Our integrative practitioners review your skin, facial, and body’s needs from the inside out. We are more than a spa, providing you with services that are safe, natural, and promote longevity all at the same time. Each regulated practitioner has a minimum of four years training in their designated profession with our senior practitioners having over twenty-five years of experience in natural wellness including spa services.

As the acupuncture needles puncture the skin, they create positive micro-traumas that promote your body to move into repair mode.  These mini-punctures stimulate your lymphatic and circulatory system, to deliver nutrients and oxygen to your skin cells. This nourishes your skin from the inside out leaving you with a brighter complexion.  The positive micro-traumas also stimulate the production of collagen, which helps to improve elasticity, minimizing fine lines and wrinkles. The effect is similar to micro-needling with a gentler approach – acupuncture averaging about 50 punctures compared to micro-needling with hundreds of pricks through a rolling device.

• Acupuncture is less expensive, a natural approach, and creates long-term changes to the health of the skin and body. Acupuncture increases oxygenation, promotes collagen formation, reduces jaw tension, and leads to a brighter glow to the skin.
• Botox or dermal fillers are more expensive, and creates shorter-term changes to the area that is focused on.

Everyone’s Natural spa therapies are tailored to them and based on your unique goals. For facial acupuncture, one study found that the majority of people saw improvements after just five sessions of facial acupuncture.¹ We generally recommend 10 treatments once or twice a week to see optimum results. After that, it is common to move into the “maintenance stage,” where you get the treatment every four to eight weeks. Please discuss with your practitioners to determine what is right for you.
