Introducing Galina Cupples

Dunagan Yate & Allison Spa #1
My trips to the spa at Dunagan Yates & Alison Center for Aesthetic Arts always seem so thrilling and luxurious. I loved my massage and chocolate body wrap the last time I visited. I was so busy enjoying myself, taking photos and asking questions, that I didn't get a chance to check out their skin care offerings. When I mentioned this in passing to their office manager, she told me I should come in and give their spa facial a try. I didn't have to be asked twice (okay, so I begged!), so I made an appointment with Russian-born and trained, licensed esthetician Galina Cupples.

I've had many facials over the last couple years, so I was sure I knew what to expect. Not so--this facial was like no other! Galina was a doctor of general medicine in Russia. She then became interested in dermatology and cosmetology and took courses to be licensed in those fields. She is very health-conscious and believes that the face is like a mirror and that our skin is a result of a combination of what we eat and our lifestyle.

My consultation before the facial included a comprehensive look at my health and physical concerns. I pointed out to Galina that her educational experience is the complete opposite of training in the United States. Most doctors aren't licensed estheticians!
