Natural Awakenings Health & Wellness Expo
Sunday, October 23, 2011
With the holidays approaching, the Natural Awakenings Health & Wellness Expo 2011 Fall Show will offer a head start on shopping with health in mind on Wednesday, November 2, 2011, 5:30 to 9 p.m., at the Hilton Stamford Hotel, 1 First Stamford Place, Stamford, Conn. Visitors will find healthy products for the home, natural foods, vitamins, personal care goods and services and more, plus packages from fitness centers and spas – all potential gifts for friends and family this year.
The expo will feature over 75 exhibits covering alternative medicine, integrated nutrition, spa and beauty treatments, pet wellness, holistic dentistry, homeopathy, chiropractics, acupuncture, reflexology, herbal medicine, biofeedback and more. On stage, there will be fitness, yoga and dance demos by trainers, clubs and studios, as well as cooking tips and healthy hair presentations.
Exhibit highlights include Becker Salon of Greenwich, also a support sponsor, which will feature demonstrations of its ammonia-free balayage highlighting technique and introduce a new vegan hair smoothie and mineral makeup. Digestive health coach and personal chef Mindy Kannon of Stamford will introduce her new Gluten-Free Club and Groovin’ Through the Holidays, a telecoaching program for women to stay happy, healthy and stress less during the holidays, while Whole-Body Dentistry of Trumbull will show how an integrative and holistic approach to dentistry can benefit the whole patient, and not just teeth. And for pets, Petco will showcase Natural Balance pet food products and provide nutrition information to keep animals healthy.
“This show will be like a holiday boutique focusing on health,” said James Parker, co-chairman of the board of the Greenwich Young Professionals Group, host of the expo. “It’s a great opportunity for all of us to gear up for the New Year on a healthy track.”
