Swedish, Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular Therapy/Trigger Point Therapy, Pregnancy Massage, Hot Stones Hello and welcome to Via Wellness, your supportive path to enhanced health and wellness! My journey began in 2011 when I graduated from The American Institute of Alternative Medicine and earned my massage therapy license from the Ohio State Medical Board. Since then, my passion for holistic health has driven me to further my education, leading to my Yoga Teacher Training in Children's Yoga and 200 hour Hatha Yoga. As well as the completion of my Integrative Health Professions Associate of Applied Science degree in 2023. I gained knowledge about various modalities and different stress management rechniques to help support and improve one's overall health; mind, body, and spirit. Over the years, I've gain valuable experience in various settings, allowing me to deepen my knowledge, refine my techniques, and broaden my vision for holistic self-care in massage and beyond. At Via Wellness, each session is customized to meet your individual needs, taking into account your lifestyle, current physical condition, and session goals. Services include Swedish(relaxtion), deep tissue, trigger point therapy, and pregnancy massage, with each session complemented by the use of essential oils, hot towels, and hot stones, and cupping (if supportive and safe to the specific client). I also provide mobile table and chair massage services in Van Wert and surrounding areas. This option is ideal for events and employee appreciation, allowing you to support self-care and express gratitude for hard work. Please reach out for mobile rates, as they may vary depending on location. After spending about 15 years away from Van Wert, I am grateful for the opportunity to return to my hometown and offer my services and support to our community. Thank you for choosing Via Wellness as your partner on your journey to improved health and well-being. Many Blessings,
Toni Dunbar

Can anyone relate to this pic?
Massage can help:)

A 2012 study from the International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity found that, on average, people spend 64 hours a week sitting, 28 hours standing, and 11 hours lounging around regardless of whether or not they exercised 150 minutes a week.

That’s over nine hours of sitting a day.

Prolonged sitting invariably leads to slouching, and comes with a host of other problems that are typical of poor posture.

Here are 7 effects of sitting posture on your health.

As a rule of thumb, for every hour of sitting try standing for 10-15 mins.

If you’re a desk jockey at work, consider a standing desk instead. Getting on your feet works the valves in your leg veins, sending blood up to your heart.

Get moving!

A couple of post massage comments from clients today when I asked them, “How do you feel?” after our session:

“Ahhh:) I feel like I’ve lost 5 pounds!”

“I feel different than I did 90 minutes ago….I feel more alive!”

For those I haven't seen in a while, here are some helpful updates.

In June of 2024, Via Wellness opened its doors at a new location! A lot of messy and hard work, along with many long hours and late nights, has gone into fixing up the new studio. Some amazing helping hands pitched in along the way and I am beyond grateful! It's still a work in progress but I'm so happy you all get to be a part of it!

Via Wellness is now located at right between Lucky Point and Ollies in the Summit Shopping Center, behind McDonalds.

A few new features have been added to the studio as well.

New Selfie-Station, Via Wellness Style!
Strike a pose in front of the Postural Analysis Grid Chart to track your posture and alignment progress between sessions. Seeing the physical changes is great motivation to keep up the good work of self-care!

There are two new footstool options, one with an adjustable supportive handle, to make it easier to get up and down from the massage table.

Need a little extra support for your body to be comfortable during the session? There are plenty of bolsters and pillows that can also be used for extra cushion and support, especially for pregnancy massage sessions.

Last but not least, the studio finally got a washer and dryer! Yeah!! This has been a huge help in tackling the mounds of daily laundry!

It's wonderful to finally have my own space to do the work I love! I am truly blessed with such amazing clients. Thank you for your trust in allowing me to be a support on your wellness journey.

I look forward to working with you in 2025!
