PHYSICAL WELLNESS: I help people fit back into their favorite clothes! Yes, that’s what I do. Taking care of your physical wellness is important if you want to look and feel better. What I have learned over the years is that effective, intentional movement or what I would call functional movement is an integral part of longevity and wellness.

Here’s what I also know…besides movement, the body has to be properly nurtured and cared for in a particular way for you to reap its long-term benefits. However, we were never really taught about our own bodies and how to care for it and its routine maintenance thereof. Let’s face it, we don’t need an anatomy and nutrition class but what if someone took the time to teach you how to move and eat to help you develop that skill? Wouldn’t that be a great idea?! 

To that end, I have assembled my own team of elite personal trainers so that I could work with them personally and guide them on how and what to work on with you my patients. 

Together, we have created unique programs that are a combination of nutrition coaching, floor yoga, barre, HIIT, aerial yoga, resistance training, TRX and other modalities to help you accomplish your fitness and wellness goals.

6-week Weight Loss, 8-week Restorative Yoga and 12-week Wellness Transformation Programs: 

Our 6-week, 8-week and 12-week wellness programs are the most cost-effective and are a combination of fitness, nutrition coaching and psychological support but in a group format. Some people use these programs as an opportunity to kickstart their weight loss journey but we really like to consider it the jumpstart to your best well self.

The 6-week Weight Loss program is specifically designed for the highly motivated individual who wants to meet their goals in a short period of time using the HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) format.

The 8-week Restorative Yoga program is very similar to the 6-week program but with a well-crafted yoga curriculum to achieve the same results for individuals that may not do well with the HIIT format.

Our 12-week Wellness Transformation program is designed for people that may not be able to meet the rigors of either the 6 or 8-week programs and may need a bit more intensive coaching and medical monitoring. This particular program is slower paced and a hybrid of both Yoga and HIIT. We are able to join forces with your Primary Care team and track your labs and other metrics such as your cholesterol level, blood pressure and Hemoglobin A1c (if you’re a diabetic) with them.

1 on 1 Private Personal Training:

If group training is not your thing, then private training might be the better choice for you. My team will provide you a customized fitness program along with nutrition counseling to fit your needs and help you accomplish your goal. You will therefore get monthly Inbody assessments, personal nutrition coaching along with a monthly physical assessment testing to make sure you are making progress towards your goal. 

Semi-Private Personal Training:

In this small group format (1-4 people), you will enjoy all the benefits of having a private personal trainer but in a shared sort of way which makes it more cost efficient. You will still enjoy the same personalized fitness programming, nutrition and accountability. Better yet, you get to learn how to move your body with a group of people which provides motivation, support and a whole lot of fun.

*Rehabilitative Exercise Programs:

This program is designed for people who may be recovering from some sort of injury or have pains and aches that holds them back from reaching their wellness goals. We have a Physical Therapist on our team and together we will craft a program for you that will take into account your current status with the aim to improve your function gradually and get you ultimately stronger. We are also able to accept Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance coverage for this sort of program.

Youth Athletic Program/ Speed School:

I will be remiss if I did not create a program for the little ones in our lives. It never hurts to start our young ones early in wellness and to each them that what they put in their bodies and how they perform as athletes go hand in hand. Having two children of my own and realizing how impressionable they are made me realize that this was the opportune time to develop them as athletes while also teaching them how to prevent injuries while playing sports and maximize their potential with proper nutrition. Along with LSU alum and Rio Olympic Sprinter Gabriel Mvumvure and NCAA Collegiate athlete Anna Blackstone, we have created a Speed and Wellness program in 6-week blocks of training that will put your youth athletes heads and shoulders above their peers and their competition.

ALCAT Food Sensitivity testing:

Want to take your wellness to another level? Then consider doing the ALCAT Food Sensitivity test. In case you have not heard of this blood test before, it takes the guess work out of determining which foods and other substances may be sabotaging your wellness. You know how you might experience extreme bloatedness or cramping after eating certain foods? Or perhaps, you feel chronically fatigued and your doctors may have said, “Well, we can’t seem to find anything medically wrong!” Well, that is partially true! The problem might lie in certain foods that you may be ingesting that may be triggering chronic inflammation and chronic activation of the immune system. Armed with the results of this test, you can then make the appropriate food choices to minimize those unwanted ill effects from foods that you possibly consume on a daily basis.

MENTAL WELLNESS: I strongly believe that body treatments such as massages, facials and some anti-aging services contribute to an individual’s mental wellness regardless of gender, cultural background or ethnicity. It can help anyone feel better, youthful and more confident. I challenge you to participate in these self-care services to help you unwind and destress, and develop a better self image. 

