Service components and sequence
The Lux Relaxation Combo combines a rejuvenating 30-minute Swedish massage with a deep cleansing facial into a single 90-minute appointment. The Swedish portion focuses on easing muscular tension through gentle, rhythmic strokes and client-directed pressure, preparing you to relax ahead of the facial portion. This sequencing helps create a calm state before skin treatment.
The deep cleansing facial follows the massage and is intended to refresh and revitalize the skin. In this combined treatment the therapist moves from full-body tension relief into focused facial care, which together aim to leave you feeling both relaxed and cosmetically refreshed without extending the total session beyond 90 minutes.
What to expect during treatment
When you arrive at the Astoria studio you'll have a brief check-in and chance to note pressure preference and any skin concerns. Therapists adjust massage pressure and facial attention to your comfort. Draping and privacy are maintained throughout; you can request quieter music, lighter touch, or emphasis on problem areas before the session begins.
The combo is paced to balance whole-body relaxation and targeted facial attention. Because Wax me Waxing Studio and Spa is near Steinway Street and Ditmars corridors, many clients book this treatment after work or before evening plans; the team is used to coordinating timing for commuters coming from Manhattan and nearby Queens neighborhoods.
Why this suits Astoria life
Astoria's strong commuter culture and active evening scene make a combined relaxation-and-facial service practical for busy schedules. The 90-minute format fits into after-work windows accessible by subway and bus from Manhattan, Long Island City, Sunnyside, and nearby neighborhoods, letting you reset before dinner or a cultural outing.
Seasonal weather in New York City—from humid summers to cold winters—affects how skin feels and how people schedule self-care. The Lux Relaxation Combo is flexible for neighbors planning treatments around park days, waterfront events, or museum visits, providing both immediate calm and a refreshed appearance useful for local social plans.
