❄️ Winter WonderSkin: Free Event + Inside-Out Skin Support


Thank you for being part of the Origin community and for trusting us with your care. Your commitment to caring for yourself—even in a busy season—is truly inspiring. Together, we’re creating a better way to approach wellness. 💜

Wednesday we will close at 12pm, and reopen Monday. May you have time for respite this week and we will see you soon!

Read on to hear about our Winter WonderSkin event on Dec 9, how to support the skin microbiome, and a New Year, New You save-the-date—and some sweet news from the Origin team.

As the weather turns colder and drier, skin experts Mary and Shannon are here to help you glow through winter at Winter WonderSkin, a complimentary in-person class on Tuesday, December 9, 5:00–6:30 p.m. at Origin Medicine (2602 N. Proctor Street, Suite 203, above Starbucks, Tacoma).

Led by Shannon Boddie, NCEA (Flawless Tacoma) and Mary Hurley, ARNP (Hapa Aesthetics at Origin Medicine), you’ll learn how winter affects your skin barrier, simple ways to keep your complexion luminous, and which in-clinic and at-home treatments can help. We’ll have hors d’oeuvres, fun drinks, and giveaways.

You can RSVP through our online store—you’ll see a checkout screen, but you do not need to enter credit card information to reserve your spot.

Support Your Winter Skin from the Inside

Topicals help—but your gut–skin connection matters too. Winter’s cold, dry air and extra stress can show up as dryness, redness, or breakouts. When your skin’s microbiome is supported, it tends to look and feel more resilient. For some patients, we may also consider SereneSkin™, a probiotic-powered supplement that supports the gut–skin axis and overall skin health.

Curious? Give us a call, or visit our online store if you’re an active patient.

A New Little Member of the Origin Family

Please join us in congratulating Jessica and Stetson on the birth of their son, Maverick Lee Hays! ✈️


An early surprise to mom and dad on the day of moving into their new home, baby Maverick was born 10/22 at 10 a.m. at The Birthing Inn in Tacoma. He weighed in at 7 lb 1 oz and measured 20 inches long. Everyone is doing well.

Most of you know Jess. For those that do not, Jess was Origin Medicine’s RN. We miss her dearly, but we’re thrilled for her growing family!
