A Note on Tiered Service Pricing:

Our Entry-level practitioners are talented, knowledgeable individuals looking to gain experience while building their clientele. They have been training in most modalities on our service menu & set aside time for continuing education whether that happens on location or in other areas. Our entry-level service pricing should in no way deter you from scheduling with these practitioners, instead see it as an opportunity to help shape their practice & be one of their founding clients!  Our Advanced practitioners have a few more years under their belt, a more established client list, & more cumulative continuing education. Our Expert level practitioners have several years of experience & limited availability on their schedules. While open to new clients, spaces are more limited. 

Benefits of Skin Brushing

  • **Exfoliation:** Dry skin brushing helps to remove dead skin cells from the surface of your skin, promoting a smoother and more radiant complexion. This exfoliation can also help prevent clogged pores and ingrown hairs.​

  • **Stimulates Circulation:** By gently brushing your skin in circular motions, you can stimulate blood flow to the surface, which may help improve circulation and lymphatic drainage. This can reduce the appearance of cellulite and promote detoxification.

  • **Enhances Skin Health:** Regular dry skin brushing can help your skin absorb nutrients more effectively, leading to improved skin tone and texture. It can also support the skin's natural regeneration process and may help reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks over time.

  • **Relaxation:** The act of dry skin brushing can be a soothing and meditative practice. It can help you unwind, reduce stress, and promote a sense of well-being. Incorporating dry skin brushing into your daily routine can be a simple self-care ritual with both physical and mental benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Body Treatments

  • What is to expect?​

    • Just like other bodywork appointments, you will receive your treatment in a private room. Your practitioner will accompany you to your treatment room and provide you with instructions for getting on the table as well as ask if there are any concerns, etc. that we should be made aware of. ​

  • What should I wear?​

    • Our body treatments are full-body in nature, though you will be professionally draped at all times. The product will be applied to your abdomen unless you request otherwise, and a breast drape will be provided. We do recommend that you indulge in the full body treatment to experience its full benefits. That being said, it is encouraged that you remove every layer of clothing. Clothing items act as a barrier for your practitioner, please remove socks and undergarments and remember you will remain professionally draped at all times. 

    • Inappropriate comments will not be tolerated. If this happens or a client purposefully exposes themselves to the practitioner, the treatment will be ended immediately and you will be asked to leave and not return. Your card will be charged 100% of the treatment price with a 20% gratuity added. We reserve the right to call the police and file a report if this occurs. 

  • Can we diagnose ailments?​

    • ​No. As licensed massage practitioners, we are not able to diagnose or cure medical conditions.

  • Will I be required to shower during or after the treatment?

    • No. Our body treatments are designed to be executed in dry treatment rooms unless otherwise noted. ​

  • Do you have a place for me to shower?

    • While we do have a shower on location, it is not currently set up to be utilized. Hopefully, in the future we can make this happen, but we have too many things we are trying to work out first!​
