Body & Soul Day Spa • Great Barrington

Body & Soul Day Spa sits on Maple Ave in Great Barrington, in the Berkshires, and focuses almost entirely on massage work. The menu runs seven treatments deep, anchored by The Marshall Method Massage, the house signature priced at $160 for a standard session (a 90-minute version runs $230 but has limited availability, so calling ahead to check the schedule is advised).

Beyond the signature treatment, the lineup covers the basics travelers expect from a moderate-priced day spa: 60- and 90-minute Swedish or deep tissue massage ($135 and $195, the latter noted as having very limited openings), and a 60-minute prenatal massage at $135, which may require a doctor's approval before booking. Couples treatments are offered, so two people can be scheduled for massages at the same time, though the spa notes that on Thursdays double-booking isn't available.

Booking is handled online through the spa's site, where visitors pick a service, choose a therapist, and select from open dates shown in green. The site is mid-transition to this system and currently limits online scheduling to massage services only. Parking is on the street, service is in English, and the spa welcomes families as well as couples. Specific operating hours aren't listed, so it's worth calling (413) 528-6465 to confirm timing and availability, especially for the limited-slot treatments.
