Gift certificates are available if you are interested in gifting a massage + bodywork session to a friend or family member for the holidays. Gift certificates can also be a great way to show appreciation for coworkers, childcare workers, teachers and/or anyone that's been helping you out. Please email me directly to purchase. I will send you an invoice to be paid online and can mail the gift certificate to your or the recipient.

A couple homemade gift ideas

Here are my favorite scented epsom salt and sugar scrub recipes. They are super easy to mix up and are such a treat. Great for anyone that doesn't need a lot of "things."

Relaxing Epsom Salts
2 cups epsom salt
1 teaspoon carrier oil (almond, olive, grapeseed or jojoba)
15 drops of lavender essential oil

Mix the ingredients in a large bowl until oils are evenly dispersed. Transfer to glass pint jar. Label and decorate jar.

Instructions for use: add 1/2 cup to hot bath, swirl to dissolve.

*lavender essential oil can be swapped out for other essential oils. Check out this article on which essential oils are safe for the bathtub and which aren't.

Peppermint Body Scrub
3/4 cup sugar
6 Tablespoons carrier oil (almond, olive, grapeseed or jojoba)
10-14 drops of peppermint essential oil

Mix ingredients until evenly dispersed. Transfer to 8 oz jar. Label and decorate jar.

Instructions for use: scrub a small amount over skin in the shower. Rinse off. Be sure to wash hands well before touching face or eyes.


I also wanted to shout out a couple local makers and service providers if you are looking for more ideas.
