The craft of Hot Rock Spa (Carp) lives on — now in a calm private studio near Algonquin College, an easy drive from Kanata and Stittsville. Warm-oil massage, gentle osteopathy, couples Saturdays.
For years, west-Ottawa's local spa was Hot Rock Spa in Carp. Its founder now practises at ALX on Woodroffe Avenue — a small, quiet, one-guest-at-a-time studio next to Algonquin College, about 20 minutes down the 417 from Kanata Centrum. The sauna era is behind; the hands, the warmth and the standards are the same.
Every session is private, warm and unhurried. Prices are shown in the online calendar.

Feels like a relaxation massage, treats the cause — and comes with an insurance receipt.
