The “New Year Reboot: Mind, Body and Spa Day” offers a bevy of services meant to bring back piece of mind, healing and relaxation after a long and hectic holiday season. Events kick off with a yoga class from 9 - 10 a.m. upstairs. Meanwhile, local practitioners will showcase their alternative well-being services all day, featuring spiritual energy cleansing, chiropractic, reflexology, sound therapy, reiki, craniosacral therapy, detox foot soaks and more. And for a little retail therapy, there will be a “strolling fashion show” by Alpine Chic at 1 p.m. as well as a boutique, featuring silk scarves, handcrafted jewelry, teas, essential oils and other unique offerings. Pre-registration is available for select practitioners at the New Year’s Reboot Facebook page, facebook.com/events/376974549145886, or available the morning of the event. Sessions will be on a first-come, first-served basis, and attendees are encouraged to sign up early for best availability. The DMI is located within walking distance of the base, near Elk Point Condos. |
