- Occipital traction to relieve cranial tightness
- Warm botanical balm infusion along meridian tracks
Auricular Ear Seeding
"24k gold and natural vaccaria seeds placed along autonomic auricular reflex zones."
Non-invasive reflexology applying biocompatible seeds to strategic auricular points. Continuously stimulates the vagus nerve and central nervous system to reduce systemic stress long after leaving the studio.

Unsure which ritual aligns with your facial structure?
Our licensed therapists assess facial fluid distribution and muscular holding patterns at the beginning of each session to tailor pressure points and lymphatic pathways specifically for you.
Clarity for Your Midnight Ritual
Everything you need to know about preparing for lymphatic facial massage, the Japanese Kirei Method, and maintaining long-lasting results.
Arrive with bare, clean skin if possible, though gentle double-cleansing is included in every treatment ritual. We recommend avoiding direct active acids (AHA/BHA or retinoids) for 48 hours prior to your visit. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to your neck, collarbones, and upper chest.
