Schedule an initial intake and treatment and get set up for wellness.

🤧 You don’t have to suffer through a cold like everyone else! 👇🏻

💬 "I’d been seeing Leslie for several months when I came in for a pre-vacation tuneup. It was a few days after thanksgiving and I was feeling the slightest bit of a cold coming on.

I had a sore throat and sinus pressure. Leslie asked if she could do Gua Sha on me to stimulate my immune system. Within minutes my sinuses started draining (dripping on her floor to be exact) and over the next 24 hours I felt like I blew the entire cold out of me. I was completely better. Members of my family were bedridden for weeks with the same cold and I was off enjoying Hawaii. I’ve had two other similar experiences with Gua Sha since then and it is now my go to treatment at the first sign my immune system needs support. “ - HB.

🤧 If you feel like you may be coming down with a cold or want to give your immune system a boost before travel or a busy season, I encourage you to try gua sha. You will be amazed at how quickly it can relieve congestion, sore throats, and body aches to get you back on your feet.

If you’re in the Essex Jct area, please reach out to me to schedule a gua sha session. I would be happy to help support your health and wellbeing this cold and flu season!

It’s all about the gut!

Did you know walking up hills does more than just get your heart pumping? 🏔️ It triggers myokines—those incredible hormones that not only boost your gut biodiversity but also fuel brain growth! 🧠🚶‍♂️

So next time you see a hill, don’t avoid it—embrace it. Your body AND mind will thank you!
