A Day in the Life at Citron: What Makes Our Spa Different

I’m very proud to say there’s something uniquely special about walking through the doors of Citron Spa. From the first breath of our signature rosemary-lemon aromatherapy blend to the soothing warmth of a neck roll resting on your shoulders, every moment is designed to help you feel deeply relaxed and genuinely cared for.

Attention to Detail in Every Ritual

At Citron, no touchpoint is ever random. Every element, from the décor and music to the clean products and health-focused treatments, is intentionally curated to create harmony between body, mind, and environment.

Our boutique spa reflects our mission: combining rustic nature with modern science to create an integrative path to natural wellness and beauty; improving the health of our community while caring for the environment.

It makes our day when guests notice the details we pour our hearts into. One recently shared:

“I’ve been to many salons, and Citron is my new favorite. The design and scents transport me to what feels like a Danish Hygge space that instantly brings a sense of peace. Everyone is so nice and calming.”

A Hygge space is a cozy space designed to evoke comfort, security, and happiness through soft lighting, natural textures, and simple, uncluttered design. That’s exactly how we want our guests to feel, cocooned in deep relaxation.

Our team moves through each day with a shared philosophy: even the smallest details can transform how someone feels when they leave.

Rustic Nature Meets Modern Science

Our “rustic nature meets modern science” philosophy is woven into every part of Citron, from design to treatments.

Our aesthetic blends natural wood with a clean, minimal palette of off-white, beige, and sage green, accented by touches of black for understated luxury. It mirrors our values: grounded in nature, elevated by science.

We integrate advanced technologies like private infrared sauna and LED red light therapy alongside hand-harvested herbs sourced from local farms for bespoke wellness teas and herbal massage oils.

Whether through treatments, retail, or atmosphere, this balance is what makes Citron distinct: rooted in nature, refined by science.

Quality Over Quantity

We believe that serving fewer guests with higher-quality experiences creates deeper impact.

Every treatment is designed as a holistic wellness experience, inside and out. We include thoughtful, sensory touches such as our locally grown organic tea bar, handcrafted healthy treats, bespoke aromatherapy, hot stones, aromatic steamed towels, nutrient-rich ginger elixirs, and ice-cold rosemary towels to refresh post-sauna.

Each ritual is refined, tested, and perfected until it feels just right, never rushed, and always meaningful.

Personalized at Every Step

Every guest journey begins with listening to your skin, your body, and your goals.

Our digital consultation process helps us personalize every aspect of your visit, from aromatherapy selection to treatment pressure and product choice, ensuring that no two experiences are ever the same.

We take the time to connect authentically, so each visit feels bespoke and aligned with your needs, never cookie-cutter.

Genuine Connection, Not Transaction

What makes Citron truly special isn’t just what we do, it’s how we connect.

Our number one core value is personal connection. We care about every guest who walks through our door as a person, not a transaction. We love hearing about your life and being part of your wellness journey.

We see our guests as part of a community, not just appointments on a schedule. That’s what transforms a service into an experience and a visit into a relationship.

Holistic Health, Inside and Out

As a holistic spa, we believe true beauty begins within.

Our treatments are designed to restore skin health, balance the body, and calm the mind. As a holistic esthetician and health coach, I’ve always believed that the skin is a reflection of inner wellness. When we feel refreshed, relaxed, and rejuvenated, that radiance extends into every area of life: our families, work, and sense of self.

Our treatments are intentionally designed to support overall wellbeing, not just beauty. We also share education through our wellness blog, social content, and newsletters, helping guests see results that extend far beyond the treatment room.

And through Citron Grove, I’m building a community to help other spa owners create businesses that nourish their wellbeing: financially, mentally, and emotionally, not drain it.

We choose clean, conscious, effective products that are as safe for your body as they are for the planet, because what goes on your skin should nourish you like what goes in your body.

Our Connection to the Environment and Local Community

We’re passionate about the environment and the health of the place we call home.

We source herbs for our signature herbal massage oils from Farmacy Herbs in

Providence, who grow their botanicals on a farm in East Greenwich. Supporting local farms allows us to share the natural health benefits of freshly grown botanicals while investing back into our community.

A Hands-On, Heart-Led Approach

As the founder of Citron Spa, I’ve spent over 24 years in the esthetics and wellness industry, and I’ve personally trained every esthetician or their trainer.

Before any therapist takes a guest, I complete a quality-check training to ensure consistency, technique, and the signature Citron touch are all aligned.

I began my career in one of Boston’s most prestigious spas on Boylston Street, serving discerning clientele who taught me the value of excellence, artistry, and presence. That experience shaped my foundation for everything Citron stands for today.

I remain deeply involved in the daily flow of the spa, meeting with my team regularly, ensuring communication stays strong, and continuously elevating our craft to deliver the experience our guests have come to love.

A Private Sanctuary

Our intimate, private environment allows each guest to fully unwind without distraction.

Whether you’re enjoying a solo infrared sauna ritual or a quiet treatment cocooned in a cozy, comforting space, every space at Citron is designed to help you reconnect with yourself.

I personally love quiet, private environments when I’m restoring and rejuvenating. I’ve visited spas where chatter filled the air, and I couldn’t fully decompress. That’s why no matter how much we grow, we’ll always preserve that calm, small, private feel.

Wellness That Feels Personal and Pure

At Citron Spa, every choice from the ingredients in our oils to the way we greet you at the door reflects a belief that wellness should feel personal, purposeful, and pure.

It’s not just a day at the spa, it’s a day designed around you.

It fills my heart with so much joy to see the difference we can make in how our guests feel. Whether we’re simply adding to an already beautiful day or offering a sanctuary of healing during a difficult season, your wellbeing is the purpose behind everything we do.
