About

Calming Influence opened in 2007 in Midtown Memphis and was founded by Gene Elliott, a massage therapist. The business describes itself as a sanctuary in the neighborhood and as a place for healing in Memphis. The team includes massage therapists, an aesthetician and a manager, and the studio is open Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 7 PM, Saturday from 9 AM to 5 PM, and Sunday from 11 AM to 6 PM.

Massage options include therapeutic, relaxation, prenatal and sports sessions, deep tissue work, and couples massage, which can add deep tissue for a small fee per person. Facials are Yon-Ka Paris treatments customized after a skin analysis, and the menu also includes Image Skin Care peels and microdermabrasion. Body treatments use essential oils, sea salt, mineral-rich mud and paraffin wax, and the sinus steam session uses herbal steam with eucalyptus.

Spa packages run about two or three hours and combine steam, salt glow, paraffin dip, dry brush, mud wrap and massage. A shorter Calming Aroma package runs about 75 minutes. Guests can also book single treatments a la carte, such as a steam canopy, a dry brush exfoliation or aromatherapy added to a massage.

Waxing covers the face, body, legs and bikini areas, and lash and brow tinting uses semi-permanent vegetable dyes that last several weeks. Facials and waxing are available all day on Thursdays. Appointments can be booked online or by phone, the business has a cancellation policy, and street parking is available along Cooper St. and Jefferson Ave.

Treatments are tailored to the client, with facials customized after a skin analysis and massage technique chosen to suit the concern. The business presents its work as aimed at healing and relaxation.
