Spa 131 Insider: September 2015

It's that time of the year for pumpkin this, and pumpkin that. Even if you're not a gigantic fan of pumpkin spice like I am, you can't avoid it. Every year we search to find that special pumpkin concoction to offer you at Spa 131.

Our first is the Pumpkin Pedi $59 - an hour of feet pampering delight - includes scrub up to your knees, with massage, exfoliating, cutting, shaping and painting (or not.) So, so, so sweet!

2nd is Sea Salt and Pumpkin Exfoliating Massage. This hour service is a relaxing Swedish Massage with the exfoliating properties of pumpkin and salt. Your body will be kneaded till all the tension is gently rubbed away, along with summer dry skin. Then, hot towels will conclude the treatment in the most delightful way. All this for $59.

Finally - how about a delicious pumpkin facial? Truly my very favorite facial treat. Pumpkin is high in antioxidants and jam-packed with vitamins A, C and E, potassium, beta-carotene and zinc, which are all amazing anti-aging ingredients. That's why pumpkin can give your all-over skin a healthy and rejuvenated glow! Book this October Pumpkin Facial for just $59.

October also brings about two promotions for Social Awareness.

This campaign is always over-shadowed by the October Breast Cancer Campaign, but is so very important. Unfortunately, this is one area that South Carolina knows a lot about, in that we are #1 in the Nation for violence against woman. Spa 131 would like to be able to reach out a treat some ladies living in shelters because of domestic violence. Would you like to sponsor someone? Every $20 you donate can bring one lady into to Spa 131 during the last week of October. Please think about it - together we can put some big smiles on some deserving ladies.

October 8 from 5-7 is our annual PAINT IT PINK PARTY. There will be prize drawings. $15 mini-massages, FREE pink polish on fingers OR toes. Food - Beverage - Fun. It would be nice if you would drop by, We would love to have you. We just might have some honored guests joining us.

Finally, we are delighted to tell you about a new addition to our team. Ms. Yolanda Carson has relocated from Atlanta and now building a massage business with us. She is a single Mom of two adorable little ones and would sure appreciate you giving her a try. Yolanda is a SC Licensed Massage Therapist and a Certified Massage Cupping Therapist. You don't have to be a Hollywood A-lister to try cupping massage. We now have it right here at Spa 131. What is cupping massage? Here's a link to learn about it: http://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-16791/3-reasons-everyone-should-try-cupping.html (btw, you don't always have a mark afterward - I didn't!)

This isn't much of a newsletter, but short and sweet on our Spa-tober Specials. We hope to have you in real soon.
