If you believe ‘diamonds are a girl’s best friend you won’t want to miss trying one of the new gemstone therapies offered at a few select spas across the country. It’s one of the hottest new treatment trends where actual gemstones like Sapphires, Emeralds, Diamonds, Turquoise and Jade are used. Gemstones have a rich history of helping to promote healing and now these rejuvenating powers are being harnessed into some exclusive spa treatments. In Arizona, using the ancient wisdom of Native Americans, the JW Desert Ridge Resort and Spa in Phoenix has just unveiled a new line of turquoise gemstone treatments including a Turquoise Massage, facial, body cocoon and the ultimate Turquoise Blue Sage Body Ritual. Turquoise is known for its uplifting qualities, inspiring inner peace and intuition. During the turquoise body ritual actual gemstone are placed on the body’s four energy centers to help draw in energy and balance the senses. The Turquoise used at Revive Spa is from Arizona and you can even take a special tour to a Turquoise mine where you can search for your own gemstones.

 Coming up tomorrow TRAVEL THERAPY heads to Beverly Hills where I check out a gemstone threatment where real Diamonds, Emeralds and Sapphires are used! It just gets better and better!
