About

Apex Retreat was founded by Fernanda Santiago and Dean Hebert. The site says the business has served more than 1,000 wellness clients, reports an average client rating of 4.9, and lists 11 or more therapeutic and holistic specialties. These are the business's own figures.

Care is built around each client's goals, comfort level and needs, and the therapist may adjust the session while working. The emphasis is on helping clients take an active part in their well-being and feel more in control of their health. New clients can download and complete an intake form before their first appointment. Clients choose a therapist and book through that therapist's booking link or contact information; the general contact email is apexretreat@gmail.com.

Apex Retreat Seminars, founded by Fernanda Santiago, offers continuing education for licensed massage therapists and wellness professionals, including advanced facial therapies and holistic techniques. Tai Chi classes are held outdoors on the lawn on Wednesdays at 9:30 am. Each class lasts 30 minutes and costs $10, and participants reserve a place in advance through a button on the class page.

Eligible therapeutic massage services can be paid for with HSA or FLEX funds. The salon has a policy covering cancelled appointments, changes to bookings and missed visits.

Sessions are shaped around each client's goals and comfort, and the emphasis is on helping clients feel more in control of their health.
