Staying Healthy Through Cold & Flu Season

It's that time of year again! The time of year when we head to our local grocery/drug store to stock up on Kleenex, cough drops, Emergen-C, and all those other necessities to prevent and help fight illness. But, did you know that you could be missing out on something that is "essential" to preventing illness. So what is it you might be asking? It is a fantastic blend of essential oils made by doTERRA called On Guard. It is known as the "Protective Blend"and for its abilities to kill harmful bacteria, mold and viruses. This particular blend of oils is a great one to diffuse into the air and is also used to clean and purify household surfaces.

If you don't have a diffuser, the best way to use On Guard is topically by massaging it on the throat, stomach, and bottoms of the feet. When using on children it may be best to dilute with fractionated coconut oil as their skin can be more sensitive.

Common Uses: Oral abscess, air pollution, antibacterial, antifungal, cleansing, colds, coughs, flu, pneumonia, sore throat, and much more.

Single Oils in This Blend:

Wild Orange: Antibacterial, antifungal, antidepressant, and antiseptic. Is also a powerful disinfectant and aggressive against colds and flu.

Clove Bud: Antibacterial, antifungal, anti-infectious, antiparasitic, strong antiseptic, antiviral and an immune stimulant.

Cinnamon Bark: is a powerful purifier, powerful oxygenator, and helps enhance the activity of other oils. May have a stimulating and toning effect on the entire body especially on the circulatory system. It's antibacterial, antifungal, anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial.

Eucalyptus radiata: may have profound antiviral effect on the respiratory system. Has strong antibacterial, anticatarrhal, and antiseptic properties.

Rosemary: may help balance heart function, energize solar plexus, and reduce mental fatigue. May improve circulation and help stimulate nerves. It's antiseptic and anti-infectious.

One of the great things about On Guard is the wide variety of products that have been created that we can use in many aspects of our daily lives. Aside from the essential oil blend itself, doTERRA has created On Guard foaming hand soap, protecting throat drops, natural whitening toothpaste, cleaner concentrate, laundry detergent, soft gel capsules, and beadlets.

On Guard, along with all the other amazing doTERRA products can be purchased here at the spa or online through our online doTERRA store.

Some Exciting News

Well, we have had a busy Fall season so far but we've got some pretty exciting things happening here at Aria Day Spa & Boutique. Those of you who have been into the spa know that we have a pretty small space. Since Aimee added the boutique last December, we have tried our very best to utilize every possible inch of space but there comes a time when not enough space is just that...not enough space. With that being said, I am excited to tell you all that we are MOVING!!! Not far at all though, just right across the parking lot. Now, by looking at the picture it may seem like our new location is smaller but just remember, looks can be deceiving. There is still quite a bit of work to be done before we can move in, but Aimee and her mom along with a couple of very able men have been working hard to make sure that the new building will have just the right spa look and feel. Not only will we be expanding the boutique but we've got an amazing manicurist that will now be working at our new location!!!


With Christmas just around the corner, it is time to start your holiday shopping if you haven't already so come on in and check out everything Aria day Spa & Boutique has to offer. We are still at our original location so stay tuned for an official moving date!!!
