TREAT YOURSELF St. Petersburg Times; Jun 5, 2009
The spa and facial services performed by our students at the Aveda Institute St. Petersburg recently drew rave reviews in the St. Petersburg Times.
Here’s what they had to say:
St. Petersburg
Aveda InstituteThe Aveda Institute in downtown St. Petersburg offers massages and facials at costs lower than most salons and spas. What’s the catch? They’re performed by students. But don’t let that scare you away. They’re supervised by Aveda instructors, and frankly, I’ve had better massages here than in some “real” spas. The 90-minute full body and scalp massage for $65 worked out the kinks in my neck and shoulders from prolonged computer use and stress. If you’re looking for relaxation, Chakra Balancing Massage ($50) is the way to go. Part deep tissue massage, part foot reflexology and part aromatherapy with Aveda’s Chakra fragrances, the session lasts an hour. The Elemental Nature Facial includes an arm-and-hand massage. The one-hour session left my skin soft and invigorated. Series of four hourlong sessions are available ($160-$180).
