Her extensive training and continued education include intra-oral massage and visceral manipulation work as well as a diploma in organic skin care formulation. "Whether you’ve come for a facial, relaxation, nervous system support, or somatic bodywork, I view your trust as a gift and strive to offer a lovingly curated space to encourage a natural return to self. My approach is holistic, specifically meaning I take your whole being into consideration; hydration, nutrition, sleep habits, movement practices, topical + oral plant medicines, and lifestyle.

I felt a bit embarrassed but both Kieran and Amber assured me it was okay and it's a compliment to the massage therapist knowing they are doing their job in helping their customers feel relaxed :) Getting a massage has been long overdue and I'm so glad I found this place!I can't wait to come back!

I contemplated posting this review because the staff was so fun and kind. However as someone who…read morehas received many facials/lymphatic massages and visited many different spas, I wasn't sure what to make of my experience. I was in search for a lymphatic facial massage as my face often gets puffy and found lifted beauty and wellness online. When I initially booked the appointment it was for a total of 45 minutes for 170$. An hour before my appt time I receive an email saying that the appointment has been moved 20 minutes later and was shortened to a 25 minute appointment at the same cost. The facility is clean and very nice in the middle of madrona area. My skin was not prepped nor cleansed and product was applied directly to the skin without any prep. During the treatment the esthetician left midway to answer a phone call and kept mentioning another service they provide- a skin focused facial that would answer all of my skin needs, not the concern I was visiting the spa for. My appointment had started at 10:20 (time I walked into the building to check in) and at around 10:55 the aesthetician said we were done and I should get dressed. I received my receipt via email at 11:09. Post appointment, I didn't feel like the usual "de-puff" feeling I get when I get a lymphatic facial massage with other spas. I received a discount of 20% for being a new client (check their Yelp page) and was asked if I wanted to schedule the suggested skincare treatment. While I had a great experience getting to know the workers and facility, I don't know if I'll be back.

For prenatal massage, I saw Scarlet. She has great technique, and I didn't feel drained after. I had a good amount of energy.
