Gardnerville residents Dacia Lentz and Linda Beekhof are hoping that people in the mood for serious relaxation and self-maintenance will visit their new day spa on the second floor of the Mountain View Professional Center in Gardnerville.
"It's not just about beauty," said Lentz. "It's about stress relief and health, people feeling better both mentally and physically."
Restoration Spa opened on May 1, offering two massage rooms and a skin care room with a facial steaming machine and a high-frequency machine that uses ultraviolet light on the bacteria that causes acne.
Lentz is the day spa's esthetician and only uses organic products on her customers.
"I perform European facials and aromatherapy facials and offer full facial and body waxing services," she said.
Restoration Spa carries Starflower Essentials facial products and 100% Pure bath and body products.
"Sixty percent of what you put on your skin is absorbed into your blood stream," said Lentz. "In our society, we're inundated with chemicals; they're in everything we use. The farther away we get from that and the more pure and natural products we use, the healthier we'll be."
The second floor of the Mountain View Professional Center is quickly becoming a place where people can improve themselves in more than one way. Restoration Spa shares the floor with Three Peaks Therapy, the Yoga Loft, Designer Nails and Trudy's Hair Studio.
Beekhof owns the building, and she and Lentz spent a few months remodeling the day spa; but Beekhof said the work's not finished.
"We've been renovating the interior, but we will be doing some exterior work as well," she said.
Restoration Spa is located at 1528 Highway 395, suite 215. Business hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday.
