Greetings, Beautiful Souls!
Welcome to Pure Spa Wellness! As a Trauma-Informed Wellness Practitioner, I provide unique healing experiences beyond traditional spa services. I specialize in holistic and oncology Aesthetics, utilizing CBD and Stem Cell technology skin care, manual lymphatic drainage, reiki healing, Chakra balancing, aromatherapy, and NeuroAffective Touch to promote beautiful skin, relaxation, self-love, empowerment, and restoration.
In contrast to conventional spas, my approach focuses on tackling the underlying causes of skin conditions and stress, promoting holistic well-being. With my thoughtfully curated menu, you'll experience deep relaxation, emotional release, and self-care.
At Pure Spa, safety, reliability, and excellence are paramount. I focus on cleanliness, health, and overall wellness, aiming to be a catalyst for your personal transformation.
Thank you for choosing to work with me, where your well-being and satisfaction come first.
Q: What should I expect when I book an appointment with Chrystal?
A: As a licensed Aesthetician, I specialize in Holistic, Cannabis and Oncology Aesthetics and perform non-medical, holistic facials and body treatments for all skin types and conditions.
Before we embark on your personalized treatment, we will engage in a detailed discussion about your skin's condition, your desired skincare goals, and your current skincare routine.
