Spa takes advantage of location inside Polaris-area hotel
* Papillon Day Spa is slated to open next week, offering typical spa treatments as well as some unusual ones.
A longtime spa owner is hoping a spectrum of relaxation treatments both typical and atypical will draw customers to her new venture in the Polaris area.
Papillon Day Spa, located in the new Polaris Hilton.
Like most spas, Papillon offers the basics: facials, massages, manicures and pedicures. But owner Dee Crabb takes pride in even those basic services, she said.
“We have some excellent massage therapists, so we’re really excited about that,” she said. “We have six of them on staff.”
Alongside the massage rooms is the room for one of Papillon’s more off-the-beaten-path offerings: the salt glow treatment. The technique involves the use of salt mixtures to rub and exfoliate the skin, followed by a shower, leaving the recipient refreshed and “glowing” — hence the name, Crabb said.
“They’re very popular right now,” she said. “It’s just a very relaxing treatment.”
Body wraps also are part of the Papillon menu, Crabb said.
In addition to individual treatments, Papillon will offer group treatments for bridal parties or simple get-togethers.
“We can accommodate quite a few people in a party like that,” said Crabb.
Facials and massages start at $55 each and top out around the $90 range, while salt glow treatments are $90 to $95. Group packages are available.
A variety of makeup, skin care and other products will be offered in the spa lobby, as will such items as jewelry and purses.
“It’s like a little boutique,” said Crabb.
Crabb, a Westerville resident, previously operated Skin Resources, a northwest Columbus spa, for 13 years, and has more than two decades of experience in the spa industry.
Though located inside the Hilton, Papillon is not officially affiliated with the hotel; it leases its 2,800 square feet of space. But the location does present the spa with a significant opportunity to attract clientele, said Crabb.
Papillon can be entered through the hotel lobby or through its own separate entrance on the north side of the hotel.
The spa opens at 10 a.m. daily and closes at 7 p.m. Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays; at 8 p.m. Wednesdays; at 9 p.m. Thursdays; and at 4 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays.
