Every summer, Miami Spa Month—an initiative by the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB)—invites locals and travelers alike to indulge in the city’s finest wellness experiences at unbeatable prices. But this year, two of Miami’s most exceptional sanctuaries are elevating the experience from pampering to profoundly transformative.
Enter K’Alma Spa in the iconic Victor Hotel on Ocean Drive and Leaf Spa inside the tranquil Hotel AKA Brickell. These aren’t your typical spas. They are intentional wellness destinations, deeply rooted in Andean tradition and designed for physical, emotional, and energetic realignment.
"Every experience is designed to help you find your why—so you can align with your what," says Marizza Contreras, the visionary behind both K’Alma and Leaf Spa. Her philosophy infuses every element, from hand-harvested Peruvian teas and chakra-aligning crystals to native textiles and sacred herbs used throughout the journey.
At K’Alma Spa, the experience begins with a whimsical, yet revealing Spirit Animal quiz. Guests uncover their personal energetic archetype—think dolphin, lion, or owl—which then informs a customized treatment experience. From there, guests can opt into immersive offerings like the Bio-Well Energy Field Scan or the signature Transcend & Detox ritual, which blends lymphatic massage, a seaweed wrap, and an herbal smudging ceremony. For those drawn to deeper introspection, shaman-led elements foster spiritual connection and realignment.
Just across the bridge, Leaf Spa at Hotel AKA Brickell marries ancient ritual with modern innovation. Its Spa Month packages combine traditional massage and facial techniques with cutting-edge wellness tech like infrared saunas and hydrotherapy tubs. Healing additions such as sound bowl therapy, guided meditation, and sacred herbal rituals ensure every visit is a multisensory escape. For guests seeking even deeper customization, Epigenetic Testing is available for just $199—a fraction of the cost of similar services elsewhere—enabling treatments to be tailored to each person’s unique biological blueprint.
Three curated journeys await:
Restore: An anti-inflammatory ritual ideal for joint pain, fatigue, and stress
Renew: A detoxifying path focused on lymphatic flow and toxin release
Rejuvenate: A longevity-boosting experience aimed at cellular regeneration and collagen support
These offerings are available at exceptional Spa Month pricing—starting at just $109 for 30-minute experiences and maxing out at $159 for indulgent 80-minute journeys. It’s high-impact healing wrapped in Miami glamour and spiritual depth.
K’Alma and Leaf aren’t just participating in Miami Spa Month—they’re transforming it. In a city that thrives on both luxury and wellness, these sacred sanctuaries are offering more than a break from routine. They’re offering a way back to yourself.
