ANANAS  SPA TIP FOR JULY 2010

SPA SERVICES AT HOME AND IN THE GARDEN


Hello JULY, and all our wonderful customers.

Those of you who visit in the summer will be starting to enjoy your lovely gardens, and for those of us who are here all year long  isn't it glorious? What a month we have had and more to come. Which makes us think perhaps you might choose to have spa services AT YOUR HOME, AND IN YOUR GARDEN.

Whether this means a massage in a shady nook of your garden, a facial before a sun-filled window or a manicure in front of your fireplace, our services in your home are superb.

Ananas has two new programs that are wonderful to have at home. Plan a party for your girlfriends and invite our nutrition and wellness coach, Jennifer Taylor, to come and show/advise/inspire you to feed yourself better in every way and live your best. Or book Jennifer all for yourself and learn how to eat honestly and take proper care of yourself. She is a fount of knowledge.

And Kirk Ornstein from Reebok club in New York has joined our staff for the summer to do fitness training in the fresh air. He will work with you in your own garden or at the beach, anywhere out in the sea breeze filled fresh air, and his training credentials are impressive. Please visit our website at www.ananasspa.com to look at both Jennifer and Kirk's programs.

If you have a house full of guests, are sharing a day with your bridesmaids, or if you simply want to spend a day of relaxation with your favorite friends, Ananas Spa will be happy to arrange a Spa Party at your house in which we will bring a day of absolute enjoyment to you and your group.

We offer superlative massage for individuals or, even more luxuriously, for couples. Our couples treatment includes crystal flutes of champagne, chocolate truffles and more importantly, expert massage therapists working in concert to help you relax and rediscover a sense of quiet balance together after a long day. We offer Swedish massage, deep tissue or a combination of both.

Our aestheticians will refresh dry and damaged skin with your choice of our world class Yonka Paris facials certain to ease away the stress, and our technicians perform flawless manicures and pedicures. If you need your hair swept into an updo, or blown out for a party, we will be happy to send over one of our hairstylists.

All of this is to help you relax and enjoy your summer in Southampton. In addition to spa services we can provide food, flowers and anything else you need to have a very happy party.

You and your friends will be talking about it for weeks!

Have a splendid July,

Best wishes,

Pamela and Renata


ANANAS SPA TIP FOR JUNE 

NUTRITION AND WELLNESS COACHING


I have been a vegetarian for 35 years, although recently at dinner at WD 50 in the city I was informed that since I still eat fish I am actually a Pescatarian!!! And I am very happy with being a pescatarian, I don't like what they are putting in those animals that are farmed for I became a pescatarian to lose some weight and once lost, I just found I couldn't eat meat any more. That was fine, although occasionally it is a little inconvenient for a hostess, but I am very happy with some good olive oil and warm bread! But recently my business partner, Renata, started taking courses in Nutrition and Wellness and made a friendship that will be transformative for Ananas Spa. She met Jennifer Taylor, a Nutrition and Wellness Coach. You will have received our email about Jennifer with information about her training and education in the field, so I won't reiterate, but I'd like to tell you about her recent demonstration at the spa given for our staff.

(We are going to be doing these demonstrations once a month, and they are also available to be held in your corporate environment if each person puts in a small amount of money (depends on the size of the group) then Jennifer can address you, too and IT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE.) So the evening of her talk to us all at Ananas she brought with her a blender that I have since discovered is like the holy grail of blenders.... and she whipped up two different smoothies that we can have for our breakfasts. I am now making these each morning at home. It takes about 5 minutes and I am so happy with the knowledge that this quite yummy green (or dark blue if you use blueberries) mixture is giving me all those wonderful antioxidants and greens that each of us should be having every day.

I have always been one of those people who can learn to love what is good for them, and I have learned to love this! (It didn't take much effort, it really is delicious). Jennifer is going to be doing demonstrations at Ananas during the summer on subjects like: Sugar Blues, Glorious Greens, Beauty Inside Out. They are important topics, and she knows how to help each of us make some small changes, bit by bit, that will really support a healthier, more radiant you. Jennifer is also available to consult at Ananas Spa one-on-one on Thursdays and Fridays from 4-7, and on Saturdays from 10-5.

