Prickly Pear Tranquility Treatment: 6 Hands, Total Bliss

Published : 10/13/2009 by Michelle Guerin


Once you’ve experienced the beauty of body scrubs, wraps and massages, it can be incredibly hard to choose what spa treatment you love the most.


For avid spa goers, we simply listen to our bodies and allow spas to service our needs. However, if you’re unable to frequent the spa monthly, you either pick the most irresistible treatment, or cross your fingers for an all-in-one total body spa care package. San Diego spas try their very best to continually surpass the industry curve, and we’ve found the latest and greatest offer of indulgence: Prickly Pear and Pink Grapefruit Tranquility Treatment.


The signature service of Morado Spa at Borrego Ranch Resort and Spa, this tranquility treatment is just about 2 full hours of mind and body pleasure performed by 3 spa therapists. That’s right: 6 hands all at once. You begin with an organic prickly pear seed oil body scrub followed by a private steam shower wash. Once dry, a revitalizing pink grapefruit body mask rich in antioxidants, vitamin C and B-5 is applied and complemented by a warm body wrap, enabling the nutrients to soothe the skin. As you are cocooned in the wrap, you are treated to foot reflexology and a nourishing scalp treatment. Down the hall, the couples massage suite awaits with a drawn bath and a glass of champagne. You’re left alone to reflect on the body scrub and wrap, enjoy champagne, and wash away the mask residue. After your bath, the treatment concludes with a 6-handed aromatherapy massage using prickly pear and grapefruit oils to smooth your skin and enliven your senses.


Most memorable is the personalized attention you receive having 3 spa therapists with you at all times during the treatment. There are great masseuses in San Diego that do wonders with 2 hands, but the sensation of a 6-handed massage is so divine it feels almost taboo. This tranquility treatment is a complete mind and body care package that incorporates every sensation from your scalp to your toes utilizing body scrubs, wraps, massage, reflexology, scalp therapy, baths, and of course champagne.


Borrego Ranch Resort and Spa is the newest adults-only luxury resort in the Borrego Springs area. Morado, the spa at Borrego Ranch, is a quaint two-story retreat located in the heart of the property, with brick and plaster walls, antique tiles imported from Spain, and an outdoor relaxation deck with day beds and plush accommodations. Morado offers an array of pampering and holistic treatments, including body-centered massages, soaks, scrubs, acupuncture, and herbal medicine. Want the best? Splurge on the Tranquility Treatment – 110 minutes, $575.


Insider Tip: Prickly pear is known for hydrating and anti-aging properties, and leaves skin radiant and youthful looking.
