Enzymes

Enzymes resolve dead skin cells revealing healthy soft skin. The small molecular structures allow for an easy absorption through the skin giving it a soft, smooth texture.

Chemical Peels

Dissolves damaged aged skin cells, imageminimizes lines and brightens skin. Chemical Peels can smooth your skin tone and texture while creating a fresh, healthy looking appearance. The active ingredients in our peels have the ability to stimulate the skin which in turn, reduces fine lines, age spots and wrinkles.

Mellasma - Hyper-pigmentation

Mellasma must be addressed if you want to rid your skin of unwanted discoloration. Cleansers can encourage rapid cellular turnover to reveal fresh, healthy skin.  Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Co-Q10 peptides are an excellent anti-aging serum that provides the skin with a boost in brightening, cellular repair, hydrating qualities that soften the skin and give the skin a glow. Home care products should be incorporated into your daily regimen.

Acne Reducing Treatments

Acne reducing treatments eliminate impurities, exfoliate, and promote cellular turnover to help enhance the skin's overall appearance.  Acne in Traditional Chinese Medicine refers to internal body heat which occur due to the food you eat and the lifestyle you live.  I will look at your  tongue, discuss your diet and create a customized lifestyle treatment plan. The goal is to eliminate internal body heat, so that you may live an acne-free lifestyle. 

Ultrasound Refinishing Treatment

Ultrasonic waves shake and loosen dead skin cells without causing skin irritation. The ultrasonic waves have the ability to stimulate collagen production and enhance your skin's appearance.

Therapeutic Back Facials

Depending on your skin type and skin care needs, there are many benefits of a back facial. Cleansing and exfoliating the skin, clearing clogged pores, enhancing dry skin, or simply cleansing the back and moving energy along the spine has the ability to create an amazing, rejuvinating body balancing effect.

During a back facial, your back will be cleansed and exfoliated with scrub to rid the skin of dry dead skin cells, providing easy removal of black heads and white heads.

Skin Script RX is a professonal skin care line used to enhance the overall appearance, texture and tone. Hot stones and Acupuncture are an additional alternative to a holistic back facial.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine the cervicals, thoracics and lumbar vertebrae (aka Huatojajias) are connnected to our internal organs and have the ability to enhance and remove energy blocks providing homeostasis. The Huatojajias have the ability to move and transform energy through the internal meridian pathways deep within the body. 

Cupping, Gua Sha, hot stones and acupuncture are additional therapeutic methods used during a back facial which stimulate, relax and increase overall body wellness.

If you are experiencing back pain, tension, muscle tightness, tingling or discomfort in your neck, upper back, mid-back or lower back, you are an excellent candidate for a therapeutic back treatment.
