Founded in 2000 by Carroll Gardens resident Loretta Gendville, Area Emporium and Spa is the twin sister business to Area Yoga, both of which were precursors to the Area Kids chain of children's clothing and toy stores.
Area Spa specializes in body wrap treatments, waxing, skin care, aromatherapy and massage. The spa offers combination packages of its various services. Customers who receive a treatment can also attend a free yoga class the same day at Area Yoga located only a few blocks away. Gift certificates are available online. Check the website periodically as Area often posts discounted specials on treatments.
