Sense, A Rosewood Spa at Rosewood Miramar Beach, Southern California’s premier ultra-luxury resort destination, is pleased to announce that it has been named as the only Five-Star spa in Santa Barbara on the 2020 Forbes Travel Guide Star Rating list. Based on the experiences of a highly qualified team of anonymous inspectors who assess nearly 1,700 entities against 900 objective industry standards, the world-renowned and only global rating system for luxury hotels, restaurants and spas offers designations for Five-Star, Four-Star and Recommended properties. Following its March 2019 opening, the full-service spa received this prestigious honor in its first year of eligibility, reinforcing the resort as a haven for health, wellness and luxurious beach living. In celebration of this esteemed distinction, Sense is today unveiling the details of an exclusive partnership with NuFACE, the leader in innovative, at-home Microcurrent Skincare. Through the comprehensive collaboration, which will launch in March with several special treatments, Sense will be the only spa in the Santa Barbara area to utilize the revolutionary NuBODY technology.
“Less than a year after Rosewood Miramar Beach’s monumental opening, today marks a very exciting new chapter for Sense, which has already established itself as a treasure within the Montecito and Santa Barbara communities,” “Being recognized by Forbes Travel Guide as one of the world’s best spas is an immense honor, and we look forward to continuing to provide guests and locals with the most extraordinary and innovative wellness experiences available, as demonstrated by our new microcurrent treatment offerings in partnership with NuFACE.”
Karina Chung, Director of Spa at Rosewood Miramar Beach
Launching in March, Sense’s new NuFACE treatments have been expertly designed to refresh and rejuvenate by visibly toning and firming skin while providing a more contoured silhouette. Using its signature microcurrent technology, the NuFACE Trinity Pro Enhancement provides supreme facial sculpting and toning to the neck, cheeks and forehead, leaving the skin feeling firm, smooth and tightened. For those seeking a more extensive sculpting experience, the Body Firming Detox treatment incorporates the brand’s new NuBODY technology, the first FDA-cleared at-home microcurrent device that helps tone skin, to refine and firm body contours and promote detoxification as well as re-energize. Through a multi-step process that includes an exfoliating scrub and a state-of-the-art slimming massage, the detox exfoliates the skin, stimulates lymphatic drainage and circulation and promotes the absorption of clinically tested slimming actives. In addition to the new treatments, Sense will also offer the option to incorporate the cutting-edge microcurrent technology into every facial on the existing treatment menu with the NuFACE FIX Line Smoothing Device, which instantly firms, smooths and tightens around the eyes, mouth and forehead, leaving the skin youthful and radiant.
