Welcome to R&R Wellness: Rest & Restore in Newton, NC
Wellness doesn't always need to mean doing more.
Sometimes it looks like finally slowing down. Taking care of the tension you've been ignoring. Caring for your skin. Sitting with a warm cup of tea. Stepping outside after an appointment and staying just a little longer.
That's the heart behind R&R Wellness: Rest & Restore.
R&R Wellness brings two independent wellness businesses together under one roof: Refuah 14 Massage & Bodywork and RBF Aesthetics. While our specialties are different, our goal is shared — to create a place where taking care of yourself feels intentional, personal, and unrushed.
Refuah 14: Where Bodywork Becomes Ritual
Refuah 14 was built around the belief that massage can be more than an appointment on your calendar.
Founded by Hannah Brown, LMBT, Refuah combines customized massage, therapeutic bodywork, spa-inspired rituals, and holistic wellness with a distinctly Christian foundation.
Scripture is woven throughout many of our services — from Heavenly Rest and Mighty Hands to experiences like Anointed Flow and Living Waters. Every detail is designed with intention. Not to create a one-size-fits-all massage, but to make room for the care your body has been asking for.
Refuah is also growing beyond the treatment room through Refuah Roots, our apothecary and wellness goods; Refuah Institute, offering workshops and wellness education; and eventually Refuah Masa, our vision for wellness travel and retreats.
RBF Aesthetics: Reclaim Your Best Face
Led by Maya Gallego, RBF Aesthetics brings skincare, facials, waxing, and beauty services into the R&R experience.
And yes — the name is supposed to make you smile.
RBF is about reclaiming the phrase resting bitch face and turning it into something completely different: Reclaim Your Best Face.
With professional skincare, customized treatments, waxing, and an expanding menu of aesthetic services, Maya's approach is about helping clients care for the skin they're actually living in — not chasing someone else's version of perfect.
More Than an Appointment
One of our biggest goals for R&R is creating a place you don't feel rushed to leave.
Enjoy a cup of tea at our indoor refreshment bar. Browse skincare, body care, apothecary goods, wellness products, and gifts in the R&R Boutique. Or spend some time outside in our shared wellness garden, where we're creating space around the sauna, firepit, outdoor bar, koi pond, movie screens, and gathering areas.
We're also working toward combined spa days and experiences — bringing massage, aesthetics, relaxation, and our shared amenities together.
Because sometimes wellness isn't one service. Sometimes you need the whole afternoon.
Two Paths, One Place
There's another part of the R&R story that makes this especially meaningful: Hannah and Maya both graduated from Western Carolina University with degrees in Integrated Health Science, but our paths after college looked very different.
Hannah spent nine years working as a CNA in a variety of medical settings before feeling called toward a more holistic approach to care and eventually becoming a Licensed Massage & Bodywork Therapist.
Maya spent roughly a decade working in veterinary medicine before following her interest in aesthetics and skincare.
Different paths. Different specialties. One shared belief that caring for people can take many forms.
Welcome to R&R
We're still growing. Some parts of our vision are already here, while others are coming to life little by little.
But the purpose behind it is simple:
Rest. Restore. Take care of yourself. Stay awhile.
Welcome to R&R Wellness. We're glad you're here.
