For the third phase of Ilona's transformational makeover, Image Consultant, Patti Morrison, took her to the Absolute Spa in Park Royal South for a special day of pampering. Located above the market, this is one of ten Absolute Spa locations in Metro Vancouver.
Ilona first enjoyed the rejuvenating eucalyptus steam room. Each room at the Absolute Spa is unique, with state of the art equipment and your own fireplace. Next Ilona had two treatments in the Rain Forest Hydrotherapy Suite. Here Ilona received a Relaxation Massage to destress her scalp, neck, shoulders and arms. "The sound of the waterfall during the massage was so calming." Ilona recalls, "It drowned out all my thoughts of what needed to get done, the lists that needed to be conquered."
Next Ilona had an Absolute Prescription Facial based on her skin's needs. Ilona said "I'd never had a facial before. The esthetician educated me on the importance of exfoliating and using toner on my skin. As I'm aging, I am definitely noticing the importance of looking after my skin - including using sun blocks and moisturizers. The fragrances and textures of the products the technician used were amazing."
After Ilona's treatments, she relaxed in the Relaxation Chill Lounge and was given complimentary spa cuisine - her choice of a fresh green salad or a fruit salad plate and beverage. To finish her afternoon, a member of the salon team gave Ilona a shampoo, blow dry and makeup lesson.
Ilona says "I am so grateful for this morning away from the reality of changing diapers and domesticity. I felt renewed, relaxed, revitilized and special." Ilona is looking forward to the next phase of her makeover which is trying on new looks at BJs Fashions.

THE THREE MOST POPULAR TREATMENTS AT A DAY SPA
1 Relax and Recharge with a Massage A good massage is one of the best ways to feel fully relaxed. There are many types of massages to choose from including aromatherapy, stones and deep treatments aimed at specific problems like stiff joints, muscle spasms or lack of energy or stress.
2 Hydrate Your Skin with a Classic Facial A facial is designed to wipe away the damage that everyday life puts on your face, leaving your skin looking healthy and younger. The face is deep cleansed using steam, peels, exfoliation, creams, lotions, and masks. There are special treatments for every skin type, from facials for acne to anti-aging to face brightening.
3 Couples Packages Consider booking sideby-side services in a room designed for two so you can share quality time with a friend or loved one. Packages can be customized but we recommend a massage, facial and water spa therapy.
