Zen Moment
There is more to life than increasing its speed.

-- Gandhi

Protect Your Skin
We all know the sun's rays are dangerous - but, did you know the chemicals in your sunscreen may be exposing you to health hazards as well? While a wide brim hat, sunglasses, and sun-protective clothing are the best line of defense against sun damage, a non-toxic sunscreen can help fill the gap.

The Food and Drug Administration is investigating several new sunscreen compounds believed to be linked to accelerated skin damage, hormone-disruption, and excess absorption into the skin and blood stream. Steer clear from these offenders and opt for a sunscreen that uses the minerals zinc or titanium to protect you from both UVA and UVB rays.

In addition to healthy ingredients, your choice of sunscreen should be something you're comfortable using. If it's greasy or has an offensive smell, you won't be likely to use it. Choosing a sunscreen that fits your skin type and your lifestyle will ensure that you're covered from head to toe. ZenSpa offers gentle yet effective sun protection including organic formulas, hydrating cremes and oil-free gels.

Peppermint Detox Series
As the weather heats up our bodies can start to harbor excess toxins resulting in water retention and a general sluggish feeling. Our Peppermint Detox Series is a perfect cure for the summer slump. This cooling, detoxifying treatment restores mind and body. Begin with an organic Peppermint and Eucalyptus aromatherapy foot soak that will relax and calm the mind. Next, accelerate the elimination of toxins with our Peppermint Seaweed Wrap complete with scalp treatment, facial massage, and foot reflexology. Performed once a week for six weeks, this series will leave you refreshed, cleansed, and hydrated!

Summer Harmony Facial - $120
Summer is here and the sun is getting stronger - UV rays can cause hyper-pigmentation and wrinkles while the heat quickly strips away much needed water from skin. Our Summer Harmony Organic Facial is a gentle, yet effective treatment that uses medical grade organic products to awaken and renew the skin. This treatment helps to replenish lost moisture while offering gentle exfoliation. Schedule this treatment during the months of July and August to receive a customized organic skin care trial kit from Image! This kit includes a cleanser, serum, moisturizer, masque and spf - perfect for upcoming vacations.
