There are fewer things more enjoyable or relaxing than a day of pampering oneself. Some would suggest that it is not a luxury but in fact a necessity to ward off stress and discourage premature wear and tear on our bodies. Of course, there is nothing like that feeling you get after a wonderful spa or salon service that perks you up, puts a little swagger in your stride and a little sass in your attitude. Whether you are a visitor or local to South Florida , a trip over to Coconut Grove for lunch with the girls and a tour of the salon/spa offerings or if you are a gentleman who is looking for some “manscaping” there are numerous options in Coconut Grove.
