Continuum has built a great reputation Founded by John Meyerovich and Joe Galati in 2007, Continuum Pedicure Spas has built a great reputation for innovative design, superior product quality, and excellent customer service.
Since inception, the company has carefully built and tested every pedicure spa at our manufacturing facility in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and has serviced thousands of satisfied customers. Continuum becomes part of Earthlite, LLC Two years ago, Continuum became part of Earthlite, an award-winning manufacturer of spa, salon, and massage equipment based in Vista, California. Founded in 1973 and with operations on three continents, Earthlite is the world’s largest treatment table manufacturer.
Earthlite’s stable of companies include Continuum, Earthlite, Living Earth Crafts, Tara Spa Therapy, and Stronglite. In the past year, Earthlite has moved into a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, with leading edge manufacturing and testing equipment and eco-friendly, zero-effluent processes. Transfer of operations to California Effective July 1, Earthlite has decided to transition Continuum’s manufacturing and operations into its Southern California facility. In addition to world-class manufacturing capabilities, Earthlite’s onsite engineering, marketing, R&D and service departments will help grow and support the future growth of the Continuum pedicure line.
Earthlite manufactures its premium massage tables and LEC pedicure equipment in Vista, CA now and is excited to take on the tradition of building exceptional Continuum Pedicure equipment. What this means for our industry partners First and foremost, we expect no impairment in our lead times, service levels, product quality, or purchasing patterns. Earthlite is committed to building upon Continuum’s great reputation and will continue to rely on its excellent network of suppliers and distributors. In fact, Continuum will be launching the first of several groundbreaking new products in September of this year.

Aromatique is dedicated to providing the best. Best in products, best in design and marketing, and the best in customer service. Diversity and respect for ideas and creativity is encouraged throughout our company as we create fragrances designed to reawaken your most fond memories and enhance the home.
Aromatique, the Creator of Decorative Fragrance, was created in 1982 by Patti Upton. Patti gave birth to this dynamic company literally “just for fun.” She mixed together a mélange of native botanicals such as acorns, pine cones, gumballs and hickory nuts, fragranced them with spices, oils and ingenuity. Patti called her creation The Smell of Christmas and placed it in a friend’s gift shop. Visitors were enthralled. This extraordinary decorative fragrance quickly turned into an overnight success, and customers were consistently asking for more. Often copied but never duplicated, The Smell of Christmas remains the company’s flagship fragrance. As a leader in the fragrance industry noted, “It is great to create a wonderful fragrance, but to keep that fragrance at the top for over twenty years is amazing.”

And with these sizzling spa deals in ‘the Venice of America,’ now is the perfect time to enjoy special treatment.
Overtourism – The World’s Newest Wellness Destinations: Cities
Even in the world’s most crowded cities, people need a respite. It may seem counterintuitive to place a wellness hospitality property smack in the middle of a major metropolitan area. But the fact is, several of the world’s top wellness brands are moving beyond their roots in idyllic locations to set up shop in big cities. Aman is already in Tokyo; Six Senses recently opened in Singapore; and both wellness brands are coming to New York City in 2020. Kerzner International Holdings Limited recently announced it is evolving its One&Only portfolio to include One&Only Urban Resorts. The first will open in Dubai. Fivelements, which runs a famed Balinese eco-wellness resort, has launched a wellness day center concept in Hong Kong. According to Andrew Gibson, co-founder of the Wellness Tourism Association, “These examples of new wellness ventures in urban locations are a result of the overwhelming global interest in wellness and the increasing evidence that being healthy is not a preserve for the wealthy.”
Each of the companies mentioned is approaching its urban strategy differently. Aman’s urban properties appear to operate more like standard hotels, albeit with large spas and other wellness components. According to Roland Fasel, COO of Aman, the city hotels are designed around the brand pillars of high-touch service, creating experiences that derive from the local DNA, a holistic wellness component, uncomplicated luxury and understated elegance, and generosity of space. The orienting ethos of it all, says Fasel, is the idea of welcoming people into a home, which applies whether a guest is in the middle of nowhere or smack dab in the core of the Big Apple.
