Spa Week is almost over!!

If you haven’t had a chance to book your $50 spa treatment yet, don’t fret! Though many spas are entirely booked up through Sunday, there are STILL $50 treatments available at some spas on the West Coast and in Chicago.  What does that mean for you? It means that you can still take advantage of this biannual spa celebration and book $50 Spa Treatments for this weekend!

To find a participating spa in your area, visit spaweek.com.

Also… PSST… one of Spa Week’s best-kept secrets is that many spas decide to EXTEND their Spa Week specials for an extra week, even for the entire month. You have to ask the spa when you call up or check their websites to find out, but most consumers do not know this tidbit.

Massages and Facials and Wraps… Oh My!

It’s that time of the year again –  Spa Week!  The fall Spa Week event begins next week, which means you’re set to receive unbelievable, luxurious services at a ridiculously cheap price.  But some of you aren’t sure yet which service you’d like to get.  If you’re undecided, check out our list of the 12 hottest new spa trends, and pick the one that suits your unique needs.

1) Fighting Allergies - Sinus massages, breathe-easy facials and cold & flu bath salts are just a few of the spa services you’ll be seeing this upcoming Spa Week, just in time to soothe your seasonal allergies. Treat your immune system and clear your sinuses in the spa with new treatments using Eucaplyptus, humidifiers and Lymph drainage movements , to name just few of the techniques being used to assist in allergy relief.

2) Bikini Glamour - Vajazzling made its sparkly splash last Spa Week, when bedazzling your bikini became the hot new standard in girly glamour. Other treatments are quickly emerging in its footsteps to pamper your private parts: Bikini/Bum Facials are being offered to give the same attention down there as a esthetician would to your face: toner, extractions and masks included. Also, post-Brazilian waxing rituals such as Airbrush painting and Vattooing are now the latest in vaginal adornment.

Spa Week is back!

The 12th Bi-Annual Spa Week Event is April 12 – 18, when thousands of spa treatments that normally range from $75 – $500 are available for just $50 a piece at premiere spas, beauty salons and wellness centers all across North America.

Spas book up fast, and the early bird gets the worm! Head over to spaweek.com (www.spaweek.com), click on your region, sign up, then browse the extensive list of Spa Week spas and luxurious spa treatments available.

Spa Week is not just about getting a $50 massage (although that’s nice too)… it’s about the wellness lifestyle becoming an exciting, affordable reality. It’s about giving everyone the opportunity to sample new spa treatments, beauty rituals and mind-body experiences. It’s about educating and opening the doors so that everyone may reap the preventative, long-lasting health benefits of the spa.
