Torn Ranch, the leading wholesale gourmet food and gift purveyor, is making the spa experience sweeter with their new Mind and Body Collection. Designed to complement the luxe spa environment, the collection spins antioxidant and omega-3 rich ‘Superfoods’ that are known to boost skin health and radiance into distinctively decadent treats including Dark Chocolate Blueberry Walnut Clusters, Tea Infused Chocolate Indulgences, and Dark Chocolate Gogi Berry Crunch Clusters.

Torn Ranch, the leading wholesale gourmet food and gift purveyor, is now making the spa experience a little sweeter. The newly released Mind and Body Collection is a suite of all-natural nibbles created with both health and craving in mind to nourish the spa-goers body and pamper their palate.

The premier collection spins antioxidant and omega-3 rich ‘Superfoods’ like dark chocolate, walnuts and blueberries that are known to boost skin health and radiance into distinctively decadent treats including Dark Chocolate Blueberry Walnut Clusters, Tea Infused Chocolate Indulgences, and Dark Chocolate Gogi Berry Crunch Clusters.

Designed exclusively to complement the luxe spa environment, the Mind and Body Collection is candy for the eye and weaves seamlessly into the spa aesthetic. Torn Ranch makes the gourmet confections — designed by their own master chocolatier — at their chocolate-making factory and nut roastery near California’s wine country then wraps each one in tranquil colors and designer boxes that accommodate private label needs.
The Mind and Body Collection is a bit of a departure for Torn Ranch, who primarily caters to the guest amenity needs of high-end, four- and five-star hotels and resorts including Wynn, Four Seasons and Ritz Carlton resorts.
Chief Executive Officer Sue Morrow, who describes the spa line as a natural extension for the company, said,

“The collection is a response to demand from resort spas that are facing new challenges in the crowded marketplace and tightening economy; to remain competitive and increase client loyalty spas must add new programs to their marketing efforts.”

Morrow notes the Mind and Body Collection pampers skin as well as the spa’s bottom line. “The all-natural, preservative-free ingredients we selected for the collection have specific benefits for the skin,” said Morrow. “For example, our Berry Blossom Trail Mix is rich in omega-3 fatty acids that can help moisturize dry skin from the inside out.”

The diversity of the product suite makes it ideally suited to several spa-centric marketing and sales programs that enhance the bottom line. Indulgences from the Mind and Body Collection pair perfectly with spa gift cards — which continue to be a revenue generator for spas despite the overall market downturn.

Sometimes the smallest ‘extras’ can reap real rewards for day spas; treating each guest to an individually wrapped Dark Chocolate Green Tea Bar following a treatment ups the luxe factor of the experience and increases client loyalty. Likewise, a bowl of Chocolate Covered Blueberries or Spa Mix in the reception area provides a quick and healthy boost for guests who are running on empty. Extra guest amenities can also help assuage client frustration when an esthetician is running behind schedule and a treatment is delayed.

Torn Ranch will be spotlighting the Mind and Body Collection at Skin Inc.’s Face & Body conference and expo at the Moscone Center in San Francisco August 17th and 18th.

Personal Genetic Health Helps you to Age Better - Now in Spas

April 19th, 2008

Know Your Personal Genetic Health to Age Better Now!

With National DNA Day on April 25th, Suracell Inc. urges Americans to use their genes to promote healthy aging


At the local drug store, do you stock up on everything touted as “good for you?” Convinced there’s nothing you can do to improve the way you age? Think again, says Suracell, Inc., the pioneer in personal genetic health. With National DNA Day on April 25, Suracell is urging Americans to be proactive about their genetic legacy. By discovering your personal genetic health (PGH) profile through physician-supervised DNA testing, a nutritional supplement and lifestyle plan can be customized specifically for you, so you are not a passive victim of genetic inheritance.


“In today’s world, you take your car to the mechanic, he plugs it into his computer and has enough information to know what’s wrong and how to fix it. DNA testing provides that same window into your body’s health, allowing a medical professional to know how to help you strengthen your genetic make-up,” says Vincent Giampapa, MD, founder of Suracell, renowned anti-aging physician, plastic surgeon and author of five books including the newly released, “The Gene Makeover: The 21st Century Anti-Aging Breakthrough.”

Suracell wants the public to know we can now age better than our predecessors. The company is the first to create a physician-supervised, DNA test available only through a medical, health or wellness center affiliated with Suracell. The test utilizes cheek swab samples and biomarkers that are sent to certified testing laboratories where your Personal Genetic Health (PGH) profile is determined. Once your results are sent back to Suracell, they are reviewed by medical professionals, along with findings from your lifestyle questionnaire. The team evaluates how efficiently your body handles the five key biological processes critical to healthy aging:

– Blood sugar control — Inflammation control — Protection from oxidative stress and resulting free radicals — Optimal gene expression related to cardiovascular health — Normal cellular and DNA repair

The Suracell team then creates your individualized PGH Program, comprised of specific nutritional supplements related to your genetic makeup and unique needs, as well as lifestyle recommendations for healthy aging. Only Suracell emphasizes specific genetic characteristics related to the five key healthy aging processes when developing these personalized programs.

Suracell “Core Nutrition” products can be ordered without DNA testing, while the “Repair” products are included as part of the complete PGH Program.


Suracell’s DNA Analysis kits are available through medical spas, physician offices and wellness centers nationwide.

Patrons at spas run by Spa Team International will soon be able to use Sciona’s genetic testing kits to help structure their diet and nutrition programs, the company said today.

Under a new distribution agreement, Spa Team International will offer Sciona’s GenomicsRX DNA Personalized Genetics Analysis Kits at 1,000 of its spas and medspas around the country.

Customers will submit a swab sample of DNA and a lifestyle questionnaire, and Sciona will use its Sciona Genostic Rules Engines software to analyze 27 specific genes that have links to lifestyle, nutrition, and diet, the company said.

Clients at the spa will receive the results of the analysis, which the company said reflects how the client’s genetic makeup affects food and beverage metabolism, in the form of a 95-page book within about 45 days.

The booklet is used to develop a DNA Nutrition Action Plan, which specific lifestyle and nutritional recommendations.

Bob Solliday, STI co-founder, said the service is expected to “take the guesswork out of the recommendation of nutritional supplements.”
