Growing up in the Cowichan Valley, Vanessa began her journey in the wellness field in 2004. After exploring her choices, she enrolled in the Esthetics industry graduating from the Vancouver Island School of Hair and Esthetics. She continued to expand her skills and education at local days spas and resorts until 2009 when a strong following of clientele encouraged her to open her own Esthetics business from home.

In the spring of 2011 Vanessa made a decision to move her and her business to Ladysmith, she was overwhelmed by the wonderful welcome from the community she now calls home. She is grateful that so many of her clients still travel to Ladysmith for her services and treatments.

In 2009 Therapeutic Touch was introduced into Vanessa's life and has been a wonderful addition complementing her treatments. She now holds her Level 3 in Therapeutic Touch.

In December 2018 Vanessa completed her Foot Reflexology and now holds her certification as a RCRT (Registered Canadian Reflexology Therapist) with RAC - Reflexology of Canada Association and is excited to offer Reflexology Therapy to her business.
