Forever Young “A NEW YOU” MAKEOVER Winner!!!
Congrats, Helen Dinero!
By Nancy Jo Eckerson


On our sixth and final month, Helen has had a precious pampering experience. “Season’s Day Spa by Corto’s was incredible,” said Helen. “I felt like a movie star.” The spa is located in a beautiful Victorian-style house. The décor makes your day even more magical. “All the staff were so nice and the facility was sparkling clean and very attractive.”

Helen’s day at the fashionable Season’s Day Spa, 6101 South Park Boulevard in Hamburg, started with a fantastic foot massage. Her muscles were rejuvenated and wonderful lotions and oils applied that made her feel younger yet. The foot feast culminated in a pretty mauve pedicure. As Helen basked in the relaxing atmosphere, she was treated to her choice of coffee, tea or a lovely glass of wine.

Next came the manicure, complete with a hand and arm massage. These people really know how to make you feel like royalty! Add to all this the cozy charm of the fireplace and you have just the right touch to coax you away from the daily grind.

The Corto’s motto: “close to home, but a world away” is manifested in every detail of service to their clients. The associates are instructed in all the latest techniques and educated in the latest products, assuring you a heavenly visit.

Season’s Day Spa also offers a myriad of unique techniques and tools to beautify. From body wraps to vichey showers, hydrotherapy to waxing and sugaring, the serene atmosphere will restore you like never before.

“My facial felt great,” said Helen. “It was far more than I expected. They even massaged my neck, shoulders and arms. I couldn’t help but relax.”

After her glorious day at the spa, Helen then traveled two blocks down the road to Corto’s Hair Salon, to round out her makeover. Corto’s Salon located at 406 Buffalo Street, Hamburg, treated Helen to a new coiffure. They applied color and styled her beautiful curls to softly frame her facial features. Helen was thrilled. “I loved what they did with my hair and make-up. My beautician was pleasant and made me feel very comfortable.

“This makeover couldn’t have come at a better time. Thanks to Forever Young I have survived through the first winter without my dear husband. I am very thankful for all the people who offered their time to help me at Dr. Kurss’ Women’s Wellness Center of WNY, as well as the chic wardrobe from the Jacqueline Shoppe and my movie star day at Season’s Day Spa.”

Helen has changed her whole attitude about exercise now, too. “The makeover has started me on a better way of living and I’m determined to keep up this exercise! I’ve lost ten pounds, but the bigger excitement is that I really see now how it all works. It’s not so much about weight loss as it is about getting your body firmer and toned — adding more muscle. I can now fit into jeans that I haven’t worn in years.”

Helen has enjoyed her taste of celebrity, also. Not only did she appear on Channel 7s PM Buffalo, but she was also met by fans right on the street. “I was standing in line at the grocery store one day and the lady in line behind me kept staring at me. Finally, she got all excited and said, “I thought that was you! You’re the lady in Forever Young.” It’s such fun to be recognized.”

And so, Forever Young would like to thank all those involved in Helen’s awesome makeover experience. Dr. Kurss, we thank you for the countless hours spent developing a state-of-the-art health facility where East truly meets West in the many conventional and alternative modalities available at your Women’s Wellness Center of WNY. Your nutritional counseling has been an invaluable resource for Helen’s future success in weight management and overall health. Helen now has that inner glow that comes from good health.

Also, thanks to the following practitioners located at the Women’s Wellness Center of WNY who contributed to Helen’s radiance:

Dr. Scott Beres, thanks to your excellent chiropractic techniques, Helen has recovered a great deal of her mobility, which will add much joy to her life.

Personal trainer, Chuck Pelitera and staff, you have all given a great boost to Helen’s health, agility and self-confidence. “Hopefully, we have taught Helen the importance of exercise and good habits and she will continue practicing them for the rest of her life,” said Pelitera. “She is a tremendous person, a very nice lady.”

Carol Lee MacKay, we thank you for your insightful Accelerated Healing™ session encouraging the start of Helen’s recovery from her tragic loss. She reveled in the calm and peace she found there.

Derek Middleton, you gave Helen a chance to expand her horizons with the implementation of this very new therapy, Quantum Energy Biofeedback. Thank you all.
