Aromatherapy is an integral part of the Sage experience.
Our belief is that relaxation will be enhanced by engaging as many of the senses as possible
You will be offered a selection of aromatic blends to choose from before your session. We allow plenty of time for this process because we believe it is important. Picking an oil, or choosing a scent is not an intellectual exercise; you will know intuitively what you need.
Moms love us after their massage, when they learn how to do this for themselves. Choose from either Sidelying or Semi Reclining Position (see previous post) . Now here they are for everyone. Pass them along to a friend.
Side-lying position is a safe and ergonomically sound position that you can use during your pregnancy for:
Receiving massage (it allows your massage therapist good access to your lower back and to the area between your shoulder blades).
Relief from lower back pain and sciatica.
• Napping.
• Sleeping.
NOTE: If you have already have hip pain the semi-reclining position may be a better choice for you.
You will need:
At least 5 pillows
Follow the directions to the right to set up your position perfectly. If you need a tutorial, feel free to ask your therapist or call us here at Sage Spa.
It IS important that you position the abdominal pillow in a way that supports your abdomen but takes the weight off your shoulder and hip. This way you will avoid any soreness due to pressure.

Semi-Reclining Position is a safe and ergonomically sound position that you can use during your pregnancy for:
• Receiving massage (you can get great neck work as well as belly work).
• Easier breathing in the latter months of your pregnancy.
• Relief from typical prenatal musculoskeletal strains.
• Napping.
• Sleeping.
NOTE: If you have sciatica, this position may not work for you. Sidelying position might be a better choice.
You will need:
• At least 6 pillows, regular and/or king (taller or longer-torsoed people may need one more pillow)
• One blanket
Follow the directions to the right to set up your position perfectly. If you need a tutorial, feel free to ask your therapist or call us at Sage Spa.
It IS important that your body be high enough up on your pillows so that you open your ribcage away from your pelvis, giving you more room to breathe and avoiding any indigestion that can occur if your stomach is “squished.”

Hanne, one of our most popular therapists, moved to Orange County a few weeks ago. If you are one of her fans, this is your last chance to book an appointment before she's gone. Nov 22nd will be her last day at Sage. The commute to Brooklyn turned out to be every bit as onerous as most of us predicted. We'll miss her. We wish her the very best.
SAGE SPA MASSAGE THERAPIST: Hanne

Got an appointment at Sage but wondering where exactly we are located? We get asked that question fairly often, probably because of our low profile.
Slow down; you can't miss us...green awing, first door on the left walking between 7th and 8th streets. Look for the small, polished "Sage Spa" sign by our door.
Still hopelessly lost you say?
Ok, look up and down 5th Avenue for a very confident black and white cat gazing intently up and down the street as if he owns it. That's Punky. He lives upstairs above the spa, coming and going as he pleases. He often sits outside on the street by the front door looking for trouble. He knows the way upstairs, trust us, but it's doubtful that he'll buzz you in. You'll have to do that yourself.
So what's the deal about Punky, you ask? Well, he's a huge star - quite famous on this corner of Brooklyn. Just ask anyone around in a two block radius and they'll break into a grin at the mention of his name. He even has fans seeking him out for a quick photo. Our low profile is one way we protect his privacy. Such is the life of a celebrity!
