REMM

Slow down. Breathe. Relax.

About me & REMM

Ralitsa, founder of REMM

My name is Ralitsa and I am the founder of REMM.

I understand the effect stress can have on the body, from panic and anxiety, to hair loss, muscle tension and inability to sleep, all while being a parent and having a demanding corporate job. Looking after my body through movement, breath work and calming down my nervous system helped me find my way back to myself.

I started REMM because I wanted to create a safe space where you can come to when life moves too fast. Here you can slow down, find deep rest and reconnect with your body. I believe that relaxation and results are not a trade off. You will receive a facial that truly cares for your skin while your body stays in deep relaxation.

The massage is at the heart of every session. A calming, fascia release massage will melt away accumulated stress and tension in the face, neck, jaw and scalp. The same massage that helps your body relax will also support your skin by easing tension, improving circulation, and creating the conditions your skin needs to repair itself.

If you want to finally be able to switch off your brain and let your body relax, I’d love to welcome you to REMM.

With love,

Ralitsa

The location

REMM is located at Stretch&Fold in Amsterdam Noord. It's a communal space with movement classes, a restaurant, cafe, rooftop swimming pool and a sauna. It’s the perfect spot if you want to visit for the whole day or just pop in between meetings.

The treatment room is located next to the yoga studio. It’s a cosy and inviting space where you can slow down and relax.

The Facial

Deeply rested

This is a nervous system reset disguised as a facial.

I offer one core experience built around nervous system support and bespoke care for your skin. All you need to choose is how long you would like your treatment to be.

This treatment is especially well suited to you if you hold demanding roles at work or at home like a high-pressure job, frequent travel, parenthood, or simply have been feeling the relentless load of everyday life.

The facial is centered entirely around bringing you out of the demands and pace of your daily life and helping you enter a state of deep, reparative rest. Guided meditation and breath work are woven throughout the experience to ground you and help you reconnect with your body. A large part of the session is dedicated to a fascia release massage that will melt away tension in your face, jaw, neck and scalp.

While your nervous system settles, your skin is cared for with the same level of attention. After a thorough consultation, I will personalize your treatment to your skin's unique needs. When it gets to skin my focus is on repair, protection and maintenance of your skin's barrier health.

You will leave feeling deeply rested, grounded and with a wider capacity to go back to everyday life.

Your visit

1. Consultation and personalized guidance

Every session begins with a conversation about your skin, lifestyle and your skincare routine at home. This helps me identify the root cause of why your skin is behaving the way it is, and helps me provide you with clarity on what is the best approach for your skin during treatments and at home.

2. Treatment

A calming experience combining guided meditation and breath work to help you settle in and relax, while your skin gets looked after with a cleanse, gentle exfoliation, targeted mask and serums. The massage is at the center of the whole facial, melting away tension in the face, jaw, neck and scalp.

3. Home care guide

After your facial I will follow up with a home care guide with a detailed explanation on why your skin is behaving the way it is, and I will put together a home care routine for you.

FAQ

Experience

What does nervous system reset mean?

Your nervous system is your body’s command center: it constantly scans your environment, processes sensory input and stands behind all conscious thought, moods and emotional experiences. It also regulates automatic functions like breathing and heartbeat. A dysregulated nervous system is stuck in a fight-or-flight response, it can no longer return to a balanced state and remains overly sensitive. Symptoms include chronic fatigue, a racing heartbeat, anxiety, muscle tension and irritability.

To regulate, you have to bypass your logical thinking and send physical signals of safety to your brain to shift to a relaxed state. I will help you let go and enter a deep reparative state through breath work and a calm massage, signaling your body that it’s safe to relax and repair. That is the reset.

Is this more of a facial or more of a massage?

It is both. After a consultation I will get an understanding of what your skin needs at that moment and will fully customize the ingredients and treatment. Your facial will include a cleanse, enzyme peel, serums and a mask fit for your skin. The massage is in the center of the whole facial, and the whole experience will feel like a mix of me working on your skin and a massage melting away tension areas in the face, neck, jaw and scalp.

Why such a big focus on relaxation?

If you are dealing with inflammatory conditions like acne or rosacea you probably already know that your skin gets worse when you’re stressed. We have to make sure you are relaxed whilst addressing your skin concerns. Otherwise it will be like mopping the floor with the water still running.

Skin

I’ve never been to a facial. Can I still come?

Yes absolutely! We’ll spend some time understanding your skin, lifestyle and needs and will tailor a treatment you would feel comfortable to start with.

I don’t have a home care routine. Can you help me with that?

Yes absolutely! You will receive a thorough consultation before every treatment and a detailed home care plan on how to address your skin needs.

Practical

Can I walk in for a treatment?

I work by appointment only and you can book on my website. If you’d need me to accommodate a specific need, please contact me directly.

Where is the treatment room?

The treatment room is located at the back of the yoga studio in a private and quiet part of the space. I will be waiting for you to arrive at the cafe and we’ll go to the treatment room together.

What should I wear?

Wear clothes you feel comfortable in so you can fully relax. You will only need to pull down the straps of your top so I have access to your chest and arms. I will give you a moment to get ready by yourself.

Where can I park?

There are plenty of parking spots close to Stretch & Fold. The rate is €1,72 per hour.

Can I wear make up?

Ideally arrive without make up, however if that’s not possible I will check with you in advance if you would like your eye make up removed.

Cancellation policy

Rescheduling and cancelling can be done until 48 hours prior to your appointment. After 48 hours there will be a charge of 50% of the value of the treatment. Cancellations within 8 hours prior to your appointment will be charged fully. Please respect my time and cancellation policy.
