Hi Friend!

A red-haired woman with blue eyes resting her chin on her hand, smiling at the camera. She has nail polish, earrings, and is sitting against a white wall.

I’m Julie, and I created Soft Touch ASMR Spa for gals & non-binary pals from a need for comforting, gentle touch.

In 2007 I began struggling with anxiety for the first time in my life - I desperately needed to relax, but massages were always painful to me. I needed something softer, gentler & more comforting - like a back scratch from mom or my childhood friend playing with my hair. Having no luck, I searched for videos on YouTube as a means of vicarious experience. Again, not much out there, but it led me to ASMR, which I fell in love with & asleep to every night.

So finally, after years of daydreaming about filling that void, I started my own YouTube channel called 'Friends with ASMR' at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020. I gained a following very quickly & because I had so many viewers asking where to experience this IRL, Soft Touch ASMR Spa was born in 2022!

What even is ASMR?

Short for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, ASMR is a feeling of well-being combined with a tingling sensation in the scalp and down the back of the neck, as experienced by some people in response to a specific gentle stimulus, often a particular sound or gentle movements, such as hair brushing, nail scratching, and face brushing.

  • "I’ve never done anything like this before and was super nervous but also excited because I’ve loved ASMR videos for years now. Julie was so kind, comforting, and detail oriented. I walked out of the session so relaxed. She’s truly a professional and I feel so grateful for the type of experience she’s created. It was better than I could have ever hoped for! I can’t wait to go back!"

  • "Take a trip to “chills city” and book the best 50 minutes of your life with Julie!... Enjoy a light scratching sensation (including feathers, brushes, nail extenders, etc.) all over the back, arms, head, chest, and even brushing on the face. You will truly feel so thoroughly relaxed you’re bound to have intense “I just slept really hard face” when you roll over and you might even drool a bit. Through it all, Julie makes you feel safe, calm and so at ease you MIGHT fall asleep! Don’t sleep on booking an appointment however, Julie books up fast and you don’t want to miss this."
