FOUNDER AND OWNER
Rian
Founder and owner of Sage Massage Therapy and Skin Care, Rian’s career began behind the front desk of an award winning spa in Newton where she managed reception. Immediately following, it became evident that a career in Esthetics was the next step. In 2013 she graduated from Catherine Hinds Institute of Esthetics and began a journey in the health and wellness Industry. Her foundation in esthetics was built working at two high end spas, one in the South End of Boston and the other in Newton Massachusetts where she discovered her love for facials and skin care treatments. Over the years, Rian grew a new passion for the therapeutic elements she incorporated into her facials such as guided meditation, breath work and therapeutic scalp & face massage. She found that incorporating these practices helped the client achieve a deeper sense of relaxation during their skin care treatments. Many of her clients would inquire if she also was a Massage Therapist after their facials. In response to this, Rian attended Massage Therapy school, graduating from Elizabeth Grady School of Esthetics and Massage Therapy in 2018. Rian now practices and combines both Massage Therapy and Skin care where she is able to provide the ultimate relaxing experience for her clients.
Rian specializes in non- invasive customized skin care treatments & facials. She is trained and experienced in Microdermabrasion, Chemical peels and acne prone skin.
