You know those days where you wake up in the morning just needing a massage? Unfortunately, I have those mornings a lot more frequently than I would like to admit. After craving a massage for about a month, I ventured up Scottsdale Road for a much needed deep tissue massage at Elements Therapeutic Massage at […]

Healthy Glow Skin Care
Nestled in a quiet complex in Scottsdale, Healthy Glow Skin Care is the epitome of customized beauty. In desperate need of a pore cleansing and some relaxation, saying I was excited for my facial would have been an understatement. Upon arrival, the staff addressed me with a very low and calming tone. Arriving (late) from […]
Absolutely Chic Day Spa
Peoria’s hidden day spa gem for massage therapy bliss. As a lucky Spa Girl allowed to skip out of my duties for a few hours, I was counting the minutes to my visit to Absolutely Chic Day Spa for a one-hour Swedish massage. Hidden on the second floor of a medical complex, the boutique space is […]
SkinOvations Skin Care
It’s a rite of passage around here. If you can withstand your first Brazilian Bikini Wax and live to write about — you’re an official Spa Girl. Olga, girl, you’re in! Of course, we were nice enough to put her in the very caring hands of SkinOvations Skin Care in Glendale where we secretly knew […]

That’s why I’m obsessed with Primp and Blow […]

Tocasierra Spa is tucked away east of the main lobby with its own parking lot access. It can be […]
Glow Skin & Body Studio
Glow Skin & Body Studio is a little difficult to find, so I’ll start this review off with detailed directions: just north of Ray Road on 44th Street in the Phoenix/Ahwatukee area, you’ll find the nondescript Mountain Park Professional Plaza. Turn in to the plaza, park in front of building two, and walk to suite […]
Remedy Pilates & Massage
As I stepped out of my house to a glorious sunny and 80 degree day (thank you beautiful Arizona), it hit me: swimsuit season is just a few degrees away and I have in no way, shape or form begun toning and tightening for the occasion. Being a fan of mat Pilates and always a […]
