GIFTYBOX - The Experience Gift - introduces its national "Spa & Well-Being Giftybox", the first all-inclusive Spa Guidebook & Gift Pass combo.

    /24-7PressRelease/ - NEW YORK, NY, August 03, 2007 - Giftybox, "The Experience Gift," is pleased to announce its newest gift-giving opportunity: spa and well-being gifts. The Spa & Well-Being Giftybox is an all-inclusive spa package gift certificate and guidebook that provides the recipient with a highly personalized experience.

Gifts are generally given with the hope of making someone happy. When the gift is the new Spa & Well-Being Giftybox, making them happy also means making them feel good. Because "well-being" can mean different things to different people, Giftybox - the leader in experiential gift-giving - has assembled a wide selection of establishments, practitioners, instructors and coaches to help you find out more about just every kind of well-being there is.

Giftybox is the first all-inclusive, non-dollar driven gift pass that lets the recipient choose the treatment and venue they want. No strings attached; no money to add. It's as easy and convenient as a gift certificate, yet it provides the recipient with a highly personalized experience.

Gift options run the gamut from the hedonistic (a hot stone massage or sea salt body scrub) to the therapeutic (an acupuncture treatment) to the spiritual (a weekend meditation retreat). With its informative guidebook and all-inclusive gift pass, Giftybox makes it easy for the recipient to choose their ideal spa package. And each Giftybox contains a guidebook to keep and refer to year-round.

Giftybox is the perfect solution to the sometimes daunting task of choosing the right gifts. It's elegantly packaged, more personal and informative than a traditional gift card and reflects the thoughtfulness of the giver.

The Spa & Well-Being Giftybox will be released this September in the following US metropolitan areas: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, Philadelphia, San Diego, San Francisco & Bay Area, Seattle and Washington DC.

Two editions will be available: Spa & Well-Being for Women, and Spa & Well-Being for Men. Each will retail for $79. Pair the two and you can treat a couple.

- an all-inclusive Gift Pass for a spa package or well-being treatment at the venue of your choice;

"Giving gifts is one of life's great pleasures. Who wants to announce to someone that they are 'worth' a specific dollar amount? So we created a gift pass that is fun to give and receive, a gift based around interests and great experiences and one that offers choice and flexibility. It's the ultimate gift experience." - Jerome Chasques & Nicolas Caillens, Giftybox founders.
