Never, oh, never have I been so excited! I am obsessed with Creative Nail Design’s Shellac Manicure.  It is the best thing since sliced bread – no, really it is.  What makes it so great you ask?  Ummmm how about a manicure that is as shiny and chip free on Day One as it is on Day Fourteen?  Shellac is a gel nail polish that doesn’t chip or dull for TWO WEEKS.  For someone who has their hands in water or typing all day (AKA everyone I know) polish is such disappointment sometimes!  Come in and try Shellac for that wedding, holiday party or just to treat yourself!

As you know we have some of the most highly trained therapists in the area.  Did you know that our therapists continue to expand their knowledge by taking additional classes above and beyond what is needed for their state licenses?  It is because of that continued commitment to education that some of our prices have changed. Some are a little higher to reflect that additional training and the higher cost associated with some of our supplies.

We are always receptive to client feedback and try to accommodate where we can!  In response to some feedback we have received over the last couple of months we have decided to adjust our open hours.  Starting October 10th our new hours will be:

Monday 10-6

Tuesday 9-7

Wednesday 9-7

Thursday 9-6

Friday 9-6

Saturday 9-5

Naturally speaking, is there anything more taxing on the body than pregnancy and childbirth? Probably not—the process packs a pretty hefty physical and emotional punch. “I compare pregnancy and childbirth to running a marathon,” says Christy Schachte, licensed massage therapist and owner of Mt. Pleasant-based MoM Spa.

“You’ve built the body up for nine or 10 months, then it’s tested with a pretty traumatic event—you can’t just get up the next day and go back to business as usual. You have to take care of it afterwards, help the muscles mend.”

Roper St. Francis Mount Pleasant Hospital has recently partnered with Schachte and her team to treat new moms to a free, 30-minute post-partum massage in the days after delivering at Mount Pleasant Hospital. “The goal is to get the body back in balance as quickly as possible,” Schachte notes.

“The really beneficial thing about massage is that it provides instant physical relief. This is critical for women whose low backs tend to be sore, or who are suffering from sciatica or swelling in the hands and feet.”

Though there are any number of varieties of massage, Schachte treats Mount Pleasant Hospital moms to a medium/medium-deep tissue massage accompanied by hot basalt river stones placed on the back, neck, and shoulders, then onto the hands and feet. This helps relax the body, lower blood pressure, loosen trigger points, work out the lactic acid, and even stabilize emotions.

“I like to see post-partum moms three to 10 days after childbirth. This is when hormones tend to crash and it’s important for these moms to get out of the house, focus on their bodies, and get well.”

“We have to take care of the mother first,” adds Schachte. “The sooner her body and mind are back in balance, the sooner she can take care of her baby. And a healthy family is the goal.”
