Holistic Skin Therapies
Evolve with Grace treatments are customized for each individual client. Kim takes a holistic approach to skin care and wellness, focusing on both the internal and external influences that affect your skin body, mind and spirit. Treatments incorporate aspects of traditional skin care, as well as the healing arts of aromatherapy, flower essences and Reiki.
Facials
All facials begin with cleansing and toning, followed by a thorough skin analysis to determine your skin’s needs. Your skin is then exfoliated according to your skin type, followed by extractions, if necessary. Next, a thorough upper body massage is performed, complete with a décolleté, shoulder and facial massage to relieve stress and improve skin clarity. Afterwards, a final mask is applied (hydrating, soothing or detoxifying) while you enjoy a light arm and hand massage. Your facial ends with mask removal, toning and moisturizing, leaving your skin with a healthy glow.
All treatments are customized using products and therapies chosen specifically to suit your skin type, the current condition of your skin and environmental factors.

Fruit Acid Peels $125.00
Glycolic acid facial peels are fast, simple and effective. The procedure is quick, virtually pain free and the results are immediate. Glycolic acid "sugarcane” is applied to the skin for a brief period, and then neutralized. Generally there is little or no down time and the result is beautiful radiant glowing skin.
What are peels?
Chemical peels or fruit acid peels are one way in which we exfoliate dead cells on the outer layer of the skin. Exfoliation is an essential step to maintaining healthy, beautiful, radiant skin. Regular peels help to reverse the signs of aging, improve skin tone and texture, stimulate collagen production, treat acne, and reduce acne scars, brown spots, ingrown hairs and uneven pigmentation. After the peel, the skin immediately looks healthy, supple and radiant. Results will continue to develop and over the course of 3-5 days and you will see marked improvement. Some peels require a brief recovery time before the optimal result is evidenced.
Pre Peel Instructions
Some preparation is recommended prior to the peel. It is recommended to discontinue the use of topical and manual exfoliation products 3-5 days before the procedure. Some examples of topical exfoliates are Retinoids, such as Retin-A and Renova. There are many over the counter products that contain retinol as well as glycolic acid. Best to discontinue if any of the products you use cause flaking, peeling or cause your skin to be sensitive.
Post Care
After the peel your skin will be more sensitive to the sun and its harmful UVA and UVB rays, proper sun protection is necessary. I recommend using a sunscreen with an SPF 30 for at least 2-3 weeks after peels. Daily sunscreen should be a part of your skin care regimen SPF of 15 is recommended for daily use.
Reiki Treatments
Each person is unique and therefore the number of treatments recommended varies by individual. After a consultation a program can be tailored to fit your needs we have however created a system of treatments that area guide and can be useful for those who are just looking into Reiki.
Rescue: A 60-minute session over the course of four days. This type of treatment plan is usually recommended for those in a crisis situation that requires healing, emotional or spiritual. Daily treatments are very helpful in the case of chronic health conditions or to soothe and support the system while undergoing chemotherapy. They are also beneficial for support during a divorce, loss of a job or death of a loved one.
Refresh: A 30 or 60-minute treatment once a month for maintenance. These can be a wonderful addition to any other medical treatment or alternative healing practice, and can also be combined with a facial for a complete restorative treatment.
Revitalize: A 30 or 60-minute session each quarter or season designed to realign the system and focus on any issues that require support. A brief consultation with information on how to shift in harmony with the seasons, for increased positive change. Each session is tailored to the individual and can be combined with flower essence therapy for a more comprehensive treatment.

This treatment begins with a grounding process (similar to meditation), followed by tuning into your specific needs.

You’ll leave with a custom flower essence blend that will support you and bring you into a greater state of balance.
Flower essences can be used for releasing addictions or negative patterns, releasing trauma, manifesting your desires, releasing fear and self-doubt, embracing the present moment and anything else that will bring you into a greater state of balance. Essences are safe for adults, children, pets and plants and work very gently to create subtle shifts over time.
At the end of each session at Evolve With Grace, we will create a product specifically designed to target your individual needs and bring you balance. These products are blended through an alchemical process that utilizes flower essence therapies, aromatherapy, holistic healing modalities and your own intention.
