Spring Detox for Your Body, Mind, and Spirit in Calgary
Dare I say… Spring is almost here, and if you’re anything like me, you’re ready to shake off winter’s ugly vibes (or Ugg boots) and feel human again.
Let’s hope the days of cozying up under layers of blankets, winter coats and boots and pretending we didn’t binge-watch an entire series in one weekend (no judgment here - mine was Yellowstone.. haha). Now it’s time to refresh, reset, and get your body and mind back to feeling amazing again, so you can embrace Spring as your best self!
At Gelous Spa, our clients know we’re all about holistic healing that works—nothing cookie-cutter here, just real, effective treatments that help you detox physically, mentally, and emotionally. Nestled in Glenbrook, near Killarney with easy access off Stoney Trail (great for our deep south clients), Gelous Spa is the perfect escape for anyone looking to release built-up stress, tension, and stagnant energy-without dealing with downtown traffic, parking nightmares or retail hustle.
Are you ready to shed winter’s heaviness and step into a brand new you? Here’s how we can help.
Why Spring is the Perfect Time to Detox your Body, Mind & Soul
Spring is all about birth and renewal-birds chirping, fresh air, longer, beautiful bright days, and as women… that irresistible urge to deep clean everything in sight!
But while you’re decluttering your space, don’t forget about your body and mind too. After months of being a couch potato, indulging in heavier foods, and cold weather stress, your muscles, skin, and nervous system are likely begging you for some TLC.
A spring detox isn’t just about drinking green juice and breaking out your favourite flowy dresses again. it’s about clearing out the physical and emotional weight that’s been dragging you down all Winter. And lucky for you, we’ve got the perfect treatments lined up to help with that.
1. Somatic Massage: Releasing Stored Tension & Stress
Somatic massage isn’t just your average “feel good” treatment - it’s a deeply therapeutic experience that helps you release stored emotions, trauma, and chronic tension from your body.
Winter has a sneaky way of making us hunch our shoulders, clench our jaws, and stiffen up (hello, stress!). This massage helps to:
✔ Unwind deep-seated muscle tension
✔ Calm an overactive nervous system
✔ Improve circulation and lymphatic flow
✔ Rebalance your body and mind for the new season
✔ Support better sleep and mental clarity
✔ Boost energy levels naturally
2. Buccal & Facial Massage
Included in all our somatic massages. If you’ve been clenching your jaw all winter or feeling puffy from one too many cozy dinners (again, no judgment), a buccal massage is exactly what you need. This deep facial massage works inside the mouth to:
✔ Release jaw tension & TMJ discomfort
✔ Sculpt and lift your face naturally
✔ Stimulate lymphatic drainage to reduce puffiness
✔ Boost circulation for a fresh, healthy glow
✔ Help with sinus drainage and congestion relief
✔ Reduce stress-related headaches
3. Trauma-Informed Massage- Somatic & Subconscious Imprinting Massage
Your body remembers everything-not just physically but emotionally too. If you’ve been carrying stress, burnout, or unresolved emotions, our trauma-informed massage (called somatic healing) is designed to go a step further to help you process and release that stored tension in a safe, supportive environment.
✔ Gentle techniques to calm the nervous system
✔ Encourages emotional release without force
✔ Helps process subconscious stress patterns
✔ Supports deep relaxation and healing
✔ Reduces fight-or-flight responses and nervous system fatigue
✔ Enhances mind-body awareness for long-term balance
This is a must-try if you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or mentally exhausted. It’s becoming a fan favourite in Calgary.
4. Micro-Needling & Massage
Spring isn’t just about refreshing your body-it’s time to get that fresh, glowy skin back too! Our micro-needling & massage combo works wonders for:
✔ Boosting collagen & skin renewal
✔ Fading hyperpigmentation & dullness
✔ Improving circulation & skin elasticity
✔ Giving you that post-winter glow-up
✔ Stimulating cellular turnover for long-term skin health
✔ Helping with scar reduction and texture improvement - and the best news.. it’s partially covered on your insurance plan!
5. Breathwork & Energy Healing
Detoxing isn’t just about your body-it’s also about clearing out stagnant energy too. If you’ve been feeling energetically stuck, foggy, or weighed down by emotions. Breathwork and energy healing can help to:
✔ Reset your nervous system
✔ Release stored emotions & tension
✔ Improve focus & clarity
✔ Create space for new intentions and energy
✔ Align your body, mind, and spirit for deeper healing.
This is included in our subconscious importing treatment.
