Massage Therapy
Our therapeutic massage combines Swedish, deep tissue, and trigger point techniques to address muscle tension and chronic pain. Practitioners customize sessions using myofascial release and PNF stretching to improve mobility and reduce stress. Each treatment promotes circulation, enhances recovery, and supports overall wellness through tailored pressure and technique selection.
Lymphatic Drainage
Manual Lymphatic Drainage uses gentle rhythmic movements to stimulate fluid circulation and immune function. This specialized technique reduces post-surgical swelling, manages chronic inflammation, and supports detoxification. Sessions incorporate guided lymph movement education to enhance treatment benefits and promote long-term systemic health.
Health Consultation
One-hour consultations assess sleep patterns, activity levels, and stress management strategies to create personalized wellness plans. Practitioners provide actionable recommendations for lifestyle modifications that improve energy levels, sleep quality, and overall health outcomes through behavioral changes and targeted interventions.
Mineral Makeup
Our curated product selection features mineral-based cosmetics and skincare solutions from ColoreScience and iS Clinical. These formulations provide sun protection, skin rejuvenation, and anti-aging benefits while maintaining non-toxic, dermatologist-tested ingredients that complement all skin types and conditions.
Stretch Therapy
PNF and Thai-style stretching sessions improve range of motion and posture through assisted stretching techniques. Each session combines muscle activation and relaxation phases to enhance flexibility, reduce injury risk, and alleviate tension patterns that contribute to chronic pain and movement limitations.

I had lipo and a TT and Christina's lymphatic massage was EVERYTHING! she was so nice and I get super comfortable with her. The experience was relaxing and helps with the healing process after such an intense surgery. she had the most perfect touch soft and gentle yet effective at getting those nodes circulating. If you have plastic surgery definitely hit up Christina you'll be so happy.