FACIALS:

As previously mentioned, appearance and confidence-enhancing, beauty-related services and products are part of wellness in my opinion. As a result, I strongly recommend it to everyone to use it to boost their mood, self-image, and positivity about their recovery to optimal health and wellness. Because we’re results driven, my team and I have carefully curated different anti-aging facials that have different modalities and coupled them with amazing products to enhance your results. You’ll be surprised to see how integrating dermaplaning, microdermabrasion, chemical peels or micro needling to your facial will do wonders to revealing your youthful glow.

Our different facials are categorized as the Customized Facial, Signature Facial and the Hydraglow Facial. Our Gentlemen’s facial come in all of these three categories as well.

NEUROTOXINS & FILLERS:

People ask me all the time…So why are Neurotoxins such as Botox®/ Dysport and filler injections like Restylane part of wellness? Well, the answer is that lines and wrinkles are key markers of the aging process as the body’s stores of collagen and hyaluronic acid gets depleted. These two therefore, in combination, can help reduce the lines and replenish the volume lost from important areas like the cheeks and forehead. Cosmetic fillers don’t just make you look better, but they can also boost your collagen and hyaluronic acid levels so that your skin’s natural balance is restored. With Botox/ Dysport, laser skin care and other anti-aging skin treatments, your skin can feel the difference and help provide that emotional boost you’re looking for. Because beauty starts from within, we want you to look great and feel your best.

The products we carry in this category are Dysport, Restylane, Restylane Lyft and Restylane Silk.

MASSAGE THERAPY:

Massage therapy can play a dynamic and effective role in your health and wellness care. It has been proven to reduce stress and anxiety, relieve tension, relax muscles, reduce pain, improve circulation and immune function, and increase range of motion and flexibility. We also know that an hour of a relaxing body massage by human touch helps to release the strain of a hectic lifestyle and revitalize your weary body. If a deep tissue massage is what is needed to loosen rigid muscles loosen and ease the tension then that might be just what the doctor ordered. Let us help you stimulate your muscle tissues and revive those nerve endings to promote good blood circulation and keep health issues at bay.

The different types of massages we offer are: Swedish massage, Orthopedic/ Deep tissue massage, Golden Senior Citizen Massage, Aromatherapy massage, Raindrop Therapy Massage and Maternity Wellness Massage.

LASER SKIN CARE:

Laser skin care treatments as part of a wellness routine can help you reveal your healthy, youthful glow that is hiding beneath your sun damaged skin. We currently offer Skin Resurfacing lasers, (Pixel and IPL) to even out your texture and improve your skin tone after sun damage and acne scarring. Our Skin Tightening/ Cellulite Reduction lasers are great for tightening those stubborn, loose, sagging skin all over your body and the all popular Laser Hair Removal is ideal for the smooth, hair-free lover.

Please note! I recommend using these various laser modalities in concert at different times in your treatment regimen to maximize your results and accomplish your goals. For example, we may couple a skin resurfacing or skin rejuvenation procedure with a skin tightening treatment to give you the best results in a particular area of your skin or face. In other cases, we may recommend a microdermabrasion or facial treatment following a skin resurfacing procedure if we feel that will give you a great outcome. The skin tightening laser will help tighten the sagging skin around the neck and face for a smoother and tighter appearance whereas the microdermabrasion/ facial session will exfoliate any residual brown spots that may have become loosened with the skin resurfacing laser.

EMOTIONAL WELLNESS: As a lifelong artist, ART brings me a considerable amount of joy and mental well-being and is definitely a big part of my personal wellness. It may not do the same for you and I understand, so please, indulge me. What I wish for you is that you participate in that thing that brings you even more joy and sense of well-being. It may be music, books, meditation, poetry, writing, spending time with your pets, etc. Whatever it is, hold on to it and actively pursue it…daily.

That aside, the purpose of the rotating gallery for me is ultimately to provide a creative and exciting venue where artists can showcase and exhibit their art. Along the way, we’ve become known as the hub where all genres of art are welcomed without prejudice or judgement and we continue to learn, evolve and grow. My goal is to break down the stigma that gallery art is only for the elite because I believe that everyone, regardless of whether they are just art enthusiasts or seasoned collectors, should be able to enjoy art in a space that is beautiful and exciting.

To that end, we may show work that is socially conscious and that triggers emotion, or work that is just plain amazing but have no social context or relevance whatsoever. Whatever the case, I want you the viewer to feel connected to the art in your own way. We try to promote the work of these artists through our website, social media platforms, workshops, etc. as well and I like to say that our curated work is of high quality to allow the artists the best opportunity to sell their art. The most important thing I would like you to remember is that the sale of each piece of art goes directly to the artist, so besides the paintings and sculptures enhancing your life, the purchase also helps and inspires that artist to continue to invest in their life’s work.

We would love for you to join us at our once quarterly exhibition receptions where you will have the opportunity to visit with the artists and your favorite wellness team. 😉
