Massage Envy to the rescue! Massage Envy is a lifesaver. It was a 4:00 on a Friday afternoon and my neck was so wracked that is was permanently cocked to one side. If I moved the wrong way – pow – a ping of pain. It’s the same ol’ story: poor posture + stress + […]

StudioMixx Body Sculpting System
Always up for a challenge, I recently signed myself up for a StudioMixx Body Sculpting class and honestly, I get a little sore just thinking about it. I would consider myself active and in decent shape but this class truly kicked my butt – in a good way. If you enjoy a vigorous workout and welcome […]
Lash Extensions by Cresent of My Permanent Makeup AZ
I used to be seriously jealous of actresses and models who would show off the latest mascaras — their lashes are always ridiculously long and luscious — and when I would try the mascara they were marketing, I definitely did not get the same result. Then I met Cresent Gibbons of My Permanent Makeup AZ, […]

VH Spa for Vitality + Health at Hotel Valley Ho
Deep Stress? Try the Deep Six Massage at the VH Spa. As a soon-to-be-bride (3 weeks and counting, ahh!), I have been so stressed out that I can feel a tight line of knots across my back in between my shoulders. Not good. I decided it was time for a massage, but not just any […]
Space Massage
Arcadia’s hidden space for therapy that fuses traditional and Thai massage. Meticulously perfect. That is my best description of Space in Phoenix. As I parked on the street in front of Space Massage Studio, directly adjacent to massage therapist John Hill’s home, I immediately got a sense of familiarity. After all, two of my favorite […]

Can SmoothShapes really zap that cellulite? Read on! Ever had one of those days when you put on a pair of shorts or a swimsuit, looked at yourself in the mirror and thought “ugh, that could be toned, that should be gone, and that just isn’t right.” I know I have. When I have those […]
Par Exsalonce Salon & Day Spa
Spa Girl Olga made her way to Par Exsalonce for a head to toe nail transformation. Here's her glowing report! I have a bad case of dry skin which I generally like to refer to as alligatoritis (it’s scaly, it’s itchy, it’s no fun at all!), so when Donna Parr, owner of the super luxurious […]
Mane Attraction Salon
Our Spa-Girl-in-the-field Olga surrendered her ponytail to the competent hands of Mane Attraction salon’s star cutter. Here’s her tale! I have a severe case of ponytail syndrome, I have never been motivated enough to do anything with my hair aside from sticking it in a ponytail because up until yesterday, I strongly believed that my […]