I know that I have gone on a bit longer than usual in this "tip" but I am serious about the value of Jennifer's information and proud and delighted that she wants to work with us at Ananas to make you the best you can possibly be. Come on, try a blue dragon smoothie!

It can't hurt and it can make you more lively and more lovely.

See you at the spa,

Best regards,

Pamela and Renata

ANANAS SPA TIP FOR MAY


SUN! It's here and there's going to be more! Are you ready for the summer and your new bathing suit? Ananas Spa knows how to help. Our superb aestheticians recently finished advanced training in the Yonka Eclat Cocoon Facial and are ready to put you into a state of blissthen you can put that beautiful toned figure out there confident that a series of Endermologie and Lipomassage has prepared you to feel and look your personal best. Relaxation, enhanced body fitness we are your passport to summer.

Read on to see what these two wonderful treatments do for you.

YONKA ECLAT COCOON FACIAL                         

Sweet, warm, energising and fruity scents are the first pleasures you experience. The Yonka Eclat Cocoon facial is supremely relaxing and ultra-hydrating and features the gentle feel of heated preparations, the comfort of TWO MASSAGES, a HOT STONE and a manual massage, and the velvety pleasure of the textures of TWO MASKS including the new Mask No. 1 for intense hydration. 

 

After the initial aromatic warm compress the face is cleansed with the rich, emollient nettoyant creme. Then the refreshing lucas spray distributes emulsion concentree. Next the aesthetician exfoliates with gommage 305, and follows with the first mask, Mask No. 1 which is administered with a hot stone massage on the neck, decollete, and face. The massage is sublime. Eye contour massage is performed with phyto contour, and the face and neck are treated to a vial of phyto 52 and mesonium 1. Lips are treated with nutri contour and the second mask masque modelant with pamplemousse is applied to the face. To finish a base of elestine jour or le baume visage is smoothed on the glowing face.

Who will enjoy this unsurpassed hydrating and relaxing facial with hot stones?

Fans of relaxation and well-being, dehydrated skin and dull complexions, all customers who want an effective and original treatment, and all customers who want "plumped up skin" and a glowing complexion----and that is just about everyone!

ENDERMOLOGIE AND LIPOMASSAGE

Ananas Spa would like to offer a gentle reminder that bathing suit weather is just weeks away... Are you ready? We can help you prepare with a scientifically proven system of endermologie and lipomassage. Both were created by the French who know a thing or two about bodies, and are not only efficacious but beneficial. What you are required to do is hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. You should increase the number of glasses of water you drink to at least 8, 10 is even better. AND come to Ananas Spa and sign up for a series of 12 sessions (some people require more, some less) with our expert aestheticians who will help minimize the appearance of those orange-peelly bumps on your tummy, hips and thighs.

 

Endermologie is the overall treatment for your body, lipomassage targets problem areas that you want to tackle. Both will make you look and feel your best. These forms of massage are performed while you wear a specially designed opaque white bodysuit for ease of movement with our state of the art machine. The massage does so much to improve circulation that professional athletes frequently use it to speed healing after an injury. You will find that the relaxing rhythm of the rollers invigorates you as no traditional massage can.

VOILA, you are radiant and toned. It doesn't get any better than that.

See you at the spa,

Best, Pamela and Renata


ANANAS SPA TIP FOR APRIL 


Are you ready? It's actually here! Spring has arrived, what a relief, but are you READY?

How is your skin? Have you had a cleansing facial in the last couple of months? Come in and have a Yonka le Grand Classique facial and our new BODY LUSH HYDRATING WRAP.

You are going to need to refresh your makeup...come to us and let our makeup artist show you how to lighten up and achieve a dewy, Spring like look.

 You are going to want to go out with bare legs...are they waxed, are they exfoliated, are they tanned? Come on in, they can be all of the above in a jiffy.

