Spascape Day Spa

rejuvenate

 
As a skincare professional I love popping pimples as much as, if not more than, the next guy but the truly exciting and challenging work comes in the Fall when I am faced with all the sundamage inflicted over the Summer.  I love the cooler months when we can really pamper and polish the skin in earnest, and peel, peel, peel away!

The first thing I would do is make an appointment at Spascape Day Spa for a Sea C Spa restorative facial.  Vitamin C is a powerful anti-oxidant known to help repair not only sundamage but environmental damage of any sort (pay attention here, you smokers!).   But the wonderful thing about our Sea C facial is that it combines the antidotal ability of vitamin C with healing ingredients from the sea, such as algae and thermal organic mud.  This is the facial to ask for if you really want to get your glow on!

For the next visit I would recommend getting a microdermabrasion treatment - preferably even sign up for a series of them.  I am in love with microdermabrasion and literally pine for it over the Summer when I choose not to do any clinical exfoliation.  If you've never had microdermabrasion I highly suggest you try it.  It doesn't hurt at all and I actually find the soft vacuming sensation to be soothing.  Despite its kind of intimidating sounding name, it is actually not too harsh  - even my sensitive skin can handle it.  Microdermabrasion is the way to go to thoroughly get rid of dead skin cells and even out surface discoloration and texture.  However, if your sundamage has been apparent for years and years and you are only just now doing something about it, it's going to be tough.  Not necessarily impossible, but tough.  I don't mean to put you off here, my point is that it is best to act promptly at the first signs of damage and even act pre-emptively with things like the Sea C Spa facial and of course gobs of sunscreen.

If the idea of microdermabrasion still puts you off then at least come in for a glycolic peel.    A peel is a less expensive way to go, and while one peel will make your skin silky soft and glowy, a series of peels can help reduce uneven skin tone.  I like to get a peel on a regular basis during the less sunny months, just because it is such a fabulous way to speed up the skin cell turnover rate and slow down the aging process.

While the Summer was all about protecting the skin, let this time of year be about rejuvenating it.  Give us a call today and book an appointment for whatever repair work you decide to do (781)545-1200.

Dos and Don'ts

I don't know about you but I always love the section in the magazines that shows the fashion do's and dont's.  There is nothing more entertaining than seeing a picture of a woman wearing purple striped tights and her skirt hiked up to her bikini line, with a big black bar across her face.  "Don't!" the caption screams.  And you can heave a satisfied sigh knowing that, yes you are in agreement and no, you would never be caught dead wearing something like that yourself.

Or perhaps you're not quite the fashion maven that I am, but I think everyone can enjoy a good list of dos and don'ts just in general.  Of course this is a blog for Spascape Day Spa so I would like to present you with a list of dos and don'ts relevant to our spa.  I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them and just remember the spa police are watching ;-)

DO come in early to your appointment to enjoy a few extra moments of relaxation in our magnificent ocean-tiled steam room.  Not only will it melt your tension away but steam rooms have also been proven to boost your immunity, improve your circulation, detoxify your lymphatic system, and even improve your skin.  Plus it's free with any service of one hour or longer!

DON'T hesitate to ask if we have any specials or promotions going on.  Chances are there is at least one great value happening at any given time.

DO shop for cosmetics that have skincare benefits as well as gorgeous wearability.  We carry two makeup lines that fit this bill:  the renowned Jane Iredale mineral makeup and the hip and sassy TheBalm from San Francisco.  I think you would love them both!

DON'T forget to drink a ton of water after your massage.  I know you drink that little cup the therapist gives your right after your massage but do you continue to pound down the H2O for the rest of the day as well?  You really need to eliminate all the toxins that the massage has loosened up and you will reap the benefits of your session all that much more.

DO be religious about applying your eyecream twice a day.  This is usually where the first signs of aging appear and you will need to use cream twice a day to effectively prevent and repair.  For those of you already trying to battle crows feet I can think of nothing better to use than the GM Collin Bota-Peptide Eye Contour.  It actively smoothes wrinkle and expression lines, hydrates, and helps reduce the dark circles and puffiness that comes with aging.

DON'T let the triple digit price tag on the Clairsonic products put you off.  Honestly, it is well worth the investment and is probably overall one of the most potent things you can do to improve your skin.  Sonic technology rocks!

DO keep your body hair trimmed down or grown out to 1/4 inch in length when you come in for waxing.  Not only will it be alot less painful this way but it will make the job go alot quicker as well.  And do take some Advil an hour ahead of time!

