The same peeps who brought you the Plane Pal travel pillow are back with yet another travel must-have: a universal waterproof bag especially for strollers!

Made of waterproof nylon, the super compact Pram Pal is great for easily transporting your kiddo’s stroller without getting it wet, dirty or damaged. When not in use, it can even double as an extra large bag to fit your unexpected holiday shopping loot!

We know what you’re thinking, and no, it doesn’t involve any battery-operated help! Spa Esprit’s Super Vibrator treatment is a new-age therapy that uses a combination of massage, scent and sound to help you enter a deeper state of relaxation. The treatment starts with a bio-energy reading, which will determine the recommended customised essential oil blend that will rebalance your energies. To set the mood for the massage, the therapist will create a sound bath using the Tibetan singing bowl, which gives vibrations to send deep hums absorbed by the body. By then, you should be ready to receive all the benefits of the restorative Lomi Lomi massage!
