Now located on the northeast side of Port Washington, Wisconsin; the exact address will be in your confirmation email when you schedule online.
Welcome! I am excited to offer you all the relaxing and therapeutic services previously offered at Ray of Light Skincare, Massage & Wellness in the comfort of my home. A few new facial services have been added to the menu and weather permitting, we have the option for outdoor Thai massage on the back deck. The new home studio was built during the 2020 pandemic shut down-and it has turned out just perfect. If you had been a client during my time at Ray of Light (2002-2020), thank you for making 18 years at Ray of Light a dream come true!
The new treatment room walls have music studio quality noise insulation, the door is foam filled with a rubber seal, the new Sonos music system has a beautiful sound quality, and the air purifier provides a gentle white noise. This has also become my sanctuary when I need a little alone time!
Your safety and comfort are always on my mind, and sanitation and disinfection have always been a priority; please visit THIS PAGE for all of the specifics on how I am handling the COVID-19 pandemic.
As for the creature comforts you might enjoy reading about…
An electric massage table makes getting on and off the table easier if you are older or injured. The massage table has built in memory foam, an additional 2" layer of memory foam, inserts that can be removed for chest comfort, and features to raise your knees and elevate your head. There are no better sheets than the ones I use from Comphy (you'll also find these at Kohler Water Spa) and hand-made specially designed face cradle covers so you won’t leave with “massage face!” And for the face cradle itself (you know the thing your face spends half your session in?), I found the Boiance cushion by Oakworks. With multi-layered padding and strategically placed water spheres, less pressure is placed on your eyes and sinuses. This cushion is then placed on the Boiance Float which allows your head to move as your body moves (about 1.5" in all directions) so your neck doesn't stiffen while your back and shoulders are massaged! I get so many compliments on the comfort of my table, you really must come and try it! Beautiful, adjustable ambient lighting provides as much or as little light as desired. Enjoy relaxing spa music, request something more specific from Alexa, or bring your own (just sync with the bluetooth speaker from your device)!
Little things make a difference, but never worry-these optional extras will never be an extra charge! Have a little more tension than usual? Therapeutic cupping feels amazing and is a great first step toward reducing muscular and fascial tension. It is also amazing for nerve issues and reducing inflammation. There is even a protocol for full facial cupping-choose the add-on when you schedule online-definitely one of the most relaxing services I offer! Want some heat on your back, or wherever we need to warm up before massage, or on your cold feet? The Theratherm pad heats up FAST and provides moist heat to help loosen up tight areas so my hands can really get deeper to the cause of your tension! An infrared heat lamp is available when deep, penetrating heat is indicated. And for those of you who like to be warm, the table has an adjustable heating pad on it. Gel ice packs are always on hand as well (especially nice during a hot flash). There are pillows (so many shapes, sizes and densities), bolsters, blankets, eye pillows, and more! If you’re not comfortable, we cannot obtain our best results. That is why I feel all of these “extras” are essential.
For your massage, choose from unscented lotion or oil or one of my aromatherapy blends. On the floral side I offer Jasmine, Lavender/Tangerine, Lavender/Clary Sage/Lemon, and Rose/Neroli/Grapefruit. On the spicy/earthy side, there is Sage, Bergamot/Patchouli/Peppermint/Rosemary, and Frankincense/Myrrh/Cedarwood/Orange. Occasionally there are seasonal blends. Eucalyptus essential oil is offered to help you breathe while you lie face down (even though the face cradle is AMAZING, gravity still has an effect). Organic and natural products are always used (not just during your treatment but also in our cleaning products)!
For your facial: LED treatment (for facial regeneration, deep muscular healing, inflammation reduction), aromatherapy, hot towels, high frequency, and ultrasonic spatula extractions are offered as extras without extra cost. The skincare industry offers constant innovation and ever-expanding options for me to offer you! So always expect more!!!
Want to make your service even more memorable? Choose an add-on service like foot exfoliation (with cleansing scrub, exfoliation, hot towels and moisturizer), and facial cupping (soooo relaxing and therapeutic… Bellatazzi glass cups provide a sequence to reduce inflammation and swelling, reduce the appearance of aging, and take you to your happy place).
Your session should be perfect, and that is my goal! Massage pressure or technique, room temperature, table temperature, volume or type of music, lighting, products, and so much more can all be modified to your preference. Effective communication is vitally important and can make the difference between a good session and a great session-never hesitate to let me know your preferences or if you are ever uncomfortable!
Whether it's with massage or aesthetics (or both), my goal is to help you shine a little brighter. We all shine on the inside; showing and feeling it is a choice. And sometimes we need a little help getting there-and that is OK. I am here to help. Thank you for taking the time to read all of this. I hope to see you soon.
