FACIAL ENHANCEMENTS

A natural way to sculpt and tone the face; Microcurrent technology applies low-level electrical currents that mirror your body’s own natural currents on a cellular level. These gentle electrical currents stimulate the facial muscles, similar to how exercise impacts the muscles in your body, and help support lymphatic drainage, it’s also believed to support the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) — the molecule that provides energy for all cellular processes, including muscle movement and collagen and elastin production.
As you age, ATP levels and collagen and elastin production naturally decline… and this is a major contributor to visible signs of aging.
So whether you’re managing mature skin or are looking for ways to get serious about preventative care, microcurrent therapy may be able to help address skin concerns and support a more radiant, youthful-looking complexion.

Dermaplaning is a cosmetic treatment that delicately eliminates the uppermost layer of your skin (exfoliation), targeting dead skin cells and undesired "peach fuzz" for a revitalized look. Using a surgical blade, the procedure skims away both the dead skin and fine hairs and helps improve the skin's texture and reduces the appearance of scaring and fine-lines.
The results aim to give smoother skin that not only looks rejuvenated but also encourages the production of new collagen and contributes to a healthier overall complexion.

Prioritizing healthy skin over ‘perfect’ skin with our botanicals first approach.
Skin is alive—it’s our bodies largest organ that carries out many life essential functions without us even thinking about it. One of the lesser known functions of skin is that it has the ability show us that the internal organs might be overburdened via symptoms such as acne, dryness, puffiness, bruising, etc.
Think of the skin as a messenger—the same way that skin can communicate internal health status via external symptoms, there is a whole body health benefit through receiving a facial treatment based on the various acupressure and lymphatic pathways that connect to the internal organs. This is one of the many reasons we prioritize intentional facial massage with a focus on facial acupressure and lymphatic drainage.
In a society that tells that perfect flawless skin is the only acceptable way to have skin… we’re here to help you realize that healthy skin is in fact not perfect but incredibly alive, responsive, and communicative.

“Gretchen is incredibly skilled at her craft. I received a lymphatic facial treatment which was one of the best I've ever had. Her knowledge + practice is multifaceted ranging from plants and herbalism to a deep understanding of the skin, body and massage. As someone who experiences TMJ, I was floored by how much range of motion I had after she worked on my neck, arms and shoulders. This, with the combination of the botanicals that worked their magic on my skin left me glowing from the inside out!”

Whether I am going in for a focused treatment to address hormonal acne or pure self care and relaxation, the results are amazing!
