Make the Difference at Purely You Spa

by Lisa Marlene

In 2009, Jennifer Alvarez Linguidi opened Purely You Spa, a certified organic functional health spa, in Naples. With the health and wellness of spa members, guests and staff always in mind, she has been on a constant search for products, technologies and modalities to offer spa members for the best result-oriented outcomes with anti-aging skincare, meditation, functional medicine coaching, body treatments and massage therapy. Purely You Spa is offering a new Biohacking Membership, unique to Southwest Florida. Individuals that want to reduce aging and inflammation can attend an upcoming launch event.

Updating spa services is a constant labor of love for Alvarez Linguidi, an innovative entrepreneur. Since opening, she has worked in and out of the spa for her clients’ benefit, training and learning at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, which earned her accreditation as an integrative nutrition health coach. She also has a full specialty license in skincare. Other training includes intense pulsed light therapy, microdermabrasion theory and technique, dermaplaning, and Eminence Organic advanced results-driven organic skincare.

She also has proficiency in Egyptian reflexology, Indian head treatment, Hungarian facelift massage, bamboo fusion and manual facial lymph drainage. Plus, she was personally educated in several resurfacing technologies such as the HydraFacial machine, dermal infusion and microneedling.

She also is a licensed massage therapist and studied functional medicine at The American Academy of Functional Health and says, “It brings me great joy to be able to provide the highest level of service, value and quality to assist others in achieving their wellness, stress relief and beauty goals. The education and training have been truly transformational.” The second spa location in North Naples opened in 2021.

The list of modalities doesn’t include other technologies she been trained to operate in order to offer them in specific sessions. Items such as BEMER Mat therapy, an U.S. Food and Drug Administration Class II-cleared consumer medical device that improves blood flow and stimulates healthy muscles to improve and facilitate performance, are offered by the team.

Chromotherapy is the science of using colors to adjust bodily vibrations to frequencies that result in health and harmony. Each color possesses frequencies of a specific vibration, and each vibration is related to different physical symptoms. Chromotherapy works on energy points to help the body reestablish its natural balance.

The chakra balance mat is an infrared therapy treatment with amethyst crystals and other natural gemstones that promotes circulation and reduces anxiety and stress. Customized LED light therapy has three applications: it kills bacteria, helps oxygenate the skin and helps calm inflammation under the skin. It is also good for rosacea, anti-aging, firming the skin and stimulating collagen to help even skin tone, and pain relief.

Targeted vibration therapy has a variety of vibration release techniques that treat large muscle groups. Percussion, Theragun and Hypervolt are deep muscle stimulator tools used for muscle recovery or muscle facilitation. The infrared sauna promotes heart health, muscle recovery, better skin, improved immunity, hormone regulation and lean muscle preservation, pain relief and increased stress resilience.

“The Cold Plunge, the latest modality, benefits the immune system, increases blood flow, reduces chronic pain, boosts metabolism and promotes better sleep. It also boosts energy and elevates mood, lowers inflammation, reduces muscle soreness and boosts performance,” says Alvarez Linguidi, who experienced the Cold Plunge and knew she had to bring the biohacking experience to Southwest Florida.
