It’s hard to believe that November is already here. It seems like the end of the year flies by. Soon it will be Thanksgiving and the holiday season. This month we are highlighting our appreciation of veterans here at Heidi Ella Massage and Wellness.
Special of the Month
We will be offering a free 30 minute massage to veterans during the month of November. You can use this as a stand-alone or upgrade to a 60, 90 or 120 minute session. We truly appreciate all that you do for this country. You can book online or call to make an appointment.
At The Wellness Center
Veteran’s Day of Wellness

Prenatal Yoga
There is still space available in the Saturday afternoon class. This Yoga series will be devoted to learning asana (postures) and pranayama (breathing) to prepare for childbirth. We will use gentle and restorative yoga and breathing exercises to strengthen body and mind in anticipation of labor. Part Yoga, part childbirth education, this class will see you challenged in the second trimester and supported in through your third.
You will need to bring your own mat to class, but all other props will be provided. The class size is small and questions/discussion is encouraged. The class is held at 1:30pm-2:30pm on Saturdays. Check out the website for more information.
