Have you fallen into post-spa depression (PSD)? Spa Week Spring 2012 may be over but the memories and benefits will last a lifetime! Last week we asked you for your Spa Week stories in exchange for more spa in the form of $50 Spa & Wellness Gift Cards for five of you. Winner #1 and her mom discovered The Bomb.

By Noemi Abreu

This was my first time getting a Thai Bomb Massage and it really was THE bomb! I took my mom with me to Enliven Body Works in NYC on the Sunday of Spa Week, and when we left the spa all she kept saying were two very powerful, happy key words: “BRAND. NEW.”

I have nothing but positive things to say about this spa. Enliven is small yet tidy and clean. Decor was simple but nice. The staff was very friendly and attentive. We were greeted with a smile and offered a glass of lemon water as soon as we entered. We were then escorted to a seating area and had our coats removed.

We didn’t wait long before we were escorted to our massage rooms. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Lily started my massage to the sound of relaxing spa music and scents. She started with a Swedish massage followed by the Thai massage with two heated herbal-filled balls (the bombs). It was like nothing I’ve experienced before. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. The heated herbal balls were so soothing,  relaxing and therapeutic. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.

I’ve since I recommended this spa and massage to all my friends. I cannot wait to re-live it. And my mom’s words are still echoing in my head: “I feel brand new!”

Thanks, Spa Week, for the wonderful (or should I say bomb!) experience! Looking forward to Spa Week Fall 2012. :)

Homemade necklaces and “The World’s Best Mom” mugs were cute when you were a kid, but now it’s time to give her a truly special gift. What better way to tell Mom you love her than by giving her a gift she’ll actually love? Give that generic Mother’s Day card more heart by including the gift of spa. She took care of you for all those years, and there is no better way to thank her than by gifting a spa treatment to cater to her own health and well-being. Don’t fret, your mom’s well-deserved Hot Stone Massage or European Facial is in affordable reach thanks to Spa Week’s Mother’s Day Gift Card Sale. From April 23 through May 14, pay only $85 for a $100 Spa & Wellness Gift Card by SpaWeek® with Free Gift Box on SpaWeek.com. Bonus: All Other Gift Cards on Sale too!

During the 2012 National Spring Spa Week Event, April 16-22, we were busy spreading the word on all the ahhh-mazing $50 treatments available from coast to coast and not to brag, but you may have seen us on TV.  Actually, we’re definitely bragging, but we have reason to. With the help of our spa partners and the Spa & Wellness Gift Card by Spa Week, we’re the driving force behind spreading the health and wellness benefits of the spa lifestyle with a price tag that’s within your budget.

And the buck doesn’t stop there… even though the National Spa Week Spring 2012 Event has offically come to a close (after hundreds of spas extended their $50 treatment offerings through April 30) we’re not about to stop spreading the word about wellness. Without further ado, we are delighted to present to you some of our recent TV segments showcasing the Spa & Wellness Gift Card by Spa Week, The National Spa Week Event and our spa partners’ luxurious $50 treatments. We’re ready for our close-up!

NBC 4 LA featuring Naturally Bare by Deidre

During this NBC 4 LA segment featuring Naturally Bare by Deidre, spa owner Deidre Gavin hits the nail on the head, saying, “What I like about Spa Week is it gives you an opportunity to meet new peopole that you would never meet  because they would have no way of finding you. So because they are familiar with Spa Week and they go to the website, they are able to locate you and come in and take advantage of your services.” We couldn’t agree more, Deidre!

The worst part of any great party is the end, but it can also be the beginning of something just as fun: the after party. We’re pleased to announce that the Spring Spa Week spa-rty isn’t over yet! And whether you missed the invite, your procrastination got the best of you, or if you’re just ready for round two already, lucky for you $50 treatments are staying up on SpaWeek.com thru April 30th! Every year, more than half of our spas decide that they are going to extend their Spa Week specials, to accommodate the high demand and to make sure they get a chance to treat and impress you. We’re keeping the facial steam pumpin’, the cucumber water flowin’ and we’re turning the music down real low. After all, the #1 goal for our spa partners is to give you an exclusive and affordable invite to the best party of all; the one where you leave feeling amazing.

Here’s the list of spas that are still accepting appointments throughout the end of April. You still have the chance to take advantage of the $50 sessions of healing, pampering, and relaxation!

Some may say that nothing in life is perfect, but at a place called Perfect Spa, would you be willing to suspend that reality?

In Midtown East in NYC, this little slice of Perfect-ion delivered a Korean Body Scrub with all the bells and whistles. It’s very easy for a scrub to just be a scrub, and I’ve had plenty of those. But the way they do it at Perfect Spa really rocked my bod, and entertained me too.

First, let’s get dressed. Well, undressed.

What I liked about this Korean Scrub most was the element of surprise. AND… that there was a lot of massaging involved. A “scrubassage,” my fave. I lost track of how many different scrubs and Vichy shower rinses there were over the course of 90 minutes, but each one was highly enjoyable and used some new ingredient. It started with a mitt scrub, then there were salt scrubs and sugar scrubs to follow. I’ve always been a salty-sweet kind of girl. (Chocolate covered pretzel lovers, you know what I’m talking about!)

Wash it all down… with milk, of course. The half gallon of Tuscan whole milk came out, as I flashed back to my milk bath in Tuscany, one that Cleopatra has taken so many times before. It says it right there on the bottle: VITAMIN D, but don’t be fooled, that’s only beneficial to your skin when you ingest it. The benefits of milk applied topically are plentiful. It’s moisturizing, soothes skin, and boosts cell regeneration. The alpha hydroxy acid contained in milk, called lactic acid, acts as a gentle cleanser for skin. It also acts as a natural skin brightener, can calm redness from a sunburn, and helps reduce some of the dryness and itching from various skin conditions like eczema.

Milk mixed with water was an essential part of this treatment, and yes, there’s my awkwardly deep belly button holding about a pint of it.

After rinsing and scrubbing some more, I heard the familiar sound of food-grating. (Okay fine, it wasn’t that familiar – I can’t even tell you the last time I grated anything but parmesan! But still – I recognized this sound.) Was this a mid-scrub snackeroo? It looked like an onion at first, which frightened me, whether it was snack or body garnish. But no, phew, it was actually an apple. Here’s why: Apples contain abundant amounts of both collagen and elastin, both great to promote firm, youthful skin. Braeburn apples, which is what Perfect Spa used, contain properties that can protect you from harmful UV rays.

After being lathered in American Pie, I was Vichy’d some more, then refreshingly misted with a toner. My winter skin had officially been removed, and layer of moisturizing lotion was massaged onto my body, sealing in the Korean ritual.

I loved the whole thing and left feeling like a new human being! You can see bits of it in the Wellness Gone Wild video. (Yes, I filmed AND Instagram’d the full thing and STILL enjoyed myself.)

It’s not too late to try them for Spa Week, and may I strongly suggest you do!
