Welcome to our little corner of Perdido! Before you find your way into our charming space the world can be loud, vibrant, and full of chatter. Something essential to the experience you have with us or at any spa but often goes unspoken - the importance of maintaining a quiet, serene, and calming atmosphere.
Have you ever wondered why spas encourage soft voices and silenced cell phones? Let’s find out why silence is part of your entire journey with us.
The Essence of Relaxation:
A spa is more than a place where you get a massage; it’s an experience designed to promote relaxation, rejuvenation, and wellness. The calming environment is carefully curated to provide a place of reprieve from all that goes on from the outside world. Not many spaces in our day to day encourage us to disconnect, allowing our minds to check out and bodies to begin to take off the weight of the many responsibilities we carry on our shoulders.
Harmony with Healing:
Many of our treatments, like massage, are designed to heal both the body and the mind. A loud and noisy environment can disrupt this healing process. Quiet settings enhance our ability to focus inward, facilitating a more profound and beneficial experience. There’s a beautiful flow of energy when in a peaceful setting which allows you to fully check out, and allows your service provider to fully be checked in to focus on the healing work needed.
Respect for Others:
We have 5 treatment rooms at Bodyworks, meaning our spa is a shared space. While one person’s relaxation might include softly chatting, another’s might require complete silence. By keeping our voices down, we show consideration for the peace and comfort of all guests, creating a mutually respectful environment.
Enhancing Mindfulness:
A quiet environment encourages mindfulness and a feeling of calmness and relaxation. It helps to reduce stress and anxiety. In a tranquil environment, people are more likely to experience a sense of peace and mental clarity, enabling them to connect more deeply with their thoughts. Our spa setting is beneficial for both mental and emotional well - being. With the outside chatter muted we’re better able to focus on how we feel and what we need from our service.
The Practical Side:
Acoustically, spas are designed to be peaceful spaces. Loud noises can echo and disrupt the peaceful ambiance. Keeping the noise down ensures that the tranquil atmosphere is preserved for everyone’s enjoyment. At Bodyworks we have many ways to help minimize sound such as surround sound calming music, sound machines for added noise cancellation, air purifiers serve not only to clean the air but as white noise to further eliminate any excess noise outside the treatment rooms. We have special custom made acoustic tiles throughout our reception and waiting area to absorb any sounds like conversations during check in/check out, service providers speaking with guests about after care, or our phone ringing at the front desk. We do our absolute best to keep our space quiet and peaceful for all to enjoy deep relaxation.
The next time you visit Bodyworks or any spa and notice the hushed tones or what we like to call our “Spa Voice”, remember that this quiet is a key ingredient in the spa recipe for relaxation. It’s about creating a peaceful retreat for everyone, a place where the mind can wander freely, and the body can find its balance. In the stillness, we find a unique kind of harmony, one that rejuvenates us and connects us more deeply with ourselves and the world around us.
Thank you for respecting this aspect of the spa experience. Here’s to finding peace, tranquility, and renewal in the sound of silence! And remember if at any time we forget our “Spa Voice” or the sound needs to be adjusted, please let us know. We always want to ensure you have the best possible experience with us.
As a big fan of Depeche Mode…ENJOY THE SILENCE!
