Jacqui Tomlinson-Smith
MBE, PT, CD(DONA), LCCE, IBCLC
As Cayman first Physical Therapist, consistent community advocate, lactation consultant, Lamaze childbirth educator, Doula, mother, grandmother and well known friend to many. Ms. Jacqui serves as the Director of Beyond Basics Medical Spa and is responsible for the tremendous success of the business.
Being a Baby Boomer herself and with her contacts with so many people and families in Cayman, Jacqui felt that while no one can stop the aging process there should be a way to help people Age Later and Age gracefully and teach them how to take care of their biggest organ, their skin. She researched the various devices that were on the market and determined the elos technology by Syneron was unsurpassed in quality. “Syneron was best for all Fitzpatrick types, it was FDA approved, it was safe and there was minimal or no down time and afforded great results. Jacqui is Laser certified and trained and certified in the use of all the Syneron laser equipment and in all the pharmaceuticals that Beyond Basics carries, as well as certified by Aesthetic Enhancement International Institute by Barbara Jones in Chemical Peels and Microdermabrasions." A true entrepreneur, Jacqui makes every effort to upgrade the aesthetic services on island so that no one will have to travel abroad to receive such treatments. Hence the growth of Beyond Basics once again to accommodate all our staff and clients at one location at Smith Road Plaza. Our new services include the HydraFacial (Facial H2O), Laser Tattoo Removal of all colours, Skin Rejuvenation with Matrix RF and SRA and Hand & Foot Healing Therapies to include Manicure and Pedicures along with new line of hair and body care products in the body spa shop. Our lovely massage and nail rooms can accommodate Mother & Daughter, Couples or Best Friends treatments side by side. |

Amoy Williams
Nail Technician
Amoy was trained at the Leon School of Beauty Culture many years ago in Jamaica and has over 20 years experience in manicures, pedicures including acrylics and gel nails and also waxing.
While new to Beyond Basics Medical Day Spa, having been a resident of Grand Cayman for 17 years, Amoy is no stranger to the nail business in Cayman and has many devoted clients. Amoy says she loves to do acrylic best of all and to work with feet that have been neglected and her greatest satisfaction is getting her clients' feet back in good condition. She has treated many clients with diabetes and takes great care to teach them good foot care.
In her spare time she loves to read especially the Bible and she also does volunteer work at the Fairbanks prison teaching young women to do nails.
Amoy is married and has two adult children.
Amoy is certified by LCN to do Gel Nails - a revolutionary line of light-cured products designed to seal, correct, lengthen and beautify fingernails. The first of its kind in Europe, this system provided a non acrylic alternative to conventional nail cosmetics... providing longer lasting and infinitely more beautiful results without the unpleasant odours or toxins and yellowing. And now Beyond Basics is proud to bring this European beauty secret to Cayman's fingertips through our very experienced nail technician, Amoy.
The LCN ULTIMA ACRYLICS involves a technologically advanced powder/liquid system, a self-hardening approach to acrylics that ensures nail technicians and customers the highest level of durability. ULTIMA ACRYLICS are flexible, will not yellow and nearly odourless compared to traditional, inferior acrylic products.
At Beyond Basics besides the LCN Ultima Acrylics and LCN Gel Nail, Amoy will also be doing regular manicures using a breakthrough innovation by Shellac- a new patent-pending UV3 technology that combines the ease of polish with the permanence of gels- a true innovation in chip-free, extended wear nail color. In all the newest colours, you can now say good-bye to nicks, chips and smudges with Shellac.
But of course Amoy will continue to offer Beyond Basics Signature Manicure and Pedicures using our vegan line of nail lacquers and elixirs by SpaRitual, absolutely odour free and free of all harmful substances and perfectly safe for all pregnant and lactating women.
Call Beyond Basics now and book a truly innovative nail experience with Amoy and expect a flawless, stunning manicure that stands out from the crowd. |
