ritual to inspire and enhance your own path to well-being.

She spent that time soaking up everything she could about massage therapy and saw the noticeable change in others’ physical and mental wellbeing after massage treatments. The clear and positive effect that massage has on others motivates Becca to provide excellent customer service to our guests, so that they are not only satisfied with their treatment, but enthused about the overall experience.

Favorite Ballaura Ritual

My favorite way to prepare for a massage is to put on my most comfortable outfit, drink plenty of water and make myself a nutritious breakfast. Shortly before the session, I take 10 minutes to turn off my phone and clear my mind so I can fully relax. After the session, I like to treat myself to a hot bath with essential oils and Epsom salt.

Delaney

Delaney has a passion for supporting people in wellness & recovery. Delaney has been in the spa industry since 2021 and knows the ins and outs of caring for clients from check in to check out. Delaney has experienced chronic pain and has benefited from chiropractic, massage, and physical therapy, which lead her to support LMTs and those who need massage.

She strives to encourage wellness, harmony, and balance for those she serves.

Favorite Ballaura Ritual

I start by getting optimal rest before my treatment and clearing my schedule for a full restoration day. That way I can focus solely on my self-care. After my massage, I’ll take a warm bath with Epsom salts, a candle, and music or Netflix, along with a nice cold glass of water.

Andrea

SPA COORDINATOR

After experiencing a car accident several years ago, my first medical massage became a pivotal moment in my life. It revealed the profound impact that compassionate, hands-on care can have—not only in supporting physical recovery, but also in nurturing mental and emotional well-being. This experience inspired a lasting dedication to wellness and a passion for supporting others on their own healing and self-care journeys. Since 2022, I have served at the front desk at Ballaura Wellness Spa, where I am committed to creating a warm and welcoming environment for every guest. I take pride in building genuine connections, listening with empathy, and ensuring that each individual feels seen, comfortable, and cared for from the moment they arrive. My goal is for every guest to leave feeling as empowered and renewed as I did—experiencing the transformative benefits of massage, where healing, relaxation, and trust are always the top priorities.

Favorite Ballaura Ritual

My favorite Ballaura ritual before a massage is to get a good nights rest, making sure to have a healthy, balanced meal and stretching beforehand to loosen up my muscles. After my massage I like to take it easy, such as going on a 20 minute walk to wake up my body, and relaxing afterwards at home with a nice nap and drinking lots of water through out the day!

Olivia

SPA Coordinator

I truly believe in the principle that you cannot care for others unless you care for yourself first. You cannot pour from an empty cup! Here at Ballaura, we take the time to honor and celebrate the practice of self care. What I love about our services is that they allow individuals to slow down and reconnect with themselves in an otherwise fast paced and chaotic world. As a spa coordinator, my goal is to support every Ballaura guest’s experience with spirited and kind customer service. Wherever you are in your healing journey, we are happy to be a part of it.

I’m born and raised in California and moved here in 2020. I just love nature and spending time with family and friends outdoors. I love connecting with people from all walks of life to learn new and amazing things you can’t learn in a book or on the internet.

Favorite Ballaura Ritual

I like to eat an hour before, and have plenty of water before a massage. If I have the time take a nap when I get home.
