Sometimes your skin doesn’t need MORE.
It needs help letting go.

You’re consistent with your skincare.
You cleanse. You hydrate. You use your serums.
But your skin still feels dull, congested, textured or uneven.

Your pores look more noticeable.
Pigmentation seems to linger.
Your products don’t seem to give
you the same glow they once did.
And sometimes, the missing piece
isn’t adding another product. It’s turnover.

As our natural cellular renewal begins to slow, older keratinized cells can accumulate at the surface, leaving the complexion looking duller, rougher and more congested and preventing
that fresh luminosity underneath from showing through.

But at Alchemy, we also don’t believe the answer is to aggressively strip the skin in pursuit of faster results.

THE FIRE | Pumpkin Enzyme
Pumpkin fruit + natural enzymes begin loosening accumulated surface cells while bilberry, neem and cinnamon surround the skin with nutrient-rich botanical and antioxidant support.

THE RESURFACE | La Luna Glycolic Peel
Glycolic acid encourages more even shedding of compacted surface cells to address the appearance of texture, congestion, visible pores, fine lines, dullness and uneven pigmentation.
But this isn’t simply an acid peel, the pearl powder, konjac root
and rose water bring amino acids, trace minerals, humectant hydration and soothing support alongside the resurfacing.

THE ICE | Cool + Reset
Cooling Ice Globes bring the skin out of the
warmth of the resurfacing phase, creating
a soothing transition before we replenish.

THE NOURISH | Vitamin C Treatment
And this is where we give back. Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, tangerine oil, cacao butter and non-comedogenic coconut
oil surround freshly resurfaced skin with antioxidants, vitamin C, hydration and lipid-rich nourishment while supporting brightness, collagen formation and moisture retention.

Resurface. Replenish. Renew.
Where intentional exfoliation
meets deep nourishment. ✨🪞🪽

You wake up and your jaw already feels tired.
You catch yourself clenching during the day.
Your teeth meet when you’re concentrating.
Your temples feel tight by the end of the day.
Maybe you grind your teeth at night,
experience TMJ discomfort, facial pain
or headaches or you simply know that
your face never completely lets go.

Eventually, holding tension becomes so
familiar that you stop noticing you’re doing it.

Until someone begins working with
the places that have been holding it.

This is the Sculptural Buccal Intra-Oral Facial Treatment.
A deeply intentional treatment that works both externally
and from inside the mouth to access the facial muscles,
fascia and tissues associated with patterns of grinding, clenching, jaw tension and TMJ-related discomfort.

Because when we’re talking about a sculptural facial,
we’re not only talking about how the face looks.
We’re talking about how the face feels.

How freely the jaw moves.
How much tension the muscles have been carrying.
How guarded the tissues feel.
How much fluid the face may be holding.
How connected the jaw, face, neck + nervous system truly are.

These photographs were taken immediately after +
before one Sculptural Buccal ‘Intra-Oral’ treatment.

You can see subtle changes within the facial contours—
the cheekbones appear more pronounced,
the jaw more defined, the face more sculpted.
But the photograph only tells half of the story.

It cannot show you the feeling of having someone
intentionally work into muscles you didn’t realize were tight.
The moment your jaw finally feels like it can soften.
The realization that perhaps you’ve been carrying
stress throughout your face and jaw for years.

Through intentional intra-oral and external work,
we’re supporting mobility within the facial muscles,
fascia, encouraging lymphatic movement,
circulation, and creating more ease within tissues
that may have become chronically tight or guarded.

Come experience what your face feels like
when it no longer has to hold quite so much. 🪞✨🪽

The Slimsage™ Abdomen Lymphatic Treatment
is an advanced metabolic, lymphatic, and recovery-enhancing therapy designed to support the deeper
tissue environment where stagnation, restriction, inflammation, and congestion often begin.

This treatment supports lymphatic movement, microcirculation, interstitial fluid exchange, tissue oxygenation, fascial mobility and nervous system
regulation, helping create an internal environment
where fluid, oxygen, nutrients, and cellular
communication can move more efficiently.

