I'm the President and Founder of Riversong Spa & Salon. I opened Riversong in 1998 after spending 15 years in hospital social work as a licensed massage therapist. I consider stress reduction as an extension of the health field. I specialize in hot stone massage and lymphatic drainage, although I spend very little time in the treatment room since the lure of retirement calls to me. In partner with Summit Salon Business Consulting I have built a strong team of shareholders within my company to ensure the legacy of Riversong lives on for many generations to come.

Lydia | Advanced Esthetician, Manicurist, and Makeup Artist

I was originally interested in both massage and makeup, so I decided Esthetics school would be the best of both worlds. I soon learned how much I loved the variety of everything I was able to offer to my guests, and started working for Riversong after graduation from Merrell University in 2015. Whether you need a relaxing massage, a long-lasting O.P.I GelPolish manicure, or some skin problems cleared up, I'm confident I can set you on the right path to looking and feeling great again. I'm also proud to offer Bikini, and Brazilian waxing for guys and trust me, it's better to be clean NOT shaven!!
