About your Spa Therapist

What is CIDESCO? CIDESCO is the world's major International Beauty Therapy Association, represented in over 33 countries. The CIDESCO Diploma is the world’s most prestigious qualification in the field of esthetics and beauty therapy.

What does it mean to be a BCTMB Bodyworker?

Board Certification in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (BCTMB) represents the highest attainable credential within the massage therapy and bodywork profession. Board Certification is an advanced credential separate from entry-level massage therapy state licensure.

As Board Certification is voluntary, its achievement represents the highest level of commitment to clients and to the advancement of the massage therapy and bodywork profession. Board Certificants must meet higher standards of education, possess a higher level of critical thinking skills, and pass a rigorous exam. The exam requires candidates to apply assessment skills, orthopedic knowledge, applied science skills (such as pathology, pharmacology, and more), and more to real-life scenarios in an effort to develop treatment plans that achieve positive results.

In addition, all Board Certificants must undergo a routine criminal background check upon initial application and renewal (every two years) as a means of ensuring employers and the public that they are working with a trusted and reputable professional.

What I believe? As a Spa Therapist, it is my goal is to provide a safe place for all, without judgment. I do not view spa therapy as a luxury.  You will never hear me refer to any of my services as "pampering" or "relaxing."  My services are all therapeutic for the body and the mind. My approach is interactive. Every treatment will be created with you in mind. Open dialogue is essential so, together, we can construct the perfect treatment plan for your skin and body.
