Olivia Newton-John will make a special appearance at Curves of Wahiawa on October 23, 2008 at 6:00 - 8:00 p.m.. No, not in person, but on DVD -- along with Curves founder Diane Heavin and world-renowned breast cancer surgeon Dr. Ernie Bodai -- in an informal and educational video filmed exclusively for Curves.
The women's fitness chain is no stranger to the fight against breast cancer -- having raised millions for the cause -- but this year they're taking it a step further by helping women exercise good breast health through a partnership with Newton-John and the Liv Aid.
The Liv Aid is an ingenious breast self-exam tool that greatly enhances a woman's ability in detecting an abnormality, which in many cases will lead to early detection and a better chance for a cure, according to Ernie Bodai, M.D., F.A.C.S. Curves of Wahiawa has been giving free Liv Aids to members and non-members all month long.
"Being a breast cancer 'thriver,' I know that early detection is key to good breast health," says Newton-John, whose cancer was diagnosed in 1992 and who is now cancer-free.
In addition to Newton-John's video message, Curves of Wahiawa Girl's Night In event will feature a Massage therapist, make-up artist, and serveral other women in business offering free services on that night. Please RSVP by 18 October 2008..
Girl's Night In is open to members and non-members alike and will include a variety of ways for attendees to obtain free and discounted Liv Aids. To help Liv Aid recipients remember to use them, they can sign up to receive complimentary monthly email alerts from Newton-John.
"Girl's Night In is going to be a fun, educational community event -- one that you're going to want to bring all your girlfriends to," said Gina M. Richardson, owner of Curves of Wahiawa, located at 935 California Avenue #A-4. "We'll be able to show women how the Liv Aid works and talk about how maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise can significantly decrease cancer risk."
