Thank you Beth for an amazing pedicure experience. It was so relaxing that I fell asleep. I feel like I started my vacation a day early. I will definitely be back and will recommend your services and vitality spa to my friends.

Quote Beth is a very knowledgeable … I highly, highly recommend her! … KSM

Each and every experience I have had at Vitality has been amazing. I have been seeing Beth since March for my eyebrow/upper lip waxing and for my facials as well. I do not trust any other person with my eyebrows. She has done a fantastic job shaping them. She always takes her time and uses a medical grade anti-bacterial/anti-microbial botanical formula rather than the ol’ sticky wax. It is much better for my skin, there no reaction at all afterwards.

I’ve had two signature facials and fell asleep during both. I was SO relaxed.

Beth is a very knowledgeable and just a wonderful person in general! I highly, highly recommend her!
Thank you Beth!

Quote Beth: The facial was lovely … SQ

The facial was lovely. It had been years since I had had one (kids and work put these type of activities on the back burner). Now I realize that this needs to be as regular as my haircut! I will be calling in the next day or two to book my next appointment.
