The studio sits at 5480 Baltimore Drive in La Mesa and works with clients from La Mesa and the wider San Diego area. Facials are tailored to each client, and biomagnetism can be gently added to a facial when it suits the person.
Biomagnetism, also called Biomagnetic Pair Therapy, was discovered in 1988 by the Mexican physician Isaac Goiz Duran. In a session, magnet pairs are placed on specific areas of the body while the client rests fully clothed, in a calm, quiet setting with no pressure or stimulation. The studio presents it as a complementary practice meant to work alongside medical care rather than replace it, and it points to research on static magnetic fields while noting that findings vary.
Signature options include The Alchemy Rite, a 60-minute facial that blends massage, lymphatic drainage, breathwork and magnetic placements, and the Athena Reset, a 45-minute session that the studio says is designed to support mitochondrial function, cellular energy and nervous system balance. Ancestral Sobada is a 30-minute traditional Mexican abdominal practice, which the studio describes as a cultural wellness practice rather than a massage.
Before a facial, clients are asked to arrive with clean skin and to avoid strong exfoliants, retinoids and other active treatments for at least 48 hours. Most clients have little to no downtime afterward, according to the studio. Cancellations or reschedules need at least 24 hours' notice, and late cancellations or missed appointments may incur a fee.
Facials are designed to support the skin barrier and long-term skin health rather than quick visible results, and biomagnetism can be woven in when appropriate.
Biomagnetism sessions are calm and quiet, with the client fully clothed and no pressure or stimulation.
