Urban Retreat Body & Skincare Centre offers a wide range of cutting-edge services that include laser hair removal, facials, peels, manicures, pedicures, waxing and more. Founder and director Anita Prysko has also brought in a doctor who specializes in Botox and fillers in response to client requests.
Over the years, Anita has noticed a huge growth in the number of male clients. “It used to be that guys would come in for a massage and the occasional waxing before a holiday,” she says. “These days, they are coming in more often for skin treatments, manicures and pedicures.” Anita explains that most men who visit her business are initially introduced by their wives or girlfriends the first time, and now some have started coming in more frequently than their partners.
Recently nominated for a Top Choice Award as one of Edmonton’s Best Beauty Spas, Urban Retreat Body and Skincare Centre is more than 3,000 square feet of space just waiting to pamper you. Spoil yourself from head to toe with their shiatsu massage pedicure chairs, client steam room and lounge, and therapeutic or relaxation massages. Urban Retreat also provides clients the option of personalizing their visit by building their own spa package from the comprehensive list of other spa services.
The brightly lit spa at Urban Retreat is a beautiful setting for relaxation and esthetics. The fast, effective and painless hair removal system used by the trained specialists provides excellent results and can permanently eliminate unwanted hair from all parts of your body. It’s called the Motif Laser Hair Removal system and it uses high frequency and lower energy, resulting in shorter treatment times.
This spa, a quiet oasis to escape the chaos that is life, offers the most delightful facials. They use Dermalogica skincare products to cater to your skin’s needs, whether you want help with fine lines, acne, dry or sensitive skin, or sun damage. You can opt for a 60 or 90-minute facial, with the option of adding on extras, such as thermal masque – how decadent!
