We sent Patrice from Afrobella to the prestigious Ruby Room in Chicago to try out the acupuncture they are offering during Spring 2010 Spa Week, and we were thrilled to be the catalyst to her newfound mindset of spiritual spa-going.

Elizabeth Adam is a spacious, full-service salon & spa at Water Tower Place. While they are known for their facials, don’t miss out on a pedicure, body bath, haircut, or hot stone massage, either!

Elizabeth Adam’s Philosophy:

I believe that beautiful, glowing skin, full, shiny hair and strong nails are a reflection of one’s health!

Singular most important piece of modern wellness advice they give their clients:

Pamper yourself! Pampering, after all, reduces stress, which is the relaxation goal of most spa-goers. That in itself is preventive.

“The Doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.” — Thomas Edison
