Healing Beauty

Ancient wisdom teaches us that vitality—not youth—is the essence of glowing skin.

Healing beauty is the integration of aesthetic renewal with the body’s innate capacity to heal. It moves beyond surface-level appearance to work with the body - restoring circulation, releasing stagnation, and activating regenerative mechanisms. It recognizes beauty as inseparable from health, peace, and self-acceptance.  While some treatments are offered as independent sessions, they are intended to be used integratively and  in such a way that they build on one another over time.  Learn more about the treatments and individual modalities below.

  • Facial Rejuvenation - also known as Cosmetic Acupuncture - calls on ancient wisdom and technique for skin rejuvenation. It reduces signs of aging by lifting the fascia to combat sagging, toning muscles, reducing muscle tension, moving stagnant lymph accumulation, increasing circulation for nourishment and detox, and promoting collagen production. These treatments additionally harmonize the nervous system to reduce stress and regulate internal homeostasis for the increased adaptability and resiliency that is the at the root of internal and external vibrancy.

    Fine single-use sterile stainless-steel needles are used on the body and face for both systemic and local treatment.

  • Facial Radiance was created to offer the benefits of healing beauty to those who want to work preventatively. It is appropriate for any age, but is less intensive than a Facial Rejuvenation session. The treatments are about half gua sha and half facial needling followed by 25 minutes of rest with the needles under the Celluma Pro

  • Microchanneling—the next evolution of microneedling—is a minimally invasive treatment that creates precise micro-channels in the skin to initiate a regenerative healing cascade. This cascade stimulates collagen and elastin production with less overall disruption to the tissue than traditional microneedling.

    Procell’s advanced serums, rich in growth factors, peptides, and stem cells, enhance this process by supporting optimal healing and rejuvenation. The result is smoother texture, diminished fine lines, more even tone, and a restored luminosity that reflects true skin health.

    A series of 4–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart is recommended to achieve cumulative, long-lasting results. Microchanneling naturally complements the deeper, systemic benefits of cosmetic acupuncture.

  • Gua Sha Facial Fusion™, developed by Cecily Braden, weaves together Traditional Chinese and Traditional Thai Medicine. An integration of manual modalities focuses on the soft tissue and fascial network of the face and neck to unwind the tissue, restore mobility, and create space for the optimal flow of blood, oxygen, lymph, and nutrients.  This clears the skin of stagnation and accumulation in the channels, renews the lymphatic system, activates circulation, and stimulates cell activity leading to the regeneration of the facial tissue

    Gua Sha Facial Fusion™ can be received independently, but is often integrated into all cosmetic treatments.

a little bit of alchemy

Tuning forks, flower essences, astrology, and more. 

These more abstract frequency and archetypal modalities support the energetic relationship to our bodies and how we frame our place in this world.  It is the space between mystery and medicine. Cultivating how we relate to beauty in our lives moves beyond what we see in the mirror to how we experience and frame life. 

These alchemical tools help to shape how we inhabit our bodies. How we feel in our physical form is what creates a true sense of home within the body that carries the story of who we are.

Cosmetic Acupuncture

Cosmetic Acupuncture calls on ancient wisdom and technique for skin rejuvenation. It reduces signs of aging by lifting the fascia to combat sagging, toning muscles, reducing muscle tension, moving stagnant lymph accumulation, increasing circulation for nourishment and detox, and promoting collagen production. These treatments additionally harmonize the nervous system to reduce stress and regulate internal homeostasis for the increased adaptability and resiliency that is the at the root of internal and external vibrancy.

Gua Sha Facial Fusion

Celluma PRO is an advanced, light therapy that uses clinically validated wavelengths of blue, red, and near-infrared light to rejuvenate and restore the skin. By stimulating cellular energy (ATP) within the mitochondria, it enhances fibroblast activity and supports collagen and elastin synthesis—key elements in maintaining skin’s structure and vitality.

This treatment helps refine texture, soften fine lines, and restore clarity, while reducing inflammation and accelerating recovery.

Celluma light therapy is standard in all cosmetic acupuncture and microchanneling treatments.

Cupping & DRY needling

One of the hidden roots of facial aging in the modern world is musculoskeletal tension of the neck and shoulders.  To restore proper neck posture, promote circulation of blood and lymph fluid to and from the face, and address nervous system regulation, we sometimes need to look beyond face. At a practical level, tight in the neck functionally pulls down on the face creating a drawn look in the face and tight bands of muscle in the neck. Additionally, the neck is the bottleneck highway between the head and the rest of the body along with blood, lymph, and neural pathways travel.

Addressing tension in the neck and shoulders is central to caring for the face.

Celluma Light Therapy

MLD is a light-touch bodywork that reduces inflammation and accelerates waste removal from the tissue through a series of rhythmic stretching movements. This supports the transportation of vital nutrients and oxygen to the cells, improving overall health and function. These treatments support the immune system, regulate the nervous system, address pain, and decrease systemic inflammation.  Healthy lymphatic flow is critical in preserving the skin's vitality. 

Independent MLD treatments are ideal for those struggling with puffiness, acne, and sinus congestion.

Cranio-sacral therapy

Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on bodywork that releases tension within the central nervous system through subtle, sustained touch. By working with the craniosacral rhythm, this treatment helps restore balance, improve fluid circulation, and enhance the body’s natural healing processes.

These treatments help calm the mind, reduce stress, and improve overall function by allowing the body to shift out of survival mode and into a state of repair. Healthy craniosacral flow is essential for maintaining neurological and emotional well-being.

Independent Craniosacral Therapy sessions are ideal for those experiencing headaches, TMJ dysfunction, stress-related tension, and nervous system dysregulation.
