Wanda is a graduate of the National Academy of Massage Therapy and Healing Sciences and has completed both Cancer Massage programs offered at Sloane Kettering in New York. She also happens to be our resident expert in Reflexology as she is a certified reflexologist!

Wanda’s favorite services to perform are reflexology, “because you can address many issues and still keep the customer relaxed.” And our 90 minute massages “because you can lots done and still have the time for the relaxation aspects.”

We are so pleased to offer this event so be sure to RSVP today!

Wanda enjoys working at The Body Serene for many reasons but there is one that stands out for her. When she was diagnosed with MS a few years ago all of her teammates were supportive and determined to help her get back to doing what she loves.

Questions & ANSWERS WITH JENNIFER LACONIS, THE BODY SERENE DAY SPA We thought we would answer some of the most commonly asked questions for our Estheticians!

Q: Do you provide products and services suitable for all skin types/conditions?

A: O ur product line (Specifically Glymed and A Natural Difference) enable us to provide skin treatments and home care on most including rosacea, acne anti-aging and even the most sensitive. And yes! We offer facials for men!

Q: What is Microdermabrasion and what does it do?

A: Microdermabrasion provides a mechanical exfoliation with light suction. It is performed with a Microdermabrasion machine that utilizes a textured tip to slough off dry, dead skin. This service provides improved texture, increases cell renewal and collagen growth for those suffering fine lines, scarring and large pores.

Q: I’m concerned about the effects of products that I put on my face regularly. I’m fearful of parabens and other additives that I’ve read are harmful. What are your thoughts?

A: W e pride ourselves on offering product lines which are free from harmful preservatives and additives. (i.e. dyes, lanolin and parabens) This includes the lines used in the treatment rooms as well as home care.

Q: Why is Jane Iredale Makeup more expensive than the drugstore brands?

A: T he minerals used in Jane Iredale products are pharmaceutical grade, certified organic and at the top of the ingredient list, not the bottom. There are no fillers (talc, nylon, cornstarch or colors in any of their products. We believe there is no better cosmetic line available anywhere!

If you have a question about your skin or homecare, please set up an appointment with any of our licensed estheticians for a complimentary consultation or any of our amazingly effective skin care treatments!
