Rejuvenate & Detox with our March Special

On a daily basis, we are exposed to free radicals and toxins via:
  1. The air we breath
  2. The water we drink
  3. The food we eat
  4. The personal care products we put on our body
We have become finally educated on the importance of fresh organic food that is not processed. We can certainly control what we drink & what we put on our bodies. The air we breath is more challenging to get away from. By becoming mindfully aware, we can take charge of the HEALTH and wellness of our mind, body & soul. March is an amazing month to get us back to a state of balance by rejuvenating it & detoxing it (mildly of course). Here are some convenient ways for us to get you started at our Holistic Center:

Our Holistic Wellness Retreat to Malinalco Mexico





Words cannot simply describe the enrich experience we shared at our journey
to Malinalco Mexico, a small town with such high female energy surrounded
by mountains where one can truly experience a culture at a local level. Listening to the words of an Aztec Worrier who carried the souls of his ancestors in his blood & elegantly shed a light into his world, warmed up my heart, especially when it was touched by his hand filled with inner fire. Meditating at the sacred ground in Xochicalco and learning about our animal guides was completely a blessing I will never forget.

True gratitude to Lillian Aviles Chapa of Flor Escapes for the gift of OVERstanding the value of holistic retreat and all the details surrounding it. Lillian's vision & eye for an transformable experience is a GIFT. Taking our three person team on the road for the first time, testing our connection & the work that we do, has been priceless. We will soon be a 4 person team with Keya Bala and adding the element of "expression" to our work that will complete our approach. www.florescapes.com

I came out of this trip with so much more than I had ever imagined & now have a clearer vision of HOLECO.................

With pure LOVE
Honi Borden :)

The most common places are Nasolabial folds, Marionette Lines, Mental Crease, Lips and Under the eyes.

Holeco™ Wellness Medi Spa moves to DC at the end of August to join NIHA :)

Dear All:

As many of you may already know, it has been a couple of years that I have initiated continuous efforts in moving to another space in Northern Virginia. Over and over, I did not find the right space and each time I became more aware that the future held something else that I was seeing. Well, the answers came, but completely different than what I was seeking and more than I had ever asked for. I would like to share the wonderful news with you that we (Holeco™ Wellness Medi Spa) are finally moving to DC (Friendship Heights area) at the end of August and joining NIHA (National Integrated Health Associates) www.NIHAdc.com where we will be with a group of all alternative/holistic physicians and practitioners that value Health from the inside out. I am incredibly excited about this new chapter in life & thrilled being a part of this completed model of integrated health that facilities more positive change in our future.

I would like to take this moment and acknowledge your choice of supporting our green business these past 3 years and how meaningful it is to us. Holeco™ Team & I are truly grateful that you recognize our efforts in creating alternative solutions in the medical aesthetics industry, where we believe one's health is to be honored & kindness to environment is respected along the way. I never thought for a second when 9 years ago my son & husband's horrific skin irritation & health related issues will result in this dream that has turned into reality by blending the world of organic & non-toxic with medical aesthetics & green living.
Looking forward in seeing you at our grand opening
Please be sure you are on our group list to learn about all the upcoming events: http://groups.google.com/group/holeco-wellness-medi-spa
