Take it Easy
Spas and Wellness on The Northshore.
BY LIZ BRAGDON
As we enter the busiest, most wonderful time of the year, we feel a natural need to take it easy, tap into a slower, gentler pace and nurture ourselves — body, mind and spirit. Sometimes all you need is an hour or two to feel replenished and restored — a yoga class, a soothing sound bath or a relaxing spa treatment.
The Northshore is home to many locally-owned and unique healing and wellness centers, studios and spas where you can enjoy rejuvenating classes, services and experiences. If you’re seeking an immersive healing retreat in the peace of nature, check out the offerings at Abita Springs' Moonshadow Farms, which is also a bird sanctuary, or Folsom’s Healing with Horses, with its own on-site B&B. Book a seasonal yoga retreat, class or Ayurvedic service at Sacred Mind-Body Wellness.
In downtown Covington, The Healing House offers various holistic health, spirituality and aesthetic services. You can find hot yoga, reiki and compression therapy at Love More, and just around the corner, join a restorative aerial yoga by candlelight class and joyful morning yoga at Our Place Studio. Stone Creek Club and Spa is the place to go in Covington for traditional and luxe spa services. Mandeville boasts five of The Northshore’s favorite spas, including Earthsavers, O Spa, The Oasis, Royal Retreat Day Spa and The Woodhouse Day Spa. It’s also home to two beautiful and popular yoga studios, Bayou Yoga and Just Breathe. Also based in Mandeville, Peace by Practice hosts sound baths at public parks throughout St. Tammany.
In historic Madisonville, drop in for aerial yoga and holy yoga at Reform Yoga & Pilates. In Slidell, Blue Arrow Yoga offers yoga and aerial yoga classes, and there’s another Woodhouse Day Spa to pamper your tensions away.
