Spa spoils for the girls this August!

Ever thought of planning a little something special for some “girl time”– whether it’s with your best friend,  sister, mother or daughter, well the best month to plan any women related event is August – especially since it’s the month dedicated to the celebration of women.

“Ask any woman and she will tell you that a spa day is one of the best gifts to receive. Feeling pampered and specifically receiving a massage, lowers stress hormones such as cortisol and increases endorphins. Endorphins are the body’s natural feel good chemicals, and when they are released, your mood is naturally enhanced,” says Yolandi Potgieter from the Granny Mouse Spa.

Another factor to consider is that a spa is an amazing location to gain some much needed one on one time with the closest girl in your life, as you cannot move once your feet are being treated to a pedi or hands, or when receiving any treatment that is!

For your sisters – whether biological or not – the standard treatments are always an option, but when it comes to moms with slightly younger teenage daughters, a fun hand or foot massage, or mani & pedi can enhance your quality time, and is suitable for a variety of ages.

Granny Mouse Spa host a range of professional treatments that are sure to provide the quality time you are in need of.

The Hand or Foot Massage treatment which runs for 30 minutes at a cost of R 275, is sure to relax both you and your daughter, and allow you time to communicate and laugh – which is said to be the best medicine.

Another great option is the Express Manicure/Pedicure, which includes filing, shaping of the nails, cuticle care and varnishing. However, the most popular treatments for any mom and daughter is the gel application for both hands and feet which cost R155 per person per 40 minute treatment and is so worth it, especially when it comes to showing them off to your social media followers.

For gel application, Granny Mouse Spa uses IBD, also known as International Beauty Design, which has been a leader in the Nail Care industry, dominating the market with world-class technology and unmatched innovation. As a trusted go-to for top nail professionals worldwide, IBD has developed iconic formulas, such as their Hard Gel segment, which has become a top seller and must-have amongst the best nail technicians in the industry.

Spa guests also have the opportunity to choose for a variety of colours including that of IBD’s latest collection, Aurora Nights – a magnetic gel polish.

So get the girls together, book your spa day and enjoy some much needed quality time to feel fresh for the rest of the year!
