Pain is not a lifestyle!

Do you spend more time and money maintaining your car than you spend maintaining your body? Just as you get regular oil changes and tire rotations to prevent your motor vehicle from breakdowns, regular massages prevent pain and even injury.  Located in a quiet residential neighbourhood, BeesKnees is here to be the body shop for your soul vehicle because you wear your body every day.

Because you wear your body every day, it should be the thing that you take the best care of. Just as you regularly maintain your vehicle without thinking twice about it, you ought to be regularly maintaining your soul vehicle. Each and every massage includes hot Synergy Stones, diffused aromatherapy and other specific products tailored to the goals of your session. You will notice that you will never pay for a type of massage but for time. Because of this, you can be confident that your goals will be addressed in your session whether they be relaxation or pain relief. Conveniently located in the Wando Woods neighborhood of North Charleston right off exit 15 of 526, BeesKnees is a residential based spa proudly improving the daily quality of life of the citizens (and the occasional visitor) of the greater Charleston area.

*When parking, please pull directly in front of the brick steps so as to leave vehicular access to the garage. Clients are advised that there are friendly dogs on and three steps into the premises - see below.

Dixie is the greeter. She is loud but has no follow-through. Angel will stay on the couch until her FOMO gets the better of her. Both would be thrilled join you during your session. Just ask! 

Green Initiative

BeesKnees strongly believes in wise and responsible use of resources. To that end, as much as possible, all products and consumables are sourced from companies that are local and sustainable. If something must be sourced from out of state it must “give back” in some way. Currently; the preferred brand of essential oil is Simply Earth, which donates 13% of their proceeds to eradicating human trafficking; the Sacred Earth massage cream used during your session is certified vegan and organic, and the EcoFin products used in the Feet Treet are paraffin free and compostable. Feel free to ask about other ways BeesKnees tries to stay green!

About Joanna

When she graduated from High School, Joanna was encouraged to become a Massage Therapist but at the time had no interest. After five interesting college years studying Women's Ministries in Greenville, SC, she then taught in Seoul South Korea for three years. There she fell in love with the spa culture. In Korea, people go to their local jimjilbang (bathhouse) like we here in America would get manicures or meet at the local brewery: it is a place of meeting and of caring for oneself and very often an intergenerational experience. Shortly after returning to the States, she enrolled into Massage School at Elgin Community College in the suburbs of Chicago. Ten years after rejecting the notion of being a LMT, she found herself in love with a career that she never could have imagined.

Licensed since 2011 and having worked in a variety of settings ranging from the medical to the spa, Joanna began working out of her home in 2015 shortly after moving to South Carolina. While proficient in many modalities, she specializes in massage that takes care of your day-to-day living. She is also a certified Integrative Reflexologist and certified Sacrologist.
