I had my first session with Lisa just yesterday. The studio is in old town Leesburg, just down the street from the main shopping district. There's a small lot right behind her studio, but there's also municipal parking one block away, which is where I parked. Even with the freezing temperatures, it didn't feel like a far walk to go. Her studio is on the bottom floor of a converted house, like many of the shops in old town. It was dark out when I got to the building so the steps leading down were a little difficult to find, but the moment my foot touched the first step, they were flooded with light so I could easily navigate the few steps down to the front entrance.
Organic Plum shares space with several other practitioners, but it is well appointed space and not crowded. As this was my first appointment, Lisa took the time to meet with me and discuss my skin care routine, taking care to list any allergies or sensitivities. She didn't rush me to get started on the actual facial, letting me relax and warm up and rehydrate.
The treatment room itself was spacious, clean and quiet. I probably could have fallen asleep if a soft knock hadn't announced Lisa's presence. Since I was ready I told her to come in and we got started.
I've had quite a few facials in the last few years, but hands down, this was the best I've experienced. The products Lisa uses, all organic, smell good, feel fantastic, and even the next morning my skin still feels fully hydrated as a result of their use.
After it was over, we met back in her front office space to chat, and again, I never felt rushed to move on. She offered tea, but I preferred water, which she gladly provided. The price I paid was more than worth it, and far less than I've paid in the past at other establishments. I'm very much looking forward to my next appointment after the holidays. read more
