This place is amazing, for so many reasons! I have been going here for over two years after finding it in my neighborhood. Alex teaches amazing classes that I love, including Body Remix & floral arrangements. His unique handmade jewelry sold here is perfect for gifting (yourself or others), along with other bath/body/wellness products from sellers I’d never learn about otherwise. Leo is an incredible massage therapist, he always finds trigger points I didn’t know I had. If you love dancing, you *must* take a class with Dill – we are lucky to have her in the South Loop! Towayn is a knowledgeable acupuncturist who asks the best questions to determine treatment. I recently had my least painful wax session with the skilled & soothing Flor, who also provides esthetic services. Highly recommend, there is something for everyone in this inclusive space!

Flor was absolutely amazing! It was my first time getting waxed with the particular wax she uses. She was so attentive and answered all of my questions with grace. She made sure the experience wasn’t too painful with her pre-wax care ritual and also the after care.

This place has everything! Yoga, Massage Therapy, Dance classes, Jewelry and Art Classes, Fitness Classes, and fresh flowers + Plants! I’ve gotten multiple massages by Leo and he is EPIC. He fixed up my lower back and hamstrings making me feel like I was in a whole new body by the end of the session. I’ve also done their BYOB paint your pet night on friday’s and I had SO much fun and now have a beautiful art piece that I got to make myself hanging in my apartment. Their flowers are also THE BEST FLOWERS IN THE SOUTH LOOP. I truly cannot get enough of this place.

I love this place! Leo is a sadist but honestly has helped my chronic pain SO much! I love the little shop in front with all it’s artsy wonderful things. It always smells great. I always leave so relaxed and relieved. And maybe its just me but Leo really puts the THERAPY in massage therapy by listening to me jibber jabber. Hehe. I like that he’s up for good conversation or quiet calm depending on what I need. I’m a huge fan of L&A Healing Studio! One day I look forward to checking out some of their fitness, dance and art classes. Oh also I LOVE their tea, it’s part of my ritual now.

I had the best experience in this boutique today. I was walking by and noticed the lotus flower and one of the window shops as well as the plants. I walked in and really love the energy and the layout of the shop. There were so many different things to purchase into look at it really was exciting to be in there. The cashier, I’m so sorry I can’t remember his name, was very nice and even gave me a tour around the building. I purchased two pieces and plan to go back to get some more. I really enjoyed being in the shop.
