THE HOTEL MILLENIUM: TREASURE FOR THE TIRED TRAVELLER 55 Church Street (between Fulton & Day Streets) New York, NY 10007 (212) 693-2001 JUDITH JACKSON AROMATHERAPY (Information and Products) (800) 548-9928 Located in New York's bustling Wall Street area, The Hotel Millenium caters to the needs of businessmen and businesswomen all over the country and the world. Its services and facilities have been thoughtfully designed to assure that executives can easily conduct the necessary negotiations that brought them into town. They recognize that stress, jet lag, and dislocation are inherent with business travel and have made a conscious attempt to treat their visitors as "whole people." That's why they have developed a Full Fitness Center offering state-of-the-art equipment, personal trainers, massages, and a swimming pool for their guests. There's also a Personal Care Salon where manicures, pedicures, and facials are featured (the Salon is open to the public). Now The Hotel Millenium has collaborated with Judith Jackson, leading Aromatherapist and internationally-known author, to provide yet another service for the weary traveller. The Millenium's AROMATHERAPY PROGRAM combines the age-old science of using pure, natural essential oils with a unique massage procedure to put even the most seasoned traveller's body into balance and give them a sense of well-being. Oils, such as lavender, eucalyptus, and sandalwood, have been shown to improve the skin, uplift the spirit, and calm the nerves. For their massage, guests can choose soothing, stimulating fragrances with enticing names like "Therapy," "Vitality," and "Sensuality." The massage itself includes unusual strokes and manipulations that concentrate on muscles and acupressure points. I can personally attest that this is the most comprehensive and relaxing half-hour massage I have ever encountered. You can also opt for a full hour if you can stand that much bliss! And after you discover that you have been depriving your body of the great sensations of an Aromatherapy Massage, you don't have to take up permanent residency at The Hotel Millenium. You can purchase THE TRAVEL WELL KIT, available only at The Millenium, and take it home with you. Judith Jackson has devised this portable kit to cope with some of the most common problems of travellers: fatigue, insomnia, aches and pains, and congestion. The essential oils of vetyver, ylang ylang, and tangerine in the "Relax Bath" wash away tension and help you sleep through the night. The "Energy Shower" gets you started for the day with the fragrances of lemon, juniper, and rosemary. You can provide your own alleviation of sore, stiff joints and muscles with the "Relief Body Massage," and "Topical Aid" will take care of any minor cuts or burns that may occur away from home. "Breathe Free" is a marvelously potent combination of lavender and eucalyptus that will clear your sinuses and breathing passages. An information brochure, complete with travel tips, comes with each TRAVEL WELL KIT. Now what if you're a traveller (like me) who travels everywhere in the world except New York City or just a tired New Yorker in need of some well-being? Don't despair--you too can purchase THE TRAVEL WELL KIT. The Hotel Millenium will be happy to provide you with a kit (price is $20), or you can contact Judith Jackson directly. You can also use Jackson's 800 number to order refills or find out about her other products. So the next time you find yourself scheduled for a trip, you can pack your suitcase with a sense of serenity. THE TRAVEL WELL KIT-- don't leave home without it! - Laurie Lawson-