 So that is my short list.  I hope it was both educational and  entertaining.  Feel free to call us with any questions and don't forget we now have an impressive new location in Pinehills (781)545-1200

Pinehills VIP party

 

   

The party was only supposed to go until 8 pm but when I left at 8:30 it was still going strong. Everyone was having genuine fun at our Spascape Day Spa Pinehills Grand Opening VIP recption and that is all thanks to our spa owner and fearless leader Deb Larson.  Deb is my shero.  She has once again succeeded in putting together a warm, welcoming, almost family-like environment in which we can all relax and be our best selves.  It was an event where professionals, neighbors, and even the bigwigs mixed and
mingled without pretension.  Again, that is a reflection of Deb and her spas:  momentous yet down-to-earth,  and beee-u-tee-ful.  Yes the new Pinehills Spascape is  absolutely gorgeous - and I wouldn't expect anything less from Deb.

When you first walk in the spa's charming French doors you feel like you are on vacation in a luxury resort.  The expansive retail boutique lures you in with it's abundance of glorious goodies.  There are piles of adorable Big Buddha vegan handbags, sumptuous robes and lounge-wear, and the bling of jewelry sparkles at you from virtually every surface.  Of course there are also shelves and shelves of professional skincare and body care that represent Spascape's focus of earth meet sea.  But when you come in a little further and look beyond the  the glitz and glam you can see that the spa is serious about providing serenity and relaxation.  

 Everything is painted in a smooth, comforting sand color that makes you feel cocooned in warmth.  The esthetic beds are the cushiest I've ever felt and the massage rooms are big enough for you to get a side-by-side couple's massage in.  It all makes you go "Aaaaahhhhh."  But I digress, let's get back to the party...... 

There were tons of freebies.  I walked away with free nail polish, lip gloss, exoliators and moisturizers.  The various brand reps were there to talk to the guests about their products:  the awesome GM Collin skincare and Jane Iredale cosmetics were even touting the new products to be launched this Fall - a special sneak preview for all the loyal Spascape fans.  And Cristin, my skincare guru from Environ Skincare, was there giving free consultations.  Environ makes the most ingenious Vitamin A products on the market and she will also be at Pinehills on Monday and Tuesday if you want to have an in-depth complimentary skincare consultation with her.  Environ is THE way to go for any anti-aging concerns and Cristin knows everything about skin, even the most scientific detail there is.

Also on hand were various technicians from the Spascape team.  Many of your favorite estheticians and massage therapists from the other Spascape locations will be putting in some hours at the Pinehills spa.  And as well there will be new, highly trained therapists at Pinehills who I am anxious to try (I gotta get a series of microdermabrasion now that the Summer is over).  I had a good long talk with Gereth (see the posting Great Gereth) who has been massaging over-time at the Scituate spa because she is so popular, and she is extremely excited to be working at the new location now too.  And you know that just says it all - we are, all of, us extremely excited to be a part of Pinehills. 

I know, I know, it sounds like a party you hate to have missed.  But fear not, we are having another Pinehills event this Sunday October 3rd.  It will be an open house from 3-5 pm where there will also be freebies, brand reps, and Spascape team members to check out.  Feel free to swing by and say hi or if you have any questions you can call us at (781) 545-1200.

multi-tasking products

My little sister just got married in Yosemite National park in California and it was a glorious four day event.  The bride was as resplendent as the majestic scenery there but I had my work cut out for me trying to pack and prepare for everything from the variety of weather conditions of outdoor events to the more formal indoor social events that lasted for hours on end.  Not wanting to pay the extra fees for overweight luggage, I reduced the amount of products I brought by selecting ones that acted as practical multitaskers.  Which in turn inspired me to do a blog posting about all the tips and tricks and in-a-pinch substitutions that you can do with your various cosmetics. You'd be amazed at the gorgeous results you can achieve and of course using quality products helps tremendously - luckily I was fully stocked with items I bought here at Spascape Day Spa.

TheBalm's Bahama Mama bronzer was a must have for photography sessions as I did not want the bright lights to wash me out.  However it also came to my mom's rescue one night when she got a run in her pantyhose.  She had no choice but to take off her stockings and go bare-legged.  Of course she was mortified at her pale legs but I whipped out my makeup bag and gave her legs a good dusting of Bahama Mama until they looked bronzed and healthy.  If you really think about it, bronzer is perfect for anywhere on your face or body.  Needless to say my mom was very happy with the matte finish results, and sheer yet richly pigmented paraben-free color that compliments virtualy every skin tone.  You can see why Bahama Mama happens to be my favorite bronzer of all time.  

