Lani Wallace
Aesthetician
Welcome to La Belle Amie Day Spa and Salon.
Our French name translates to “Beautiful Friend,” and that is precisely what we strive to be for each and every one of our clients. A true friend enhances your best qualities, allowing your inner beauty to emerge into a healthy self-esteem while providing the freedom to be yourself.
At La Belle Amie, our purpose is to celebrate the beauty that resides within us by creating a nurturing environment to promote relaxation to its fullest. We treat people as our own “beautiful friends” with a level of professionalism and quality of service that serves to achieve this goal.
It is my personal commitment to uphold this mission by continuing my education and consistently providing rejuvenating, high quality spa treatments. I am a clinical licensed aesthetician and certified laser specialist. I received my licensure from the Aveda Institute in Minneapolis in 1994. My first job was at the Aveda Lifestyle Spa in Aspen, Colorado, and I have worked in spas ever since. During the past 16 years I have been certified in skin resurfacing techniques such as peels and microdermabrasion. I offer these services along with customized facials and full body waxing.
Beauty, wellness and skin care are my passions. With my background in ayurvedic principles and my ongoing education in the science of skin care, I blend the best holistic approaches with the newest scientific technology for maximum results.
I live here in Grand Junction with my husband of 16 years, professional fly fisherman, Ted “Mustang” Relihan and Knuckles, Sancho Panza, Lily and Lucy (our pets).
I look forward to hearing from you and creating a long-lasting, beautiful friendship.
Jacquie Lynn Gunderson
Stylist/Permanent Make Up Artist
I have been a working professional Hair Stylist for 43 years, specializing in cutting hair, coloring for both men and women, pedicures, and up-dos for weddings, proms, and other special events. A Board Certified permanent make-up artist, I also specialize in creating beautiful brows, eyeliners and lips.
Moving from Utah, I have resided in Grand Junction for nine years. After working at The Athletic Club, Day Spa and Salon for seven years, I found La Belle Amie as the perfect place for meeting both new and old friends.
My first interest is in making beautiful women more beautiful and men more handsome!
There is a great Downtown energy here at La Belle Amie. I invite you to come see for yourself.
Jill Whinnery
Massage Therapist
I have been practicing Therapeutic and Swedish massage since 1986. I earned a minor degree in Holistic Health along with my Massage Therapy licensure from the Institute of Holistic Studies in Santa Barbara, California. I have since received certificates and training in Thai Yoga Massage and Medical Massage.
I learned to give Spa treatments while working at the world renowned Aspen Club and Spa. I've brought this experience to La Belle Amie where, coupled with the most advanced skin care products available, I provide luxurious, healthy spa treatments in a relaxed and beautiful setting.
The spa treatments are tailored to each client’s specific skin care needs. We are available to consult with our guests and are happy to suggest the most appropriate spa treatment or massage after listening to each person’s unique needs.
Our spa services use the purest, most natural ingredients such as raw algae, clay, mud, salts and fruits. We take our time preparing exfoliating mixtures and masks rather than using prepackaged ones, which are usually full of preservatives and other unnatural additives.
The spa treatments we offer all involve exfoliation, a mask-wrap, and a vitamin-rich hydrating lotion application.
The salt glow exfoliation with a hydrating massage is another popular service that leaves the skin feeling and looking healthy and vibrant. Our massage choices can also be chosen after consulting with the therapist. We offer Therapeutic, Swedish, Hot Stone, and Thai Yoga massage. All involve aromatherapy and are sure to leave you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.
