Origin Story
Meet Heidi and Kelly
the founders and managing partners of Recline & Unwind Social Spa. Their story begins as two friends with a shared passion for massage therapy, wellness and all things spa. The Social Spa concept was sparked by their mutual desire to bring the world of spa, its therapeutic benefits and a little fun to everyone. This “Wellness For All” approach begins first and foremost with affordability. Heidi & Kelly have a combined 35 years experience working in resorts, day spas and clinical settings, where massage can cost hundreds of dollars per session. A luxury that many can’t afford. With the goal of making self-care a habit and not a splurge, they decided to shorten the typical spa experience and lower prices. After all, studies show that it only takes 10 minutes of massage for the body to kick in with positive responses, reduce stress and initiate healing. RU Social Spa services were crafted to deliver focused massage right where people need it most, in dynamic 15-minute segments. Heidi & Kelly then reimagined the traditional “spa” concept by adding a social wellness twist. The one room spa at Recline & Unwind was designed to focus on total well-being by providing hands on healing in a casual environment that encourages real life connections.
