If you have friends or family visiting this week, it might be the perfect time to bring them in for a little care, too. The holidays can be wonderful… and also tiring, loud, busy, and a bit overwhelming for everyone involved.

A massage or facial can give your guests a quiet moment to breathe — and it gives you one, too.

Some of our favorite things people book for visiting loved ones:
~a grounding massage after long travel
~a hydrating winter facial to ease that “New England dryness shock”
~a relaxing body treatment for anyone who needs a little reset
~matching appointments so you both get some time to unwind

If someone you love could use a dose of calm while they’re here, our team would be happy to take care of them. 💜
(And yes — you’re absolutely allowed to book something for yourself, too.)

If you’re getting ready for holiday gatherings this week and want to feel a little more polished (without spending extra time getting ready), our lash and brow services are a simple, easy boost.

A brow shape or tint can brighten your whole face, and a lash lift gives that lifted, wide-awake look even on the days you’re running on less sleep than you’d like. Both are low-maintenance and last well beyond the holidays.

If your schedule is packed and you want one small thing that helps you feel a little more put together, this is a great option — quick, calming, and done for you.

Our esthetics team has openings this week if you’d like to come in before the festivities begin. 💜

Today marks the winter solstice — the longest night of the year, and the quiet turning point when the light slowly begins to return.

There’s something comforting about this pause in the calendar. A moment when nature reminds us that rest isn’t just allowed… it’s part of the rhythm. Slower mornings, softer evenings, more warmth, more stillness — it all belongs here.

If today feels heavy or tender or simply quiet, you’re right on time.
If it feels hopeful, that’s welcome too.

Take a breath, light something warm, and let yourself settle into this hinge of the season. From here, the days begin to lengthen again. 💜

We love when clients share their experiences — especially when it reflects the care our team brings into every session. Here’s one that made our whole week.

Caitryn has such a gift for tuning in, listening with her hands, and finding that perfect balance of therapeutic work and ease. We’re grateful every day for the way she supports our clients’ bodies with so much intention.

If your body has been asking for deeper relief — the kind that’s personalized and intuitive — you’ll be in wonderful hands with her. 💜

12/19/2025

This time of year asks a lot of us — our time, our energy, our attention. It’s easy to get swept up in the pace of it all and forget that winter was never meant to be a season of rushing.

A small reminder for today, if your body is craving slowness, warmth, or stillness, it’s okay to honor that. Even a few quiet minutes can help you come back to yourself.

Wishing you softness as we move through this last week before the holidays. 💜

12/18/2025

If your skin has been feeling dry, tight, or a little neglected in the cold, a Full Body Scrub is such a comforting way to reset. Winter air pulls moisture from the skin, and sometimes lotion just doesn’t touch that deeper dryness — your body needs exfoliation, warmth, and real nourishment.

This treatment is slow, warm, and incredibly soothing from start to finish.

We begin with gentle dry brushing to wake up the skin and encourage healthy circulation.
Then your esthetician applies a hand-prepared scrub — Himalayan salt, whipped sugar, or coffee brown sugar — massaged into the skin to lift away dullness and soften rough areas.

Warm towels are pressed into the body to melt the scrub and gently remove it, creating a cocoon-like heat that helps your muscles relax.

The treatment ends with a hydrating oil massage, giving your freshly exfoliated skin the moisture it’s been craving.

You’ll leave feeling soft, nurtured, and more at home in your skin — the perfect winter ritual if you're preparing for the holidays, noticing more dryness than usual, or simply wanting an hour where your body feels cared for from head to toe.

Our team would love to treat you to this seasonal reset. 💜

We had such a wonderful time at our staff holiday party this past weekend — a rare night where we get to show up as people first and practitioners second. Good food, good drinks, and so much laughter… exactly what we all needed.

A huge shoutout to Waypoint Spirits for hosting us. Their team was incredible, the food was delicious, and the drink specials were such a hit. They made the whole night easy and fun from start to finish. We’re grateful for our partnership with them (you may know them from our men’s Bourbon & Beer Facial) and even more grateful after spending the evening in their space.