When your abdomen may be asking for support….
* PCOS / hormonal-metabolic concerns
* Endometriosis
* Fibroids
* Constipation or irregular bowel movements
* Sluggish digestion
* Food sensitivities or digestive flares
* Bloating, puffiness + water retention
* A hard, guarded, tight, or tense abdomen
* Abdominal discomfort, pressure, or cramping
* Irregular, absent, or changing menstrual cycles
* Painful or heavy periods
* Perimenopause, menopause + post-menopause
* Postpartum recovery
* C-section, tummy tuck, hysterectomy, or
other abdominal/pelvic surgeries or surgical scars
* High stress + a nervous system that rarely feels settled
* Autoimmune or inflammatory conditions
* GLP-1 use, especially when digestion or regularity has shifted
* Unexpected changes in weight or body composition
* Feeling of restriction through the lower abdomen
* Difficulty taking a full diaphragmatic breath / constantly bracing through the core
* Feeling disconnected from your abdomen or womb space
* Or simply wanting to be proactive about gut health, fluid movement, fascia, circulation, mobility, and whole-body wellness

No matter your age, what symptoms you’re experiencing, or the season of life you’re moving through, the abdomen is a space that deserves to be supported. This treatment is about creating more movement, more softness, and a healthier internal environment so your body has the support it needs to regulate, recover, and function as a whole.

Your face is one of the first places the body begins
to show signs of stagnation. Whether it’s puffiness
upon waking, sinus pressure, allergies, headaches,
brain fog, jaw tension, or skin that simply doesn’t
look or feel like itself, these can all be signs that
your body could benefit from additional support.

The Slimsage™ Facial Lymphatic Treatment is
designed to support healthy lymphatic flow
while gently working with the fascia to release
areas of restriction and improve tissue mobility.

As circulation, oxygenation, and the movement
of interstitial fluid are encouraged, the body is
better supported in reducing fluid retention,
improving nutrient delivery, and creating an
environment where your natural healing
processes can function more efficiently.

For the face specifically, this treatment can be
incredibly supportive for those experiencing facial
puffiness, sinus congestion, headaches, jaw tension,
brain fog, feelings of heaviness, and inflammation.

By encouraging healthy lymphatic movement throughout
the face, neck, and surrounding tissues, many clients
notice they feel lighter, clearer, and more refreshed,
while also seeing a brighter complexion, more defined
facial contours, and healthier-looking skin.

Beyond the visible changes, my favorite part is how
this treatment supports the nervous system.

As tension begins to soften and the body shifts into
a more restorative state, many clients leave feeling
calmer, more grounded, and deeply relaxed.

Supporting the lymphatic system, fascia, circulation,
and nervous system together creates an environment
where the body can function at its highest potential.

This is more than reducing puffiness,
it’s supporting the systems that allow your body to thrive. Because when the body is supported from within, the
skin has the opportunity to reflect that health outward.

Alchemy Signature 90-Minute Facial Treatment ✨🪽

These extended treatments will forever
hold a special place in my heart.

Every facial I offer is completely customized to
what your skin and body are asking for that day.
That’s where true skin healing begins.

For this beautiful client, our intention was luminous,
deeply hydrated skin paired with a complete reset
for her lymphatic system and nervous system.

We began by nourishing her skin in a curated blend of nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich botanical masks, delivering essential vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and phytonutrients directly into the skin to restore vitality from the inside out.

From there, the treatment unfolded intuitively through advanced facial massage, a tension melting hand and arm massage, lymphatic drainage, gua sha, and scalp massage.

Each technique building upon the last to encourage lymphatic fluid movement, soften fascial restrictions, and bring the skin and body into a state of deep regulation.

One of her biggest concerns was the fine lines across
her forehead. But what I see isn’t simply a wrinkle.

I see fascia.
I see patterns of tension.
I see areas where circulation, lymphatic flow,
and tissue mobility have become restricted over time.

The forehead is so deeply connected to the scalp,
which is why we spent extra time stimulating the
tissues throughout her scalp, allowing years of
accumulated tension to begin melting away while
her nervous system settled into a state of complete rest.

This has never felt like “work” to me. It’s art.
Every person who walks through my door is a
blank canvas, and there is nothing I love more
than listening to the story their skin is telling.

The skin is constantly communicating.
When we learn to listen instead of
simply treating the surface,
we create space for the body to do
what it was always designed to do. To heal.

