Your local escape.

Inspired by Costa Rica

5/5/2018

As many of you know, I just returned from an incredible vacation in Costa Rica. I basked in the sun, surfed the ocean, waterslided backwards into the hot springs, hiked the jungle, ziplined above the cloud forest, stayed at the base of a steaming volcano, came face to face with friendly (and not so friendly) wildlife, AND I brought back Costa Rican volcanic mud to share with you all.

I've created a new facial inspired by the best natural elements Costa Rica has to offer. This purifying facial includes misted sea minerals, a hand-blended coffee and coconut scrub, mango infused face, neck, shoulder, arms and hand massage, and the signature volcanic mud mask that will transport you to your own private jungle escape in minutes. The many benefits of volcanic mud can include:

  • cell regeneration
  • oxygenation
  • remineralizing (potassium, magnesium & silicon)
  • exfoliating
  • anti-inflammatory
  • natural antiseptic
  • purifying
  • analgesic​

It's more than a facial, it's an EXPERIENCE. For just $60 you can get your own taste of Costa Rica. I also have plenty of stories I brought back with me from the lovely country if you're interested in hearing more about it. Check out some of the breathtaking landscapes below:
And just for fun, I created a rainforest essential oil diffuser blend to immediately bring the freshness of the jungle to any room in your house. You can contact me to order any of these oils.

Super Bowl LII & Cupping Therapy

2/4/2018

1 Comment

 
What does Super Bowl have to do with cupping you ask? A couple of things actually. For starters, did you know that Patriots Linebacker James Harrison spends over $350,000 a year employing specialists who help manage the punishment his body endures? One of his specialists is a massage therapist that uses cupping to reduce muscle soreness. Harrison states, "Before I get treated, I HURT, and after, I feel better." Today he will step onto the field as the oldest defensive player in professional football. He's obviously doing something right.

Secondly, while most of you were getting ready for Super Bowl LII today, I spent the day taking a level 2 cupping class learning specific treatment techniques for common shoulder conditions such as:
  • frozen shoulder
  • impaired range of motion
  • pain inside the shoulder joint
  • tennis elbow
  • shoulder pain accompanied by pins, needles, tingling, burning or numbness radiating down the arm and/or up into the neck
This is just the tip of the iceberg for me. In time I will become a resource in the community for cupping therapy. I'm thoroughly sold on the therapy for moving out stagnation from the body so new biochemistry has a chance to nourish affected areas. And even though the temporary marks cupping can leave on the skin look brutal, it doesn't feel brutal at all. In fact I nearly fell asleep while my partner was working on me.

Are you interested in trying out cupping for yourself? Awesome! You can add cupping therapy for $10 to any of your massages at Daybreak Spa Studio. Or I have a detox massage that already incorporates cupping into the treatment if you really want to flush your system. Let me know if you have any questions.

Watch more about cupping here in an interview with Amber my instructor:

Stunning Solar Eclipse 2017

I have a thing for the sun as you can probably tell from my business logo. During the Spring of 2015, I took my boys to Sunriver Observatory to look at the sun through special telescopes. It was extremely fascinating seeing the sun's live atmosphere and gases emitting from the surface. After the viewing the staff volunteer asked where we were from and became very excited to know we were from Madras. He told me that we would be in prime position for the total solar eclipse of 2017. He said that NASA would be coming to Madras and thousands of visitors to see it. That's the first I'd heard of it. Then shortly after that, one of the resorts I worked for sold out completely for the eclipse by a Japanese tour group. So my anticipation has been building for over two years.

There has been a lot of excitement and energy surrounding our community in the years, weeks, and days leading up to this phenomenal event. Today I finally experienced why. You can't truly appreciate it unless you see it with your own eyes. One lady described viewing the eclipse as if she were experiencing the breath of God. I think that could justly describe the feeling that passed over my skin and through my body during the two minutes of totality. I myself was speechless. Here are the photographs I was fortunate enough to capture of this wonder of nature. I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did.

Stay Beautiful Out There...

I'm so happy to finally have the sun shining again. We all love the sun right? But the sun just loves to give us premature wrinkles and age spots. May is skin cancer awareness month. And did you know that Central Oregon has one of the highest new skin cancer rates in the country? Go on out there and keep loving that sun. Just remember to use protection. Slather on your sunscreen friends. It makes a HUGE difference (see video below). Just a friendly reminder from your neighborhood Esthetician.

So now that I've convinced you to put on your sunscreen, here's a good way to select it:

Don't forget to reapply. Stay beautiful out there friends!

I built this spa for YOU!

2/17/2017

After working at resort spas, day spas, and an athletic club spa, I decided to open my own spa studio in order to offer luxurious spa services at affordable prices.  One of the frustrations I ran into while working for other companies was a lack of being able to provide all the little "details" that make up a quality spa treatment without being expected to charge more. Another frustration was that the services were so expensive that it was hard for clients to come in as often as they needed to.  But by bringing it all together into my own spa, I'm now able to offer more care with each service at less of a cost to my wonderful clients. More care, less cost.

The evolution of the studio was dramatic. What started as a bonus/storage room with forest green carpet and bright orange walls has evolved into a therapeutic spa sanctuary I'm so proud to share with you. Thank you all for your support. You are VERY appreciated. I look forward to relaxing you when you come in for your next escape.
