This past Friday wrapped up the 2011 Summer Spaaah Series, where spas all across the Valley offer amazing deals and opportunities to experience what each spa has to offer—all for a good cause.

I attended the events final Summer Spaaah Series event of the season at the Willow Stream Spa, located at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess Resort. As I stepped into the spa, which embraces the natural beauty of the desert, I was greeted by the professional staff and was immediately handed a gift tote full of spa goodies and a spa certificate that can be used toward a facial, a massage, or a pedicuregoodies.

It was well attended by 183 participants, all eager to be pampered. My first stop was the light dinner buffet, served in the hallway. After that, I attended the meditation-on-the-go seminar, which was hosted by Barbara Sumner in the beautiful fitness studio. After twenty 20 minutes of relaxation, I made an appointment for a makeup consultation with makeup artist Monique, who gave me a beautiful makeover.

I then attended the 20-minute Star Crossed Lovers astrology seminar, where astrologist Catherine Baskett explained to the room full of women how important your time of birth is to developing your personality.

Following the seminar, I attended my chair massage appointment and spent 10 minutes in bliss. Hand and foot massages were also offered.

After the massage, I explored the multi-level spa and found myself at the rooftop spa pool. Lining the edge were fabulous cabanas, and I entered the Cabana Package Giveaway for a chance to win another day at the spa.

An added bonus with the Summer Spaaah Series is that a percentage of the proceeds from the event is donated to the Fresh Start Women’s Foundation. To get the details on next year’s must-attend events, visit www.summerspaaz.com.
