Welcome to Aura, much more than your average Beauty Salon. Since we first opened our smaller beauty salon in Bolton next door in 2002 we have come a long way, and can confidently boast the widest range of treatments and services for miles around.
Since winning 'Business of the Year in 2003' we have continued to evolve improving our range of treatments and adding state of the art equipment such as the recent launch of ‘Ellipse IPL' for permanent hair reduction. This is further supported by our recent move next door into this larger building enabling us to cater for more of our 3,000 strong customer database. This new purpose built salon boasts the addition of a designated pedicure section and ‘state of the art' spray tanning facilities in addition to extra treatment rooms all containing adjustable ‘mood lighting' and private shower facilities.
Led by the proprietor Emma Hargreaves, Aura's team of therapists are professionally trained to the highest standards in the industry, across a range of high quality brands including Elemis, Nimue, Kimia, Ellipse, Caci, Ultratone and many more. Aura's services extend to cosmetic and aesthetic treatments such as ‘Wrinkle Fine Line Management' (e.g. Botox) and ‘Teeth Whitening' (‘Beyond White Spa') performed by Fully Qualified Nurse Practitioners. With additional complimentary SPA facilities such as Steam Room and Infra-Red Sauna we aim to provide an experience normally associated with high class hotels.
We believe you deserve a little pampering from time to time and aim to make this possible with the minimum of effort so please read on and plan your experience with Aura . . ‘we love to please you'.
