This is where the upper echelon comes to take a break. And for good reason. Iatria has it all, and it's all top of the line. Offering the full gamut of spa services, this North Raleigh hot spot draws in and maintains a large list of well-to-do clientele who can afford services such as intense pulsated light photorejuvenation (IPL), which treats facial redness and minimizes wrinkles; and Lypossage, which reduces cellulite and helps contour the body. Massages, which include a Thai-style approach involving yoga stretches and the Basalt stone treatment that uses hot volcanic rocks, range from about $70-$95. Facials (using the Burt's Bees product line) cost about the same. Clean and professional is what you get here. Lightly colored walls interspersed with dashes of color from flowers and furniture combine with soft white lighting in an airy environment. Inside, you'll see suit-and-tie types (the spa offers business retreats that combine meeting space with spa services) and clients sporting terrycloth robes and slippers.

If you're looking to pamper yourself, but don't want to break the bank, this Triangle salon is a best bet. Because it's a chain, it's a bit less expensive than some of its competitors. Nonetheless, the staff manages to offer personalized service and special treatments. Traditional spa services include deep tissue, Swedish, sports and pregnancy massages ($40-$80); facials; and enzymatic sea mud packs and salt scrubs. Other body therapies ($45-$85) include cellulite treatment and the popular warm-weather favorite: the Buff & Bronze, in which self-tanner is massaged over the entire exfoliated body. Seaweed, clay and herbal body wraps are also offered, as is ear candling, a treatment that is said to help with sinus problems, sore throats and other ailments. Don't expect luxe surroundings, but cushy chairs and soothing lamplight make for a quiet scene. Clients are taken to a behind-the scenes locale for spa services, and cuts are done in small, but open areas. Make someone's spa wish come true...Spa Wish Gift Certificates
