At the opening of her Aura Wellness and Spa in its first location in Marikina City along Marcos Highway, Ella V was joined by Katya Santos, Maui Taylor, Sheree Bautista, Andrea del Rosario, Jaycee Parker, and Zara Lopez. The ladies even did the popular Bulaklak dance for the guests.

"Sana kaya pa ng powers natin," smiled Katya.

Ella, who has been based on the US West Coast with her family for nearly two decades now, was here three years ago to test the waters. "We changed our plans into this setup now," Ella said. "We don't want to offer expensive machines."

They are looking for possible franchises in the south or Makati. "I know this is kind of far, but hopefully, we can branch out by next year."

The challenge that Ella encountered from the start was to make her Aura Wellness Spa "unique" than the others. "We want to be unique from any other spa. We offer non-invasive treatments and our therapists do the services in an excellent way."
