The KAB Treasured Chest Program is making a huge IMPACT by supporting women recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer. KAB recently had the opportunity to cast at the AMAZING Bergamot Spa in Encinitas. Thanks to Bergamot these women received FREE pampering spa treatments in a nurturing atmosphere.
Many of our castees had wonderful things to say about the experience and we are so thankful to them for letting us be a part of their journey. Susan whom had just finished chemotherapy and says, “I was overwhelmed! it was one of the greatest experiences of my life.”
“Meeting my fellow breast cancer sisters and each of us exchanging our cancer battles to having a Facial and experiencing the new Reconnective Healing treatment and best of all was having my torso casted. I can honestly say this has been one of the most remarkable experiences I’ve had since being diagnosed with breast cancer!”Jeannette
Carrie who was casted after recently had surgeryspoke about the treasured chest program – “kindness, compassion and heartfelt desire to educate others through these casts will continue to resonate within. The pampering at Bergamot Spa after my casting was a sublimely blissful way to reflect upon my journey and peacefully contemplate my overwhelming gratitude for my health and experience with breast cancer”!
Thank you to all the Treasured Chest participants! You continue to inspire us! Thank you to Bergamot Spa for the heavenly location, Francine O Gonzalez for documenting the day with photos, and the Quiksilver Foundation for proudly supporting this KAB program!

We all know that exercise is one of the best ways to stay healthy.

Don’t know how to ride… or want to check out boards specifically made for the ladies? Come on down to Oceanside for a free demo and and clinic.
