Some of the Most Exciting Spa Specials and Packages

“It’s very important to take care of yourself. Everyone’s lives are so busy. Take at least an hour a day to recharge and do whatever makes you better. For grown-ups, whether it’s a spa, sitting in a park with a book, or coffee, take time for yourself. –Ana Ivanovic

Ana Is a Serbian Athlete that must take care of her mind, body and soul in order to be the very best at what she does. When she speaks of taking care of yourself, for even just an hour, it’s a bit of advice that we should all consider. Like Ana said, one way you can take care of yourself is to book a Spa treatment. Ana mentioned coffee, a book, or sitting in the park as all options to recharge your batteries. Our Camellia Inn located in downtown Healdsburg is surrounded by wonderful coffee shops, parks, great places to eat and so much more. Our Spa, though, is a huge attraction, and the reason to keep reading this blog post.

“I think if I took therapy, the doctor would quit. He’d just pick up the couch and walk out of the room.” –Don Rickles

If you’ve read our blog posts before, we think it’s fun to start with a little humor, and there’s no better person to quote than Don Rickles. He was as funny as funny can be, and he lived his whole life trying to bring joy through laughter. He completely succeeded in his profession.

The Gardens at the Camellia Inn

Our Gardens at the Camellia Inn have been flourishing since the Lewand family took over in 1981. They were what one of the biggest proponents to why the Lewands decided to call it the Camellia Inn. More than 80 plants bloom throughout the winter on the inn’s landscaped grounds. We highly recommend that you take a self-guided tour of our property. Here you’ll be able to experience our history through beauty. You can begin this tour at the Fish Pond patio, which faces the tree-lined North Street. The Evergreen Dogwood is on your left which has the distinguishable yellow/green flowers in summer, which develop pink overtones as they mature. With its strawberry-like pods, the tree was planted to screen the side of the house. It is a very rare variety. Lucy Lewand’s sister Chris grew it from seed.

You’ll then notice an old Tulip Tree that has bloomed beautifully bringing calm joy to everyone that experiences it. You can cross over the brick patio to the right, where there are the oldest Camellias at the Camellia Inn that were planted by the doctor and his wife. The Lewands have added more than 40 additional varieties of camellias since starting the Inn. The Japanese Maple was added in 1988 as shade for the camellias. This is just a short portrait of the beautiful nature that you can find solace in when you visit us at the Camellia Inn. Please click the following link to read in more detail, everything our garden at the Camellia Inn provides. https://camelliainn.com/self-guided-garden-tour/

Benefits of an Aromatherapy Massage with Rose Essential Oil

“Morning or night, I love putting mint or spearmint oil on my temples and the back of my neck. There’s this aromatherapy quality of both easing tension and waking you up.” — Lily Collins

If you’ve never heard of the 29 year old actress, we think you should probably look her up. She’s a beautiful person, and from what we gather from her quote is that she’s a fan of aromatherapy. There are so many benefits for your mind body and soul when you start implementing aromatherapy into your everyday lives. We’d like to discuss those benefits and especially the benefits of an Aromatherapy Massage with Rose Essential Oil.

What is Aromatherapy?

Aromatherapy Massage

Before we get to the benefits of an Aromatherapy Massage with Rose Essential Oil, we’d like to define exactly what Aromatherapy is and can do for an individual. Wikipedia defines aromatherapy, “Aromatherapy uses plant materials and aromatic plant oils, including essential oils, and other aroma compounds, with claims for improving psychological or physical well-being.” Administering aromatherapy into your everyday lives can be done by yourself or through massages, such as one you can find at the Camellia Inn.

Rose Oil…Oh you bet big time!!

Why do we want to discuss the benefits of Aromatherapy with Rose Essential Oil is probably the follow up question to what is Aromatherapy? Rose essential oil is a type of essential oil that comes from the Rosa damascena plant. This is where the flower’s aromatic compounds exist. Massage therapists all understand that these compounds possess healing powers. We all know that there are a plethora of different Rose colors and scents. With that said, those colors and scents have been compounded down into Essential Rose Oils that can help you overcome many mind or body or soul complications.

Check out these proven benefits!

We all know that science is always evolving, and soon there will be more information for all of us to learn about why the Benefits of an Aromatherapy Massage with Rose Essential Oil is becoming so popular.

Your Stress levels can be helped…

Getting an aromatherapy massage with Rose essential oil can help relieve stress. There was a study conducted back in 2009. The study was published in Natural Product Communications. There were 40 healthy people whom absorbed the rose essential oil through their skin. The results were that each individual felt an increased calmness and relaxed state of life. Some also found their blood pressure was decreased while others were happy to have a lower breathing rate.

Rose Oil can help your Skin Health

There are many qualities of rose essential oil that make it beneficial for skin. There was a 2010 article published that proved that Chinese researchers uncovered that rose oil exhibited one of the strongest bactericidal activities compared to 10 other oils. They also discovered that just after five minutes the benefit of a Aromatherapy massage with Rose Essential oil could destroy acne. Essentially, what this means is that when rose is added to your beauty and skin products, it opens up your skin to absorb more of the chemicals and nutrients.

