Meet Carrie
Owner, Esthetician, Waxing Specialist. I’ve had a lifetime passion for the healing arts and a wanderlust that drives me to learn and explore. The first step in my journey was to Karala, India, where I studied Ayurvedic medicine. I then became a CMT and, in 2010, studied Esthetics at Cinta Aveyda in San Francisco. I continue my studies and strive to always learn everything I can about skincare and waxing in all of its components. My studies have combined Eastern, Western, and Holistic approaches to skin health. I feel all styles are important to get the optimum results in keeping the mind, body and spirit healthy and happy.
Meet Jess
Manager, Massage Therapist, Pilates Instructor, Wax Specialist. I began my career in esthetics over a decade ago, which quickly inspired a curiosity of the human body and each of its’ layers and intricacies. I found a special love for waxing because it hosted a unique and sacred container for my clients, wherein we would follow each other through all life brought: love, divorce, death, birth, everything. I became a place of consistency for so many of my clients, our time together was something that they could rely on no matter what came their way. I am so devoted to this process of holding space for those who trust in me, regardless of the modality.
In 2018, I took the next step in my journey and began training at a healing arts school in Oakland, CA and began my bodywork practice in 2021. Through this, I’ve been able to provide healing modalities that reach my clients much deeper than the surface of skin. I enjoy the synergy of blending ancient Eastern practices with explorative, measurable science-based bodywork. I am proudly a forever-student, constantly gaining new skills in my wheelhouse to better hold space for all of my people and their relationships with themselves, their bodies, their skin, their pain, and their healing.
Meet Ferren
Esthetician. I came to find my passion for skin care after massage school and working in a day spa in Calistoga, close to where I was raised. I then attended and graduated from the San Francisco Institute of Esthetics and Cosmetology in 2003 and have been practicing skin care in Northern California ever since. I take pride in making my clients feel comfortable and well cared for through my personable nature and expertise. I am motivated to help clients receive their optimal skin care needs by listening and being detail-oriented. I find joy in being attentive, meticulous, and nurturing in every session.

Meet Jillian
Massage Therapist Specializing in Swedish Deep Tissue. I entered the bodywork profession after many years of seeing how massage transformed my own back and body pain caused by physical injury, but also anxiety and depression. It still blows my mind how intricately the body and mind are connected and how they each effect the other. Massage is very special in that we get the opportunity to effect both at the same time working with the nervous system and tissue. I love learning new techniques and continuing my education not only personally but professionally. Every client is an opportunity to learn and grow. My aim as a massage therapist is to put the client back in touch with their body by identifying and transforming stagnant holding patterns into a more fluid and embodied sense of being.
