Manicures, pedicures, massage. . . who doesn’t love a visit to the spa?

The newest addition to Georgia Street is Deserving Thyme Lifespa, whose doors opened just last week.

Deserving Thyme, as you may already know, is a local label whose much-loved botanical bath and body line has been a hit across North America. So what better thing to do than open their own nature-inspired spa?

You downtown men and women can sneak off on your lunch break for any number of traditional spa services, or – wink wink – you might want to check out their clinical non-invasive anti-aging procedures. . . especially after all that summer sun.

Unique to Lifespa is the "Beyond Botox" facial. First off, no needles, which makes us very happy. In fact, we hear it’s kinda like microdermabrasion, but without the crystals, which can be aggravating to the skin.

45 minutes later, looking younger and fresher, you’re back at work, collecting compliments. Shhhhhh, it’s our little secret.
