Best Spa: The Sanctuary Spa

Relationships form the basis of care at The Sanctuary Spa in Cedar Rapids, said owner Cindi Schamberger. “From the phone call scheduling the appointment to walking out the door, we use extreme care with our guests to create a relationship with them, and that’s the key to great success,” she said. Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a complimentary drink, including champagne, craft beer or infused teas, along with a complimentary hand or foot massage. Services include massage therapy, cupping, hot stone massages, facials, waxing, spray tanning and nail services. Ms. Schamberger is working on securing a second location in Iowa City or North Liberty, and hopes to eventually expand to Des Moines while keeping the “heart and soul of the business reflected in the service provided.”
