At Sanctuary Wellness Spa, we talk a lot about detoxification, circulation, and nervous system regulation—but one topic that often gets overlooked is hair health. If you’re regularly using infrared sauna therapy (which we LOVE for deep cellular healing), you may have noticed your hair feeling a little drier, more brittle, or lacking its usual shine. […]
If you’re feeling sluggish, foggy, inflamed, or just “off” this week… you’re not alone. Between a weekend of celebrating (hello, sugar, alcohol, late nights 🍀) and the intense shift in weather—snow squalls, heavy winds, and cold snaps—it’s the perfect storm for nervous system burnout and toxic overload. In fact, this kind of extreme, fluctuating weather […]
March is National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about one of the most common — and increasingly preventable — forms of cancer affecting both men and women. Colorectal Cancer has historically been considered a disease that primarily affects older adults. However, in recent years, doctors and researchers have been sounding […]

February is National Heart Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about cardiovascular health and the very real impact heart disease continues to have on both men and women. Most people think heart disease is something that happens “later” or “to someone else.” But the truth is: your heart is responding every single day to […]
February is National Cancer Prevention Month — a powerful reminder that cancer is highly influenced by lifestyle, environmental exposure, inflammation, and nervous system health. At Sanctuary Wellness Spa, our mission has always been rooted in proactive, holistic wellness. We don’t treat or diagnose disease — but we absolutely support the body’s natural resilience, detoxification pathways, […]
The “Reptile Brain” Theory: Have you noticed it? Conversations escalate faster. Social media feels more hostile. News headlines feel designed to provoke. People seem more reactive, defensive, and emotionally charged. It can feel like the world is operating from its most primitive instincts. In neuroscience, there’s a concept often referred to as the Reptile Brain […]
Let’s be honest. Right now — in America and globally — we are living in intense times.
