In our breathwork and meditation classes, you can expect guided exercises focusing on controlled breathing techniques and meditation practices to promote relaxation, mental clarity, and emotional balance. Classes typically begin with brief instruction followed by a session of guided practice, which may include sitting quietly, lying down, or gentle movement.
Classes usually last between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the focus and level of the session. For beginners, attending once a week is recommended to build a consistent practice, but more frequent sessions can provide deeper benefits and quicker proficiency.
No special equipment is required for these classes. Comfortable clothing is recommended to facilitate easy movement and relaxation. We will provide various mats and cushions, but you may bring your own if you prefer.
Acupuncture is a type of traditional Chinese medicine that’s been around for about 2,500 years. It’s used to support wellness and improve overall mental and physical well-being. The acupuncturist places needles into specific points on the skin to help activate an energy in the body, called qi. According to traditional Chinese medicine, qi is the lifeforce energy in the body — it helps regulate and move things in the body to keep us well. Stress, environmental factors, lifestyle behaviors, and genetics are some of the things that can block qi in the body. The needles help to unblock or move qi to other areas in the body to help support wellness.
Acupuncture needles are solid, stainless steel needles that are usually not much larger than a strand of hair. Acupuncture needles are placed at a very shallow depth and go between tissues, making them less painful than a typical injection.
You might be more sensitive in certain areas, but acupuncture shouldn’t hurt. If you feel pain, tell your acupuncturist. They’ll adjust the needles or choose other points. Their goal is not to make you feel pain. They do a lot of work to position you properly and make sure you feel comfortable.
Indeed you can do acupuncture or massage while pregnant. It is safe and our practitioners are very well versed in how to treat pregnant women. Please let us know when you book a treatment if you are pregnant and how far along you are.
