Patient Care Coordinator
A proud Western Carolina University alumna, Danielle has been happily married for nearly eight years and is the proud mom of two beautiful daughters who keep her life joyful and full. She loves summertime, Christmas, and creating meaningful moments with her family.

Heather Hamrick
Licensed Esthetician
A proud Grover native and Cleveland Early College alumna, Heather believes deeply in God’s timing and approaches both life and her work with intention and gratitude. She is passionate about creating results-driven treatments while also building meaningful connections with each client she serves.
Outside of the treatment room, Heather is an animal lover through and through — a self-proclaimed cow enthusiast and proud dog mom. She’s your classic “redneck boujee” blend: outdoorsy with tomboy roots, but equally girly at heart. You’ll likely find her with an iced matcha in hand, enjoying chips and salsa, watching her comfort show Reba, or sneaking in a nap in the AC when she can.
Heather’s mission is simple: to help every client leave feeling confident, refreshed, and cared for — because true beauty starts with how you feel.
Krista Biggerstaff
Licensed Massage Therapist & Bodywork Therapist
She offers a wide range of modalities, including Thai massage, sports massage, prenatal massage, hot stone therapy, relaxation massage, and other customized bodywork treatments. Whether a client is seeking relief from chronic tension, recovery support, or simply a moment to reset, Krista tailors each session to meet their individual needs.
Krista is known for her ability to create a safe, calming environment where clients feel completely at ease. Her grounded presence and intuitive touch allow each person to fully relax and reconnect with their body during treatment.
Outside of the treatment room, Krista enjoys spending quality time with her family and embracing the outdoors. Gardening, hunting, fishing, hiking, and other outdoor pursuits keep her connected to nature and balanced in her everyday life.
Krista’s goal is simple: to help every client leave feeling restored, refreshed, and deeply cared for.
Kim Sterious
Assistant Patient Care Coordinator
Originally from the mountains of North Georgia, Kim moved to the Shelby area in the mid-1990s to attend Gardner-Webb University. After graduating, she and her husband, Mark, chose to make North Carolina their permanent home. Together they are proud parents to two sons, Samuel (17) and Seth (12), who keep life full and active.
Kim is also a devoted animal lover, and her fur babies — Rylee (Cocker Spaniel), Cooper (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel), and Lily (Ragdoll kitty) — hold a very special place in her heart. Outside of work, she enjoys traveling and spending quality time with family and friends.
Kim’s friendly spirit and dedication to patient care reflect the heart of Pink Paradise — making every person who walks through the door feel valued, cared for, and right at home.
