Massage & Hot Stone Therapy

Signature Spa in Carmel-by-the-Sea

There are few better places on the planet to receive a massage than Carmel-by-the-Sea — and Signature Day Spa is committed to making that experience worthy of the setting. Our team of licensed, experienced massage therapists brings genuine skill, intuition, and care to every single session. This isn’t a conveyor-belt spa. Every therapist takes the time to understand your goals, your history, and what your body needs that day — then delivers.

25+ Massage Styles

What Sets Signature Apart Is Breadth Without Compromise.

With over 25 massage styles and session lengths ranging from 20 minutes to 160 minutes, our menu is one of the most comprehensive on the entire Monterey Peninsula. Whether you need targeted therapeutic work for a specific injury, deep relief from chronic tension, a gentle prenatal massage, or simply want to fully surrender to the ocean air and let go of everything — we have the right therapist and the right treatment waiting for you.

Every style is available as a couples massage, side by side in the same room. Walk-ins are welcome, but we recommend booking ahead to secure your preferred therapist and time.

Hot Stone Therapy: Our Signature Experience

Hot Stone Therapy is one of Signature Day Spa’s most celebrated treatments — and if you’ve never experienced it, your first session will become a permanent fixture in your self-care routine.

Smooth, heated volcanic basalt stones are placed and moved across the body’s key tension points — cradling you in warmth while the heat penetrates muscle layers that hands alone cannot reach. The therapeutic effect is profound: deep tension releases more completely, circulation improves, and the nervous system settles into a state of calm that feels almost effortless. Guests consistently describe Hot Stone as unlike anything else they’ve experienced, a treatment that feels simultaneously deeply therapeutic and deeply indulgent.

Hot Stone is available as an individual treatment or as a couples experience — side by side, the most relaxing way to spend time together in Carmel.

Hot Stone Therapy

Warm stones cradled in all the right places with warm oil to deeply penetrate and release tension and pressure

  • 80 minutes – $205
  • 110 minutes – $275

LightStim Red Light Therapy

Glow Deeper. Heal Faster. Feel Amazing.

Your massage addresses the muscles — LightStim addresses what’s underneath them. This FDA-cleared LED therapy delivers precise wavelengths of red and near-infrared light deep into skin and soft tissue, stimulating cellular energy production, boosting collagen synthesis, increasing circulation, and calming inflammation at the source. No UV. No heat damage. No downtime.

When added to a massage, the two work synergistically — the massage releases surface tension and increases tissue pliability while LightStim drives deeper recovery in the areas your therapist has already warmed and opened. Guests consistently describe the combination as producing a quality of relaxation and physical relief that neither treatment achieves alone. Think of it as the perfect finishing touch for that sun-kissed Carmel glow.

Painless, safe for all skin types, and applied seamlessly during your session — no additional scheduling required.