The extended facial treatments allow us the time to honor every one of those systems, and that’s when the transformation becomes so much more than skin deep.

Watching the skin come alive again
never stops leaving me speechless. 🥹✨

The Slimsage™ Torso Lymphatic Treatment 🪽✨

The Torso Slimsage™ combines the abdomen and
lower back into one comprehensive session,
supporting the digestive system, lymphatic system,
fascia, circulation, nervous system, and the tissues surrounding the spine and abdominal cavity simultaneously.

Your abdomen is home to the majority of your
lymphatic tissue, your enteric nervous system
(“the second brain”), and many of the organs
responsible for digestion, metabolism, detoxification, hormone metabolism, and immune function.

The lower back houses the muscles, fascia,
connective tissue, and nerve pathways that
communicate with nearly every organ throughout the body.

When restriction, congestion, inflammation,
or fascial tension exist throughout the torso,
these systems often cannot communicate
and function as efficiently as they were designed to.

Her results speak for themselves
but the way she feels in her body says even more.

It’s about giving the body the support it’s
been asking for so it can return to balance from within.

Slimsagé™ Abdomen Treatment 🪽✨

Your abdomen is often one of the first places your
body begins communicating that it needs support.

When we’re experiencing stress, the nervous system
remains in a constant state of “fight or flight.”

Over time, that heightened state of stress can
contribute to tight, restricted fascia, slower
digestion, reduced lymphatic movement,
constipation, fluid retention, and abdominal bloating.

When the body isn’t moving and eliminating efficiently, inflammation can build, leaving you feeling fatigued,
heavy, puffy, and disconnected from your body.

Slimsagé™ was designed to support these systems together.

By combining fascia work, metabolic support, lymphatic stimulation, and nervous system regulation, we encourage healthy circulation, lymphatic flow, digestion, and elimination while helping the body shift back into a parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) state. When the body feels safe enough
to regulate, it can move fluid more efficiently, support healthy detoxification pathways, and reduce the inflammation
that often contributes to bloating and discomfort.

This becomes especially supportive
during perimenopause and menopause.

As estrogen and progesterone begin to fluctuate, many women experience slower digestion, constipation, increased abdominal bloating, water retention, changes in the gut microbiome, and greater nervous system dysregulation.

At the same time, many women aren’t consuming
enough fiber or replenishing essential minerals like magnesium, potassium, sodium, and vitamin C
all of which play important roles in supporting
healthy digestion, bowel regularity, hydration,
hormone metabolism, stress resilience, and cellular function.

Slimsagé™ helps create the environment for these
systems to function more efficiently while we continue supporting the body through foundational nutrition,
fiber, mineral replenishment, movement, and lifestyle.

Because healing isn’t about forcing the body to change.

It’s about giving it the support it needs
to remember what it was designed to do.

There was a season where I thought drinking enough water was enough….then I started learning about minerals.

Our bodies don’t just need water, they need the nutrients
that allow water to actually enter and nourish our cells.

Every single day we’re using minerals to regulate stress, produce energy, support our immune system, balance blood sugar, move lymphatic fluid, calm inflammation, communicate between cells, repair tissue, and create healthy skin.

Yet chronic stress, poor sleep, intense exercise, processed foods, alcohol, caffeine, illness, and simply living in today’s fast-paced world all increase our demand for them.

This is why I love Minerals & Chill so much.

It’s become one of my favorite daily rituals because it supports the body in such a foundational way.

• Magnesium Malate helps support nervous system regulation, muscle relaxation, healthy cortisol rhythms, energy production, and stress resilience.

• Sodium and potassium help restore hydration, electrolyte balance, adrenal function, circulation, fluid balance, and healthy cellular communication.

• Acerola cherry-derived vitamin C supports collagen production, antioxidant protection, immune health, and healthy adrenal function while helping buffer the effects of chronic stress.

When the body is properly mineralized,
we often notice improvements in:
• inflammation
• puffiness
• skin healing
• breakouts
• lymphatic flow
• digestion
• energy
• stress resilience
• overall skin health

Because healthy skin doesn’t begin with skincare.
It begins with giving the body what it needs to function well.

One of my favorite little daily rituals whenever I need a little *boost* and one I recommend to so many of my clients.
