Radiant Skin Starts Here: Don’t Miss Vitamin C Week at Hiatus Day Spa • Med Spa

Get ready for summer skin at Hiatus Day Spa • Med Spa with Vitamin C Week. Photo: Hiatus Day Spa • Med Spa, used with permission.

Your skin is your body’s first line of defense against the sun and environmental pollutants, making protection essential for long-term health. Ultraviolet (UV) rays can cause premature aging, sunburn, and increase the risk of skin cancer. Environmental factors like pollution and harsh weather conditions can accelerate skin damage, leading to dryness, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. Using sunscreen, wearing protective clothing, and maintaining a skincare routine with antioxidants can help shield your skin from harm. Hydration and a healthy diet also support skin resilience. Prioritizing skin protection today ensures healthier, more youthful skin in the future.

As sunny days are finally approaching, Hiatus Day Spa • Med Spa is celebrating with Vitamin C Week, running April 1st to 7th. Protecting against sun and environmental damage is always important, especially as the UV increases with the Texas heat. (Hiatus Day Spa • Med Spa, 2025)

Vitamin C helps protect, brighten, and rejuvenate while boosting collagen and defending against environmental damage. Guests can enjoy Vitamin C week with 15% off best-selling SkinCeuticals antioxidant products, including C E Ferulic, Phloretin CF & Gel, Silymarin CF, AOX+ Eye Gel, and Resveratrol B E. Additionally, purchase three full-sized bottles and receive a large travel-size (15ML) PTIOX serum as a complimentary gift (while supplies last).

Appointments with skin care specialists who can help select the right Vitamin C serum for each skin type can be booked here.

Free online book: ‘Details of Reality’ by Peter Laska

‘Details of Reality: True Accounts With An Invisible Individual’ is Peter Laska’s free online book. Courtesy photo, used with permission.

A Ouija board, also known as a spirit board or talking board, is a flat board marked with letters, numbers, the words ‘yes,’ ‘no,’ ‘hello,’ and ‘goodbye’ along with other symbols and graphics. Some people believe that it facilitates communication with the supernatural world. If you are interested in the subject, or curious about how they may work, here is an online book worth exploring. “DETAILS OF REALITY: True Accounts With An Invisible Individual” is a free online book by Peter Laska which gets updated much like a blog might get updated. (Peter Laska, 2023)

That is because the book is about Ouija board communications, and every once and a while, new information comes in from the spirit world. In the book, the author explains how he came to start using the Ouija board, why he thinks the information he gets from it really comes from the spirit world, and most interestingly, he presents the questions he has asked the Ouija board as well as answers he has received. The book was written in a way which aims to satisfy any reader’s quest for esoteric knowledge.

Hiatus Spa + Retreat debuts clean CBD products

Hiatus Spa + Retreat now has two clean CBD Products: Knot Today Active Muscle Cream and Soothing Joint Serum. Photo: Hiatus Spa + Retreat, used with permission.

Hiatus Spa + Retreat, the award-winning Texas day spa with eight locations across the state, now offers a clean CBD line of products featuring a Knot Today Active Muscle CBD Cream (valued at $49) and a Knot Today Soothing Joint Serum (valued at $49), both offered online and in-spa. Each 2oz. product contains Hiatus’ 99.5% pure, 100% THC-free CBD. (Hiatus Spa + Retreat, 2022)

Anyone with muscle or joint pain can benefit from Hiatus’ CBD products including athletes who are experiencing delayed onset muscle soreness, anyone recovering from injury, and those experiencing pain and discomfort from conditions like arthritis, tendonitis, or bursitis. Since their CBD is 99.5% pure and 100% THC-free, their CBD muscle cream and joint serum are perfect for anyone who is looking for a hyper-clean CBD product.

  • Knot Today Active Muscle CBD Cream: The experience of their CBD Active Muscle Cream feels very…active. The 12% menthol concentration provides an immediate powerful cooling sensation, but the methyl salicylate, which also gives the product its dominant wintergreen aroma, leaves a lasting warming sensation after the menthol subsides. Though it is intended for sore muscles, it also contains Arnica montana extract, which is perfect for reducing swelling and bruising. The product base is totally greaseless, colorless, and absorbs quickly without residue. 
  • Knot Today Soothing Joint Serum: The experience of the Soothing Joint Serum is much more subtle yet effective. Hiatus paired the CBD with a joint-nourishing herbal cocktail of German Chamomile, Lavender, Sweet Marjoram, Frankincense, and a hint of cooling Peppermint in a clean, greaseless, fast-absorbing serum.

“What a lot of people don’t realize is that cannabinoids, the family of molecules that CBD is a part of, are already in bodies as part of our natural endocannabinoid system. This system helps to regulate many of the body’s major physiological functions, such as appetite and metabolism, sleep, stress, pain, and many others. If a runner is training for an event, they’re likely putting their body under a lot of repeated stress over an extended amount of time. This might not always result an injury, but any runner can tell you they have had to power through some minor aches and pains. This stress and recovery cycle can outpace the level at which the natural endocannabinoid system can keep up with. Incorporating CBD is like supplementing your body’s own natural system. At 99.5% pure, our Active Muscle Cream contains one of the purest forms of CBD available, partnered with 2 kinds of pain relieving agents and 2 herbal anti-inflammatory extracts to target today’s pain and aid tomorrow’s recovery.” –– Mason Hickman, Hiatus Director of Education + Product Development

With eight locations across Texas, eight years on Inc. 5000’s fastest-growing companies, and an innovative spa subscription model, Hiatus Spa + Retreat is a fresh kind of full-service spa that has changed the wellness industry. Powered by products with real green ingredients and a high-touch experience, Hiatus’ personalized approach to wellness is driven by the view that regular relaxation should be an empowering part of a healthy, happy lifestyle.