You are going to have to start thinking about a bathing suit sometime in the not so distant future... do you need a few endermologie treatments to get those thighs as firm and sleek as possible? We excel at endermologie!

Is your hair a little faded and dull? Let our hair stylist give you a fresh cut, a rich conditioning treatment, and some  brighter color.

Have you seen the new, pretty colors for nails for Spring? We have a new line from Spa Ritual with delicate colors like Free Bird, Love is in the Air, Miss World and that sexy mink brown shade called Sage Cream. Don't forget our favorite, Laurie from Zoya. It's healthy for you and your nails.

Let me tell you more about our new BODY LUSH HYDRATING WRAP. I just had it last week and my skin felt like a baby's for days. I had it in conjunction with a cleansing facial and they almost had to roll me off the table I was so relaxed.

I started out face down and naked. Don't worry, if you are modest we provide disposable panties. The aesthetician began the treatment by rubbing me down with exfoliating mittens that felt exhilarating and gave me a warm glow. Then a hot towel compress was gently pressed down the length of my back. I flipped over and this was repeated. Next the Body Lush Hydrating Wrap was applied all over in long smooth strokes and I was wrapped up like a gift package in a sheet, and then snuggled into a downy duvet which was tucked under my feet. So while I was cocooned like this for 20 to 30 minutes the facial was begun, and I was in heaven. This product has the most intriguing aroma: part vanilla, part fruit - I really felt delicious!

Upon being unwrapped the masque was smoothed into my skin with a full body light massage. I was helped up into a sitting position (at this point I was like a wet noodle and needed the assistance!) and my back was gently rubbed down with a warm dry towel. I have to say, my skin was radiant. I took a few minutes to gather my wits and left knowing my skin had been treated to a superb hydrating process.

I had the Body Lush Hydrating Wrap with a facial as an add-on, but it can be enjoyed on its own as an escape from the doldrums with gorgeous results.

See you at Ananas; we'll get you ready for Spring!

L'EVASION SENSORIELLE - SENSORY ESCAPE

When a facial has a name like this you HAVE to wonder -what on earth is it? Well, I just had it and it is the most relaxing facial I have ever experienced. And on top of that, it hydrates and lifts!

It is a YONKA Paris facial for

Women who want an original and sensorial facial,

For women with dull, dreary complexions that need reviving before an event,

For stressed, tense, women who need a relaxing treatment of well-being.

The special feature of l'evasion sensorel is the fan brushes made of fine goat hair. They are stroked over you face, arms and decollete three times during the expenience, and if that doesn't relax you then nothing will.




The facial features warmth as its other special factor. Warm towels, wet and dry, warm creams, warm lotions. The only part that is cool is the masque which has the most delicious aroma and is designed for this facial exclusively to lift and hydrate.

So it starts with a warm towel on the hands and arms, you are actually wrapped in it and it is pressed close to you for a comforting feeling that immediately signals you are safe, you are in good hands, you can relax.

After cleansing with warmed creme nettoyant, the brushes begin. Two fan brushes of the softest goat hair are stroked slowly and rythmically along your face, arms and upper decollete. The aesthetician's hands move in a ballet over your skin. You start to doze off - and wake yourself up so you won't miss the rest of the experience! The signature Yonka lucas spray comes BEFORE the warm gommage in this facial and it feels quite different. Also the gommage is stroked over the neck which I had never experienced before. Then those wonderful brushes again. I almost succumbed, but I had to write about this for you so I forced my self to stay awake!

The brush massage is heaven and it is followed by warm hands that stroke the face, neck, decollete, and eyes. This is preparation for the masque which is applied thickly and smells divine...and before the masque goes on a warm towel is placed under each shoulder blade to help in the relaxation process (as if I needed any!). During the masque my feet were tenderly wiped with another warm towel and gently massaged. This was approaching bliss.

The masque is lifted off, and those magic brushes start again...then a base cream of fruitelia which is so satisfying to the senses, and a long arm stretch over the head, and believe it or not, those brushes again, stroking down my back after yet another warm compress.

