If you are looking for a massage in Charlotte, check out the new-ish Mood House in Dilworth. Designed as a modern massage spa with a Palm Springs vibe Mood House brings a new level of design to our local spa scene. It has a calm, clean vibe with lots of natural light and sleek, Scandinavian style.
Mood House has some serious design credentials ~ the 4,000-square-foot space was designed by Perry Poole Architects. It includes seven massage rooms, a large meditation space for events and classes, and an infrared sauna.
Charlotte has certainly welcomed Mood House, which has 400 monthly massage members since opening. “We’re floored by the early response,” said Cristina Wilson, founder and owner of Mood House. “Our clients tend to be high performers that believe in regularly investing in self-care so that they can show up the way they want to for their family, career, and life.”
Cristina certainly knows Charlotteans, and from several interesting perspectives ~ a Davidson grad, she was the Editor for the dearly-departed Carolina Bride Magazine, and was the President and Partner of the Charlotte Agenda in its pre-Axios days.
“In my past, I’ve struggled to carve out one hour each month to escape, relax, and recharge. I felt like I had to justify it. Why? I hate how I convinced myself that my health wasn’t worth an hour. The truth is that I’m less effective — as a businesswoman, as a leader, as a parent — if I don’t create time for myself,” said Wilson. “I kept searching for a place I could go to recharge my mind and body, somewhere with a community that I could call home. I couldn’t find it, so I quit my job and built Mood House.”
Mood House offers a la carte three types of massage and the infrared sauna session.
- 50 minute Massage
- 80 minute Massage
- 25 minuted Seated Massage (you can remain clothed if time is an issue!)
- 30 Minute Infrared Sauna Session
Mood House offers great discounts with their super flexible Membership options, which clients love as membership goes a long way to making sure you will show up and enjoy some self-care at least one time a month. Member massage credits roll over, never expire, and can be shared with family or friends.
We love that Mood House, true to its name, asks you to pick your “mood” to determine your massage. When you check in for your Signature Massage, you’ll choose a mood ~ CALM | CLEAR | ABUNDANT | AWAKE ~ so that every part of the experience (aromatherapy, massage techniques and music) aligns to help you feel exactly how you want to when you leave. It’s this attention to detail, so evident in the design and style elements of the spa, that creates the modern experience you’ll find so refreshing at Mood House. Tell them we say hey 🙂
