Bath Recipe: Warming & Detoxifying Mustard Bath
Does the cold weather leave you feeling stiff and fatigued, or feeling like you just can’t warm up? Are these constant shifts from 50 degrees to 30 making you feel run down and under the weather? This mustard bath recipe is a great way to counteract all that! The idea of mustard in a bath […]
Hydrotherapy (or, Why Taking a Bath Isn’t Just an Indulgence)
Hydrotherapy has become a real buzzword these days, but the idea isn’t new.

Since we see massage as a wellness practice and form of self-care, we think that’s a bummer, and we’ve always tried ways to make it […]
