All-InForNelly

Aesthetician Nelly Truax has dedicated her long career to providing a healthy glow to her grateful clients, and following a recent major surgery, and in anticipation of many months of intensive chemotherapy, her family of coworkers at Cre8 Salon & Spa are rallying to help Nelly get her own glow back. 

Truax began her career in New York City, and came to Cre8 Salon & Spa in 2006 with more than 30 years of international spa experience, including extensive postgraduate skin and body therapy education. She has become highly sought after for her healing touch and commitment to enhancing every client’s self image. 

Having never been a smoker, Truax’s surprise diagnosis of lung cancer has been devastating emotionally and financially to her family, and precipitated an emergency removal of one of her lungs. A long road of chemotherapy and other interventions lies ahead to help her return to the job she loves and achieve a long, productive, happy life.Truax has a high-deductible health insurance plan, and Cre8 is quickly galvanizing to help provide financial peace of mind to their colleague and her family during this difficult time. 

Cre8 owner Marcy Moreno said, “Nelly is so generous with her gifts, and continuously seeks out ways to go above and beyond for her clients. It’s only natural that her Cre8 family would want to step up and help in any way we can. It’s a no-brainer that we would go ‘all-in,’ and I hope the community will join Nelly in her fight. I’m confident they will.”
