If you can’t remember the last time you treated yourself to a massage, it’s definitely been too long. Check out Vetiver Modern Massage in Germantown, recently opened by the same team behind natural-and-organic beauty spa Poppy & Monroe. Stop in for a 30-minute chair massage and let a licensed massage therapist work magic on your neck, shoulders, arms, hands, legs and feet. Customers remained fully clothed, so you can get in and out quickly, which is helpful if you’re hoping nobody notices you’ve disappeared from your office for the afternoon. Chair massages are in a communal space, but you can easily tune out the rest of the world with a warm lavender neck wrap (heaven!), an eye mask and earplugs (although you might not want to tune out the awesome music — Vetiver favors Sharon Van Etten and Lucius in lieu of New Age-y ocean-wave-and-chime noises). Vetiver also offers full-body table massages — including an express 30-minute option — as well as prenatal massages, reflexology and Reiki. Services start at $45, and all products, including CBD massage oil, are organic. Looking for long-term self-care? Get a membership and receive monthly discounts on services. Walk-ins accepted, but book online at vetivermassage.com to secure your spot in this sweet little oasis. ABBY WHITE
