Upon entering the Olive Leaf Wholeness Center, clients may wonder if they might be pressured into more than a relaxing spa experience. Brightly colored Xeroxes promoting colon hydrotherapy are posted in the lobby of this doctor’s office-meets-community-center, which received a federal grant to treat post-9/11 conditions. But those seeking pampering need not fear: The separate Olive Leaf Spa located downstairs is a shadowy oasis of calm, with trendy Thai decor and the lingering fragrance of lit Aveda candles, a nod to its status as an official Aveda concept spa. The treatments range from standard massages, facials, body wraps, and waxing to a unique Acupuncture Facial Lift. The emphasis here is on beauty from the inside out, so if you find you want to take your quest to feel good and look great to the next level, the spa therapists work in tandem with doctors upstairs and can offer a holistic approach to whatever your goals are—from nutritional makeovers to energy balancing to fertility challenges. — Cathay Che
