The Amethyst Salon and Spa Nikkisha's Healing Hands LLC

About The Practitioners

Nikkisha Hedrick
Owner/Licensed Massage Therapist studied at Midwest Institute in Earth City, MO

We are beginning to see holistic care and medical care join forces. I want to be part of this process! I believe both are needed to live a healthy, happy life!

I was in the health care field for 13 years before deciding to go to massage therapy school, my mother in law had tried to get me to go for years. I never thought I would enjoy doing massages, but boy was I wrong! After a little extra push from God, I decide to give it a try!! I love helping people and could not imagine a better field to be a part of! I have been doing massage now for 3 years and opened the salon and spa June of 2017!

I am married to an amazing man named Josh, and we have an 11-year-old son together named Kyle. During our free time we enjoy racing, and just enjoying family time together. I work side by side with some beautiful and talented ladies, we make an amazing team!
