Tucked between Tumalo, Bend, and Redmond, Sage & Honey Spa is a local gem that truly feels like a peaceful countryside retreat. In fact, housed in a rustic horse barn on a family farm, the spa welcomes not only locals but also travelers and neighbors alike, allowing them to unwind, refresh, and feel truly cared for.
Founded in 2020 by advanced esthetician Nichola Mente, Sage & Honey Spa was inspired by her lifelong passion for skincare. In addition, Nichola specializes in facials, peels, hair removal, and customized spray tans — all of which are designed to help you feel confident, refreshed, and pampered.
The Story Behind Sage & Honey Spa
Nichola shares how her spa came to life. The name Sage & Honey is just as personal as the spa itself. Specifically, Sage represents the color Nichola loves and the plants that grow across Central Oregon, while Honey reflects the sweet touch of her husband’s farm harvest. Together, these elements perfectly capture the calm, joyful vibe of this boutique spa.
“Sage is my favorite color, it grows all over Central Oregon, and my husband harvests honey on our farm; both bring me joy. I like the way Sage & Honey Spa sounds.”
That joy and simplicity are reflected throughout the spa experience. Moreover, the space is intentionally designed to help guests relax, refresh, and reset, particularly during busy seasons of life.
Sage & Honey Spa Vibe: Peaceful, Welcoming, and Uniquely Central Oregon
The moment you arrive, the atmosphere immediately shifts. In fact, Sage & Honey Spa offers a calm, welcoming environment. Furthermore, being surrounded by farm life — free-range chickens, horses, open sky, and fresh air — enhances the sense of peace and relaxation.
“You can arrive early and take a walk before your treatment to decompress. Sage & Honey Spa is a very special treat for someone who wants to relax, refresh, and reset.” Her approach to skincare is intuitive and deeply personalized. “I am very sensitive and can really assess your skin rejuvenation needs. I give 110% to having you walk out feeling reset and refreshed.”
Holiday Gifting & Treating Yourself
For busy moms juggling a million things, even 30 minutes of quiet can feel life-changing. According to Nichola, it’s a nice way to step away from the chaos and check in on your wellness. In fact, decompressing and disconnecting for just 30 minutes can do wonders for your mindset.
Some of Sage & Honey’s most giftable and requested treatments:
And yes — they offer e-gift cards, physical gift cards, and bundled packages. These are perfect for holiday giving or “you deserve this” moments. Additionally, if a busy mom wants a quick pick-me-up before the holiday rush, Nichola recommends the Sage Combo. She also suggests the Facial + Eyebrow Wax + Lash Tint, both of which help moms feel instantly refreshed and rejuvenated.

Bring the Spa Home with Sage & Honey Skincare Products
Winter can be harsh on your skin, but Sage & Honey Spa has you covered with specially curated skincare packages. Perfect for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, these products deliver hydration, glow, and healthy skin all season long.
Wellness, Moms & Meaningful Reset Moments
Nichola is passionate about helping moms care for themselves in ways that feel attainable and restorative.
“Making time for yourself to refresh makes you more available to your family because you have refueled. It’s really important to prioritize yourself.”
Even small pockets of self-care can help moms feel more grounded, rested, and fully present in their daily lives.
In addition, this philosophy naturally aligns with another meaningful way mothers pause, reconnect, and celebrate their unique season of life—whether through capturing family memories in a portrait session or by cherishing thoughtful, curated moments that honor themselves and their loved ones.
A Spa Day + Photography Session: The Perfect Pairing
The glow, confidence, and refreshed energy clients feel after a Sage & Honey Spa treatment make it the ideal complement to any photo session — whether it’s a Motherhood session, Family session, or a Branding session. When clients have a chance to unwind beforehand, they step in front of the camera.
Pairing self-care with photography creates a full-circle experience: you feel your best and you capture it — preserving meaningful, authentic moments for your family, for your business, or simply for yourself.
Whether it’s documenting pregnancy, the newborn stage, everyday moments with growing kids, or even capturing a refreshed look for a branding session—it always shows in the photos.
If you’re planning a portrait session, then consider treating yourself to a facial or Zen treatment beforehand. This way, you’ll enjoy an extra boost of radiance and calm.
Plan Your Visit or Gift a Spa Experience
Whether you’re a busy mom needing a reset, a local seeking peaceful Central Oregon self-care, or someone preparing for a branding session or searching for the perfect holiday gift, Sage & Honey Spa is a must-visit Bend destination. In fact, you can book a treatment, purchase a gift card, or simply plan a rejuvenating moment just for yourself — because you deserve it.
