Hey there, friends! I’m Ashlee, the familiar face you see checking in guests, serving wine, snapping photos, creating social media content, and sometimes leading a yoga class in the Halotherapy room. If you know me, you know how seriously I take relaxation and stress relief. I’m also a bit of a massage snob(yeah, I said it), but after experiencing massages from our two new therapists, I’m beyond impressed and couldn’t wait to share the details with you!
First up is Aljan. If you like a firm pressure with a mix of deep stretches, Aljan is your go-to therapist. She has a background working in a chiropractor’s office and brings that wealth of knowledge into her massages. One thing I loved about her style is how she connects the dots between different muscle groups. She even gave me a fascinating lesson about muscles I’ve never paid much attention to – the teres major and teres minor. Aljan explained that this often-forgotten muscle, when given a little love and attention, can bring profound relief. She worked deep into this area, and I could immediately feel the difference. I was so inspired by her technique that I started massaging this area myself at home with a trigger point ball. It is now a part of my daily routine! I even incorporate it into my yoga classes, and let me tell you, people are shocked at how effective it is. Huge thanks to Aljan for sharing her knowledge about those teres muscles! It is truly a game changer.
Next up is Joy. As the name suggests, she brings a joyful and tranquil energy to her massages. Her touch is soothing yet incredibly effective at targeting those tight, knotted areas that just won’t let go. I had the chance to experience a technique I’d never had before – Joy had me lay on each side of my body while she massaged my neck and shoulder areas. It helped her get deeper into those problem spots, and let me tell you, I felt a significant release of tension. Another bonus? Joy uses a beautiful lotion that absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving any greasy residue behind. My skin felt soft and nourished, and I didn’t feel like I needed to shower it off immediately afterward.
I’m excited to try Aljan’s hot bamboo massage and Joy’s cupping therapy next! If you haven’t booked your appointment yet, I highly recommend giving these two incredible therapists a try. They each bring something unique to the table, and Vous Salon Retreat is so thrilled to have them as part of our team.
Take care of your body – it’s the only place you have to live!