I won't go into all the creams and lotions that are used in the facial, they are wonderful, but the focus here is on relaxation and it is just that - an experience of new sensations, radiant stress-free skin, and restored harmony.

Do try this, it will change your life and give you such a sense of joy to know that you can come and treat yourself to this little bit of relaxation heaven when you need


 

PLAISIR DES SENS FACIAL WITH A DEEP PORE CLEANSING ELEMENT


This facial has long been our most luxurious, but for February we decided to add a deep cleansing element, so you really can have your cake and eat it too! And leave with a brightened complexion; one more youthful, fresh and dewy.

Plaisir Des Sens is a term referring to pleasure of the senses, and the combined elements of this facial are exactly that: massage, essential oils, and the principles of aromatherapy.

So, lets get specific -this is the protocol and it is AMAZING

Plaisir des Sens facials begin with a HALF-HOUR  BACK MASSAGE utilizing hot chakra-balancing stones.

Clients then receive a complete cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturizing facial a la Yonka le Grand Classique, a deep pore facial (WITH EXTRACTION CLEANSING).

This is followed by WARM STONES chosen to improve the skin's condition. Volcanic stone is used to oxygenate the skin, while cool aqua jade pebbles are rubbed over puffy eyes to reduce swelling.

SEVEN different semiprecious gems are placed on facial tender points, which help to rebalance the energies of the body and leave a complexion that is fresh, dewy and radiant.

This facial was inspired by Yoga tradition, and as a fitness facial it works to re-balance the 7 core points of the body for enhanced energy flow.

*Captivating aromas through Sensory Therapy

*Superb energy through Chakra Therapy           

*Healing colors through Color Gem Therapy

*Yang massage through Volcanic Stone Therapy

*Contour firming through Aqua Pebble Therapy.

PLAISIR DES SENS is a 90 MINUTE facial, a total body experience complete with the sensation of inner beauty, the essence of skin illumination. It is hard to say which is more amazing in Plaisir des Sens, the way it sounds or the way it feels. Come in and treate yourself.

Don't forget to ask for a paraffin treatment for your feet while you luxuriate.


FACIAL MASSAGE

I know, you are thinking, that facials come with massage, and it is true, our aestheticians are trained and skilled at those wonderful moves that make a facial such a pleasure- the flicks, the thrumming, the circling and the light pressure at just the right moment and in just the right place. 


But we are talking about a more focused and intense facial massage here and you can have it as an added service when you come in for your Grand Classique or any other facial on our menu.

One of the great benefits of facial massage is that it helps to increase the flow of blood, pumping through the areas of your face and whisking away impurities, thereby improving circulation and detoxification.


The creams a lotions we use at Ananas Spa are based on essential oils to help  you to relax and to aid in decongestion. This is a perfect treatment for Winter cold weather. A gentle effleurage (gliding) movement is most often used to perform facial massage and you will find it stimulating as well as gentle. The pressure strokes move upwards to give your facial muscles a lift; your mind quiets; your relaxation is assured.


Our faces help us communicate in showing emotions, help us to eat, and help us to talk. Facial massage will refresh, calm, ease and make more supple those muscles that do so much work for us all day long. They deserve it!


Don't forget to book the additional half hour Facial Massage when you book your regular skin care service.


NEW! GLYCOLIC PEEL

VITAMIN A BOOSTER FACIAL TREATMENT

This is the time of year! Summer is behind us (they haven't resort into the stores yet), so we have a few months ahead when we can really get serious about our skin. Micro dermabrasion is one of the treatments we offer for the off-season when there is not much sun, but we have a new addition to this type of skincare and it is a real boost a Glycolic PEEL vitamin A boost. Here's what it does: it tightens, making the skin look younger and more glowing and distinctly clearer.

We suggest that you alternate weeks with the three possibilities although your aesthetician will confer with you: One week micro, one week Glycolic PEEL vitamin A booster, and one week with both tell you how they are combined below). It will make a lovely difference to the clarity of your skin.

