San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) February 7, 2005
ItÂ’s almost ValentineÂ’s Day and time to think about hearts! Or more precisely heart health. Lavande Nail Spa in San Francisco is doing just that with their event scheduled for Monday February 7th.
Entitled “Hands Over Our Hearts”, the company’s two San Francisco locations will be holding an all day ‘manicurathon’ to raise money for the American Heart Association.
From 9 am to 9 pm all proceeds from each treatment done at the spa(manicure/pedicure/ facial/ massage, ect) will be donated to the American Heart Association. A large goal for the event is to educate women on the particular dangers they face with heart disease. American Heart Association representatives will be on hand to talk about women and heart disease prevention.
The spas are located at 113 Carl Street in the Cole Valley, and 2139 Polk Street near Broadway in the Polk Gulch. Goodie bags will be given to those booking appointments in advance.
Hands Over Our HeartsÂ’, will take place on Monday, February 7th, 2005, and will feature an all day manicurathon at Lavande Nail Spas two San Francisco locations.
‘Hands Over Our Hearts’ will support education and research programs by donating the proceeds for the 12 hour event to the American Heart Association.
“Cardiovascular disease is the number one killer of men and women alike. But what many don’t realize is that statistically more women die of CVS every year than men,” says Lavande Nail Spa founder Jennifer Leung. “A good amount of education is out there about breast cancer, but we feel not enough is being done to educate women about Heart Disease – and since February is the month in which we celebrate love, we also want to celebrate healthy hearts.”
‘Hands Over Our Hearts’ will be a fun and relaxing way to get information in the hands of those attending the event. Goodie bags stuffed with heart healthy products, informative pamphlets, and beauty items will be given to those who book in advance. Other information, food, and goodies will be available at both the Carl Street and Polk Street locations.
“We expect a great turn out,” says Leung of the event. “We’ll be inviting our own clients and campaigning throughout the Bay Area to get people to attend.”

Jennifer Leung founded Lavande Nail Spa in 2004 on the principle that everyone deserves to be pampered without breaking the bank. After receiving her Manicurist License, Jennifer conceived of the idea to create a Day Spa that was mid point between a bare bones discount nail shop, and an excessively priced salon. She conceived of a spa-like environment that was clean and decorated with comfortable furniture and relaxing colors, coupled with innovative services and affordable prices. By turning her dream into a reality she believes she has significantly improved the lives of her clients. Jennifer Leung has a bachelor degree in business management and a manicurist license from the California State Bureau of Barbering and Cosmetology.

The name Lavande means lavender in French – lavender and lavender oils are considered to be the ultimate herb for relaxation and spiritual balance. Lavande Nail Spas are located at 113 Carl Street in San Francisco, and 2139 Polk Street in San Francisco.
