Reference it for

Designing for reassurance in an anxious vertical: a spa-green palette, gentle rounded display, and feeling-led copy that defuses fear before listing services.
The circular arc-timeline (carried-timeline): numbered nodes around an arc that rotates on scroll, each step surfacing a calming promise - a beautiful way to show a scary process being owned.
Inverted light/dark section breathing: deep forest sections alternating with a pale mint Services canvas, so the page inhales and exhales.
A slow, elegant motion system: cubic-bezier(0.33,0,0.11,1) workhorse, foil/scale reveals, Lenis smooth scroll - calm, never jumpy.
Quiet social proof ("Our patients' smiles speak for themselves") and a reassuring FAQ framed as "Before you start, you might want to know more."

Do not copy

The exact forest #031c14 / mint #ddefde palette and the Josefin + PP Neue Montreal pairing (re-skin to the client's calm palette and faces).
The literal arc-timeline content and the Lava mountain mark. Reproduce the arc PATTERN and re-skin the identity.

Signature moves

circular arc-timeline of the process

the 'your smile starts here' section lays the treatment journey as numbered nodes (1-6) around a large arc that rotates on scroll, surfacing a reassuring promise at the centre ('Peace and safety during every appointment') - the carried-timeline device made soothing rather than clinical, so a scary process feels owned and gentle.

spa-not-clinic calming palette + inverted breathing

a deep forest-green canvas (#031c14) with soft mint text (#ddefde), warm-gold emphasis and a rounded friendly display turns an anxious vertical into a wellness retreat, with one pale-mint Services section breaking the dark run so the page inhales and exhales.

slow settling motion system

Lenis-smoothed scroll plus a slow workhorse ease cubic-bezier(0.33,0,0.11,1) at 0.5s and long 2-3s foil image reveals on a gentle bounce make every motion soothe rather than surprise - the opposite of a jumpy clinic site.
