AME Salon and Spa

Yes, there IS a soothing waterfall in Wayne—it is located in the upstairs level of AME Salon and Spa. With six treatment rooms, up to six guests can enjoy at least two services during a spa party, like Rest on Water, which includes a full body scrub, hydrotherapy and ends with a hot mud, tea or body butter wrap. AME also has two relaxation areas, one of which is an enclosed second-level porch where guests can rest their feet on an ottoman and enjoy a variety of complimentary beverages, snacks and seasonal fruit. “Guests also love our third floor loft, which is available for up to three guests for side-by-side massages,” says Cathleen Helmuth, business development director.

While lunch is not available at AME, the salon does provide suggestions to their favorite local restaurants in Wayne. Guests may also bring their own bottle of wine and champagne, but the salon does ask their guests to limit it to one glass per guest. “Our spa party guests are left feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and connected,” says Helmuth.
