Addressing the complex needs of their clientele, aestheticians rejuvenate and polish even the most sensitive skin.

Many services are paired with spa packages, but they can also be provided individually as well. 


Just a few of the services aesthetician’s offer include: 


  • • Microdermabrasion 

  • • Moisturizing Treatments 

  • • Facials 

  • • Hair Removal 

  • • Aromatherapy

October 15 - National White Cane Safety Day

 

Happy National White Cane Safety Day! on October 15, this day annually celebrates the achievements of people who are blind or visually impaired.  


This day also marks the importance of recognizing the white cane. The white cane is not only a tool. It also represents the independence of those who are blind worldwide.  


This day has been set aside to celebrate all of the achievements of people who are blind or visually impaired, and the principal symbol of blindness and tool of independence, the white cane. 


While technological advancements continue to improve the lives of the blind and visually impaired, the white cane continues to be a basic necessity for leading an independent and productive life.  


The white cane extends a person’s senses allowing them to determine steps, unlevel pavement, and obstacles. But it also provides a level of safety as a signal to the seeing public.  


It’s important not to disrupt the path of someone with a white cane or to steer them in another direction. A skilled user allows the cane to find the clearest way. 


HOW TO OBSERVE 


The best way to provide assistance is by keeping aisles and doorways clear of boxes and other debris is one good first step. 


However, the day primarily focuses on the independence and equality of those with visual impairments.  


Their vision shouldn’t be a hindrance to attaining their goals and dreams, and the white cane symbolizes those achievements.  


Use #WhiteCaneSafetyDay to post on social media. 


HISTORY 


A joint resolution of the U.S. Congress H.R. 753 was signed into law as Pub.L.88-628 on October 6, 1964, and codified at 36 USC § 142.   


The resolution authorized the President of the United States to annually proclaim October 15 as White Cane Safety Day. 


Within hours of the passage of the joint resolution, 36th U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the first proclamation for the observance. 


In 2011, this day was also named Blind Americans Equality Day by 44th U.S. President Barack Obama. 


There is always so much more one can do to make a difference. For more information regarding White Cane Safety Day from the National Federation of the Blind.
