A workout that includes a remedy for post-session aches? You betcha, says oh-so-thoughtful Lithe Method. At Lithe’s new Rittenhouse outpost, those who’ve worked the club’s signature Pilates/ballet barre/cardio regimen a tad too hard can indulge in six different “Body Booster” treatments — like a shin-to-toe tendon rehab, or a lumbar-soothing paraffin wrap. And so can, ahem, those who haven’t worked it at all, since you don’t have to be a Lithe member to get in on the pampering. $55 per half-hour treatment. 255 South 17th Street, fourth floor, 215-545-5144, lithemethod.com.
