Soothing Change
A Touch of Health Day Spa has changed its name to Soothe Your Senses Day Spa (2130 Monroe St., Mandeville, 985-674-1987; www.sootheyoursenses.com) to be more easily identified with the nationally marketed aromatherapy products of the same name developed by owner Sharon Mathieu and her daughter Gretchen Halpin. The spa therapies and organic aromatherapy products follow the Southern tradition of "traiteurs," or Creole healers, of which Mathieu's father was one. Services include massage, skin care, body sugaring, manicures and pedicures and aromatherapy treatments. The Soothe Your Senses product line includes about 50 items and soon will include aromatherapy products for babies.
