The Spa at Marco Island Marriott Beach Resort:
A Balinese-style health spa, that offers a luxurious cocoon of tranquility surrounded by white sand beaches and an ocean that laps gently in from the west; soothing sounds of the sea are an integral part of the experience. The Spa features various treatments inspired by the island paradise, state-of-the-art fitness facilities, salon services, Spa Café serving healthy fare and a Spa Shop.
Relax, revive and refresh - the mere thought of a day with all three is enough to carry me away to the island. The three "R's" are way too elusive in these troubled times. Any chance I get to find them; I take just as fast as I can. And I certainly found them here.
How about a Balinese Massage?
It's the Spa's Signature Treatment, a meditative massage that combines Hindu, Chinese and European influences to create a relaxing, rhythmic and energizing massage experience. This massage offers varying techniques of acupressure, rolling motion, long strokes and percussion to invigorate the muscles and significantly increase blood circulation.
A Sports Massage:
Just the thing to loosen all those tight muscles after a challenging round of golf at the Rookery. They say a tight muscle is a weak muscle. That being so, the Sports Massage will help to alleviate the stress and tension which builds up in the body's soft tissue during physical activity, golf, for instance. This massage will help drain away fatigue, relieve swelling, reduce muscle tension, maintain and increase flexibility. Deep tissue and compression techniques are coordinated with specific muscle stretches for improvement in strength, endurance and overall fitness. The therapist will tell you that it's "not to be confused with a 'spectator sport,'" because this customized treatment requires interaction between you and the therapist to maximize results.
The Hydro Massage:
The Hydro Massage is performed in a state-of-the-art hydrotherapy tub. The therapist assesses your needs and adds the appropriate products from the sea for muscle relaxation. While seated in the tub you'll receive a water wand massage. "The multiple high-powered jets harmonize this experience." A hydrating massage compliments this service. Oh, and yes, you'll need to wear a swimsuit for this treatment.
