Happy Small Business Saturday🪽✨

Owning and growing Alchemy Esthetic Studio has been one of the greatest honors of my life, and it’s only possible because of each of you who choose to spend your time and energy in this space, share my business with your friends and family, and allow this little sanctuary to be a place you land when you need it most. I don’t take any of that lightly—it is truly one of the biggest blessings of my life, and I am so deeply thankful for every single one of you. ❤️

Today, I’d love to gently encourage you all to support the small businesses that make our city feel like home—your favorite coffee shop, the boutique you pop into for gifts, the studios and healers who hold space for you, the makers and artists you adore. Book the service, buy the gift card, leave the Google review, share their post… it all matters more than you know.

If Alchemy has been part of your rhythm this year, thank you—from the deepest place in my heart—for allowing this work to exist. And if you feel called, today is a beautiful day to:
• Stock up on KPS Essentials through my online shop,
message me for the discount code to use at checkout
• Purchase a gift card (digital or physical) for someone
who needs time to pour back into themselves
• Share my page or leave a google review (link in bio)
so that others can find this space when they’re ready

Small choices add up to a big impact for small businesses. Thank you for being such a meaningful part of mine. ✨

8 months. 🪽💫

That’s how long it’s taken this body to arrive here.

Not because she “wasn’t working hard enough” before… but because when you’re dealing with inflammation, it often takes months for the body to feel safe enough to regulate, release, and show you the changes happening beneath the surface.

This hasn’t been a quick-fix journey. It’s been:
– dialing in water intake (filtered water with minerals
so the cells can actually use it)
– staying consistent with cooking 99% of her balanced, nourishing meals and avoiding known food sensitivities,
seed oils, preservatives and any other inflammatory foods
– choosing true rest instead of jumping right back into the patterns and schedules that keep stress high
– gently increasing detox + sweating capacity (think: regular movement, lymph support, sweating, bowel regularity)
– learning which quality vitamins + supplements her body actually needs (always best to test not guess)
– coming back to the breath, again and again, to remind
the nervous system it’s safe to soften and release
- was no longer in environments that added to ‘toxic load’

These photos are the byproduct of hundreds of
tiny choices, layered day after day, supported by
consistent lymphatic + abdominal work in the
treatment room. The most important piece?
Trusting the process and not letting anything
come between her and her consistency, even
when the changes felt slow or invisible at first.

If you’re in a season of feeling
puffy, inflamed, or “stuck” in your midsection,
I hope this is your reminder that healing isn’t
overnight. It takes time and consistency
— your body is always listening + responding.

If you feel called to support your gut + lymph in this way, you’re welcome to message me with any questions about
my Slimsage abdominal treatments or where to begin.

Your skin is your largest organ,
and when it’s fed topical nutrition
it actually recognizes and can use, it shows you.

Circulation returns.
Color evens out.
The nervous system settles.

Lymphatic activation begins to move what’s been holding
—fluid, stagnation, inflammation and there’s this subtle
softening that comes back to the skin and the features.

Everyone is chasing a “glow” these days.
But what is glow, really?
It’s not just something you paint on.

True glow is a reflection of what’s happening
underneath the surface: a lymphatic system
that’s flowing, circulation that’s nourished,
a skin barrier that feels safe and supported,
fascia that’s no longer gripping so tightly.

When those systems are cared for,
the skin doesn’t have to scream
through redness, puffiness, or dullness
—it can finally exhale.

These photos are taken just one hour apart.
You can see the change in the quality of her skin,
but you can also feel the difference in her overall
presence—softer, calmer, more at ease.

That’s the power of working with
the body instead of against it.

When your lymph isn’t flowing,
you’re fighting the flow of your life.

Your abdomen is one of the most
important lymphatic hubs in your body.

When things slow down here,
it doesn’t just show up as “a little bloating.”

It can feel like…..
a tight waistband by evening,
heaviness through the low belly,
sluggish digestion,
water retention,
PMS swelling,
low energy,
and that sense of being puffy
and stuck in your own body.

Slimsage lymphatic drainage is designed to meet
that stagnation with gentle, intelligent movement.

We’re encouraging your body to move waste, fluid, and inflammation through its natural pathways again while
inviting your nervous system back into rest-and-digest.

The visual change you see here is reduced puffiness and a softer, more defined midsection. The internal shift feels like easier breathing, less pressure, better ‘flow’ through the gut, and a quieter, more grounded nervous system.

This isn’t about shrinking you—
it’s about helping your body remember
how to circulate, release, and receive.

If you’re living with chronic bloating, fluid retention,
“stress belly,” sluggish digestion, or that stuck, heavy
feeling in your core, this work is for you.

Your lymph is your inner river—
and when it moves, so does everything else.

Your gut health matters, deeply. 🪽

As we age, our digestive and lymphatic systems need
more intentional support to keep bloat, discomfort,
and sluggishness from becoming your everyday normal.

Ongoing Slimsage Abdomen Treatments are vital for your health and wellness. This is a gentle, rhythmic lymphatic
drainage treatment designed to mobilize stagnant fluid, encourage healthy motility, and calm the stress signals that can throw your gut off balance, all while nurturing your skin.

If you’re experiencing….
stubborn belly bloat
abdominal puffiness
sluggish motility
“heavy” post-meal discomfort
irregularity or backup of bowels
water retention through the midsection
post-travel or high-sodium swelling
cycle-related (PMS/period) bloating
stress belly with shallow chest breathing
tenderness or a sense of fullness/stagnation
visible edema around the waistline and hips
low, meal-triggered energy dips during the day
or experiencing postpartum swelling / retention

Do you want a gentle, clean, non-invasive
way to support your gut-lymph rhythm?
— the Slimsage Abdomen treatment is for you.

During your session we open key lymph pathways, use diaphragmatic techniques to enhance the body’s natural “pump,” and incorporate vagus nerve supportive touch to help shift from fight or flight into rest and digest. Clients describe feeling lighter through the midsection, standing taller, and breathing easier, and you’ll see it in the mirror too.

If you’re pregnant, recovering from surgery, or managing a condition, please consult your provider—otherwise, if you’re ready for a calmer gut and a de-puffed, more comfortable core, book your “Slimsage Abdomen” via the link in bio. ✨

Cellulite is not your enemy —
it’s your body speaking.

What you see on the surface is simply fascia pulling downward while fluid and fat cells push upward, creating dimples that mirror deeper patterns beneath the skin.

It isn’t “just fat.” It’s circulation that has slowed, lymph
that isn’t flowing, fascia that’s become tight and
tethered, hormones shifting, inflammation building.

This is why cellulite shows up on every body type. It’s not a flaw — it’s a signpost asking for release, hydration, and flow.

This is where Slimsage™ becomes transformational. Through fascia release, lymphatic activation, toxin metabolism, and nutrient-rich repair, it reopens the body’s pathways.

With each session,
circulation awakens,
stagnation clears,
and tissues regain their strength.

The skin reflects these inner shifts —
smoother, firmer, more radiant with vitality.

Cellulite is an invitation to return home to your body. Slimsage™ doesn’t fight against you —
it restores what was always yours: flow, resilience, renewal.

Session by session, the body lets go, softens,
and remembers its natural rhythm of harmony.
