Before I share a little more information about myself, I want to thank you so much for visiting my website! It means so much to me to have been able to create a place of peace for you to come to and the opportunity for me to be a part of your unique journey.
I grew up in Germany and moved to the U.S. in the early 2000's. I have been Esthetician and Massage Therapist for almost 2 decades now. I also am a Reiki and Energy Healer and Life-Coach.
I always wanted to be more than a great Esthetician. While experiencing working in 5-star Resorts like the Ritz-Carlton/Bacara Santa Barbara, my dream was to provide a less rushed and more nurturing place that offered quality services and supported each client on their unique Lifes journey. May that be thru my goal-oriented facials, a soothing massage or thru a life-coaching session with energy-balancing. THE OCEAN ROOM is the realization of that dream.
My own 'skin-journey' ~ Surfing and riding horses has always been an essential part of my life. I love animals and the ocean more than most people can imagine and could not see a life without either. My background is an interesting blend of biology studies and animal research and training as well as a degree in advertising and some work in that area while still living in Germany. Once I moved permanently to the U.S I lived in Hawaii and spend my youth working on sail boats, surfing and really more in the water than on land. Not something any esthetician would ever suggest you do, due to the harmful sun rays and the aging effects on our skin. Secondly, I had my own business training horses, which made me be outside all day exposed to the harsh sun. With other words, my skin needed all the help I could give it. Thankfully I cared for my skin since a young age and knew how to best support it. Today that knowledge lets me help my active clients get their best skin ever, without having to give up on what we love so much. At any age we can adapt a routine to improve our skin and keep doing the things we love. Having just turned 50, my specialty is aging, sun-damaged and compromised and sensitized skin. I also specialize in oncology esthetics and massage for anyone affected by cancer. But of course, any skin is welcome, my goal is to make your skin feel amazing and glow with all your beauty, inside and out!
Having lived in Germany, Hawaii and now California I have a very worldly approach to skin care, and I enjoy deepening my knowledge on each trip to Europe to see what is new in skincare and research so I can bring those services to you.
I care about each of my clients as an individual and want the best for you on all levels. Thats why my approach is so inclusive, from your face to your body to your emotional well-being. I will always support you to become your best self yet. Whether that is thru my facials, my unique massage or thru my life-coaching and intuitive energy balancing.
Please reach out with any questions you may have! I look forward to welcoming you to THE OCEAN ROOM!
