If you’ve never heard of ASMR, allow us to fill you in, stat.
An autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) is a tingling sensation, very much like goosebumps, that can be triggered by touch, sight or sound. It’s very meditative and relaxing, and is commonly caused by things like light touch, whispering, the sound of ocean waves, or watching someone brush your hair.
There’s a spa in Pennsylvania that caters to ASMR massage specifically, and it’s worth the drive over the New Jersey border into Bucks County. Apple & Eve Esthetics focuses on tactile stimulation to create an amazing massage: instead of having someone dig their fingers or elbows into your muscles, they use a light touch, fingernail scratches, feathers, brushes and other soft items that feel like a tickle. In short, it’s pure bliss.
The session is like your typical massage in that you’ll change into a robe and lie face down. Starting on your back, you’ll feel gentle sensations that pretty much lull you to a restful state that may even be sleep. You’ll get a scalp and face massage, too.
It’s warm and cozy, and you can choose the music you want, too. After the 45-minute session you’ll feel relaxed and energized. After your massage, head down the road to Penn View Farm for some fresh made chocolate milk from owner Eve Hockman’s grandfather, or in the opposite direction to The Station in Dublin where Eve’s brother owns an ice cream shop.
Eve and her mom Sheri Hockman offer a variety of other services, like facials, dermaplaning, microdermabrasion and microneedling; manual lymphatic draining; lash and brow improvements; full-body waxing; and airbrush tanning.
Apple & Eve Esthethics is located at 607 Middle Rd., Perkasie, PA. The spa is attached to a residential house, and there is parking and a designated entrance for the spa area.
