Acupuncture
Our Five Element Acupuncture treatments address physical, emotional, and spiritual imbalances through personalized sessions. Practitioners use ultra-fine needles to stimulate energy flow, targeting conditions like chronic pain, stress, and women's health issues. The Taoist-based approach focuses on treating root causes rather than symptoms, promoting long-term wellness through 60-120 minute sessions.
Massage Therapy
We offer Swedish, deep tissue, and myofascial release techniques tailored to individual needs. Sessions range from 60-90 minutes with pricing starting at $100 for members. Our licensed therapists address muscle tension, improve circulation, and support recovery from chronic pain conditions using both traditional and CBD-enhanced modalities.
Yoga Classes
Sunlit studio classes accommodate all skill levels with options including Vinyasa, Iyengar, and Swaroopa styles. Packages start at $29 per session with discounted multi-class passes available. Private instruction offers personalized alignment guidance and customized practice development for individual or small group sessions.

Reiki masters and energy healers provide sessions that balance subtle energy systems through hands-on and distant healing techniques. Practitioners combine chakra work with intuitive guidance to address emotional blockages and support spiritual growth in 60-75 minute appointments.

Have taken several yoga classes here and the teachers are kind and competent. Especially loved the cold lavender oil healing touch during shavasana. The owners were welcoming and helped me figure out the steps to redeeming my Groupon. It would be great if they added more classes. Either way, Ill be back!

I LOVE Blue Lotus! I have been getting acupuncture from Kirsten for a few years now . It's a different kind than I've had before.

Beautiful yoga studio and wellness center with plenty of natural light and space. The owners are thoughtful and are clearly very devoted to the business and community. They have built a strong staff of yoga teachers who are all very committed to their students and have a lot of knowledge and kindness to share. They also offer massage, acupuncture, and tai chi! The two weeks unlimited for $25 is a great way to explore different classes and teachers. I highly recommend checking this studio out!

From the beginning it was clear that the owners are more focused on acupuncture and do not view yoga as their primary business. The experienced instructor ended up leaving in frustration. It is clear the owners prefer to hire inexperienced yoga instructors who are willing to deal with the ridiculously difficult to navigate class ordering system and usuriously short time limits on the multi
