Welcome to Meridian Skin Studio! I'm Angela, a Licensed Esthetician and Wellness Practitioner.

I carefully curate my treatments using results driven, clean clinical formulas alongside pure, organic botanicals to deeply nourish the skin barrier. Because true skin health goes deeper than the surface, I integrate soothing mindfulness techniques, specialized sensory tools, and breath work into every session.

Lisa Lowther
The Healing Tree
Intuitive Quantum Healer
Hi, I’m Lisa. As a natural born medium and medical intuitive, communicating with spirit was always second nature. After losing my youngest brother, tragically and unexpectedly about 20 years ago, I had a spontaneous kundalini awakening which initiated healing abilities. The electromagnetic field generated by heart started flowing through my hands, and this field is able to influence physical states and allow calm. I was intuitively guided to touch a tree to balance my energy while in the throes of grieving my brother’s passing and was amazed at how quickly my body, mind and spirit aligned. After this, I began my quest of finding others that could help me along my healing journey and understand the new role that spirit had set before me. Shortly after, I realized I was spiritually initiated as a shamanic healer. These new abilities heightened my senses, and I could now communicate with spirit more easily and help shift energy more efficiently. I became certified as a thetahealer ™, received training in Reiki, and wrote a book called “Journey to the Healing Tree” about my spiritual awareness. I am so humbled and grateful for the beauty and healing offered in my time of need. By connecting to my heart center, I allow spirit to guide me in healing sessions. I feel blessed to now hold space for others along their path of wellbeing.
