The 4 Best Day Spas in New Jersey for Ultimate Relaxation

Bangz Salon and Wellness Spa offers a premier full-service experience for both luxurious spa treatments and hair care.
From expert hair styling and coloring to indulgent manicures, pedicures, and hair extensions, every service is designed to enhance your inner and outer beauty.
Bangz is housed in a historic building on South Fullerton Avenue, originally erected in 1889. The building has since been renovated with meticulous care, providing a beautiful backdrop for a few hours of R&R.
We love this spa’s blend of classic charm with modern luxury, featuring five tranquil treatment rooms where you can unwind with stress-relieving massages or rejuvenating facials.
The best part is that you can find your way from Blue Oak to Bangz with ease. Take Broad Street to Sunset Avenue to Grove Street, then turn onto Bloomfield Avenue, then onto South Fullerton Avenue.

This luxurious spot features a thoughtfully curated blend of amenities including a hydrotherapy pool, a Himalayan salt sauna, and a wide range of treatments and services. There’s an on-site cafe, too, with smoothies, salads, and other delicious, feel-good food.
From world-class massages to authentic Korean body scrubs, SoJo Spa Club offers a diverse range of treatments tailored to refresh both body and mind. We especially love the infinity pool that offers panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline and the huge massage pools on lower floors.
To get to SoJo from Blue Oak, take the Garden State Parkway North to I-80 East and I-95 North. Take exit 73 so you don’t get onto the George Washington Bridge into New York. Turn left at the end of the exit, then turn right onto River Road and keep going for a while — you can’t miss SoJo on your right.

