Meet Our Team
Hi My Glowgetters Meet Our Team!
Massage Team Member
Gabriela Villa
Relaxation Massage Specialist/Lymphatic Massage Specialist/ RMT Graduate 2024
Meet our new team member, Gabriela Villa Paredes. She is a RMT graduate and certified in European Manual Lymphatic Massage. Since she was little Gabriela has been raised in the spa world, where her passion for health and wellness began.
Gabriela's passion for health and wellness grew when she began to work as a vegan cook in 2021 as she learned the importance of nutrition. She became a certified specialist in Lymphatic Drainage in 2023 after her mother received an emergency surgery which required lymphatic massage on the daily to just help her to live a normal life.
Gabriela is certified in Relaxation Massage in 2023 and trained by her mother Ivette Paredes to provide more holistic modalities. She graduate in December 2024 as a RMT top of her class. She is currently waiting under way to become registered to accept insurance and she loves helping clients with pain relief and share her knowledge for a better quality of life.
She is available weekdays and Saturdays.
Gabriela does NOT offer any reiki healing or sound therapy!

I was born a natural healer, have study ancient healing Chinese Medicine in order to heal the body from pain through my Holistic Massage Techniques. I incorporate Sound Therapy and Reiki Healing, among other Ayurvedic modalities which makes me unique!
After seen the lack in the industry, I made a decision to incorporating the spiritual, mindful and the latest skincare technology aspect all in one. I decided to create a true relaxing space where you can receive what you desire all in one place while achieving results. This is how Glow By Ive was born 6 years ago….
I look forward to pamper you!
