A day of replenishing your mind, body and spirit this Saturday can help victims of abuse.
“Replenish Your Body & Soul Day” at the MedSpa Day & Spiritual Salon will benefit abused women and children. The new Fountain of Youth MedSpa in West LA will offer a menu of youth-enhancing spa treatments and classes at a special price for the whole day.
The event will benefit the USC Violence Intervention Program and Rape Crisis Center, a facility that serves women and children who have been witness to, or victims of abuse. The cost for the day spa is $75, a value of up to $200. Reservations Women may choose from two mini-spa treatments such as massage, facial, micro-dermabrasion and energy healing, plus a roster of classes including yoga, Zen meditation and Tantra. A tea tasting will be hosted by Rena Shah of the renowned Chado Tea Rooms in Los Angeles and Pasadena.
The event will take place at the Fountain of Youth MedSpa, 11687 National Boulevard at Barrington, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
“Women and children are all too frequently the victims of violence in Los Angeles and throughout the world,” said Carey Ann Strelecki, who is hosting the event with the Fountain of Youth MedSpa. “When we had the opportunity to create a project that would make a difference to abuse victims while providing a day for women to rejuvenate from their often frantic, exhausting lives, it seemed like a natural.”
