About Us

1920 Rue St, Suite 1
Council Bluffs IA 51503
Serenity Massage & Energywork opened its doors on October 31, 2015, with a simple vision: to create a space where people could truly Be Well. What began as a single-room practice has grown into the largest massage spa in Council Bluffs, offering seven beautifully designed treatment rooms, including two for couples, and a dedicated space for ritual and classes.
In 2016, Serenity’s founder, Rev. Jewel Ravensong-Lawrence, served as an LMT for the USA Olympic Swim Team Trials in Omaha. Her ongoing education led to certification as a Master Clinical Aromatherapist in 2018 and Death Doula certification through INELDA in 2019.
In March 2020, Serenity transitioned from a home-based business to its first commercial space. Eighteen months later, the need for expansion became clear, and in January 2022 the spa moved into a larger suite with four rooms. Growth continued, and in May 2024 Serenity relocated once again to a spacious new location with better access, ample parking, and room to flourish.
Mission Statement
At Serenity Massage & Energywork, we are passionately dedicated to helping individuals and communities Be Well. As a woman-owned spa, we provide a sanctuary where skilled therapists listen deeply and deliver transformative bodywork in a space that honors balance, boundaries, and healing. Every appointment provides the full hands-on time you reserve, never shortened for dressing or consultation.
​
We have proudly served the Council Bluffs and Omaha metro since 2015 and continue to maintain a consistent five-star rating on Google. Clients return again and again for the integrity, compassion, and care they experience here.
​
Our services include Swedish, prenatal, deep tissue, lymphatic drainage, couples massage, and energywork, as well as indulgent spa treatments such as scrubs, facial masks, and wraps, many made with small-batch products handcrafted in-house through our Healing Arts Academy line.
In addition to our spa services, we offer continuing education for licensed professionals, as well as workshops, classes, and healing circles open to everyone. These experiences are designed to support personal growth, self-care, and a deeper connection to the healing arts.
​
Inside Serenity, you will also find Wytcherys, our spiritual boutique featuring crystals, oils, books, teas, and intention-based wellness tools curated to support deeper self-care and spiritual connection.
​
Whether you seek stress relief, pain management, or energetic realignment, every session at Serenity is personalized to help you return to yourself, body, mind, and spirit.
​
We look forward to welcoming you into our tranquil space. Until then,
Be Well.
