Try this: Take pressure off your feet with the Sukapao Thai Foot Ritual ($85). “Hot stones feel great, but with this you can use more pressure, because it’s an herb bag,” says aesthetic director Patricia Bilek. You’ll find Old World techniques such as the 80-minute Thai Massage ($175), which uses small, herb-filled heated poultices to massage organic nutrients directly into the body and release tension. Here the focus is on holistic wellness services such as the Sawan ($210), a moisturizing body scrub coupled with a wrap that uses pineapple and tamarind extracts to revitalize your skin before a relaxing lemongrass essential oil massage.

With seven stone fireplaces, marble statues throughout and an underground Finnish grotto with a whirlpool, steam cave and sauna, Mario’s feels like you’re visiting an ethereal, European-style retreat. Stepping into Mario’s International Spa in Aurora is like being transported across the globe.

This Aurora spa is a transformative experience.ĭon’t be fooled by the simple facade of this 1842 Victorian.
