The couples massage

Our Couples Swedish Massage sits you and your plus-one side by side in our couples suite, each with your own therapist, plus sparkling water service. Choose 60 or 90 minutes. Want something warmer? The Couples Hot Stone adds heated basalt stones for two.

The Date Night Package

The Date Night Package builds on the couples massage with a relaxing couples scalp massage and a glass of prosecco each — about two hours designed to feel like an event, not just an appointment. It's our go-to for anniversaries and special occasions.

Which should you choose?

  • Couples massage if you want a simple, flexible way to relax together (and a great first couples spa experience).
  • Date Night Package if you're marking an occasion and want the full, celebratory experience.
  • Want to add glow? The Couples Massage + Facial Duo pairs a couples massage with side-by-side facials.

Either way, you'll leave relaxed — together. Book a couples experience in Metuchen →
