del.icio.us The brand spankin’ new, 10,000-square-foot
Body By Brooklyn Spa and Lounge, which opened at 275 Park Ave.,
at Washington Avenue, in Clinton Hill in March, is remarkable
for its size - 10 treatment rooms - as well as its attention
to each luxurious detail.
The range of services runs the gamut from facials to massages
to body treatments to "platza" (scrubbing with a broom
made of fresh oak leaves) in their Russian sauna.
According to partner Mira Goldin, there isn’t a nail care area
in BBB, because portable carts will bring hand and foot attention
to the client’s treatment room.
Architect Moon Kim used soothing beige and chocolate brown -
with invigorating splashes of green - in the spacious lounge
(pictured), replete with a fireplace and restaurant, overseen
by chef Adrieno Rodriguez. While you could imagine this room
brimming with well-heeled Brooklynites, the clients will enjoy
the space while wearing robes and slippers.
BBB has locker rooms with private showers, a wet treatment room
with tsunami showerhead, a wet lounge with hot and cold pools,
and suites for couples.
For information or to make an appointment, call (718) 923-9400 or visit
the Web site at www.bodybybrooklyn.com.
See the Brooklyn Spa Directory for more information.
