Josh
MEDICAL QIGONG + THAI MASSAGE
Natural medicine has always been a passion for Josh as he works to bring balance in every interaction. Josh began his healing career 20+ years ago when he studied herbalism & supplements before living abroad in Thailand where he learned Traditional Thai Massage from the Buddhist temple that has been teaching this modality for 400+ years.
Since then Josh has been working with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and the esoteric world of Taoism. Josh completed his 3-year Medical Qigong Practitioner program with Chi Wellness Center in 2022 under the instruction of Debra Lin Allen, a 5th generation Qigong healer. Josh invites you to experience his intuitive touch and uncanny ability to listen, observe & bring clarity to unconscious patterns that keep us from our ultimate health & happiness.

ABOUT JOSH:
It is evident after meeting Josh that he love connection and listening. Josh loves to bring practical wisdom to life by helping people open up and experience that they have a depth, power and voice. He helps open up people’s intuition to what they already know and gives them the confidence to trust what their body is telling them.
“I give you space to open up and share. It is this very process that allows us to root out the underlying issues before we begin to use your own awareness and intuition to unravel these energetic knots that buildup throughout life.”
IDEAL CUSTOMER:
Anyone who feels stuck either energetically or physically needs a session with Josh. He has a strong, compassionate touch that unlocks and relaxes the body using acupressure points to stimulate both the body and energy body. Sessions often leave patients giddy with relaxation.
Josh also has had great success working with patients with chronic, auto-immune diseases that want to work on the root issues of clearing both emotional & physical inflammation. He not only provides energetic clearing similar to acupuncture but provides you with the tools and wisdom to take your health in your own hands and trust your own bodies signals and wisdom.
HIDDEN TALENTS:
Josh loves making spaces beautiful and inviting. In fact, he is responsible for most of the design at Ivy+Oak. In addition to being a healing practitioner, Josh continues his creative career as a video producer, creative director, project manager and business consultant.
QIGONG TESTIMONIAL:
“I’ve had 4 sessions + the consultation appointment with Josh and if you’re reading this review and debating qigong- schedule that consultation and you’ll see that you’re at the right place. I have benefited so much from my sessions with Josh. He is an extremely wise healer, therapist, teacher, and motivator all in one. He always creates a safe place for all of my vulnerable emotions and fears. I have learned so much and feel very fortunate to have found him.” — Alena
THAI MASSAGE TESTIMONIAL:
“Joshua’s Thai massage was a brand-new experience of healing and revitalization unlike any I’ve experienced before. I floated for the rest of the day and couldn’t find words to describe the bliss to my family.” — Pamela
Javon
ESTHETICIAN + FACIALS + WAXING + MAKEUP
My passion for skin care began with my own skin as I battled with cystic acne for 15 years before deciding I wanted to help others feel both comfortable and confident in their own skin.
It was a struggle to find someone that understood my unique skin so I decided in 2019 that I wanted to provide a safe and inclusive space to help others with the same concerns. I became certified in microdermabrasion, chemical peels and lasers at College of International Esthetics and since graduating I’ve expanded my service list and arsenal of knowledge to ensure all skin types and ages can target their concerns and leave feeling radiant.
I merge holistic and medical skincare modalities to ensure all skin looks and feels its best. Whether you doesn’t know where to start with skin health or you simply need some support your skin care regiment I’m here to support everyone with a safe space.
