Taking care of one’s skin leads to a steady stream of compliments, just like hanging out with Grandma’s knitting group. Garner praise with today's Groupon: for $149, you get six pulsed-light removal treatments for spider veins, sunspots, or other pigmented lesions (a $1,440 value) at Sitamaa Day Spa, located downtown in the Manulife Centre.
Named for the Hindu goddess Sita, Sitamaa Day Spa offers state-of-the-art medical and aesthetic treatments in a peaceful, nurturing environment. During the non-invasive, 25-minute pigmentation removal procedure, a SharpLight laser breaks down discoloured tissue into tiny particles that are shed within one to two weeks with natural exfoliation and persistent nagging. Since the procedure has little to no downtime, clients can leave immediately afterwards to stroll through the nearby galleries and boutiques of stylish Bloor-Yorkville. Treatments can focus on up to four areas at one appointment, and clients will usually see results after three to six sessions. Sitamaa Day Spa's décor, like its services, fuse ancient wisdom with modern style—clients check in at a sleek, modern reception area accented by an ornately carved antique gate, next to a row of steam-powered ray guns and a holographic cotton gin.
Reviews
The Vancouver Sun and other media outlets have mentioned Sitamaa Day Spa, and the spa has been featured in numerous blogs including I Want - I Got, Mama Papa, and MyBindi.com:
- I have to admit, I felt really good after the treatment. My skin was very soft and I smelled amazing. A friend said I was glowing later. I loved that the Aesthetian talked only when she had to and left me to my own devices. – I Want - I Got
- Their aim is to deliver not only premium spa services in a beautiful environment, but also impart knowledge about self-care and overall lifestyle habits which affect us. Being in natural healthcare, where much of my focus is on prevention and healthy living - I sincerely appreciated the lifestyle-based approach at Sitamaa – so much more than just a spa in the city. – Dr. Shamira, MyBindi.com
