YOU GLOW, GIRL

Sometimes we have to convince ourselves that a perceived "treat" like a facial is actually more health-enhancing than we believe. How often does a real pro take a really close look at your skin? We think we know our own faces, but AWESOME estheticians Candy and Inga get up close and personal when they transform you here at Camp. Camper Mary (in the photo getting her Camp Facial) GLOWED (she may have even snoozed a bit during treatment). We encourage campers to utilize our pamperers' services when they get home. BEE-YOO-TEE-FUL.

Nap-Deprived? Several Varieties Available at Camp

NANO-NAP: 10-20 seconds. Sleep studies haven’t confirmed specific benefits to these brief intervals. However, if you aren't the driver, nod off on the way up the mountain and give us report when you arrive.
MICRO-NAP: 2-5 minutes. Surprisingly effective at shedding sleepiness. Excellent location: in front of our lodge fireplace.
MINI-NAP: 5-20 minutes. Increases alertness, stamina, motor learning, and motor performance. Camp deck benches, perfect!
ORIGINAL POWER NAP: 20 minutes delivers benefits of micro and mini; additionally improves muscle memory and clears the brain of useless built-up info, which helps with long-term memory (remembering facts, events, and names). Your bunk beckons.
REAL WOMAN'S NAP: a FULL HOUR for slow-wave plus REM sleep; good for improving perceptual processing; also when the system is flooded with human growth hormone, great for repairing bones and muscles. Tuck into that sleeping bag after lunch -- zzzzzzzzz, girlfriend.

Pampering How-To

Camp GetAway is the PERFECT place for a “first” massage or facial. Experienced clients give our gals top scores, too. Our pamperers are pros who put you at ease, they will walk you thru the process. No snobs here! They want you to have a comfortable experience, so talk to them.You are greeted at the waiting area, shown to a place to undress in private; once you are snugly under a clean, fresh sheet, they enter.
If there's anything you want worked on specifically, now is the time to say. Tight shoulders? Sore back? A massage therapist can do wonders. Is your skin sensitive or do you prefer certain types of facial products? Tell your esthetician now.When finished, you redress in private.
Are Massages Naked? Only if you want, it’s perfectly fine to leave undergarments on.
What About Facials? Our pros use plenty of fresh towels and sheets to cover body parts, so keeping a bra on is not a problem. You’ll want to remove your shirt, however, for lotions on neck and shoulders. Registered campers receive a full packet in the mail, which includes the appointment booking form for pamperings. Don't delay booking your spa treatment, many sell out before the weekend.