5 Relaxing Cannabis Products to Try Before Your Spa Visit
When visiting New Jersey’s best day spas, respect each location’s rules and guidelines regarding cannabis consumption to ensure a harmonious experience.
Most spas do not allow consumption, so plan ahead. You’re best off enjoying your cannabis products at home before getting a designated driver or a rideshare for your dream day away.
Don’t overindulge, either. Take a small dose that you know is right for a light buzz that won’t interfere with other guests enjoying their spa day.
That being said, these five products are great options to get your mind right for the ultimate day of relaxation.
Our menu rotates regularly, so some products below may be out of stock. Browse our online menu for the latest options, and visit Blue Oak in Bloomfield for caring, personalized guidance and product recommendations from our expert sales specialists.
niche. Pre-Rolls and Flower
With a single pre-roll or eighth of flower from niche.,you may achieve the perfect mindset for relaxing before a spa day.
We love niche.’s Lemmon 7 cultivar for uplifting effects, and we adore its Bluephoria strain for full-body relaxation without any mental fog.
Enjoying niche.’s cultivars may help you ease into a tranquil state before your spa visit or prolong the serene vibes as you transition to a restful evening.
Grön Pearls
Grön’s spherical pearls are edibles that may strike the perfect balance between bliss and too blissed out.
Many people say these gummies are just right for taking the edge off without feeling too “high.”
The Lychee Limeade Pearls may help you feel dialed in during a hands-on massage, while the Blackberry Lemonade Pearls may help you extend your spa day’s tranquility into your bedtime routine.
Take half a gummy, or even a quarter-gummy, if microdosing cannabis is typically a better experience for you.
Fernway Disposable Vapes
Fernway’s variety of all-in-one vapes offers a premium choice for those seeking potential relaxation before a spa day.
With delicious flavors ranging from elderflower to mandarin orange, these vapes’ beautiful sensory experience pairs perfectly with a spa day.
There are also options if you shop based more on effects and strains than flavor.
The Pineapple Express vape may support tuning in deeply to a rejuvenating treatment, whereas the Glass Slipper vape may help you get a little lost (in the good way).
For any dream spa day experience, there’s a Fernway vape to help you get there.
1906 Tablets
For a swallowable, gluten-free, vegan edible with no calories or sugar, choose 1906’s cannabis products.
The Bliss and Chill tablets especially suit spa days, with 5 mg tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and 25 mg cannabidiol (CBD) per Chill tablet to promote low-key vibes amid the spa’s peaceful backdrop.
For a more immersive yet still balanced experience, the Bliss tablets contain 5 mg each of THC and CBD.
1906 tablets are often found to be fast-acting, too, so you may feel their effects within 20 minutes. Plan accordingly.
Wyld Gummies
Among Wyld’s line of colorfully packaged cannabis edibles, we prefer the Strawberry 20:1 CBD:THC gummies for spa days.
This super mellow, CBD-dominant blend may leave you feeling calm but not groggy — the perfect companion for a spa day.
Wyld’s Grapefruit gummies are another great option, with 10 mg each of THC, cannabigerol (CBG), and cannabichromene (CBC) per piece.
You may feel blissful yet energized with these gummies, giving you both spa-appropriate tranquility and an extra push to explore the entire facility.
CBD-Infused Treatments and Products to Elevate Your Spa Experience
Some day spas and similar facilities in New Jersey offer CBD massages since CBD is associated with relaxation.
It’s also non-intoxicating if no THC is present (THC is the intoxicating compound in cannabis).
CBD Massages
CBD-infused massages are a next-level experience in which this wonder cannabinoid is combined with traditional massage techniques.
These massages involve working a CBD-infused oil or cream in the process into your skin to help alleviate muscle tension and promote relaxation.
CBD massages may be particularly beneficial for those seeking relief from chronic pain or stress, as they integrate the potentially calming effects of CBD with the restorative power of traditional massage therapy.
Some popular spots in NJ for CBD massages include:
Top CBD Topicals and Oils for Spa Day at Home
CBD topicals are perfect for a relaxing at-home spa day.
Simply massage these products into sore muscles or trouble areas to enjoy their potentially calming and soothing properties.
At Blue Oak, all cannabis topicals are non-intoxicating, including CBD topicals that also contain THC.
Our menu is home to options from Dr. Solomon’s, Treeworks Collective, and Escape Artists that are lush, easy to apply, and often found to minimize unwelcome sensations.
Tips For Making The Most of Your Cannabis-Enhanced Spa Day
Respect the Spa Rules
It’s important to adhere to the spa’s rules and guidelines when incorporating cannabis or CBD into your spa day.
Confirm that the spa allows the use of cannabis or CBD products before consuming them during any visit. It’s almost always best to consume before arrival.
Respect any restrictions a spa has about cannabis products on the premises.
Time Your Dose Properly
Your timing is crucial to fully enjoy the benefits of CBD during your spa day.
If you’re consuming edibles or tinctures, take them around one hour before your appointment to allow the effects to kick in. Some edibles are faster-acting than others, so be sure to read the package — and know how your body responds! — before selecting the right window.
If you’re trying a pre-roll or flower, time your session for around 15 minutes before you go.
Craft A Relaxation Routine After Your Spa Visit
Reap the full benefits of your spa day by continuing the relaxing vibe once you get home.
Consider incorporating CBD-infused bath products, such as bath bombs or soaks, to continue unwinding.
Follow up with a light, soothing activity like reading, gentle stretching, or yoga to maintain your relaxed state. Soft music and dim lighting will also be your friend.
Choose the Right Products
Be sure you’re selecting cannabis products that complement your relaxation goals.
For a spa day, CBD topicals may provide targeted relief and stress reduction, whereas edibles, tinctures, or strains may promote overall calmness.
Research and choose high-quality products from reputable brands to ensure the best results.
Use Extra Caution in a Steam Room or Sauna
Cannabis can cause dry mouth and make you feel dehydrated as a result. Those effects may be amplified by the extreme heat of a sauna or steam room.
Drink lots of water before, during, and after your spa day to help your body process the effects of cannabis and your treatments.
Complement your spa day with light, nourishing meals that enhance the effects of the day beyond your appointment.
