(See Ad page 13) NAIL TREATMENTS A hot holiday is the perfect time to take extra special care of your hands and feet, since your days are spent with them exposed to the elements of nature and everyone notices them with the simplicity of island attire. Manicures, French polishes, pedicures, and nail repairs are offered. You can treat yourself to the basics or go all out and have the works. Beware of insisting on having acrylics applied, as they are not recommended for the health of your nail and our climate can encourage infection to take hold. HAIR STYLING There are several salons around the island that offer simple cuts, styling, colour, highlights, foil treatments, as well as a variety of other options. There are a few stylists that are equipped to come to the privacy and convenience of your own home. You can also have your hair braided and beaded in a salon, along the beach in front of a few of the larger resorts, or in some of the souvenir shops. MAKE-UP SERVICES A special occasion? Part of a bridal party? Many of the island’s salons have trained professionals that can help you with your make-up needs. PILATES Pilates was designed by Joseph Pilates in 1883 as a way to encourage health with a focus on the mind/body connection. Pilates is a progressive conditioning exercise which helps create long, lean muscles, with a special emphasis on core strength and muscle tone. Exercises can be modified for the level of fitness of the participant, so it’s a great exercise routine for beginners and advanced practitioners. YOGA Yoga is a way of moving into balance and stillness through the use of asanas (poses) and breath control (pranayama) in order to experience the beauty and truth of who you are. It is said, that at our core we are all blissful beings, we only need to clear the path in our minds and bodies to be in that state, this is the quest of yoga. Once union (yoga) has happened between the mind and body, then one can truly be present in this very moment. Now is the perfect time, for anyone of all ages, shapes and sizes, to begin. While in paradise move towards balance, inner peace and stillness. AEROBICS There are a number of aerobic classes offered on the island at the local gyms and several of the resorts. These include step, high and low impact, circuit, and body sculpting, which includes using weights and slower movements focusing on form, interspersed with more intense cardio portions, as well as the ever popular water aerobics.
