❄️ Weather Update: Heading Out!

I am heading out early today to get ahead of this storm! StubbysWX just sent the alert that snow is approaching, and after my last 2 hour nightmare drive home, I’m not taking any chances.

I am so thankful for all of you, and I’m so sorry I couldn’t get to everyone on my long waitlist today. I have reached out to everyone personally!

The Good News:
• I have openings for next Saturday!
• You can grab a spot via the link in my bio/comments.
Stay safe and warm out there! ☕️✨

Take a hint from the sign in the back: Hope, healing, and a little bit of 'forgetting your tea' because you're finally at ease. 🤍 It's an honor to create this kind of calm for my clients.

🔬THE PRO VIEW: Skin Analysis Deep Dive

Ever wonder why your skin feels tight even after moisturizing? Or why that stubborn redness won't go away? At Michelle's Hidden Spa we don't guess we analyze.

Check out these microscopic captures from our latest analysis. This is what's happening beneath the surface:

• The "Dehydration Grid": Those white, intersecting lines reveal stratum corneum dehydration. When the skin lacks water, it loses its smooth texture and begins to "crack" like a dry desert, leading to premature aging. 🏜️

• Vascular Mapping: The red mottled patches are signs of capillary activity and inflammation. This tells us the skin's barrier is compromised and needs calming, restorative care. 🍎

• Cellular Buildup: Those tiny white flecks are micro scaling dead skin cells that are stuck on the surface, blocking your expensive serums from actually soaking in! 🧼

Why this matters: You can't treat what you can't see. By using this technology, I can customize a treatment plan that targets your skin's exact needs, not just what we see in the mirror.

You learn a lot in 19 years of hands on work! 🎓💆‍♂️

Since it’s my "work-versary" month, I wanted to share the top 3 things I’ve learned after nearly two decades in the treatment room:

✅Consistency is key. Whether it's your daily SPF or your monthly massage, the small habits add up to the biggest results!

✅Self-care isn't selfish. It is essential maintenance for the only body you've got. You can't pour from an empty cup.

✅Listen to your skin (and your muscles). They usually tell you exactly what they need long before you get on my table!

It has been an absolute honor serving you all for 19 wonderful years.

Why I’m "Dreaming of Panera" (and why it’s actually a good sign for your health!) 🧠✨

I’ve been testing out the Moongate app’s Theta beats with my sleep earbuds lately, and let’s just say the REM cycle is hitting HARD. The only side effect? Extremely specific, weird dreams. 😴

Last night, I dreamed I was at Panera and Johnny Galecki (Leonard from Big Bang Theory) was taking my order because his acting career "didn't work out." I was literally calling my mom in the dream like, "You have to get down here, the guy from Roseanne is making my sandwich!" 🥪🤣

💡 THE WELLNESS TIP: While the dream was hilarious, there’s a reason it happened! REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep is when our brains process emotions, clear out toxins, and consolidate memories. Vivid dreams even the weird ones involving sitcom stars and sourdough are often a sign that your brain is getting the deep restorative work it needs to keep you sharp and balanced during the day.

If you’re feeling "foggy" or stressed, take a look at your sleep hygiene. Whether it's sound therapy, breathwork, or just a better bedtime routine, giving your brain the space to "dream it out" is essential for total body wellness.

If you’re looking for deep sleep (and a free comedy show in your head), I highly recommend this setup! 🎧

☀️ Sun’s out on Broadway... but don't let it fool you! ☀️

Looking out the window, you’d think it was a beautiful spring day here in Fortville. In reality? It’s a chilly 36°F and feels more like 27°F with the wind! 🥶

We are staying cozy inside with our scheduled clients today. Since we are by appointment only, we recommend booking your future visits now especially with a possible winter storm moving in this Saturday evening into Sunday and a high of only 12°F in the forecast for Saturday. ❄️

Stay warm, and we'll see you at your scheduled time! 🧤✨

I’ll be honest: I’m not great at the 'standard' spa thing. 🌿✨

I don’t like bright fluorescent lights. I don’t like the sound of phones ringing in the hallway. And I really don’t like it when a client feels like just another 60 minute time slot on a calendar.

I built 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞’𝐬 𝐇𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐒𝐩𝐚 because I wanted a place that felt cozy and private. Where the blankets are weighted (and buttery soft), the room is actually quiet, and the skincare is medical grade but the atmosphere is pure soul.

If you’re looking for a 'quick' clinical appointment, I might not be your girl. But if you’re looking for someone to obsess over your skin barrier while you catch up on the rest your nervous system has been begging for... you’ve found the right 'Hidden' spot.

Ready to see what’s happening beneath the surface?

I’ve officially made my 𝐇𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐧 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 complimentary ($25 value). We’ll use professional diagnostic lighting to map out your skin’s health and create a custom blueprint just for you. No guesswork, just a plan for your best glow yet.

I don’t follow a set script with facials.
I pay attention to your skin, your tension, and what you need that day.

This gentle acupressure supports lymphatic flow, helps reduce puffiness, and encourages deep relaxation.

There’s no rigid 11-step protocol, no bright lights, and no just lying on a massage table.
You’re fully supported with a cozy, luxe spa wrap and a heated weighted blanket so your body can truly relax.

Not watching the IU game tonight…

I’m in the treatment room doing Environ Cool Peels instead ✨
Quiet lights, calming LED, gentle skin correction, and zero chaos.

Never aggressive. Never inflammatory.
Just thoughtful care for long term healthy skin.
