Services
Therapeutic Massage
Our therapeutic massage services combine Swedish, deep tissue, and sports techniques with specialized modalities like Thai yoga and prenatal massage. Each session addresses chronic tension, improves circulation, and promotes emotional well-being through customized pressure and duration options ranging from 30 to 120 minutes. The treatment includes optional aromatherapy and hot towel enhancements.
Traditional Acupuncture
Based on 2,000-year-old Chinese medicine principles, our acupuncture treatments use ultra-fine needles to stimulate energy flow and address conditions from chronic pain to emotional imbalances. Initial consultations include comprehensive health assessments, followed by personalized treatment plans with 60-90 minute sessions targeting specific meridians for optimal healing.
Non-Toxic Manicures
Choose between Dazzle Dry quick-drying polish and Madam Glam vegan gel formulas for manicures and pedicures that prioritize health and sustainability. Both systems eliminate harsh chemicals while providing long-lasting wear, with application including cuticle work, nail shaping, and hand massage using AVEDA's nourishing creme.
Custom Facials
Tailored facial treatments utilize AVEDA, BiON, and Rhonda Allison products to address individual skin concerns through 30-90 minute sessions. The service combines deep cleansing, hydration, and targeted treatments using plant-based ingredients and advanced techniques like dermaplaning and plant-based peels for visible texture improvement.
Hot Stone Massage
This 60-90 minute treatment employs heated basalt stones to relax muscles and improve circulation. The therapy integrates deep tissue work with temperature therapy, allowing muscle release without intense pressure. Ideal for stress relief and chronic tension, the session combines traditional massage techniques with strategic stone placement for holistic benefits.

I am very upset about my most recent experience at Willow Bridge. I Was told two sessions would be needed to get to what I wanted, was fine with that. First appointment stylist quoted me around 150, and told me that I should expect to pay 150 or even less for the next session. I left with amazing hair, exited for my next appointment. My stylist unexpectedly quit, so I rescheduled with someone else for my next appointment.
Second appointment rolls around, came prepared to pay 150, as the previous stylist told me it would be, but the second stylist quoted me over 300 dollars for the same service the other stylist said would be no more than 150. Why would the pricing so drastically change? Had to completely change the service that I came in to do, and was embarrassed in the process because I could not afford the services I was originally booked for.
Left with my hair looking hardly any different than it did originally, my friends and family couldn't even see a difference. I was charged ~200 including tip. Didn't want to leave a tip, but decided to be courteous because the stylist was very nice. I feel ripped off, I will not be returning.

I have had excellent service here every single time I've come in. Massages, hair cuts, hair colors. The moment you walk in the door, the woman at the front desk makes you feel like an old friend. She is the epitome of everything that good customer service should be. The stylists are wonderful and everyone in staff is so friendly. So happy this place is right near my home.

Amazing stylists here! All staff are very friendly. Jess did incredible with a diffifult color-correction on my dark hair! She knew how to blow-out my curls without the frizz! Kelsey is so personable and did great at blending up my bleached ends into a small balayage. Shannon is so good at men's cuts! My boyfriend's hair looked great. Mindy did awesome at an edgy a-line cut for my little sister that she adored. Amanda gave me a wonderful cut and a classy style for my curls
