    New guests walked into a relaxing room, where they were handed a cup of hot mint tea, sat in a chair with a warm wrap around the neck and prepared for either a manicure and pedicure, or a facial and massage.  This was just the beginning of what is offered at ME SPA in Santa Rosa.

    At the official grand opening of ME SPA on Wednesday, people were able to tour the spa, meet the staff and be there for their official ribbon-cutting ceremony while small horderves were served.

    “This spa has so many different qualities that make it relaxing for guests,” said the esthetic educator Jamie Berry. “The tour itself is relaxing, let alone receiving one of our great services.”

    Guests who attended the grand opening received a gift certificate for 25 percent off their first service, a gift bag containing an Advanced Body Care bath soak and were able to enter a drawing to win a $240 spa package.

    “I don’t even feel like I am in Santa Rosa anymore,” said junior, Isabella Bandiera DeMello. “This spa is so nice, I am definitely going to take advantage of the 25 percent off certificate and get a pedicure.”

    The spa itself is large and has the capacity to do multiple services at one time. There is even a locker room where guests can change into robes and keep their belongings safe.

    There are four massage rooms, including  one for couples.  There are ones for facials and separate rooms for manicures and pedicures.   The pedicure room has chairs that recline with curtains separating each pedicure chair allowing more room for privacy and relaxation. Other services include basic and advanced peels, waxing and body treatments.

    “I have been in this business for 14 years now and I have never worked at a spa like this,” said Berry. “Everyone here is so passionate about what they do here and I can’t wait for the community to experience it.”

    The front desk area of the spa included products such as nail polish, face and body products and some clothing.

    The store plans to have monthly deals. One deal they have going on right now is if two friends go together each friend will receive 25 percent off any 50 or 80-minute service. Another great deal for college students is when booking a manicure or pedicure, customers can take a bottle of the brand, wHet nail lacquer, for free, which is a $15 value.

    They also have discounts for getting multiple services done.  If a customer books three 30-minute services they get $30 off the services and receive and free gift with the purchase.  The gift is a lotion, scrub or cream from one of the main products they use.  Readers who bring in this article have the opportunity to receive 20 percent  off any service in the month of November.

    The spa provides group package deals for celebrations for an afternoon of pampering with a group of friends.

    “All of us at ME SPA are so grateful to continue the legacy of offering a true spa experience in a beautiful setting to our guests,” said Spa Director, Heather Walters. “Taking time for ourselves is not always top priority, but it should be. We invite everyone to make their ‘ME time’ a world class experience at ME SPA.”

    Their address is 728 Farmers Ln in Santa Rosa.
