Our Practitioners

Manipura - The Solar Plexus Chakra

The practitioners at Chakra Wellness are the heartbeat of the center. It is through their offerings, which are holistic in nature, that our clients’ wellness journey begins. Their treatments (massage, acupuncture, ayurveda, acupressure, tarot card readings) are an important complement to the western medicine many are already familiar with. Invest in your wellness and, in turn, be better prepared to face the world from a more centered, happy, holistic and balanced perspective.
