“Bree and Grace are incredible! I have a rare condition that effects the skin on my neck. I’ve been seeing Bree for almost 2 years now as the results from the LED therapy, plus facials and education on skincare has me glowing and has stripped years off how I look. I get compliments all the time and am so grateful for the care and attentiveness I receive each visit. Their focus on education to benefit their clients is wonderful and yet are hands down the best beauty therapists I have ever come across!”

“Today I was treated to a facial and massage and it was amazing!! Thank you Bree for letting me snore politely without judgement, recommending some great products that will help me feel and look younger than my ‘work in hospitality’ years suggest, and really just making me feel relaxed and lovely. Super recommend these guys!”
