Linda LaVelle Salon and Spa

Introduction: I began 35 year my career in aesthetics in the early 1970s. During that time, I studied under the most renown names in cosmetics and skin care worldwide, including Christine Valmy of New York, Marvin Westmore in California, Joel Gerson “Master of Skin Care Education”, Martin Jans in Holland, and Jean D’Estrees of Paris, France. I hold dozens of certifications in all areas of cosmetics, skin care, and hair care. Earned a Diploma in Beauty Specialty from the International Therapy Examination Council (ITEC). Recognized worldwide in 19 countries, ITEC is the largest international examination board offering the highest professional esthetic diplomas possible. I am one of a handful of aesthetists in the state of Florida who is board certified and has been awarded ITEC accreditation. I have worked as a make-up artist and skin care technician for Syd Simons Salon & Studio and Playboy International prior to opening Linda LaVelle’s Spa d’Esthetiques in 1983. The spa was recognized as “Day Spa of the Year for the Treasure Coast” in 2004 and I was named the 2004 “Republican Business Woman of the Year” for the state of Florida. While running successful spa in Stuart, Florida, I continue my education to address the skin care needs in the medical community. Working in conjunction with physicians, I provide pre and post operative skin care for plastic surgery patients with special chemical peels and Microdermabrasion, as well as facial lymphatic and esthetic drainage. Just the Facts Ma’am, is my First Book. Through it, I hope to continue my work helping women to live life the fullest and enjoy the skin they’re in. We carry signature skin care products and make-up line. So you see we are NOT just a Spa or Salon! Helping people to make their skin healthy and look GREAT! Helping women feel good about themselves, especially if problems getting through menopause! Helping people unstress and feel good!
