The Facial Experience
Are you ready for something different?
Thoughtfully chosen skincare and restorative facial massage come together to renew your skin, release deep facial tension, and create an experience unlike a traditional facial.
A massage therapist's approach to skincare.
After more than seven years as a massage therapist, I stepped into skincare with a different perspective.
Most facials focus primarily on the skin. My approach begins with the understanding that your skin is connected to everything beneath it—your stress levels, sleep, hydration, nervous system, circulation, and the patterns of tension you carry every day.
That's why my facials begin where tension often starts.
Why Holistic
Holistic skincare looks beyond the surface. Your skin doesn't exist in isolation—it's influenced by stress, sleep, circulation, hydration, movement, and the nervous system. When we support the body as a whole, the skin is better able to function, repair, and thrive.
Massage as Skincare
As a massage therapist, this is where my approach differs from most facials. The face, jaw, scalp, and neck hold tension just like the rest of the body. Through facial massage, sculpting techniques, lymphatic support, and buccal work, we help restore movement, circulation, and ease to tissues that may have been holding stress for years.
Thoughtfully Chosen Skincare
While the heart of my work is hands-on, the products matter too. I use a curated collection of botanicals, oils, hydrosols, enzymes, and nutrient-rich ingredients chosen to support the skin barrier without unnecessary complexity. My goal is to nourish and support the skin, not overwhelm it.
Nervous System Support
The skin often reflects what is happening internally. Stress can show up as tension, dullness, inflammation, and fatigue. When the nervous system settles, the body shifts into a state of rest and repair. Clients often notice softer features, brighter eyes, and healthier-looking skin, not because we forced change, but because we created the conditions for it.
My Philosophy
I believe healthy skin comes from overall body support.
Every treatment is designed to help you feel deeply cared for while giving your skin and body the nourishment, movement, and attention it needs to thrive.
The Experience
Skincare is an important part of every treatment. My goal is to deeply cleanse, nourish, and support the skin without disrupting its natural barrier.
Each facial begins with a house-made oil cleanser designed to create a grounding moment and help you settle into relaxation. This is followed by an enzyme-based powdered cleanser, mixed fresh for each treatment, that gently cleanses and exfoliates without stripping the skin.
Throughout the facial, I use simple, nutrient-rich ingredients including botanical hydrosols and custom masks blended with whole herbs. Moisturizers, serums, and treatment products are selected from organic, small-batch companies to support healthy, resilient skin.
Facial massage extends beyond the face, incorporating the chest, neck, scalp, jaw, and shoulders to encourage circulation, support lymphatic flow, and help release deeply held tension. The goal is not only glowing skin, but a softer, more rested version of yourself.
For clients looking to continue their results at home, personalized skincare recommendations and home care routines using Oliveda products are also available.
The purpose of this work is simple: healthy, supported skin paired with an experience that leaves you feeling deeply cared for, restored, and renewed.
