Zhawenim Wellness (pronounced ‘SHOW-WEN-NIM) is a registered massage therapy and holistic wellness studio. It is the Anishinaabemowin word for Compassion. Indigenous principals of health and medicine are what inspires each treatment to bring wholeness and balance to the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of us.
Zhawenim wellness s NOT a spa. It is health. Inside and out. It is detoxification, nourishment, education and self-care in every sense of the word. It was birthed from a deep sense of commitment to helping humanity rise out of their pain and trauma to become the best version of themselves we can be. It is a commitment to therapies that enable self responsibility.
Your body is sacred. Your skin is your biggest organ of protection and elimination. Your mind and emotions are directly linked to your health and they are paramount to how your body responds to healing. Everything you have experienced to this point in life is valid. Your journey is valid. You are valid. You are sacred and so should every hand or ingredient that touches the vessel that contains your spirit.
Trauma informed, Inclusive and family friendly offering a safe space for deep healing and relaxation.