According to a press release, “One&Only Urban Resorts will challenge the conventional city hotel. In a buzzing and busy city, a place to escape the bright lights is always needed, a place to unwind; all urban resorts will offer beautifully designed green spaces to provide a serene sanctuary year-round.” Each urban resort will house a One&Only Gym, cycle and yoga studios, and a spa that is open around the clock.
Six Senses’ city properties will offer creative wellness programming, including options for social wellness. According to Anna Bjurstam, vice president, spas and wellness at Six Senses, “For example, in Singapore, where space is more limited, it’s about designing an immersive experience throughout the hotel through the content we are creating.” In such properties, where space is tight, she says, “wellness shows up in different ways.” For example, the Six Senses Duxton hosts a resident Chinese doctor, who provides complimentary consultations for guests. According to Six Senses CEO Neil Jacobs, Six Senses in Singapore will also be developing a restaurant menu with Chinese medicinal offerings.
Tara Spa Therapy Acquired to Expand Earthlite’s Massage & Body Products Capabilities
Last March, we acquired Tara Spa Therapy, manufacturer of premium massage, spa, and aromatherapy products. This investment signifies Earthlite’s long term intention to be a leader in the production of massage oils, cremes, lotions, and related products. Tara Grodjesk, founder of TARA Spa Therapy, Master Bodyworker, Aromatherapist, and Certified Ayurvedic Practitioner, has become Earthlite’s Master Product Alchemist. Tara, with her depth of knowledge and vast expertise, will lead the development of Earthlite’s expanded range of massage and body products for the industry.
Three New Premium Oil Blends
Today, we are proud to announce the launch of a new line of Earthlite massage oils. Three new premium blends, Pro-Lite™, Natural Nut™, and Pure Organic are available as of June 1 in both gallon and 8 oz sizes. The precision crafted Earthlite oils are made from the finest, first press oils available and are formulated specifically for intensive professional use, providing extended glide and superior workability.
Essential Oils and More Coming Soon
We are preparing to launch a complete line of high-quality essential oils and aromatherapy in the near future along with diffusers and muscle therapy products.
Men make up about 30% of Creative Hair Design Salon & Spa’s clientele, says owner John Mangiameli.
“Our men’s services include everything from haircuts to hair color, beard trimming and beard tinting, to manicures and pedicures and spa services,” Mangiameli says. “A lot of professional men get manicures because their hands are in front of people all the time. Pedicures help keep their feet looking and feeling better.”
A wide range of professional services for men and women combined with longtime customer satisfaction have helped Creative Hair Designwin Best Salon honors in The World-Herald’s 2019 Omaha’s Choice Awards. The salon won in the same category in 2017 and also claimed awards in 2016.
Mangiameli opened Creative Hair Design near 120th and Pacific Streets in 1981 with three employees. Today, he has more than 90 – and most have been with Mangiameli for decades. Second and third generations of Omaha families now are clients.
Creative Hair Design recently completed a $500,000 renovation that added more than 15,000 square feet. The hair and nail salon is on the first floor; the spa takes up the second floor.
Hair color is one of the salon’s specialties. Eyelash lifts and hair extensions are other sought-after services, Mangiameli says.
Couples’ massages are popular, too. “I was just talking with a customer who said she and her husband had had a fantastic couples’ massage. She was buying spa products for Father’s Day because he loved the experience so much.”
Is there anything more indulgent than a spa day? We think not, especially considering the treatments we found at some of the world’s most relaxing hotels. You could take an outdoor soak in the Tuscan countryside, or get a massage that mimics the soothing rhythms of the dreamy Pacific Ocean.
From exfoliating salt rubs infused with lavender and rosemary to fitness programs that feel like summer camp for adults, there’s nothing your money can’t buy — that is, if you have the budget to spend it. (Fortunately, you don’t have to go broke to reach nirvana on vacation. Plenty of treatments fall in the $100-to-$200 bracket, and there are many affordable spas.)
So if your stress level isn’t abating and only the finest spa pampering will do, here are some glamorous treatments guaranteed to make you feel like a star.
You’ll be a changed person after indulging in the Full Monteverdi, the Tuscan hotel’s 120-minute signature treatment. For €290 (about $330), you’ll get an exfoliating salt scrub — enriched with lavender, rosemary, lemon balm, and sweet orange — and ample time to soak in an outdoor tub overlooking the grand Val d’Orcia. A revitalizing massage will finish it off.
