Amanda’s Massage and Bodycare

Amanda’s Massage and Bodycare

By Kimberly Wilson

ATMOSPHERE/AURA - Charming, quaint and altogether reminiscent of another time period. Treatment rooms have dimmed lighting and as you lay under heated blankets, soft mellow notes waft through the air tickling your ears while aromatic oils tease the senses.

STAFF - Friendly and knowledgeable about the Napa Valley area. Ask for restaurant and winery recommendations and upcoming Napa Valley events.

SERVICES - Massages are performed with scented oils which are heavenly to breathe in. Try one of the four scented aromatherapy oils – Relieve, Revitalize, Relax, and Restore – with your massage. One masseuse used several fist-in-a-ball techniques across my shoulders and neck to create a loose, fluid feel to the entire upper half of my body. In addition to massage therapy, the spa also offers an array of body treatments (Shea Butter Body Wrap, Ear Candling, Hot Stone Hand & Foot with Reflexology, etc.) and manicures and pedicures.

PRICE – Very reasonable and affordable. Treatments range from as little as $22 for manicures to $75 for body treatments like Hot Stone Hand & Foot with Reflexology. Amanda’s Massage also offers spa packages which are higher in price, but are great values.

TIPS & SUGGESTIONS

(1) Keep in mind that there is only one station for manicures and pedicures if you are planning a “Girls Gone Wild” day consisting mainly of nail treatments. (

2) In the rainy season, call one to two days ahead for an appointment and Amanda’s Massage will more than likely have availability. However, things heat up in the summer, so be sure to make advance reservations if making future travel plans.
