OCEAN DAY SPA TEAM
Ali - Owner
A note from the owner:
My first experience with Ocean Day Spa was in 2004 as a client when ODS instantly became a place of healing and relaxation for me. I became a loyal client for the next 11 years. Massage therapy became an intricate part of my health and wellness and the staff became like family. In the fall of 2015 I found out the business was being sold. Knowing how much I loved ODS I was approached by the owner to see if I was interested in continuing its legacy. My family and I are happy to share the same love, same care and same vision with all of you that kept me coming back for so many years. We look forward to seeing you. - Ali

Dr. Jennifer Neff, M.D. and Medical Acupuncturist
Dr. Neff has been practicing medicine for over 25 years. She is a family doctor with a passion for Integrative Medicine, and has been integrating Medical Acupuncture into her practice of medicine since 2003. Her awareness of different healing paradigms provides a broad range of options for improving and managing patient's physical, emotional and psychological conditions. She uses Medical Acupuncture and a mind/body/spirit approach to help each client move toward health and wellness.
A note from Dr. Neff :
Healing from a medical or emotional condition is a journey. Often it takes more time than expected to find our way to wellness. While Western Medicine is very effective for certain issues and problems, it falls short with many others. Factors such as stress and poor nutritional choices can create patterns of dysfunction and disease in our lives that cannot be helped with medications. Acupuncture is excellent for bridging the gap between where you are and where you want to be with your health.
Medical Acupuncture has been my passion since I completed my training in 2003. Acupuncture is an energetic healing method that can raise the vibrational level of the individual and allow them to more easily heal, shift and make lifestyle changes. This, in turn, improves their ability to manage and recover from medical conditions and emotional challenges.
The most inspiring aspect of my work as a Medical Acupuncturist is evaluating and treating each patient as a unique individual with a unique set of problems. There are many paths to a solution, and each individual has their own unique path. These solutions vary based on the person’s medical diagnoses, symptoms, lifestyle, quality of life, emotional state and stressors. I provide Medical Acupuncture to help patients through their medical healing journey individually and thoughtfully."

Ashley - Sr. DUAL Massage Therapist and Esthetician
A note from Ashley:
When I was younger I always loved giving my friends and family back massages. My Grandfather told me I had healing hands and should become a Massage Therapist. I took his advice and made a career of it. I love when clients come out of the massage room without the pain and stress they had when they arrived. My history with skincare started when I was a teenager and even into my early adult years I suffered with acne. I know the struggle people face when they look in the mirror and see acne and scarring. I was embarrassed to get my photo taken and was even apprehensive going out in public. I would always put a large amount of foundation on to help cover it up. I started working at Ocean Day Spa in the Fall of 2009 as a Massage Therapist and I quickly fell in love with learning about all the skincare product they carried. I started using these products at home and added monthly micro-dermabrasion and peels to my skincare routine. Within just a few months my skin started healing. I was elated knowing what to use and how to improve my skin and I wanted to do this for others. I received my esthetician License in 2011. I feel a great sense of accomplishment in my work as a massage therapist and esthetician.

A note from Kate:
My aunt who I have admired since I was little gave me the idea of Massage Therapy. I entered school and received my very first full body massage. I couldn't believe how great I felt. The feeling of being relaxed, healed and rejuvenated made me fall in love with Massage Therapy. I wanted to share that feeling with other people. It's a great feeling to be able to make someone feel that way.

Em - Esthetician
A note from Em:
Since I was in high school I've always had a love for skin! I worked as a receptionist three years at a spa and always got so excited when someone had skin care questions. I finally decided to go to school to be an esthetician and have loved working as one since. I love being able to help people with their skin, whether it's helping a teen with clearing their skin or a mature client preventing aging. It's all so fun for me and I love being able to make someone feel beautiful!

Samantha "Sammy" - Massage Therapist
A note from Sammy:
I became a massage therapist because I naturally have an affinity for helping others, and once I learned the power of a quality therapeutic touch, I knew that this was my profession. When I was in massage school, I thought I had weak ankles for years, when really it was tight muscles that needed to be released. Finally, I understood that massage isn't just for pure relaxation or a luxury, but it was a powerful healing practice. I gravitate towards giving a calming, therapeutic massage with light to firm pressure."
