A
native of Poland, Krsytyna Ejsmont studied economics at Warsaw
University after obtaining her cosmetology license. At the age
of 30 she emigrated to Michigan with her husband Ziggy and their
first daughter, in search of a better life. When she arrived
in America Krystyna had only $200 and a dream: to open her own
European-style spa.
Krystyna
and her family embraced the American way of life and lost no
time making her mark. After arriving in Detroit, Krystyna took
English and accounting classes and worked for a time as a bookkeeper.
Still in pursuit of her dream, she found work at a Birmingham
spa, where she quickly became one of the citys most sought-after
aestheticians.
After
years of hard work, Krystyna has realized her ambition to create
a peaceful retreat in which she combines aesthetic treatments
with health and relaxation therapy. She continues the great tradition
of European spas in America by offering her clients the best
products and treatment technology from around the world.
Krystyna
attributes her success to her ability to nurture relationhips,
capacity to give and accept wise counsel, formidable work ethic
and relentless quest for perfection. She stays in shape by practicing
yoga several times a week. Krystyna relaxes by cooking, reading
and sailing with her family. She and Ziggy live with their younger
daughter (their elder daughter is a chemical engineer), her dog
Popcorn and cat Gepetto.