Sedates Inflammation

If you are like me, who is aging and in need of a way to reduce inflammation then a aromatherapy massage with Rose Essential Oil is a great option. Rose Essential oil is beneficial in cases of inflammation caused by microbial infection, ingestion of poisonous materials, indigestion, and dehydration. This can result in a reduction of associated conditions like rheumatism, arthritis, gout, and fever.

Anxiety

Another benefit of an Aromatherapy massage with Rose essential oil is that it acts as a tonic for the nerves. It gives them the strength to bear shock and protects them from disorders resulting from age and injuries. It will keep your hands from trembling and help you overcome your anxiety when you are in an unideal situation or you are having a tough time getting your mind centered.

The Camellia Inn and Aromatherapy Massage with Rose Essential Oil

Rose Essential Oil is another Great option for anyone needing treatment for any number of ailments. The benefits we listed above are just a few of the many that can be treated with Rose Essential oil. Having an aromatherapy massage with Rose Essential Oil is something we highly believe in, and something that’s becoming more and more popular every day. We highly suggest you do you research to learn more about the history of Rose Oil, and how it can be administered. If you’d like to email us or call us at the Camellia Inn, we can help point in answering those questions. At the end of the day, all we want to provide is a way to help you become the very best you! Hope to hear from you soon!

This is a community screening partnership between the Alexander Valley Film Society and Healdsburg Center for the Arts as part of their “Artists on Climate Change” exhibit. During his four-decade career as a photographer and explorer, James Balog has focused his lens on the complex relationship between humans and nature. Human activity has now surpassed all other forces shaping our world. Balog’s work has challenged us to contemplate our place in, and responsibility to, the natural world. Balog investigates how altering the elements is in turn affecting everyday Americans right now. The Human Element features subjects who are often overlooked victims of climate change. Balog visits Tangier Island, a fishing community facing the imminent reality of sea level rise threatening their future. Yadira Sanchez and her three children in Denver, Colorado, all of whom suffer from asthma, and attend a special school for children struggling with air. Balog embeds with a Cal Fire strike team on the frontlines of the most expensive wildfire in California history. And he ventures deep into Kentucky coal country, meeting unemployed miners finding hope from a new source. Balog argues that humans are part of the whole system of nature and not apart from it. Knowing this, he finds great hope that the fifth element, the human element, can bring the whole system back into balance. If you want to be a part of this educational and important screening, then head over to the Raven’s website to find out how to buy tickets. https://ci.ovationtix.com/34924/production/1003616?performanceId=10360769

Nature at Its Best at Russian River

“In all my wanderings upon this earth I had never before traversed so Eden-like a vale as that between Santa Rosa and Mark West. It was nature’s own park. Wild oats, clover and other indigenous grasses intermingled with a profusion of wildflowers of every shade and hue bedecked the broad expanse of plains…” — Former Petaluma Argus editor E.S. Lippitt in the 1800s

This quote encapsulates the very essence of what the Russian River community has been built upon. From Santa Rosa to our beautiful town of Healdsburg, the growth of Sonoma county has been beautiful. For over 100 years, the Russian River has been the summer playground for West Coast California.  Located just a short drive from the San Francisco area and Sacramento, visitors can explore the majestic redwoods, incredible wineries, fine dining and arts, eco-adventures, spa days, river activities and so much more in an incredibly beautiful, natural setting. Here you’ll find places to stay, things to do, restaurants for farm-to-table dining, wineries and tasting rooms.

Say Yes to the Best B and B In Healdsburg

“Don’t make things too complicated. Try to relax, enjoy every moment, get used to everything.” – Angelique Kerber

This is easier said than done when it comes to our lives. Our lives are filled with many unplanned interruptions so it’s hard to find time to relax and get away from the stress of every day life.

“Room Service”

B and B in Healdsburg

If you are a lover of a good show, then our B and B in Healdsburg has an option for you to enjoy. “Room Service” is a way to let go of the rigors of everyday life. You can get swept away to the year of 1937, where a nimble-witted producer, living on credit with several actors in a Broadway hotel, stumbles onto a great script with an angel that has $15,000 to invest! But when the angel wants to back out, the producer eludes the reluctant angel, outwits creditors, and manages to produce his play in spite of unexpected obstacles in this classic screwball comedy. It’s a great play that will have an Opening Night filled with Bubbly. On Sunday, there will be a post show Discussion. Join them for opening night of any production and stay afterward for a celebratory toast to the cast and crew! Immediately following all Sunday matinees, members of the cast and crew will return to the stage to answer your questions. This event will last until February 10th. But you should book it now because tickets will sell out rapidly. Head over to this website to learn more and to buy tickets. https://www.raventheater.org/