Once you are tucked up on your treatment bed (with a warm pad underneath to fight the chill of these wet cold days and a feather duvet on top to make you snug) your skin will be cleansed with a light lathering product, rinsed and patted dry.

The peel solution is applied in a light buffing motion avoiding the sensitive eye area. It stays on for a few minutes and is removed with a more vigorous buffing motion.

A glycolic acid is applied carefully to the skin avoiding the eyes. FOR SENSITIVE SKIN we substitute a lactic acid. Whichever you need it stays on for a couple of minutes.

Neutralizer is generously applied next to make sure the acids are no longer active. We rinse and pat dry.

IF YOU ARE DOING THE COMBINATION this is when the MICRODERMABRASION is performed. To briefly recap how microdermabrasion works:

First it Corrects: the speed of the crystal flow causes an abrasive action that gently removes the surface layers of the skin allowing smoother, fresher skin to emerge.
At the same time the treatment Stimulates: The vacuum action helps to stimulate microcirculation increasing the blood supply that provides nutrients needed for skin regeneration. It also stimulates formation of new collagen and elastin to improve skin texture and elasticity.

Returning to the Glycolic PEELVitamin A Booster Treatment a thin layer of Retinyl treatment is applied all over the face, avoiding the eyes. This stays on for 5 minutes and is then removed and your skin rinsed until it is clear of product. Sensitive skins will receive a hydra repair mask instead of the Retinyl.

A few drops of VitA clear serum are gently patted on the skin and allowed to dry. If your skin is sensitive you will receive as a substitute the green tea moisturizer, which has the most delicious fragrance.

Finally, AND EXTREMELY IMPORTANTLY you will be using sun block and we will apply it for you, but earnestly request that you use it every day under your moisturizer.

There are some people who should NOT consider this treatment and I will tell you who (although a lot of the reasons are self evident) and these exceptions are in the protocol that comes with the treatment. Believe me, I could never have thought up some of them!

Not if you have used Accutane within one or two years unless your doctor thinks it is OK.
Not on skins that are sensitive to hyper-pigmentation.
Not if you have a cold sore.
Not if you have moderate to severe rosacea.
Not if you are pregnant or lactating.
Not if you are a Nervous Nellie! and are acting strange. (my term, theirs was mildly insulting).
Not if you have an infectious disease.
Not if there are any open sores on your skin.
Not if you are wearing semi-permanent make-up.

NOW, THE PEOPLE WHO DO WANT TO DO THIS are those who have some moderate wrinkles, any scarring, sun damaged skin, enlarged pores, and those of you who want to correct age spots. And for you, this is a MUST. You will love it, it feels tingly during the process and refreshing after, and your skin will really glow, looking tighter and newer. You will be peeling lightly for a few days and when your face is wet it will tingle again. This is all part of the PEEL process. And remember, it is a series of treatments, and you can only really do it during the months when you are not in the sun, so NOW is the perfect time for THE GLYCOLIC PEEL VITAMIN A BOOSTER TREATMENT at ANANAS SPA.


FACE and FEET

Somehow the summer sun seems to make our complexions look coarser, so this is the perfect time for our Yonka Alpha-Vital Resurfacing AHA-BHA Facial.


Alpha-Vital not only smoothes your skin, but it is one of our anti-aging facials. It stands to reason that dead skin cells that hang on too long to the skins surface contribute to the signs of premature aging. Alpha-Vital's purpose is to get rid of tired, dull skin and show off your skin


The exquisite ingredients responsible for Alpha-Vitalefficacy are all organically sourced AHAs and BHAs from fresh fruits, plants and trees.

The exquisite key steps to this facial are:

A warm aromatic compress

Soothing 5 essential oils pulverization

Plant-based hydro-peel

Acidifying oil-free essences compress

Rapid exfoliation fruit acid gel

Relaxing massage with serum ampule and AHA lotion


The exquisite key products that are part of Alpha-Vital, and which you will want to have at home are:

Daytime new skin phyto fruit moisturizer      ALPHA CONTOUR  An eye anti-wrinkle gel

ALPHA EXFOLIATEUR - A night-time intensive skin-renewal preparation.



