Many people turn to yoga and massage as a way to center themselves and relax. Namaste Massage and Yoga Studio offers clients several ways to de-stress. Body treatments are popular and include therapeutic massage, hot stone massage, and cranial sacral therapy. Consider a stimulating body scrub, then wrap up in a warm blanket with the Cocoon Body Wrap. During your time wrapped up, you’ll receive a warm oil hair and scalp treatment. After your wrap, you’ll get massaged with a warm body balm. Also, this place is for everyone. Even pregnant people can enjoy the gentle Mommy to be Massage.

To help with your focus and mental health, Namaste Massage and Yoga Studio offers an energy healing session called Crystalline Consciousness Technique. You can also spend time in the steam room with invigorating eucalyptus oil. Perhaps you’d prefer to have a foot treatment with refreshing mint or to add some color to your skin with the spray tan.
