So I just got my first facial done today!! Shauna Fullerton did an amazing job. Even though I did a quick 30 minute session, she still made sure to do everything I wanted. If anyone is free on Saturdays, definitely go see shauna. She does facial up to an hour, waxing, lashes and eyebrows!

I have been receiving massages for approximately 10 yrs. I carry a lot of tension in my shoulders due to a desk job. I found Cortiva institute about two years ago after moving to Maryland. All my massages here have been good but today’s massage was excellent x3. I felt like I received a massage for rich and famous. I feel weightless like I have been in space for a while. Million thanks to my therapist Janet who has a gift. You have set the bar high. I wish you all the success in your future endeavors.