THE ANANAS OXYGEN/SERUM ANTI-AGING, ENERGIZING FACIAL

If you want to try something really super come in and have the Ananas Oxygen/Serum Anti-aging, Energizing Facial to really jump-start your complexion after all the dehydration the sun may have caused.

I agreed to be the model (it's tough, but someone has to do it!) for the photos you see here (Renata was the photographer and Marina the aesthetician) which will just give you a clue as to how the oxygen is applied...and it was SO good. I had access to a mirror so I could see the lines diminishing as the serum and oxygen were delivered with the airbrush gun. This is called the nebulization mode. It feels super, and it really makes your skin look phenomenal. When oxygen is delivered to your skin this way it works to restabilize and invigorate your skin; can reduce acne and eczema; and has a calming, healing, antiseptic effect. It also gives you high-level protection against free radicals.



           
                                                                           



The facial starts with cleansing, then a gommage (a soft peel), followed by a micro peel ampule to really refresh your skin before the oxygen and serum are laid on. The gommage is removed with a pair of small brushes that are stroked upwards.  Your aesthetician will give you a facial muscle stimulation (a cream application) with light massage.This is a very specific massage using only upward strokes, to help lift in the anti-aging process. Then came the nebulization oxygen-serum application I mentioned above.

After the serum application one of our lifting and anti-aging masks will be painted onto your face with a lovely soft brush. Our aestetician will select the right mask for your slin from our mask  I had the cucumber, which you can see is really green!  It feels so cooling and soothing. The mask sets (you can actually see your features in the inside after it is lifted off) and during the setting the oxygen is applied again, this time in the facial mode which is through the use of a clear plastic mask with the oxygen lead. Oxygen delivered this way helps stimulate the metabolic functions and improves blood circulation and the radiance of your skin.

There are more light upward strokes while your face is treated with Optimizer serum and moisturizer. My skin felt plumped up, moist, fresh and it LOOKED it, too.

Do give this wonderful facial a try while is it our monthly special. Just so you know, there are no extractions in this treatment - just pure luxury.

Need a quick plump? The Oxygen Treatment is a half an hour and consists of the cleansing, serum with oxygen, mask with oxygen, serum and moisturizer as described above - it's the short version.



Hydralessence


HYDRALESSENCE it's a new facial from Yon ka Paris, and we want to tell you about it. This indulgent, deeply penetrating moisture surge facial will revive the most dehydrated of complexions. A palette of vitaminized creams applied with warm healing massaging hands gently cleanses, firms, and smoothes. Luxuriate in a duette of superb Yon ka masks. The first, a refreshing thirst quenching gel mask reduces signs of wrinkles and fatigue. The second, a rich hydrating fruit mask is redolent with the fragrance of nectars from the gardens of Provence.

The HYDRALESSENCE FACIAL results in a soft, polished, supple finish.
Just superb!

Sothys Beauty Garden Organic Treatment

There is an important ethos behind the development of the new SOTHYS BEAUTY GARDEN ORGANIC PROFESSIONAL TREATMENT...a 4 step procedure to help you create your own link with nature.

Perhaps it is best to know what the founder, Bernard Mas, feels about the extraordinary beauty of his region in France on the edge of the Gorges de Dordogne, which inspires him to create Organic beauty products.

"Let me make a confession: for many years I devoted all my energy to the development of Sothys 'the signature of excellence in professional skin care' in Tokyo, New York or Singapore. However, my thoughts were never far from Auriac, with it's rich, green garden deep in the heart of the Correze. It is a magical place, away from the madness of this century and always gives me a sense of peace.

It is not easy to reach this place, far from everything. Up in the incredible plateau of Waintrie one can feel the power of nature wholly preserved. This isolation has created a wilderness of outstanding biodiversity and by a lake I created a Botanic arboretum "Les Jardins de Sothys" which is an exceptional site full of discoveries and reveries open to all.

But to go furher, for those who want to feel the incredible benefits of nature at home, I wanted to launch a new line of natural cosmetics: BEAUTY GARDEN BY SOTHYS."

