Feb Blog – Roller Coaster Riding

Link

Well we have successfully survived the January doldrums and are eagerly looking forward to some exciting weekends and even weekdays in the coming month!

I for one am celebrating both of those events ;the survival part and the excitment to come parts!  I guess I am still learning how to go with the flow of living in a seasonal economy that is so prevalent here in the Columbia Valley.  It’s kind of like riding a roller coaster of working like busy bees every long weekend and summer day when so many visitors enjoy what Radium and area has to offer, and then almost hibernating from November until March, along with our neighborhod bears, who could probably use a treatment or two themselves!

I want to let you know that 3 of the Therapists that work from Bare Hands Day spa are not hibernating  through February and are indeed here and ready to give any clients braving the roads (which have been pretty fine for the most part this winter) some of the best valued treatments available. 
Let me tell you first about our newest full time team member Misti.  Misti has been a reflexologist and massage therapist for  almost 9 years, and specializes in Russian Medical Massage.  She grew up in the valley and has worked at a number of the great spas through the area.  The Russian medical massage is a style that utilizes compression, jiggling, and friction strokes to relax and release tension in the body.  It is a great way to assist in relaxation or rehabilitation.  Misti  has offered a very generous special of the month that is to offer a 1/2 hr gift certificate to any recipient of a one hour massage.  So you receiving a one hour massage could help you share the benefit of massage with a friend or family member.  This is available weekdays only until Mar 15, 2012.  She also gives a great pedicure and you can quiz her on some of the best spots to eat  or be entertained in the valley. 
 
Over the past year many of our clients may have spoke to, been booked by or better yet been cared for in the Esthetics department or received a Lomi Lomi body alignment therapy from a wonderful therapist named Jean here at BHDS.  Jean has 20 +years in the industry and brings her genuine warmth to every interaction.  Jean’s special until Mar 15 is to upgrade your 60 minute Lomi Lomi  treatment to a 90 minute one for the lower price Mondays through Friday availability. The third Therapist that is available these winter months here at Bare Hands Day Spa is owner Heather Fischbuch.  Heather has been a massage and  reflexologist for 26 years and aromatherapist for over 10.  She loves her works and aims to let that fact shine through in each and every treatment.  A comfortable yet therapeutic style of massage which incorporates techniques  from Swedish, lymphatic drainage, reflexology and body talk assist many client to feel significant improvements after each treatment.  Heather winter special includes upgrading a 30 minute to a 45 minute massage for the lower price and offering 6 hand reflexology sessions for the great price of $100.  These sessions are a great kick start to optimizing your health. You so deserve it!Yes you! She loves sharing tid bits on nutritional information or better yet ask about Aromatherapy for specific challenges and you’ll make her day. 
 
We  will be looking forward to seeing you at one of the many special events here in the coming weeks such as the Pond Hockey tourny, Ladies curling bonspeil.  We know how to have fun out here and invite you to come share some with us soon. If those were not enough reason to visit,  another is Toursim Radium has developed some great pricing on all inclusive packages for the winter months to encourage your visits. We at Bare Hands  are one of the services you can fill your visit with.  Make sure to ask any of the 17 accomodaters listed in the package for the Bare Hands Day Spa  Romance retreat or 1 hour massage option.
Cheers and enjoy your winter!
