Jade Stone Massage becomes #1 Massage in LA's Le Petite Retreat day spa!

May 4th, 2007 Los Angeles, CA - at LA's top independent day spa (Le Petite Retreat day spa), Jade Stone Massage is now the most requested stress-reducing massage treatment, surpassing the ever-common deep tissue or Swedish massage! This is BIG news because in just over 3 years, LA's top celebrities & regular spa goers are realizing the health & detoxing benefits from Jade Stone Massage over any basic massage treatment!

"Couples are doing it, singles are doing it, men, women, even teens love JSM (Jade Stone Massage)" says Lysa Kustek, owner of LA's most popular independent day spa, Le Petite Retreat day spa. "Simply put, deep tissue or Swedish massage is passe, old-school, yesterday's news, and not very special. When you only have an hour or two and you want the best, healthiest benefit from your spa experience, a 60 (or better yet, 90 minute) Jade Stone Massage will be the only massage worth getting in the future" emphasizes Lysa.

Lysa explains: "Getting a Jade Stone Massage actually produces aerobic benefits for your heart, without having to do a workout at the gym - and everybody loves getting 'something for nothing'! You see, both warm and cool Jade stones are physically massaged into your muscles, using both deep tissue and Swedish massage strokes. Massaging with heated warm stones helps loosen the stressed muscle, and the coolness from the cold jade stones increase the muscle's blood flow and your body's heart rate, thus helping flush & detoxing your body! Most people don't know that 1 warm stone massage stroke is approximately equal to 8 regular 'hands only' strokes that are used to increase the body's heat level -- which is just one of the reasons people are so amazingly relaxed by our Jade Stone massage treatment (even though they don't know the physiological reasons)."

Le Petite Retreat day spa is one of the few spas in Los Angeles that offers spa facials and therapeutic spa massage as same-room couple's treatments, making them a great choice for unique spa gifts, special events, spa gift certificates, and just in time for Mother's Day. "Our theme is, 'Feel The Experience' and that's exactly what we endeavor to do - have each guest remember forever their great spa facial, spa massage and now our spa eyelash extension experience," Lysa says proudly.

February 8th, 2007 Los Angeles, CA - Los Angeles, California, February 8, 2007 – Le Petite Retreat day spa has gone once again where other day spas fear to tread – to the top of the luxury day spa gift market.

“Over the years we’ve been asked by many of our regular and "A-List" clients to come up with a luxury spa gift that can’t be found anywhere else,” said Lysa Kustek, spa owner. “In response to those requests we’ve answered with some truly unique packages that our spa clientele is really responding to. The packages were designed to give the most exceptional day spa experience for the Valentine’s Day.”

The most popular luxury package includes a combination of deluxe spa treatments and gifts including: a Jade Stone massage, RegenisCell Enzyme Facial, an Ionic detoxing foot treatment, an Aqua Latte & Floral Medley Bath, an exclusive Le Petite Retreat spa robe, an array of RegenisCell specialty skin care products, and to top it all off - Dom Perignon Champagne and Beluga caviar. Packages are available for both individuals and couples and are $1,400 for a single, and $2,400 for a couple).

“We started thinking about these packages months ago and immediately went to the Internet to see if there was anything remotely comparable online,” said Lysa Kustek. “After days of searching, we could not find anything remotely close so we thought – why not put together the most decadent day spa packages online…so we did.”

The spa is especially proud of what they are calling the “Ultimate Valentine’s Home Spa Gift Basket.” This package includes a Le Petite Retreat day spa robe, Pali Hawaiian sandals, aromatherapy neck wrap, Le Petite Retreat Green Tea aromatherapy soy spa candle, Tea Forte Silken Tea Infuser 2-pack, Jim Brickman 'Escape' CD, Aromatherapy eye pillow, Tingler copper body massager, Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt Gift Card, RegenisCell Therapeutic Skin Care Collection and a ColorScience Natural Mineral Make-up Package. This package sells for $978 and includes all taxes, shipping and handling.

While the majority of people shopping at the Le Petite Retreat day spa website are gravitating towards simple gift certificates and spa services, the luxury packages are finding their way into people’s hearts for Valentines Day. “We’re getting great feedback from people all across the US,” said Lysa Kustek, “We’ve already come up with some great ideas for next year that will really turn some heads.”

The best time to do lash extensions is for a Holiday party, or a special occasion event like a wedding or shower, but especially for Christmas parties, or when you want a great night out in Hollywood or Beverly Hills. Eyelash extension treatments make great gifts, for guys and for girls, as we also do many men who want longer, thicker, more attractive eyes. So people should keep in mind a holiday or Christmas spa gift certificate for eyelash extensions may be just what he or she wants" smiled Lysa.
