Find Balance in Your New Year’s Workout Resolution Here.

January 4, 2016

It’s that time of year again — the time for reflection that comes after holiday indulgence, but before the realistic onset of life in the New Year. Take this time to plan ahead and to create healthy goals and intentions (“resolutions,” if you will) that are challenging yet attainable. At milk + honey, we’re not extremists. We like balance and strive to keep it that way. So, when it comes to thinking about the year ahead, we’re setting out to engage our minds and our bodies equally — here’s how.

CrossFit + Sports Massage

Sprinting, climbing rope, box jumps, kettlebells, and flipping tires are only a handful of the high-intensity exercises CrossFit utilizes in its interval training program. After your WOD, take your stretching to the next level. Our deep-tissue, full-body Sports Massage helps to ease any muscle tension and soreness in joints, which will in turn, prevent injury.

Yoga + HydraFacial 

Bikram, Hatha, Ashtanga, Kundalini, Vinyasa. Whatever your practice may be, yoga is one of the meditative ways to exercise. Extend your calming environment outside of the yoga studio to include another relaxing sanctuary: the spa. Our Ultimate HydraFacial is exactly what your skin needs after a sweaty stretch session. Smoothe rough-textured skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and bring your skin back to its natural, youthful state without any redness or downtime.

Indoor Cycling + The Spa Partisan 

Between the adrenaline-pumping music, synchronized pedaling, and the feeling of relief after that last incline (er, turn of the resistance knob), we can’t get enough of indoor cycling. It’s not for the faint of the heart, but we challenge everyone to tap it back at least once in the New Year. Plus, if you cycle to the finish line, then you’ve certainly earned our Spa Partisan treatment. This full-body brushing is followed by a brown sugar, coffee, and crushed almond skin-polishing blend that leaves you feeling relaxed and renewed.

Boxing + Manicures

Who knew jabs, crosses, and hooks could greatly improve your cardiovascular health? Thanks to the vigorous workout that is boxing, you not only work up a great, healthy sweat, but you also tone muscle and improve flexibility and strength. Once the gloves are off, consider it time to polish that right-left combo. For guys, try our Buff + Go manicure. For ladies, you can’t go wrong with our m + h Manicure.

Spa Package of the Month: Hit the Trail Retreat

September 30, 2011

The weather is finally cooling down and Lady Bird Lake will be beautiful. Once the temperature drops we tend to forget the sunscreen. With the Hit the Trail Retreat you’ll leave with sunblock and be ready to … hit the trail. Before you get moving here’s a little trivia question about the lake.

Q: At its highest peak in the summer, how many bats live under the Congress Avenue Bridge on Lady Bird Lake?
(see the answer below)

Hit the Trail Retreat
Town Lake runners, walkers, and bikers: your day has come. After a hard workout on the Town Lake hike and bike trail, treat yourself to a spa retreat. After a shower in our locker room, enjoy an hour-long Sports Massage to help with sore joints and muscles. This is followed by a Buff + Go Combo plus 15 minutes of extra foot massage. To make sure that your skin stays safe in the hot sun, you’ll leave with CosMedix SPF 30 sunblock. Leave happy, refreshed, and ready to hit the trail again. 105 minutes for $199.