TheBalm's Sexy Mama translucent powder was another life-saver.  This invisible powder has oil-absorbing spheres to keep your makeup in place and shine-free for hours on end.  But I also used it as a dry shampoo.  I no longer travel with aerosol dry shampoos because so often the airpressure seems to leak out of them.  Why bother when a decent translucent powder will do the trick.  Armed with a big fluffy brush and my Sexy Mama powder I was able to refresh my hair throughout the day and even skip a shampoo when my alarm failed to go off and wake me up for the big post-wedding brunch.

Farmesthetics all-natural, fast-absorbing Lavender Milk is a fantastic all-purpose silky lotion that can be used on face or body and even lightly applied to dry hair to smooth down fly aways.  Why bother packing several different lotions when there is just one that will work wonders.  The air in Yosemite was super dry so I kept a little travel-size container of it in my purse at all times and boy was I grateful for that!  I have also heard that if you run out of your body lotion you can use your hair conditioner in the shower.  Just slather it all over your body, then rinse off and voila! you are hydrated.   

I love to use the sheer Jane Iredale PureMoist lipsticks to brighten up my entire face.  During the wedding reception I only had room for one small extra item in my little clutch so I brought the Jane Iredale lipstick in "Sabrina" (perfect all-flattering natural-looking color).  Not only is it a long-wearing, luscious, moisturizing lip color but I also touched up my entire makeup by applying it to my cheeks as a blush and my brow bones as an eye brightener.  It kept me looking fresh and glowing all night long.  After all, Jane Iredale's motto is "fool-proof and fabulous!"    P.S. I also heard that the celebrity makeup artists used this lipstick (and even lipgloss) trick on the fashion runways this season. 

And finally, the multi-tasker that I cannot do without is the BC Essentials lip balm.  Love love love this stuff!  The organic, petroleum-free lip balm is made with hydrating butters and soothing essential oils.  Not only does it keep my lips just-in-case kissably soft (the best man was a dreamy Scotsman!) but I also use it as a cuticle cream to prevent hang nails.  This was key because as I said the weather in Yosemite was extremely dry.  And one last trick with the lip balm is to use it to keep your eyebrows looking groomed and in place.  I just rubbed a little balm on a toothbrush and brushed the brows upward and outward.  I did this trick for my mom, my sister the bride, and myself before every event.  You would not believe how much this opens up the eyes and lifts the face. 

So next time you are packing for a trip, or find yourself in a pinch, think of Spascape and all the wonderful multi-taskers we have for sale here. You know what the boy scouts say:  "be prepared"!  (781) 545-1200.

the secret to good skin

The secret to good skin (besides having good genes!) is to pay attention to it.  Get to know your skin intimately - it is as special and unique as you are and has quirks and needs and likes and dislikes, just as you do.  And just like you, your skin will have good days and bad days.  It is the largest organ of your body and a part of your integumentary system, so don't you think it deserves the same TLC that you give your liver or say your lungs?  So pay attention.  Cherish it.  And I promise you that even problematic skin can have a chance to improve.

I myself have very reactive sensitive skin yet no one would ever know because I have learned over time to give it what it likes and avoid what it doesn't like - thus I am always complimented on my skin and people believe me to be alot younger than I am.  True, skincare is my profession, but I'll let you in on a little secret:  it's all about trial and error.  Start off with a good skin analysis from your favorite skincare professional and have them recommend some products to start with and either get free samples first or ask about the return policy if the product does not agree with you.  Remember trial and error is the key.  We here at Spascape Day Spa are more than happy to give you a free skincare analysis, product recommendations, or free skincare samples.   Our estheticians are highly trained, not just in the physiology of skin but in the professional products and ingredients that are out there.

So as I said, get intimate with your skin.  Don't be afraid to really look in the mirror.  Observe what is going on, it can change from day to day, or season to season.  Learn how to look for certain signs and adjust accordingly:

Is there dullness and/or a little puckering around the eyes or mouth?  If so, then your skin is dehydrated and a switch to a more hydrating/richer moisturizer is warranted and trying a creamy cleanser would not be remiss either - you will end up looking years younger. 

