Massage therapy saves the day (and a relationship!) at this convenient and affordable day spa retreat in Scottsdale. I have an issue – my back. I don’t like it and it doesn’t like me. We’ve had a very strained relationship for the past year or so. I’ve sought out couple’s therapy via numerous massage therapists […]
Chroma Salon Studio
I’ve got great news, Spa Girls (and guys if you’re out there). This town has some amazingly talented hair stylists who don’t charge an arm and a leg and your first born. It just takes some work to find them. Case in point, Miranda of Chroma Salon Studio in Scottsdale. Her studio is tucked in the North […]
Primp and Blow at the Waterfront
Primp and Blow offers more than just fabulous blowouts! Read our review of their facial services. I don’t know about you but I’m not one for a phoo-phoo facial. If I’m not hanging on to the edge of the treatment bed for dear life at some point during the facial, I’m bored (yawn). If you […]

Fuchsia had us at hello. As soon we stepped foot into this pink haven, we were smitten with the enthusiastic staff, the energetic hues that danced throughout the boutique and spa, and the concept of fun, funky relaxation all rolled up into this hip package.

The Spa at Carefree Resort & Villas
First, let me share a little secret. The absolutely best time to visit a resort spa located smack in the heart of the Sonoran desert is during the dog days of summer. Chances are that you will have the place to yourself. And on this scorching day in August, I was lucky enough to find […]
Sedona Spa at Los Abrigados Resort & Spa
I've been a long time fan of Sedona Spa at Los Abrigados Resort & Spa. It's a great place to take a yoga class, sit in the jacuzzi and then go for a facial, massage or body wrap. Until recently, it's been one of the only finer spas in town, so these guys have been […]

The Eyes Are It
With all the hype surrounding eyelash extensions, I had to see what the new phenomenon is all about. I visited Roseann, the owner of the Eyes Are It. Roseann is an eyelash extension expert located in a cozy room nestled inside Scottsdales Salon Boutique. Upon my arrival, I kicked off my shoes and climbed into […]
Absolute Vitality Spa
Tucked in a boutique space within the Fiesta Resort and Conference Center, Absolute Vitality Spa has an unmistakably spa-like feel. Dimmed lighting and soft music set the relaxed tone and with two treatment rooms located at the back of the facility, services are performed in complete peace and quiet. My massage therapist began my treatment […]
MyoSymmetrix Advanced Massage Therapy
After hearing rave reviews about Myosymmetrix Therapeutic Massage, we had to see what all the hype was about. So, we sent resident massage missy Kari to check it out. Here’s what she dug up. When I arrived, my therapist Chad sat me down to discuss my stress-related body aches and what I hoped to heal […]
