• National Spa Week is Back with Incredible Spa Savings!

  Spa Week Provides Affordable, Lifelong Wellness for Body and Mind
  National Event’s $50 spa and wellness services aid in overall health and well-being now and in the future

    In a fast paced society where deadlines, demands and frustrations seem to be the norm, stress has become so commonplace that it is practically a way of life for so many people. Unfortunately, this constant strain on body and mind can lead to serious health consequences. Study after study shows that there is a strong link between stress and overall health, and it’s no wonder that by 2020, the top five diseases will all share a contributing factor of stress according to the World Health Organization.

  In 2004, Spa Week recognized the epidemic of stress-related health issues and set out to change the dangerous course the country had charted. The first step was making it possible for everyone to experience the healing benefits of spa and wellness services, thus the biannual Spa Week Events and their affordable $50 treatments were created. Since then, Spa Week has implemented many other groundbreaking programs devoted to educating consumers about the preventative and life-long wellness benefits of spa visits.

  Moving into its 17th installation, Spa Week’s Fall 2012 Event will take place from October 15th – 21st when hundreds of spas (day, medical and resort), yoga and Pilates studios, fitness and nutrition centers, and other health and wellness practices nationwide will offer up to three signature treatments at the major discount of just $50 each. Spas and wellness facilities have become invested in improving overall health and well-being for consumers, rather than serving as only a brief escape from their hectic lifestyle. In alignment with this commitment to enrich consumer’s lives, the Fall 2012 Event will offer a wide variety of services that address the most vital health concerns including stress and pain management, weight loss and maintenance, mind-body balance and total fitness.

  Such services will incorporate holistic and alternative therapies such as traditional, ancient medicine like acupuncture and cupping to Ayurveda, one of the most popular healing therapies today. In addition to these nurturing treatments for body and mind, consumers can also expect to see serious technology and innovation on the Spa Week menu. From colon hydrotherapy and non-invasive body contouring to stimulate weight loss, to advanced laser facials that go above and beyond tackling basic skincare concerns by helping to prevent and even treat skin cancer. The wellness possibilities are endless, and when it comes to personal health, Spa Week is a sure reason for consumers to make that once out of reach “me” time an affordable reality.

  In order to receive exclusive information on spa and wellness locations and their $50 services, spa-goers should register on SpaWeek.com as early as possible. The complete directory will launch five weeks early, on September 10th, to allow consumers to begin booking their most desired services. It is recommended that spa-goers sign up and book in advance on SpaWeek.com to ensure they reserve their top treatment choices.

  Spa visits improve overall health in many ways, from the physical to psychological, but perhaps the most important is that they provide the tools for long-term prevention. Investing in personal health and well-being now decreases the chance of battling stress-related illness in the future. As more consumers turn to spas and wellness facilities to aid in their physical and mental health goals, Spa Week is there and will continue in its tradition of assisting millions in their journey of living a life of greater health, happiness and well-being.

  Spa Week was created and founded by Cheryl Reid, who hails from successful careers within the luxury spa industry and publishing spheres. Joining Spa Week for the Fall 2012 Event, sponsors include Exclusive National Media Sponsor: Health magazine; Exclusive Destination Sponsor: Palm Springs Bureau of Tourism; Exclusive Trade Association Partner: ISPA; Exclusive Skincare Sponsor: American Laser Skincare; Exclusive Hair Care Sponsor: Ouidad and Exclusive Water Sponsor: Dream Water. Co-sponsors include CEW and Spa Chicks On The Go®. Spa Week donates a portion of the proceeds from the Spring and Fall Events to CancerAndCareers.org.

  Honoring Dr. Juan Carlos Castilla, one of the region’s truly great leaders in conservation and Dr. Steven E. Sanderson, President and CEO of the Wildlife Conservation Society.

   World-renowned Event Designer and best-selling author Preston Bailey.

   

                            Gala 2012: The Coasts of Patagonia is a celebration of WCS’s commitment to conserving the globally significant natural wealth along the coasts of Chile and Argentina.  The evening will capture the pristine beauty of this area, while raising awareness and building support to ensure its future.  The gala will highlight WCS’s decades-long commitment to the Patagonian coastline through the establishment of the Karukinka reserve, ecotourism work in Tierra del Fuego, and the WCS Sea and Sky project.  The evening’s honoree is longstanding friend of WCS, Dr. Juan Carlos Castilla, one of the region’s leaders in conservation.  WCS is also pleased to honor President and CEO Dr. Steven E. Sanderson, who will retire in July 2012. Dr. Sanderson’s tenure at WCS helped conservation efforts grow and expand into more than 65 nations.

   

  The Central Park Zoo, located at 64th Street and Fifth Avenue, brings WCS’s global conservation work to life through innovative exhibits such as the Allison Maher Stern Snow Leopard and Tropic Zone Rainforest exhibits.

   

  The Wildlife Conservation Society saves wildlife and wild places worldwide.  We do so through science, global conservation, education and the management of the world's largest system of urban wildlife parks, led by the flagship Bronx Zoo.  Together these activities change attitudes towards nature and help people imagine wildlife and humans living in harmony.  WCS is committed to this mission because it is essential to the integrity of life on Earth.
