It doesnt get any better than a Hot Stone Massage with Frank at Dream. WestportNow.com photo

I donҒt know about you but its only the day after Thanksgiving and IҒm already exhausted from holiday shopping and could use a great massage.
Being no amateur in the treat-myself-well department, I skip the basics and go right for a Hot Stone Massage or as they say at Derma Clinic, ֓LaStone Therapy.
If youԒve never had a massage involving heated, smooth river stones expertly glided over those sore spots, now is the time. Oh-so-serious Frank at Dream Day Spa is my own personal favorite and worth every cent.

Derma Clinic $90
Born of Earth $100
Body Mind & Spirit $110
Holly Grunsell $120
Dream Spa $120
Westport Therapeutic $140
Coco Spa $145

But if you want to stick to the basics, heres a rundown:

Born of Earth $75
Derma Clinic $75
Soma Therapeutic $75
Holly Grunsell $75
