  <subtitle>As Melody Johnson and Shirley Lewis enjoyed a relaxing day at the Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay day-spa, they were troubled. They thought it was criminal that many people couldn't afford such an experience. The two women see relaxation not as a luxury but as a crucial, restorative part of life.

    <content type="text">If you're planning on buying a Groupon or Living Social coupon for this so-called spa, don't do it without visiting it first. And be aware that by using the coupon you'll be automatically enrolled as a member and charged a monthly fee. 

They call themselves an affordable way to spa and relax...that means cheap, tacky, cheesy. The foot soak is warm water in a dollar store plastic dishpan. The healthy snacks is spreadable cheese still in the store container and crackers. The decor and furniture looks like it came from a thrift store. The attendants wear jeans and t-shirts. The atmosphere is far from calming or relaxing. The operating hours inconvenient and few. You get what you pay for.</content>

    <content type="text">I absolutely love the concept! They are so right about everyone needing time to relax and their price point rocks! Seeing entrepreneurs like Melody and Shirley go out and start a business based on a vision is always exciting to me. And it sounds like they made the right steps in doing it too.</content>
