October is just around the corner, and we’re getting a head start on spreading awareness and encouraging women to prioritize their health.

We’re beyond grateful to the award-winning Serenity In The Mountains Spa in Blue Ridge, GA, for their continued support. To help us kick off this important campaign, Serenity is donating their luxurious Himalayan Trio Package (a $350 value!) to one lucky patient who completes their mammogram at Union General Hospital during the month of October.

This indulgent 3.5-hour experience includes:
✨ A rejuvenating Himalayan Facial
✨ An 85-minute Signature Massage
✨ A 45-minute Salt Cave Session

We’re proud to offer advanced 3D mammography, proven to detect breast cancer more effectively than traditional screenings. A doctor’s order is required to schedule your appointment.

🩷 Huge thanks to Serenity In The Mountains for helping us turn awareness into action and self-care into something truly healing.
