Get A Massage, Fight Cancer

This October the Biltmore Spa goes pink! In observance of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Biltmore Spa is donating proceeds from a selection of spa treatments to Susan G. Komen for the Cure Miami/Ft. Lauderdale in support of their vision of a world without breast cancer.

From October 1 to 31, the Biltmore Spa will donate $10 for every 70-minute massage, facial and wrap treatment booked.Guests may choose from more than 15 spa treatments, including some of my favorites:

• Signature Chardonnay Massage – Aimed at increasing circulation and reducing tension, this customized massage fights aging of the skin through the use of Chardonnay grape seed, one of the most powerful anti-oxidants found in nature.
• Age Defyer Facial – Designed to strengthen and smooth the collagen structure, this treatment features an enzyme exfoliation for face and hands, a pressure point and sculpting massage, a collagen masque and a firming thermo modelage masque. The facial includes a Glacier Crystals eye treatment that reduces fine lines and dark circles.
• Revitalizing Wrap – Treatment consists of a snow flake salt exfoliation and an intensively moisturizing envelopment with the Babor Lifting Body Cream aimed at firming and toning the skin. Combining the detoxifying effect of zeolite and the firming effect of elsberries, this wrap also uses an active ingredient called Kigelia Africana, which improves skin texture and elasticity.
