  Yvette Tremaine, owner and esthetician. I have worked in the skin care industry for 13 years and opened Tantra Spa in December 2002. I really never saw it coming, it just happened very gracefully. I am: a caregiver, Mom and photographer. I love: twilight, hammocks, quiet mornings, campfires, my Brit, herbs and remedies, Al Green, dancing, anything about the 70's, my dogs, the beach, Elton John, the U.P, a simple life and lemonade stands.
   
  Kristin Ryan, professional caregiver. I have been a licensed cosmetologist and esthetician since 1995 and I began studying massage in 1998. I am: a
painter, good listener, companion and supporter. I'm all for: peace & love, brownies, the DIA, juicing, big Ben, family, bare feet, the Fly Trap, full moons, Harper Lee, Nina Simone, cosmos, orange and red, Savannah, Dr. McDreamy, What the Bleep and Miles Davis.
   
  Nicole Wrona: I began studying massage in 1996 at Irene's Myomassology school.  I traveled to Thailand and studied Thai massage in 1997.  I  am also a licensed cosmetologist and love doing hair.  I am a wife, a  mother, and a goof-ball.  I love my garden, camping, healthy food,  renaissance fest, dancing, LOST, my family and teaching my kids about life.
   
  Molly Novack. I have been doing manicures and pedicures for 20 years, and most recently added Reflexologist to that list. I’m very passionate about natural healing. I love the idea of helping someone balance their mind, body, and spirit, through touching their feet. I love, Sedona, Bohemian Beach, Leland, coffee, the 3 Johns;  Denver, Mayer and Lennon, the Dirt Bros., any song written by Mike Novack, and a good glass of red wine with some really good Italian food. But my favorite thing is when my husband, son, dog, and I are all home sitting by the fire.
   
  Amy Tarrant. I have been practicing massage for 16 years. Helping people
through massage is truly a passion of mine. I expect to be practicing
massage until I am very old and gray. I think that when people give and
receive massage or any body work it makes the world a better place.

These are a few of my favorite things: watching my son randomly skip just
because he is happy, walking or skiing through the woods, lying in the sun,
holding hands with my husband, taking in a hot summer night, enjoying family
group hugs, listening to people laugh, watching my son sleeping in my arms,
watching my husband wash windows, basking in the first snow, smelling and
tasting my husband's homemade Italian sauce, rolling in the leaves, dancing
to funky music???.. and the list goes on.

   
  Lesley Borkowski. I graduated from massage school in Alaska in 2005 with a background in deep tissue, sports massage, pre and post natal, swedish, PNF, reflexology and traditional Chinese medicine. I have traveled to Thailand and New Zealand, where I studied Thai massage and heated stone therapy and most recently, became certified in auricular acupuncture.

I am super attracted to color and funky high-contrast print. I love textiles, stationary, snail mail, fresh herbs, off-the-cuff cooking, prime numbers and old doors and windows.

   
  Lola Stoyanovitch. Esthetician and graduate of Douglas J. Aveda Academy in Ann Arbor.

Growing up in Northern Michigan made me appreciate the outdoors and all of its pursuits, from Lake Michigan iceberg hiking to cornfield adventures. I love yummy essential oils, aromas that enthrall the senses and organic, local products that surprise and delight me. I love to feel the earth beneath my feet in my new fiver finger shoes and the sensation of every new season. At the spa, I love to hear the stories that my clients share and to make each visit a customized adventure.

   
  Jessica Minor. I have been a massage therapist since 2004. I studied at the College of Natural Health in Orlando Florida where I received an AS degree in natural health and my national certification. I love what I do and have a strong desire to help and heal people. I'm all about my awesome husband, my kids, standing up for what's right, Twisted Sister, Thai food, alpacas, red wine, fields full of sunflowers, smelly animals, the ocean, ice cream, planting and growing, trampolines, disco parties, Dark Side of the Moon, Rabbit in the Moon and the truth.
   
 

Jennifer Sack. Helping heal people through touch has always been my passion.  I am the youngest of seven children and of all the women in my family are natural healers and have been for generations.  It was not until I received my BS in Chemistry and became a mother of three children that healing through touch became a part of my daily life.  I am certified in Reflexology, Reiki and Nutritional Supplements.  I love to read, learn, cook with fresh herbs, walk through the woods, and gaze at the stars. I am at my happiest when I hear children laughing.
