Laura
Founder, Holistic Health Practitioner & Esthetician
(She/Her)
​
Welcome to our sanctuary. Hi, I’m Laura, and I’ve spent over two decades immersed in the art of wellness. At Bosk, I invite you to step away from the noise and into a space designed for deep restoration. It’s not just about the 'look'—it’s about the soul. I prioritize the balance between healthy skin and the way you carry yourself in the world.
​
As a holistic health practitioner, I'm trained as a reiki master, massage therapist, and esthetician, bridging the gap between clinical expertise and intuitive healing. My signature Somatic Buccal and Reiki Facials are a bespoke blend of Eastern and Western modalities, curated to meet your skin exactly where it is, providing quality products and lymphatic support. I work to not only reveal radiant skin, but to reset the nervous system.
With a love for plants and a deep understanding of the mind-body connection, I blend the best of nature’s offerings with mindful self-care practices to nourish the skin and support overall well-being. I don’t believe in "anti-aging." Instead, I advocate for well-aging—the practice of navigating the passage of time with grace, vitality, and confidence.
​
I also provide coaching and mentorship for those ready to align their daily lives with intentional living. I offer monthly wellness workshops, that include fun somatic and art therapy processes, as I believe these are integral parts to transformative healing. My mission is to help you navigate the journey of aging, (and life in general) treasuring in the small moments with a sense of purpose and holistic joy.
​
When I’m not at Bosk, you’ll likely find me getting lost in nature or in a book, creating, or supporting the vibrant scenes (food, film, music, art, comedy) that make Portland so special. I am a mother, a friend, an ally, a dreamer, a lover of long baths, and a frequent wanderer of the woods with my little wolf pack.
​ Wherever you may be on your journey, I look forward to meeting you there.

Hello, I’m Gabrielle, and I’m so happy you’re here! My journey into holistic wellness began with a deep love for nature and a desire to live in harmony with my body. Over the years, I’ve learned that true beauty and well-being go hand in hand—when we feel good, we glow from the inside out. My passion has always been helping others feel empowered, balanced, and confident in their own skin.
Much like nature, our skin thrives when it’s nourished, supported, and allowed to restore itself. My work as an esthetician is rooted in this philosophy—embracing a holistic approach that encourages balance from the inside out. With a focus on massage, relaxation, and whole-body wellness, my treatments are designed to be more than just skincare—they’re an opportunity to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.
I work closely with my clients to uncover the root causes of their skin concerns, guiding them on a journey to healthy, glowing skin. Our skin is a reflection of our overall well-being—stress, lack of sleep, and poor nutrition all play a role. My goal is to help you get back on track, whether that means addressing the underlying causes of your skin concerns or simply providing a space where you can fully relax and reset.
Beyond skincare, yoga is a huge part of my life, and I’m so excited to share that passion at Bosk as a yoga instructor. Just like in my skincare practice, my yoga teaching is centered on mindfulness, deep relaxation, and tuning into the body’s natural rhythms. Whether you're on the treatment table or the yoga mat, my goal is to create a space where you feel supported, nurtured, and restored.
I’m so grateful to be part of Bosk and look forward to working with you—both in the treatment room and on the mat!

Massage Therapist

Hello! I’m Shaina, a licensed massage therapist devoted to creating deeply restorative experiences through intentional touch and holistic care. I’m honored to be a part of the talented Bosk healing community!
My path into bodywork began in my early twenties while studying holistic health, where I developed a deep appreciation for the body’s innate wisdom and its natural ability to return to balance when given the right support. Though I spent years exploring creative paths in art, design, and hospitality, everything shifted during my first pregnancy when I experienced prenatal massage. That moment revealed the profound healing power of touch and inspired me to pursue massage therapy as my life’s work. I later completed my training at East West College of the Healing Arts.
My work is guided by presence, intuition, and deep listening. I offer slow, flowing sessions designed to help the body soften, release tension, and settle into a state of deep relaxation. Drawing from Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, neuromuscular therapy, and craniosacral techniquess, each session is thoughtfully
tailored to meet your body exactly where it is.
Clients often describe feeling profoundly relaxed, nurtured, and supported—as though their bodies finally had space to unwind and restore. My intention is to create a peaceful, grounded environment where you can fully let go and reconnect with a sense of ease within yourself.
Outside the treatment room, I enjoy creating art with my partner, goofing around with my kids, connecting with friends, playing outdoors and delighting in our beautiful mossy forests.
If you’re ready to ease stress, relieve discomfort, or simply come home to your body, I would be honored to help guide you there.
