A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER KIMMIE

A Philosophy Gathered From the World.

Warm and relaxing treatment room inspired by the Salt & Rind experience.

I’ve always believed the best skincare isn't invented - it's gathered.

Every ritual at Salt & Rind carries something home from somewhere in the world. A lifting technique from Japan. A Swiss approach to nervous system regulation. Traditions chosen not because they’re trendy, but because they work.

This is skincare that feels like travel.

Her Story

How do you feel?

Tell us where you are today - your skin and your body - and we'll guide you to the right ritual.

Decompression Theory: gua sha, buccal massage, and bodywork melt jaw, neck, and shoulder tension while your skin is refined.
Contour Theory: glass cupping and lifting techniques wake circulation and bring definition back.
Surface Theory: enzymes and corrective peels smooth texture, refine pores, and even tone.
The Clearing: deep extractions and high-frequency clear congestion and calm inflammation.
World Tour: a seasonal, globally inspired facial - this season, a Swiss Alpine Reset.
The Ritual: our members-only signature, customized every visit.

Our Approach

Arrive › Regulate › Refine › Renew

We blend techniques gathered from around the world with intuitive, hands-on work - in a space where your skin is truly read and your nervous system is truly cared for. Every treatment is built in the moment, around the skin and the body you walk in with that day.

"Kimmie is the best!! She makes the whole sugaring process feel so comfortable, like you’re just hanging out with a friend instead of getting hair removed. She’s extremely sweet, so personable, and genuinely cares about your comfort the entire time. The whole space is super clean and welcoming, and you can tell she’s amazing at what she does because the results speak for themselves. Honestly, 11/10 would recommend and am already looking forward to my next appointment!"
