I hope everyone enjoys this much deserved 3-day weekend!  I actually had no idea that July 4th was on a Monday this year...until I  turned some pages of my appt. book. Then I got really excited!!!!!  I think we all need some R&R and time to just have a little fun.  

I passed the second half of my aromatherapy course studies and am now awaiting my final exam grade.  I will be notified via email (I think).While I am waiting for my final grades, I decided I can offer something fun for everyone to come do.  I can make a personal Dosha Blend of essential oils for you.  There is a very quick 3 page questionnaire to fill out and then you get to play with the oils and participate in choosing which ones you want.  It is a lot of fun to do.  It takes approx. a half hour and you get a whole 5ml bottle of your custom therapeutic blend!  I will not charge for the half hour for this promotional, but there is a fee attached to the oil blend.  And it is entirely dependent upon which oils you choose.  I would prefer that you call to make your appt. to come have this personal Dosha blend session.  I can say that it will be no more than $20.00. This is a perfect introduction for trying essential oils and experiencing how they can be beneficial to your health and well-being. 

Aromatherapy is not limited to massage anymore!  Essential oils can help you with all sorts of ailments. Here's just a few... 

• Headaches
• Sore throats
• Keeping sinuses clear
• Colon health
• Colds/flu
• Pain management
• Emotional balance
• Female issues
• Skin problems
• First aid
• Cooking 
• Everyday health and well-being for the whole family! 

I have two bottles of Liquid Sunshine tan enhancer (spf 15) by Arbonne.  For those that are sun seekers/worshipers...this product is used a half hour before sun exposure and it does have sunburn protection.  $28.00/bottle.

My supply of RE9 Advanced skin care products from Arbonne is in stock again. For those that do not know about Arbonne, here's a short intro:

It's time to outgrow aging.  RE9 Advanced synergizes not one, but 9 major age-defying elements and botanicals in a powerful system of products clinically proven to start working within 24 hours.

The RE9 Advanced breakthrough approach addresses skin health by pairing targeted topical treatments with an age-defying supplement that accelerates results twice as fast.  Antioxidant vitamin C, contained in the supplement, supports collagen synthesis and helps restore skin's youthful glow.  Algae extract enhances this activity on the skin's outer layer, dramatically diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.  See for yourself...outgrow aging with RE9 Advanced.

I would be happy to provide a facial demonstration for you by appt. only. There is no cost for this demo and you will be given samples to take home (enough for a week's worth) to use before deciding if you would like to purchase these products.

It has come to my attention that there is a lot of people out there that are unaware that they can use their automobile insurance to pay for needed massage therapy when they become injured in an automobile accident.  I wrote an article for my website that addresses this issue.  It's really easy.  You already are paying the premiums for this coverage, so why not use it when you need it?

In case you missed this last month, I have updated my website page entitled "Beau's Favorite Providers of Other Services" .  Please welcome Clyde and Ramona Clark (Land of the Chinook Adventures), Carole Good-Hanson (Gemini Gypsy), and Leslie Wood (The Oregon Dust Buster). Have fun reading all about what services these good friends offer. ♥♥♥ 

Strabo-kitty got a kitty massage the other night.  I have never seen him so blissed out!  This is also how people look when they get off my massage table after a relaxation massage!  (sorry for not turning it one click clock wise so that it is upright.  I forgot to do that before I uploaded it!) 

My cats are truly beyond pampered.  What can I say?
