LAS VEGAS—Treasure Island has unveiled its newest luxe attraction, the Oleksandra Spa & Salon, dedicated to offering clients a world-class facility for relaxation and pampering, as well as a multitude of therapeutic services and techniques used around the globe that possess measurable health benefits and invigorating properties. The spa, named after and designed by Oleksandra Nikolayenko-Ruffin, wife of Treasure Island owner Phil Ruffin, offers treatments hand picked by Mrs. Ruffin that reflect her personal philosophy on health and beauty. “An exceptional spa and salon enhances health and wellbeing,” Ruffin said. “My philosophy is simple: Provide therapies with recognizable results and wellness benefits, and products with pure ingredients in a relaxing, immaculate environment. I want our guests to feel enveloped by beauty and wellness, and retain that feeling well after they return home.” Ruffin has visited some of the most luxurious spas and salons throughout the world and added her favorite treatments to the spa including: • Banya – Banyas provide a wetter, more humid sauna experience internationally renown for its health benefits. As patrons relax in the heat, a therapist ladles water on hot rocks to add moisture to the air and waves a bundle of dried leaves in the air to release natural oils that help rejuvenate the skin. The therapist then strokes, brushes, and taps the client’s body with the leaf bundle to improve circulation. The heat induces sweating, which helps remove toxins from the body, opens pores and softens skin. • Pressotherapy – A specially designed suit produces a wave of pressure like two hands gently massaging the body and limbs simultaneously. Pressotherapy increases lymphatic drainage and venous return, helps the body detoxify, and improves oxygen levels in the skin, which helps to slim and redefine the legs, stomach and arms. This is an ideal treatment for those receiving cellulite treatments and its effects are instantly noticeable. • Intraceuticals Infusion Treatments – This revolutionary skincare treatment infuses moisture, vitamins and anti-oxidants into the skin, creating luminous age defying results. Skin becomes smoother and more refreshed. Oleksandra Spa & Salon also offers: • Everlasting Color Gel Manicure and Pedicure – This manicure and pedicure is an exclusive service at Oleksandra Spa & Salon. Guests receive a color gel by OPI that prevents color chipping and nail bed damage, and maintains the beauty and shine of a pedicure or manicure for a full two weeks. • Lomi Lomi Massage – Experience the art of this ancient Hawaiian massage ritual, sometimes called the “Loving Hands” massage. Lomi Lomi uses full body massage strokes that travel the length of the body in soothing waves and inspire a new level of relaxation. • Organic products – Since chemicals and toxins detract from your health, Oleksandra Spa & Salon uses an organic line of products that are safe enough to eat and certified Kosher. The spa also features services packages that raise relaxation and pampering to a new level, including: • Ladies Only Package- A 50-minute Aromatherapy Massage, a 25-minute Vichy Shower Body Exfoliation and a 25-minute all natural hydrotherapy bath. • Togetherness Package- A couples package that includes gentle full body polish, 50-minute couples massage and an O Spa Signature Pedicure. • Nurturing Retreat for the Mother-To-Be – A 25-minute nourishing facial, 50-minute Pre-Natal Massage. • Spa Signature Package- An O Spa Signature Massage, a 50- minute Opulence Brightening Infusion facial, and an O Spa Signature Manicure and Pedicure. Ruffin takes pride in the look, feel and cleanliness of her spa. Guests are surrounded with soft, calming colors, nature-inspired mosaics, fresh flowers, comfortable spaces and a spotless environment. “Only when a room is absolutely clean and everything is in its place can I feel at ease and allow myself to fully relax,” Ruffin said. “I want our guests to be completely at ease and enjoy themselves.” Las Vegas locals can take advantage of 20 percent off all spa and salon services during the grand opening. Oleksandra Spa & Salon is located on the third floor of Treasure Island Las Vegas and open 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Appointments can be made by calling (702) 894-7474. |
