I would like to welcome you and share just how this practice came to life.
Initially I began my career back in 2006 attending the Baltimore School of Massage. Upon entry I was given the option to study both massage therapy and physical fitness modeled by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). Upon graduating I became employed as a medical massage therapist. The experience and knowledge I gained allowed me to start my first business.
Not long after starting my business I was deployed to Iraqi Freedom through the Army Reserves. I was already in my late forties during this time. After returning, I came back from the middle east needing to get reestablished. I started by acquiring more training as a skin specialist at the Lancaster School of Cosmetology. A year later I began working with Beauty Beyond Fifty.
From the moment I created Beauty Beyond Fifty I wanted to provide services encompassing natural health concepts as they relate to beauty. As a returning soldier from Iraq finding healing for myself and others became a vital addition to these concepts. I've been a work in progress ever since.
Maintaining dual certifications and dual licensure in both massage therapy and esthetics required me to attend many continuing education classes over the years. The classes I attribute most to my mastery of facial massage are Facial Cupping, Herbal Poultice Facial Massage, Gua Sha Facial Fusion, Acupressure/Shiatsu Facelift, Thai Facial Massage, Japanese Facial Massage, Japanese Hot Stone Facial Massage, Holistic Face & Neck Lifting, and numerous classes on Facial Drainage.
Other training included a Temporomandibular Dysfunction seminar through Great Lakes, skin and aging through Rhonda Allison, Osmosis and Circadia.
As a NSCA Certified Personal Trainer, Postural Restructuring and Mind/Body fitness have been another primary area of focus. As a Reiki Practitioner and Energetic Therapist, I trained under four Reiki Masters beginning in 2007. Each master had something special to offer in their teachings. This included Chakra Balancing and Facial Energetic Therapy.
Through research, practice, experimentation, discovery and working with many clients searching for natural, healthy alternatives to graceful aging and inner peace I have elevated my understanding further in providing a great therapeutic experience that treats the face, neck, body, mind and spirit.
I created Beauti-ssage and authored the book, “The Art of Professional Facial Rolling”.
I enjoy teaching facial massage and working with both business owners and clients.
I am friendly and invite you to come in for a tour or consult anytime.