Or maybe you will notice some redness on your cheeks, chin, or nose which is an indication of sensitivity so you might want to shop around for very pure, gentle products that say "soothing" , especially ones that will keep you well hydrated.  Again, a more even skin tone can make you look years younger. 

But perhaps you look closely and notice that beneath the slight sheen on your face you see large or clogged pores.  You know your skin needs something but what?  I would recommend using a cleanser, and/or toner with salicylic acid, paired with a good oil-free moisturizer. That's the general rule of thumb but then again, you may be one of those people whose skin just does not like salicylic acid.  Some skin does not respond well to it so maybe your skin would prefer a little retinol.  Once you do find the right product you can have smoother, more refined skin which again, can make you look years younger.

I am a big believer that there is a skincare solution for virtually everyone, it's just a matter of observing your skin and trying things out.  Don't be afraid to turn to a skincare professional for help getting you on the right track - it is our joy to work with you - and don't be afraid to ask for those samples either!  Be a sample queen!  And most importantly, keep the faith and don't give up, your great-looking skin is out there.

Call today to book a consultation, or even better yet one of the fabulous Spascape facials, and be sure to ask all about our outstanding professional skincare products - I just know we will have something that is right for you (781) 545-1200

Cristin's visit

 Today Cristin - the brand rep for the Environ skincare line which we carry - came into Spascape Day Spa to do some more training.  It is always an education when Cristin comes to call. She is so knowledgeable about the scientific end of skincare - not just in regard to her line Environ but with all skincare data and research that is out there as well.  I definitely consider her a skincare expert and it was fascinating really what she had to say.

The first thing she discussed with us was sun protection. Apparently sunscreen with high spf has more chemicals than low spf but only a slight percentage more protection.  ie. spf 15 protects 93% but spf 30 protects 95%.  So you may want to rethink that spf 75 and just use a spf 15 being sure to reapply it regularly of course. It makes sense then that many European skincare products only have lower levels of spf and Environ (from South Africa actually) makes a fabulous low spf sunscreen.  Their RAD spf 16 water resistant antioxidant sunscreen is made without preservatives and fragrances, is jam packed with antioxidants and vitamin A, and is even a little hydrating to boot. Sounds good to me because if you think about it, do you really want all those extra chemicals (hello Nutregena spf 100!) on your skin? And just a reminder, if you are spending good money on expensive skincare treatments but you are not using a sunscreen then it is like throwing all that money down the toilet.  You are seriously undoing everything you have tried to repair.

And to address some vicious rumors going around that retinol palmitate (vitamin A) may cause cancer, Cristin says that the tests were incomplete and inconclusive and that the rumor is completely false. And she should know as she is totally on top of the whole Vitamin A situation because Environ is a dermatologist preferred, Vitamin A based, skincare line.

And while we were on the topic of potential carcinogenic ingredients Cristin also insisted that all the paraben tests were inconclusive as well, and that the media latched on to partial evidence and just ran with the whole thing.  Besides that, she said not all parabens are listed on your ingredients list, because American law states that companies do not need to list what is contained in the ingredients that come from their suppliers.  For example a "all natural" skincare cream may contain jojoba oil and it would list just jojoba oil BUT the jojoba oil that they received may already contain some trace parabens that they would not have to disclose.  I say this not to scare you but just so you know how prevailant parabens actually are - they are in so much of the food we eat even!  Fortunately Environ makes some products that are 100% paraben free and they use the same labels in all countries (subject to European laws) so they are required to reveal any hidden parabens if there are in fact any.  With Environ what you see is what you get.

In conclusion Cristin talked about how her Environ line works well in conjunction with most other skincare lines.  Which is perfect really.  She says go ahead and use your regular cleanser or toner and just add the Environ vitamin A treatment to your regimen.  That way you will be getting plenty of benefit from the anti-aging Environ vitamin A but you don't have to break the bank buying a whole new regimen.  I predict though that you will love Environ so much that as you run out of your usual products you will, one by one, replace them with Environ.

If you are interested in learning more about the Environ line or any skincare concerns in general feel free to stop by Spascape for a complimentary skincare consultation with one of our highly trained estheticians.  We also retail the Environ line and if we don't happen to have exactly what you are looking for we will be more than happy to special order it for you.  (781) 545-1200

Super Sandra

 We here at Spascape Day Spa are thrilled to welcome Sandra to our team.  Sandra hails from the North Shore where she worked at a bustling medi-spa. In fact she is a licensed medical esthetician, and she does nails and makeup as well (some of you may know her as one of MAC Cosmetics freelance makeup artists).  She has loads of experience, lots of energy, and did the most perfect brow wax I have ever seen.  I swear I'm not exaggerating.  I have been in this business for a dozen years and I want to worship at the feet of her holy waxingness to learn her secret to perfection and get her to do some waxing on me!

