About Dariel

Pure Essence Medical Spa is owned and managed by Virginia Commonwealth University Health Systems registered nurse Dariel Harris. Having been a health care professional for over 10 years, Dariel gained unmatched training and experience towards growing a successful career in the medical field. One achievement was her time spent as a critical care travel nurse, working in some of the country's top hospitals. She was then later introduced to the world of holistic wellness services. A native of Richmond, VA (#RVA), most of her medical spa and wellness service training was studied in Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Washington, DC.  

“I love being a critical care nurse, but I hated to see people get to the point where there was a fight to sustain life. I am excited about getting into the community and offering luxurious and affordable holistic services.” 

Pure Essence Medical Spa is a space where Dariel can express the gift of wellness outside of the hospital.