And because every good holiday party needs a moment of pure silliness… enjoy the photos of our “gift-ribbon tie” trend that somehow caught on and made its way around the team. A little creativity, a lot of laughter — very on brand for us.

It’s such a gift to spend time together outside the office, celebrate the season, and remember how lucky we are to work with this group of humans. 💜

If you love the comfort of a full-body massage but also want your skin to feel deeply cared for this winter, the Deluxe Facial is a beautiful bridge between the two.

This isn’t just a facial — it’s a head-to-toe experience.

You’ll start with a back treatment designed to warm, soften, and relax the muscles before you even turn over. Your esthetician will use gentle massage techniques and rich, nourishing products to help your body settle in and release tension.

From there, you’ll move into a full facial tailored to your skin’s needs — cleansing, exfoliation, massage, masque, and finishing products that support hydration and calmness during these dry, cold months.

And then comes the part clients rave about:

A scalp massage with warm jojoba oil, using slow, grounding movements that help quiet the mind and melt stress from the inside out.

While your masque rests, your esthetician will finish with a foot treatment — warm towels, soothing pressure, and nourishing products that leave your feet soft and supported.

It’s the kind of service you book when you want to feel both grounded and cared for — when you want skincare without giving up the massage experience you love.

Our esthetics team has openings this week if you’re craving something restorative. 💜

12/15/2025

The holidays can be beautiful… and they can also feel like a lot. Full calendars, family dynamics, travel, extra to-dos, less daylight, more expectations — it’s no surprise that our bodies start sending little signals asking for steadiness.

This week on the blog, we’re talking about holiday stress and how to stay grounded in the middle of it all. Think of it as a gentle guide for when your nervous system feels stretched thin: simple practices, small mindset shifts, and ways to reconnect with your body when everything around you is moving quicker than you’d like.

If you’ve been feeling a little overwhelmed, a little tired, or like you’re running on the last bit of your “people energy,” this one’s for you.

You can read the full post on our site — and we hope it brings you a moment of calm in the middle of the season. 💜

Winter salads are a quiet kind of comfort. They’re bright without being cold, hearty without being heavy, and full of the minerals and colors our bodies tend to crave this time of year.

This month’s Winter Salads Collection is packed with dishes that feel nourishing, grounding, and doable — the perfect balance for December. You’ll find everything from:
~roasted squash, beets, and sweet potatoes (hello, warmth and natural sweetness)
~lentils, farro, chickpeas, and white beans for steady energy
~seasonal fruits like apples and pears for brightness
~kale, Brussels sprouts, and cabbage for crunch and minerals
~cozy dressings made with tahini, maple, mustard, lemon, and herbs

There’s a little something for every mood — whether you want a warm bowl (like the Warm Farro & Sweet Potato Salad), something creamy and crunchy (the Brussels Sprouts + Apple & Walnut Salad), or something fresh and vibrant (the Apple & Beet Quinoa Salad).

If you’ve been wanting to add more color and nourishment to your winter meals, this collection is such a lovely place to begin. Let us know what you try — we always love hearing what makes it into your kitchen. 💜

Some weekends aren’t meant for catching up — they’re meant for settling in.

If your body feels a little slower this time of year, that’s natural. The darker mornings, the cold air, the pace of December… it all invites a different kind of rest.

A few small ways to soften into your Saturday:
~warm socks, warm drinks, warm lighting
~letting one thing on your to-do list roll into next week
~adding a little extra moisture to your skin
~giving yourself permission to move gently

Winter asks us to be softer with ourselves. If you needed a reminder, here it is. 💜

If your skin has been feeling a little weathered from the cold, the heaters, and the pace of the season, our Holly Facial is a cozy way to bring everything back into balance.

This winter-only treatment blends gentle exfoliation, rich hydration, and festive botanical ingredients to help brighten and nourish dry, tired skin. It’s soothing, aromatic, and designed to leave your complexion feeling soft, calm, and refreshed — a little moment of warmth in the middle of December.

The Holly Facial is a lovely choice if you’re craving:
~a boost of moisture
~a softer, more radiant complexion
~a seasonal treatment that feels both relaxing and fun
~a pause in the middle of holiday busyness

If your skin could use some extra care this week, we’d love to treat you to this winter favorite. 💜
