So many reasons to have a combined facial and custom massage with hot stone therapy?

Every day our emotions lie deeply within our face that sees the world through our eyes and yet everyday we are required to keep the mask of friendliness or diplomacy whether it is how we feel or not, our inner emotions cannot tie into day to day reality unless it is with our trusted family and friends.  Even then the demands of life in 2025, would not allow for it.

A real holistic facial allows you to release stress area points through marma points (ayurveda) quite akin to acupuncture points but more gentle with a reiki energy feeling.  It is absolutely true,  that 85 percent of our clients,  will let go visibly, through these points and can be proven with a photo if one wishes so.

Facials also include lymphatic drainage, which is great and recommended by most doctors after surgery. We do recommend it for releasing stress, moving bloating away from eye areas and fatty chin, for instance, and into the natural fluid draining areas away from the face, to help with dark circles under the eyes and fluid retention in the face.

We also include a complimentary initial analysis which will show you the dry/or oily areas of the face, sun damage and more allowing you to work with us on a monthly basis to create a cohesive plan for your beautiful skin while also working with your integrative doctor on any issues.  We do take health insurance and have a good communication with our doctors when needed. The analysis is done in a dark room so we can see the corrective path, holistically for your unique beauty.

Our mantra has always been "Liberate your inner beauty through Holistic Health and Wellness".  While this may be easy for some, we are here to guide you earnestly.

We have seen through our 20+ years, skin go from dimpled large pores, to smooth and youthful through our custom spa therapies.  We also have created our own spa facial products, a full line that works in conjunction with our favorites such as Epicuren, really emphasized this line, since they use enzymes and pure remedies that works well with our therapeutic aromatherapy and herbal products.

How does the massage & facial work?

Your spa therapist will warm the stones in water until they are within the precise temperature range of between 120 and 130 degrees Fahrenheit.

A hot stone massage may begin with a traditional Swedish massage technique to prepare your muscles. Your spa therapist will then place the warm stones on key acupressure points on your body. The stones warm and relax your muscles, allowing deeper pressure to be applied during your massage.

Most massages will usually begin with you face down which allows time for you to take care of the body issues and then when face up, you begin to unravel the stress of the face, with hot towels, aromatherapy steam, scrub, and mask.

We then do healing massage to the body, neck, head, arms and legs. Massage & reflexology are including while applying the hot stone massage therapy. Avoid eating a heavy meal or drinking alcohol prior to the treatment.

The origins of hot stone therapy can be traced back to over 2,000 years ago, when the Chinese used heated stones more than 2,000 years ago as a means of improving the function of internal organs. You can read more about the history of stone therapy on our blog.