 Furthermore, Sandra is superb with the spray tan, a pro with the peels, and a savvy business woman in her own right.  At any given time she is apt to be running a special or promotion on her services so give the spa a call to see what she's got going on and book an appointment with her.  (781) 545-1200.

beauty inside & out

 The ultimate beauty attribute is having confidence and being comfortable in your own skin.  But to get there is much easier said than done.  Acceptance can be a two steps forward - one step back kind of proposition, something that many of us struggle with on a daily basis.  Of course you can learn to love yourself by taking good care of yourself ie. doing your best to eat right, get enough of sleep, and move and stretch your body.  And you may want to pamper yourself from time to time by booking a massage or facial, and yes, even buying that new shade of lipgloss.  But what about your insides? How do you achieve love and beauty from the inside out?

My aunt always taught me that you build self-esteem through doing esteemable acts.  This theory was supported by an article I came across in the May Issue of Allure Magazine.  In the article entitled 22 Ways to Look Better Naked  there is the tip and trick number 18 which states that besides trying to be gentle and loving to your self in order to feel beautiful, you may also want to be kind to other women.  It states, " 'There's nothing positive or attractive about criticizing another woman's appearance,' says self-esteem coach Laure Redmond.  'Even sitting around with your friends talking about how fat a certain celebrity looks...is destructive - and it certainly doesn't make you feel any better about yourself' ".  I thought that was lovely advice.  I try to be as postive as I can (and sometimes it's alot of work!) by surrounding myself with such inspiration as often as possible. 

I'm always perusing magazines, FaceBook, Twitter and other places to find quotes that uplift my spirit.  And in fact I often have to look no further than Spascape Day Spa itself as there are inspirational sayings everywhere in the spa: from a mug in the break room that says "do everything in life once and the fun things twice" to the big plaques in the reception area which quote spa owner Deb Larson's late mother, "let go and relax" and "after me, you come first".  

We at Spascape follow health/wellness and beauty gurus on FaceBook and Twitter as well.  For advice we follow Dr. Oz and noted women's health physician Dr. Christiane Northrup. For beauty we follow Sigma Makeup and Bliss Spa. For inspiration we follow Oprah, the Dalai Lama, and HealYourLife whose quote today was, "I've learned that you shouldn't go thru life with a catcher's mitt on both hands;you need to be able to throw something back."  from poet and feminist Maya Angelou. Pretty cool, isn't it?  And if you wanted to follow Spascape on Twitter or FaceBook (and see everyone we are following) we will give you $10 off any service just for signing up.  We may not be as wise as the Dalai Lama but we will let know of any events, specials, or promotions going on here at the spa.  

So as you can plainly see, for beauty inside and out, Spascape Day Spa is the place to be.  And the perfect time to come in is this Friday May 7,  from 4-8 for our Glam-For-Less event.  We will be offering light refreshments, express services at discounted prices, and 20% off any skincare purchased that evening.  What a great way to treat yourself right and sample several of our services in one visit - the price is right!  Express mani $15, express pedi $30, express facial $40, express massage $40.  Call to book your appointment now, the slots are filling up fast. (781) 545-1200

Reiki

 Probably everyone has heard of chakras by now but when I first started giving Reiki treatments they were basically only known to those who traveled in new-age circles.  And because many of you may have heard of chakras but are a little unclear on what they are let me explain in a nutshell.  Chakras are centers of energy in your body.  Think of them as self-contained reservoirs of energy that ebb and flow, constrict and contract, moving within themselves to feed and supply energy to the surrounding organs and body parts.  There are seven major chakras lined up and down our spinal area and there are many other more minor chakras throughout the body in places such as our hands, knees, and feet. They won't show up on xrays, they aren't a physical mass, but they are as much a part of ourselves as anything that is clearly visible.  Given this information, they are obviously not something we would want to ignore.  Just like you would want to keep your bones, or lungs or heart healthy, so you would want to maintain a healthy energy system - it will effect everything else within you.

