Where to begin? We have a lot of options right here in Oneonta: Manicures, pedicures, massages and facials. Ooo, how about getting your hair done?! Oh sounds like heaven. You can book Mom an appointment at:

  • Karma Spa & Boutique, the area's first upscale spa and boutique. Karma offers a variety of innovative massage, skin treatments, body therapies and nail specialties in a luxurious atmosphere all in a healthy way.

Gift certificates will work, too.
