When I was first looking at spas in Bali, Prana Spa (full review coming soon) hit my radar. In looking at their signature treatments, I could see right away they had a Ayurvedic Rejuvenation Package. It was a 240 minute treatment. I had been reading and learning more about Ayurvedic philosophies, so even hough...
Who doesn’t love a good cupcake or even birthday cake? Seriously, I can’t resist. But birthday cake or even cupcakes don’t seem so spa-like, right? Maybe, maybe not. I am the type of gal who doesn’t believe in working on my birthday. Its not that I expect my birthday to be a national holiday,...
I was in Miami recently for a gathering of Health Coaches from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. It had been a #goal of mine to stay at the Betsy Hotel, since well, my name is Betsy. You don’t come across too many Betsy’s, so it’s always fun to see something so beloved that’s also named...
Not long ago we had a Super Blue Moon. There is something awe-inspiring about a large full moon, and the rarity of a “Blue Moon.” We know that the moon and its cycles have a powerful effect on the oceans and tides. We ourselves are connected to this powerful energy. We feel...
ESPA caught my eye because in addition to your typical spa services and packages they also have day-long retreats packages. This reminded me of Destination Spas that offer a variety of packages or journeys. Since I was in Singapore for business and did not have time for a full length Destination Spa Journey, a day...
Forest Bathing first caught my eye at the Lodge at Woodloch. It showed up on their list of activities. Forest Bathing grew out of Japan in the 1980’s when a doctor began prescribing spending time in nature to their patients as a way to deal with stress and a variety of stress related issues....
Qua Baths & Spa Qua Baths & Spa is notable for its award won, in large part due to its impressive Laconium. The spa’s theme bares little resemblance to Roman Baths (stealing from Caesar’s Palace Roman theme) and instead pays homage to the desert with a decidedly Arabian flare of Hammams. It features baths, a...
Mandalay Bay Spa The Spa at Mandalay Bay was probably one the very first spas I ever went to in Las Vegas. My very first spa experience in Las Vegas is no longer there, as the Aladdin Hotel became Planet Hollywood. Of course, all this was back in the day before blogs and social media...
Four Seasons Spa Las Vegas The Four Seasons Las Vegas is the only non-gaming hotel in Las Vegas on the strip. Its actually connected and accessible from the Mandalay Bay and Delano properties. Actually, they have a restaurant with an outdoor veranda, which is a really nice spot to have breakfast, especially if you are...
MGM Grand Spa MGM Grand Spa was one of the earliest spas I visited, and I recently had the opportunity to return to it for this blog. The Spa is a great spa option in Vegas, especially if you are staying at the MGM Grand. The MGM Grand has enough celebrities coming thought it either to...
