Anyone who knows Amber Morgan will tell you she has chosen the right profession. Her warm smile and caring nature are the ideal combination for someone who does skin and body work. Heck, she\u2019s one of the best huggers you\u2019ll ever meet.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wanted to do something in my life that would be for the greater good and I\u2019ve always had the gift of touch,\u201d Amber said. \u201cWith the work I do, I feel like if I can help one person at a time, it will trickle down to others.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Amber was born and raised in the Wood River Valley and originally went to college in Santa Cruz. But the traditional courses of study weren\u2019t connecting for her. She was feeling a bit lost in life. Then Amber\u2019s mother gave her the gift of a massage with a local masseuse. That first experience really connected with her and Amber decided to pursue the field. As soon as she began studying bodywork, she knew she\u2019d found her field.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI immediately thought, \u2018This is it!\u2019 It was such a calling for me,\u201d Amber said.<\/span><\/p>\n After receiving a degree in massage therapy from the highly acclaimed IPSB College in San Diego, and then becoming a licensed esthetician, Amber began working professionally. After 14 years at Zenergy Health Club and Spa in Ketchum, she went into business for herself last year. <\/span><\/p>\n Amber Morgan Skin & Body has an office on Leadville Avenue in Ketchum, above Ozzie\u2019s Shoes. The small, private setting offers a more intimate experience than you\u2019ll find in a typical spa\u2014something many of her clients appreciate during these challenging times.<\/span><\/p>\n As Amber explained, because of the chaos of COVID, the need for human contact and being cared for has never been greater. <\/span><\/p>\n \u201cDoing this kind of work helps bring people a sense of peace and harmony with their bodies, which is so needed right now,\u201d said Amber, who also instructs Zumba and dance classes at Gravity Fitness in Hailey and serves as a ski instructor on Baldy.<\/span><\/p>\n While Amber enjoys helping others, she finds doing so helps her, too.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cMaking people feel good creates a very loving and calm space for me in my life. It\u2019s very rewarding work,\u201d said Amber, who has been married for nearly 20 years and is the proud mother of two sons. <\/span><\/p>\n Amber offers a variety of services, from facials and waxings to tinting, dermaplaning, microneedling, peels, LED light therapy and massages. Her most popular service is combining an hour-long facial with a half-hour massage. Sessions can be booked online. <\/span><\/p>\n The slogan for Amber\u2019s business is, \u201cYou are in good hands. Treat yourself.\u201d As her clients can attest, it\u2019s the perfect slogan for her and, if you know or have seen Amber professionally, you\u2019ll easily understand why.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m passionate about making people feel beautiful and loved and cared for,\u201d Amber said. \u201cI help create that space to help people feel better, more balanced, less stressed and look better, so they can be kinder and more patient with others and themselves.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n For more information or to book a session, go to Amber-MorganSB.com or call (208) 720-6093.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Anyone who knows Amber Morgan will tell you she has chosen the right profession.