So how do you maintain healthy chakras?  One of the easiest and most pleasant way to do so would be to receive a Reiki treatment.  Just as acupuncture creates health and healing by balancing your body's energy in its meridians, so does Reiki balance the energy in your body's chakras for health and healing.  In fact, Reiki will boost your entire body's immune system and strengthen it against illness, injury, and disease.  It is thought that sometimes an illness exists in your body's energy system before it actually manifests in the physical body itself.  Likewise a disease or injury that may have been expunged from the physical body can still linger in the energy body. You may not even be aware of these but Reiki can cure them.  It is the perfect adjunct to traditional Western medicine and in fact alot of hospital nurses give Reiki to their patients to help aid the recovery process.

You may be wondering then, how exactly Reiki works and what a Reiki treatment would feel like. Reiki is an extremely gentle, non-invasive hands-on healing process where the recipient remains fully clothed.  It is deeply relaxing and creates a feeling of peacefulness and well-being: in fact the perfect anti-dote if you are rundown or stressed out.  The Reiki practitioner has been trained to scan and analyze your energy system and then perform specific hand placements that correspond to the various chakras.  For example, if you had bronchitis they would place their hands lightly over your heart chakra because that is the center that governs the lungs.  The Reiki practitioner would not be passing their own personal energy into replenishing the weakened heart chakra but rather they are acting as a channel that directs the Universal Life Force (the energy that everything in the Universe is made up of) into your system.  A Reiki practitioner has had their own energy system opened and cleared so that they may better act as a channel.

Now what does Reiki have to do with Spascape Day Spa?  First of all, Reiki treatments have always been on our menu of services ($50 for a thirty minute session or $70 for an hour) and it is something we promote as part of our focus on health and wellness.  Second of all, right now I am offering a INTRODUCTORY SPECIAL of 15% OFF any Reiki treatment that you book with me, Kate.  I have been practicing Reiki and other energy work such as acupressure since 1996 and I am highly sensitive and attuned toward the body's energy systems.  If you are recovering from a surgery, or fighting off the flu, I'm the one to come see.  In fact, I have done so much energy work over the years that my own touch is just naturally healing and if you were to get a facial from me (I am one of the estheticians here) the Reiki energy would automatically flow through during the process of the facial.  I have had many a client who reported feeling inordinately relaxed after one of my facials or even a brow wax!  It's a nice bonus.  

Feel free to call me at the spa with any questions, or go ahead and book a Reiki appointment and we can work together on whatever it is you need.  (781)545-1200

Spring Fever

 March 20th officially marks the first day of Spring and we here at Spascape Day Spa are READY! I imagine you are too.  

Clients have been talking about starting to venture out in the wilds that have become their back yards to do some serious cleaning up.  And just as we need to do a little Springtime maintenance outdoors, so we need to do a little sprucing up on ourselves right now.  I know I'm not the only one out there who tends to let things like pedicures, waxing, and body exfoliation slide during the Winter, but now is the time to start booking that mani-pedi, body polish, and leg wax.

Of course there is so much more to Springtime than planting, pruning, and polishing up.  It is also time to rejoice in the splendor of the great outdoors.  There is just so much more you can do in the warm weather. Like for us here at Spascape, we offer manicures and pedicures outside on our deck, and for those of you who don't already know, our deck is right on the wharf.  It is absolutely delicious to sit there, get pampered and watch the comings and goings of all the boats.

I was talking to our spa owner and fearless leader Deb Larson about what she loves to do most in the warm weather and she said, " I love to take my grandchildren for walks and to the beach, playground. I also like to sit on my front porch with my husband and talk, joke and laugh. Once the temp hits 50 degrees I drive around in my convertible, with sunscreen of course!"  And Robin, our hard-working receptionist and person who keeps the spa running smoothly, said she can't wait to get on a boat and go out fishing!  She also loves to hang out on the beach with her family and take her doggy Jake for long walks.  As for myself, I can't wait to get my doggie back.  I moved here from California last month and the airlines don't let you fly your pets until the weather is warmer (well above 40 degrees) so I have my precious Annie staying with friends until it is safe to fly her out to me.  I miss her so much!  So that is what I am most looking forward to with the warm weather.  And one thing all three of us agreed on that we were looking forward to here at the spa is "SPRAY TANS!!!!"  What are you most looking forward to with the upcoming warm weather?  Leave us a comment!

For a spray tan or other much needed maintanence give us a call (781) 545-1200
