Can’t say enough about how great this experience was. Skilled lovely massage after a very gender neutral and trauma informed intake. Just great.
Bonus points for a really accessible
Space and thoughtful questions about disability!!!
I mean: just look at this beautiful ramp!!!

I was so thrilled to come across Auroraflow and Christine! I have not had a facial in years due to acne prone skin that appeared after pregnancies and never really went away. When I saw that they offered facials for people with similar skin issue I was excited but nervous. These nerves were calmed immediately upon arrival and talking with Christine. She seemed to totally understand my concerns and was confident that I too could have a relaxing and calming facial experience.
She was 100% accurate, and it was an amazing experience! The products she used were so soothing, calming, and rejuvenating. She also taught me more about my skin that I had no clue about.
It has been a week and my skin still feels amazing and I’ve even just starting to make some small changes to my skincare routine that are already paying off. Really looking forward to going back next month.
Also kudos to the welcoming staff and beautiful rooms. The murals are lovely.

I cannot recommend Auroraflow enough! I have gotten two facials in the past month, and my skin is glowing. Christine has a warm and welcoming presence and is very knowledgeable — there are no dumb questions. I had a bad reaction to a previous skincare line (not from here) and Christine was able to get my skin back on track in no time. I have very fussy skin but the Hale and Hush line has been the perfect balance. I plan to book a massage next, but if they're anything like the facials, I know they'll be great.

I have been to 2 separate sessions since December 2022 for the Thai Massage with John. Both times have been amazing. The best part is each massage was completely different from the last with a focus on correcting and improving the pain I was having. John was great as he listened to my needs up front, and then adapted as the massage was ongoing to address points of stress and tightness. John spent to time to show me useful stretching and yoga positions to use at home so that continue to live more pain free.
I highly recommend this service, and my interactions with the rest of the staff makes me believe any service offered will be just as amazing. Auroraflow was obviously started as a business of passion, built on a message of comfort and welcome to any and all.

Auroraflow is a wonderful, calm, welcoming addition to Durham. The space is beautiful with fun murals in every room. My therapist, Patience, was incredible - very attentive to my energy and what style of massage I wanted and even managed to work out all of my knots! They even sent me away with helpful stretches for my tense spots. I left so relaxed and will definitely be back - thank you to Patience and Auroraflow !

Where to begin!! I had the most incredible experience at Auroraflow getting my facial with Christine. The entire atmosphere is so warm, cozy, welcoming & healing. I will never go back to the sterile all white “spa” like places. It makes such a difference all the detail they take into consideration. They are incredibly inclusive and accessible & I love how they support local artists! I can’t wait to come back for my next facial and will definitely have to try a massage sometime soon. The rooms are so warm and inviting. I live in Raleigh & I will gladly make the drive to Durham to come to Auroraflow :) I am so grateful that they have opened and that they exist. I can’t wait to tell all my friends !! 💜💜💜💜

I had hands-down (pun intended) the best massage I’ve ever had at Auroraflow. Patience did an amazing job especially in being thorough with intake and discussion afterward. Usually people are too gentle with my shoulders but Patience was spot-on with my pressure preference. The muscle tension relief released a lot of anxiety too and I will definitely be returning monthly!

I had my first facial ever with Christine earlier this week, and I'm still glowing! She took the time to really understand my skin concerns, and had lots of sage advice to help me optimize my skincare routine. I really appreciated how she let me know what type of sensations were about to happen (cold, mist, soft bristles, etc.), so I would feel more at ease. I have very sensitive skin that's prone to eczema flare-ups, and the products she chose felt effective, yet gentle.

Such a wonderful experience here today! I had a 90 minute massage with Patience that was easily one of the best massages I’ve ever had, followed by a fantastic facial experience with Christine. The space is warm & welcoming and the prices are more than fair. Will definitely be back!

I got a massage from Patience at Auroraflow yesterday. The inside of the business looks amazing with all of the art and decor. Patience was very thorough before, during and after the massage. They also made sure I received the right pressure for the massage, took care of my left shoulder that has been bothering me. I haven’t had any pain in it since the massage. They were very attentive to any requests, question, concerns that I had. I will be booking with Patience again and I recommend anyone/everyone to give them a try, you WILL NOT be disappointed.
