Five Top Contenders for a Rub Out
1. The Betsey
Nothing says “staycation” like an open-air, roof-top rub out. Although booking far ahead can be tricky for weather, there is an indoors location just in case of rain.
2. The Sports Club / LA
Get in a serious work out then choose from an array of massages from Hot Stone to authentic Thai. Don’t forget to steam afterwards and grab a bite at Pasha’s — all within the Four Seasons.
3. Russian and Turkish Baths
Don’t have and appointment? No problem. Show up enjoy the facilities (For $25) and get a rub out. This is no frills, no 400 thread count sheets, but the real healing deal. After all, there aren’t many places you can get a real Swedish massage for $75 for a full hour these days.
4. Uma Spa
This little spa may be the greenest in Miami. Touted as the first organic one around — everything is eco-friendly, including the materials the spa was built with. Expect the best in organic massage oils and toxin-free sheets.
5. Full Bodied Wine and Spa
Shop for wines and have a complimentary glass while you wait for your massage. Relax and shop for the latest cabernet and the latest grape-seed extract eye cream in one go after a glorious rub-down with only the finest grape seed oils.
