Your first Signature Rejuvenating Facial Treatment Appointment…
What to expect during your first session
We will perform a health and skin history and discuss your specific areas of concern. We will explain each of the therapies being used, so you know what to expect during the treatment.
You will get comfy on the massage table and will stay fully covered on the table with the option of a heated bed and heat lamp for the feet.
We will start with an assessment of your skin and what is needs
We will perform facial gua sha or facial cupping, do an organic cleanse and then perform a microcurrent session on the face.
We will then check your tongue and pulse (in TCM, this gives us tons of info about your health)
We will painlessly insert the body acupuncture points and then the facial acupuncture points, based on the specific needs of the client.
Once the acupuncture portion is complete, the LED light therapy will begin
You get to totally relax for about 30 minutes. Most people fall asleep during this time.
When the session is completed, we will remove the acupuncture needles and apply small point stimulators to a few body and ear points which will help to extend the benefits of the treatment over the following few days.
We will complete the session with organic facial products
We will then discuss any homework that you need to do, such as facial exercises/stretches, facial gua sha, acupoint stimulation on the face or body, etc. based on the individual needs of the person and their area of concern.
We will chat about your facial goals and how to best achieve them with a series of sessions, and what that would look like for you.
After the treatment, your job is to enjoy your beautiful glowing skin!
Is there anything that I need to do before the appointment?
Yes, please make sure to bring your filled in paperwork to the appointment. You can access the initial Signature Rejuvenating Facial forms at the bottom of the page or you can download them here.
What else should I know?
Please dress comfortably. Shorts and a tank top with a low neck are perfect for this service as it allows us to access most of the points. If this isn’t an option, no problem, we have robes for you to use.
After your treatment you are going to feel super relaxed so please factor that calm into the rest of your day and try to schedule your day accordingly, with as little stress as possible.

Once symptoms are present the balance of the body has shifted and those symptoms must be addressed before wellness can be achieved.
