The holiday season is right in front of us. Are you thinking you want to minimize stress and find easy gift solutions? Ballaura Wellness Spa in Olympia has the antidote for both with a few suggestions to maximize your time, reduce tension and hopefully throw in superlative self-care. With special sales events planned through the Thanksgiving weekend and beyond, you can give and receive spa gifts of massage, infrared sessions and themed gift bundles. Yes, you can feel your shoulders relaxing already.
“Time and money can be limited,” says Nicole Chryst, owner of Ballaura Wellness Spa. She’s a business owner and mom of three young boys. She knows the value of utilizing time as smartly as possible and why self-care is essential.
“People are stressed out,” notes Nicole. It’s from life. We are living in a dramatically shifting world, yet the holidays will come whether we are ready or not. She wants her current clients and future clients to know Ballaura cares. The wellness spa has been thinking about your well-being and has a few thoughts for your gift giving needs.
A Massage in Olympia Makes an Excellent Gift
Gift certificates for a massage don’t need hangers or a place in a cabinet. They won’t collect dust on a shelf or clutter your home. They are calorie-free, will relieve stress and help you feel great. You don’t have to guess the size. You are supporting a local business and the people that work there. To make your life even easier, they have beautiful gift wrap for gift cards purchased in the spa.
A bit of holiday shopping can be fun, for some. Decorated window displays, lights and music can be mood-lifting. However, when there’s no place to park, the crowds get big, the checkout lines get long and you aren’t even finding anything you want, it’s not so fun. You can gift a massage via your electronic device. You can send it to your friend across town or print a gift receipt and stuff it into a stocking. “Go to Gift Cards on the website,” suggests Nicole, “and they can be sent instantly.” It’s a solution for that last minute gift need, too.
For one reason or another, some people have never had a massage. They are apprehensive, shy, or don’t like what they don’t know. Ballaura has a cadre of experienced massage therapists and are happy to match clients with the person who best suits their needs. A gift card might just get your friend or loved one the tiny push they need to get on the table. It’s easier to test the waters when encouraged or when it’s free to you!
Personally, I would never let a gifted massage go unused! But, if your friend whom you treated is resistant, they can always pass the certificate along to another. This is a regifting that another could find thrilling. Someone else might have wanted to try a different massage modality but been hesitant to proceed. A gift massage at Ballaura would work perfectly.
