Hello! I’m Rachael Simon. I love helping people discover the confidence that comes from healthy, radiant skin.
I was born in England and my parents owned a guest house in Scotland. I was surrounded from an early age with people and cultures from all over the world. Learning about skin from both sides of the Atlantic has given me a unique approach to skin care. After moving to the States, I was able to continue with my love of “everything skin”. Which inspired me to forge the vision that has become Nurture!
As the owner of Nurture Salon and Skin Care Studio, it’s my mission to create tailored results for each client who comes through my door. With a combination of the right products, state-of-the-art equipment, and a relational approach, my clients walk out the door feeling relaxed, refreshed, and loving the skin they’re in!
"What started out as a professional visit based on a recommendation from a friend, what was supposed to be a one-time visit, has turned into a 9-year wonderful friendship. You're more than a customer with Rachael, and Nurture is more than just a salon; it's a place to go after taking care of everyone else's needs all day long that gives you the recharge to do it all over again tomorrow. Rachel's services are thorough, efficient, trusted, and unreplicable. If you're in need of a little love for yourself, go see Rachael, she's got you covered."

LED Skin Therapy Treatments
As we age, cellular damage starts to occur. Over time, this damage can lead to multiple problems including:
-
fine lines and wrinkles
-
pigmentation
-
increased skin roughness
-
significant decrease in the production of collagen and elastin
Over the past 20 years, light therapy has been scientifically and clinically proven to noticeably improve a variety of skin concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone and texture, and prolonged redness.
This noninvasive process converts light therapy into usable cellular energy. New energy is then used by the body to restore a youthful appearance and revitalize the health of the damaged tissue. It is also designed to significantly reduce the P. acnes, the bacteria responsible for causing acne, while reducing the inflammation, pimples and redness associated with acne.
There are many options when it comes to LED Skin Therapy Treatments, and treatments can be customized specifically to fit your skin’s unique needs.
LIGHTWAVE LED Treatments
LIGHTWAVE’s Light Therapy is a safe, natural, pain-free treatment option that uses a powerful dosage of red, blue, and infrared light to effectively stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and revive aging tissue. LIGHTWAVE Treatments can treat:
-

Anti Aging
45 min
Erase years from your face. Utilizing LIGHTWAVE’s Red and/or IR Light, this treatment series is designed to re-hydrate the face and increase collagen and elastin formation resulting in a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. It aids in decreasing flaccidity, lifting sagging tissues, and restoring skin tone and texture for an overall improvement.
10 treatments are recommended. Maintenance once a month or as needed can prolong the youthful appearance.
Pigmentation
45 min
Recover your skin tone. Utilizing LIGHTWAVE’s Red and/or IR Light, this treatment series is intended to improve discoloration caused by sun damage, chemical build-up, and chemical reactions from chemical peels, and excessive use of skin damaging products. This process normalizes the melanin within the skin. The number of treatments needed vary depending on the amount of damage to the skin, the thickness of the skin and the age of the client.
8-10 treatments recommended.
Scars
45 min
Reduce unsightly scarring. Utilizing LIGHTWAVE’s Red and/or IR Light, this treatment series uses powerful Infrared and red light to stimulate the reduction of fibrotic tissue and the replacement of normal tissue. Clients usually notice the softening of scar tissue. They also notice flattening and widening of the scar. This is a normal sequence in scar reduction. With several more sessions the flat, wide scar will become thinner and remain flat.
Treatment sequencing varies. Prior consultation is recommended.
Flaccid Skin
45 min
Get tighter, smoother, younger looking skin. Utilizing LIGHTWAVE’s Red and/or IR Light, this treatment series focuses on skin retraction by increasing circulation and bringing nutrition to damaged tissue. This program is particularly effective over the abdomen, neck and upper chest. Treatments should be applied twice per week.
10-15 treatments recommended.
Rosacea / Inflamed Skin
45 min
Get a long-term solution to irritated skin. This program is designed to address Rosacea and other skin inflammatory conditions including Rosacea symptoms. Clients have seen remarkable benefits by incorporating intense red and infrared light. It utilizes 15 minutes of continuous narrowband red light followed by 15 minutes of continuous narrow band IR light to obtain optimal results.
8-10 treatments recommended to start. Monthly treatments offer better long term results.
Mild to moderate Acne / Oil Control
45 min
Break free from acne! Utilizing LIGHTWAVE’s Red and/or IR Light, this treatment series is designed to repair damaged skin and significantly reduce the P. acnes, the bacteria responsible for causing inflammatory acne vulgaris. After cleansing, the client undergoes 15 minutes of Blue light that first enters the sebaceous glands and singlet oxygen is created, which your body utilizes to kill bacteria. Next, the client is exposed to 15 minutes of red light. This acne treatment aids in the healing process of the skin and prevents infection and scarring from occurring.
8-10 treatments recommended to start. Monthly treatments offer better long term results.
Moderate to Severe Acne
45 min
Blue light (wavelength 405nm-450nm) provides a very superficial penetration even with a high-intensity narrow band light source. It is primarily absorbed by the epidermis of the skin. Once it is absorbed, blue light targets P. acnes by stimulating porphyrins which then produce intracellular singlet oxygen, which your body uses to kill bacteria. This highly effective treatment can also aid with acne scarring and pigmentation.
8-10 treatments recommended to start. Monthly treatments offer better long-term results.
LED Topical Infusion
LIGHTWAVE Topical Light Infusion (TLi) therapy is a skin care process that infuses active skin care ingredients into the upper layers of the skin to stimulate positive visible changes more rapidly than traditional facial treatments. TLi can create dramatic results such as:
