A pause between.
My approach is closer to a 19th-century herbalist’s parlor than a clinical med-spa. I’m the sole practitioner. You will never be passed off.
A lot of what I do is organic but not all, it is all plant-based. The loudest plants in my practice are holy basil, arnica, calendula, chamomile, yarrow and rose.
Medium warm wood, brass, dark gold, candlelight. The studio looks like the practice feels.
Five registers of care.