BEAUTY GARDEN BY SOTHYS is a 4 step professional facial that ANANAS SPA is proud to present to our clients this summer. We have wanted to add an organic line to our excellence skin care program and feel that BEAUTY GARDEN is perfect for us and our discerning and "green" thinking client. The products are also available in our boutique for home care to support the professional facial.

M. Mas has harvested wonderful ingredients for these four steps:

Make-up removing fluid with cherry bud: a fluid and light emulsion to cleanse the skin and leave it supple and clean with an exquisite feeling of freshness. The aesthetician then applies floral water with angelica and hawthorn to finalize make-up removal.

Helianthus and walnut shells exfoliant: this exfoliant gently eliminates dead cells to reveal a radiant complexion. The fresh scent combines notes of green leaf, peach, rose, geranium, cedar and sage. A relaxing modelling massage of the face and neck follows with the organic helianthus oil.

Comfort mask with helianthus and rosemary: a mask suitable for all skin types it provides instant softness and a radiant complexion. An even layer is applied to the face, eye zone and neck and remains on the skin for 10 to 15 minutes when it is removed and followed with floral water with angelica and hawthorn.

Face care with helianthus and rosemary: the final step in the BEAUTY GARDEN by SOTHYS facial, this gentle cream provides softness and radiance, protects the skin and helps to delay the onset of the fist signs of ageing and leaves the skin glowing with vitality. It is stroked lightly on the face and neck and should be applied morning and evening.

When scientific knowledge and true passion meet, a product results which is intrinsically honest. Siimplicity and love for the real is BEAUTY GARDEN BY SOTHYS at ANANAS SPA.

ENDERMOLOGIE AND LIPOMASSAGE


Ananas Spa would like to remind you that bathing suit weather is just weeks away... Are you ready? We can help you prepare with a scientifically proven system of endermologie and lipomassage. Both were created by the French who know a thing or two about bodies, and are not only efficacious but beneficial.

What you are required to do is hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. You should increase the number of glasses of water you drink to at least 8, 10 is even better. AND come to Ananas Spa and sign up for a series of 12 sessions (some peope require more, some less) with our expert aestheticians who will help minimize the appearance of those orange-peelly bumps on your tummy, hips and thighs.




Endermologie is the overall treatment for your body, lipomassage targets problem areas that you want to tackle. Both will make you look and feel your best.

These forms of massage are performed while you wear a specially designed opaque white bodysuit for ease of movement with our state of the art machine. The massage does so much to improve circulation that professional athletes frequently use it to speed healing after an injury. You will find that the relaxing rhythm of the rollers invigorates you as no traditional massage can.


OPTIMIZE what you have


Ananas Spas Yonka Paris Optimizer Facial answers the three essential needs of our winter weary skin:

It is anti-aging, anti-wrinkle and lift-effective.

The treatment is specific; the process is indulgent: First relax with the aromatic steam compress; next a plant base soft gel peel is applied with brushes. The ingredients provide aromatic stimulation and a micro peeling exfoliation. An anti-wrinkle firming treatment is applied exactly where needed, followed by a relaxing and healing massage of face, neck and decollete. A double lift effect mask is applied to face and neck while lips receive a nourishing lip mask. Finally, the primed skin is protected with a restructuring base. It is a facial treatment that everyone needs.

And to support the advances made with your aesthetician, you can purchase the Optimizer cream and Optimizer fluid. Used daily after cleansing and toning, morning and night, these products help to lift the facial contours, diminish the appearance of fatigue and wrinkles and provide the skin with resiliency. Your skin looks brighter and more radiant. This cream and fluid are an impressive treatment for pre and post menopausal skin. Spread evenly, giving special care to the wrinkles. The cream or fluid can be used individually or mixed together for exponential results.

For those interested in the how to, the psychobiological ingredients delivering these benefits are horsetail (rich in silicium,) wild rose, collagen, hyaluronic acid and glycosaminoglycans. OPTIMIZE what you have.
