Strolling
downtown along the Boulder Creek path, one can look up through the
trees and spot the Highland with its gabled roof, nestled above
on private, wooded grounds. The Highland, built in 1891 as a school
and named after the "high land" on which it sits, provided
the children safety from creek flooding. The Highland continues
to serve its community today as a beautiful sanctuary.
Cross
the foot bridge at Ninth Street and wander through the iron gates,
flower gardens and trees to reach the arched doorway entrance. Take
the steps down to the garden level and discover a wonderful secret
- a small, high quality massage and bodywork center, built within
the refuge of century-old walls, graced with the quiet beauty of
artwork and hanging plants. Colorado Massage Center is a contemplative
refuge for discriminating patrons, a beautiful, safe, and quiet
space. Its small scale operation allows for a more personalized
interaction and affords its reputation for high quality massage
and bodywork services.
Pass
the gurgling fountains as you enter the lobby and sign in with our
friendly staff at the counter window. Follow the steps down to the
spa area, with its private dressing rooms, lockers with robes and
towels, restroom and showers. Sink into the warm, crystal clear
whirlpool, surrounded by the soothing hues of deep blue tile work.
Hidden beneath the floor, hydrogen peroxide and ultra-violet light
sterilization systems eliminate the need for any chlorine or bromine
in the water. Try the extra strength jets and bubblers. They are
designed to relax your muscles in a matter of minutes and maximize
the benefit of the massage you are about to receive. Just relax
and unwind, your therapist will come for you when it's time for
your massage or bodywork session. All of our massage rooms
have foot thick sound insulation, independent sound systems and
windows for natural light.
The
Boulder community is a Mecca of bodywork schools and body therapists
and it produces many world class master practitioners. Your
therapist is carefully chosen for his or her skill level, years
of experience and dedication to the profession from a large field
of outstanding candidates.
After
your session, return to the spa to re-hydrate with our triple-filtered
drinking water. A few minutes in the hot, redwood dry sauna will
further relax you and allow the massage oil to penetrate and moisturize
your skin. Finish with a cool shower to close the pores of your
skin. Stroll back out through the award-winning gardens to the
creek for a few minutes of quiet reflection. Welcome home to a
deeper experience.<
