I love this beauty salon at Willunga. I always come away feeling thoroughly pampered. They provide the full range of luxury treatments but I generally only have a facial and occasionally a pedicure/manicure. The girls there are lovely and very welcoming. I go once a month and they are always thrilled to see me. A fun place to go. I highly recommend their staff, especially Angela.

This is a great full family care medical practice located in the heart of McLaren Vale. They specialise in women and childrens' health needs and the staff are very friendly and caring. I have been going there for over a year and have always come away feeling well attended to and looked after. Parking is easy and they bulk bill Health Card holders. My husband also goes there now because they cover sports medicine.

Michael from Vertex provided us with a scaffolding service when we were having ceiling fans installed in our home, which has cathedral ceilings of over 5 meters high. We only had to hire the scaffolding for one day and the work was done without any damage to our home. We were highly impressed with Michael and his hire company.

A good chiropractic service with several practitioners on board. I have been using McLaren Vale chiropractic for onoing neck and back problems and they provide a caring, quality service. Their initial consultation was thorough and very reassuring. I always feel great when I leave the practice and look forward to my fortnightly visits. Very caring and unintrusive.

I have been having my hair cut and coloured at McLaren Vale Hair and Beauty for nearly a year now and am very happy with the results. I used to only visit city salons, but I have been pleasantly surprised with McLaren Vale Hair. They use the latest techniques and products and the girls are just lovely. Highly recommended for cut and colour service.

I have been taking my two sons to Kissable Dental for nearly a year now. They have had some minor dental problems plus several standard checkups and I am very impressed with their caring and professional services. My kids don't love going to the dentist, but Kissable makes it a little more fun for them and is very unclinical in feel. Highly recommended for local families.

Sally Wise is a trained acupuncturist, masseuse and also does kinesiology. Sally gives the very best therapeutic massages and my family has benefited from her acupunture. Sally has been able to alleviate the chronic problems I have had with my neck. Best of all, I get a rebate from my Health Fund whenever I visit Sally or when she comes to my home. Recommended.

ABC Office Services provided a full and professional resume and cover letter for my husband who recently changed jobs. He provided them with the information, but they constructed a really professional resume that was up to date and very credible. I think that it certainly helped him secure his current position. Recommended.

Ian Hunter Tax Consultants came to our home and prepared our 2010/11 Tax returns. they used an electronic lodgement service so we received our refunds very quickly. Our tax affairs were fairly simple, so we were able to get them done at a really cheap price of $85 each. Recommended for anyone who hates doing their own tax. The cost is tax deductable.

We love Dirty Paws. They are very conveniently located and provide a thorough, caring service for dog grooming. Our spaniel is a bit highly strung but he seems to enjoy going to Dirty Paws each month and we are always impressed with the quick, personalised service. They realy care about their doggy clients.
