Fall Ayurvedic Cleanse
Take part In a personalized
Ayurvedic Cleanse with Margaret
The best time for a fall cleanse is mid Autumn. A key period for cleansing.
A fall cleanse helps the body get rid of the heat of summer.
Summer is full of travel, heat and variable schedules!
It is all SO much fun....but finally its over
and we're ready to settle in again.
A Fall Cleanse prepares your body for the slower pace of winter and strengthens your immune system. Just like trees shed their leaves, we also need to shed our bodies and mind of the summer craze.
I would be more than honored to guide you through an individualized fall cleanse and support you through our ten days together. The cleanse includes a brief virtual intake on zoom of half an hour, followed by an hour preparing you for the cleanse.
The cleanse will last 10-14 days, depending on Doshic Imbalance.
I will connect with you daily during this time.
Products cost additional but are also available for purchase for the cleanse.
The dates are flexible but need to be between October 1-November 15
Please reach out to book or book online

Cost per person is $150

Ayurvedic Consulting with Ella
Fall is the perfect time of year for an
Ayurvedic Consult
Sometimes our bodies just need a re-set! In the fall our bodies are shedding the layers of summer and nesting in for the winter ahead. It’s a great time for a guided cleanse or a consult to get you back on track and balance the imbalances in your body and mind.
Ella is trained as an Ayurvedic Health Counselor. During an intake, she will gather lots of information about your health and wellness concerns, with the overall goal of addressing them holistically. The initial intake will be two hours, followed by a one hour follow up, which will include recommendations on diet, lifestyle and daily practices.
Ella brings to the table a depth of knowledge, a deeply caring heart and a comforting and effective communication style. I highly recommend this lovely human! Her rate for these consults is $183. Ella also offers Reiki sessions and Ayurvedic Facial Massages and….guess what? She is doing Level One Thai Training in November! Woo!!!!
Deep Tissue Massage with Sophia
Looking for some deep tissue work to get after your injuries, aches and pains? This girl has powerful fingers and can really work deeply! I know from experience! She also brings a great deal of calm to any session and I promise you will not be disappointed. She also offers somatic and lymphatic work in her sessions.
Sophia has lived in Duluth most of her life and loves folk dancing and strengthening her relationship with our plant friends through gardening and foraging. Most recently, she went wild ricing for four days! How cool is that!
So Many Options with Emily
Emily is my shining light! We are working on our ten year anniversary together in bodywork and I couldn't’ be more honored!
Emily has an amazing energy and continues her education in bodywork on an ongoing basis. This is something that is very important and I couldn’t be more proud of her presence in our studio. She continually studies methods and injuries if you have them and brings them to the table or mat in her sessions.
The options with Emily are endless, including table sessions, traditional Ashiatsu, Thai bodywork, myofascial release and warm bamboo. Her energy is always upbeat and she will greet you with great care and laughter. Thank you Emily for being a shining light. Oh….and guess what! She bought a house! Yay!
Deep Intuition and Care
with Margaret
Well now, it’s kind of hard to talk about yourself. Hmmm.
Well I have owned this studio for almost twenty years. I have worked hard to build a brand that is specialized and small, yet extremely
Qualified. Calm. Colorful.
I am so proud of myself and all the people that work at and come in to our studio. I am happy to bring any human into our space and find the work that works for them. I am honored to guide them towards wellness and assist in their journey in this current world, so full of many stressors and anger. We all need caring and calming in our bodies and minds, which will help to ground us.
I offer many therapies also including Thai Bodywork as my specialty, but also therapeutic table massage, Tok sen, Ayurvedic Therapies, Ayurvedic Consulting and Chi Nei Tsang. Sometimes we mesh these things together! In addition I hold trainings in Thai Bodywork.
My most recent events are that I am coming off of a year of injuries, created by the stress and anxiety of caretaking for my mother. Lake Superior has helped to ground me with her lapping waters and having my feet in the sand. I also have a senior in highschool and that is full of its own set of emotions!
Much Love to You All!
Thank you for being part of our community; we are lucky to have each and every one of you and can’t wait to see you soon at the studio!
EXPAND YOURSELF!!!
Margaret, Emily, Sophia and Ella
