    'Feel Good Day'

    Willow Glen spa owner Violet Johnson offers free services to residents of local shelter


    As with most Silicon Valley residents, Vanessa Dalcourt will freely attest that life in this fast-paced corner of the world has its own amount of stress. What better way to ease her tension than to receive a therapeutic massage from Violet Johnson, a Willow Glen body specialist who owns Violet Johnson's Wellness Spa. Except that Dalcourt is no typical spa client, she's a homeless woman who resides at the San Jose Family Shelter at 1590 Las Plumas Ave. The free services, called "Feel Good Day," took place in two small rooms at the shelter on March 19. For five hours, Johnson, her husband William, and Linda Atencio and Robin Raymundo of Elite Image, a Lincoln Avenue salon, donated their time and services to shelter residents, doing massage, styling hair and giving away lotions and shampoos.   More
