Kailee doesn't take insurance, but neither will you be one of dozens of clients being treated at the same time. Knowing I'll see outstanding from having worked with her, paying out of pocket is worth every penny. I'm in my 7th decade so when it comes to healing my body I don't have the time nor the desire to mess around with anything less than highly effective solutions. I lost patience decades ago with the ineffective results from assembly-line physical therapy. We pay now, or we pay later. But pay we will.

I have been doing yoga for close to thirty years. probably 40 different instructors or more. Every…read moreexperience left me feeling uplifted and glad I had gone with the exception of the hot yogalaties class at this location. I had been to the location a couple of years before and was happy with it. The problem started at the beginning when the instructor gave a passionate plea to speak up about all the awful stuff going on in the country. I ignored it. To be fair I was happy with the class tempo, music, and degree of difficulty. The class ended with a repeat of political activism and shaming if you might not hold those same opinions. I quietly left class but the instructor was at the desk as I put on my coat. I quietly told her I know she noticed I left early, and that I was used to yogis that left us uplifted with quotes from poets, philosophers , or other yogis. That I felt she was giving a political lecture. She vehemently said " Yoga is political". But i feel it is spiritual not political, or at least should be. I was a drop in so maybe the members like this but if you plan on going to this location just be for warned. I was so put off and mad instead of the feeling of love and peace yoga has brought me over the years.

I don't usually leave reviews (I know I should more for the businesses I love) but felt the need to…read moreafter seeing Stephanie S.'s review. Not only is her review very misleading (because I was there at said class) but she wasn't honest about her behavior (which was embarrassing for her). Every class begins and ends with motivational quotes. Take what resonates and leave what doesn't. Just because something isn't relevant to her life (how lucky) doesn't mean it isn't for someone else. She did not leave quietly, I got to hear her huff & puff and leave class early. I thought that was the end of it but she waited out in the lobby to confront the instructor & raised her voice enough about her Asian American family that came here "the right way" (crazy to assume someone else didn't) that she had to be asked to leave. Now I attend Bruna's class almost every week & always leave feeling empowered & strong. She is an amazing instructor & knows her stuff & I see it every class with how many members love her & look forward to her class. Anyways we love you Bruna & I will always recommend her & all the instructors at Midlo Hot Yoga & Wellness.

A refuge in Richmond for compassion and happiness, the different groups have different emphases but all welcome people of all backgrounds for meditation sessions, talks, or prayers. Whether it is through chanting or walking or silent meditation, the goals include focusing the mind to free ourselves from mundane associations and removing greed, ignorance, and hatred - the root causes of self suffering. Richmond Zen Group Sundays 9:00 am Wednesdays 7:00 pm Thursdays 6:30 am Ekoji Pure Land Group Saturdays 2:00 pm Ekoji Vipassana Group Tuesdays 7:00 pm Fridays 5:45 pm Tibetan Buddhist Group Thursdays 7:30 pm Richmond Meditative Inquiry Group Sundays 7:00 pm please contact the center for dates of half and whole day meditation retreats For those who are new, please come a little early to get an introduction. Some beginners find sitting meditation may lead to some mild uncomfortableness or muscle soreness, but it is acceptable to quietly and slowly shift positions or get up and move around if the pain is causing a mental distraction. Just maintain mindfulness of the present moment, and note that all feelings are subjective and impermanent. Improvements and mental calmness come with practice - just like playing the piano, you are not an expert on the first try! True Buddhism is very deep and can be quite easily misunderstood or wrongly interpreted if one only gets a superficial view. Hence, it is refreshing to find this treasure in Richmond for mindfulness, meditation, and Buddhism study - although note that there are also other Buddhist groups active in Richmond, including Tzu Chi Buddhist Charity.

I loved my previous…read moremassage place & needed something accommodating for my chronic illnesses & with enough availability. I looooove Divine Spark!! Their prices have recently increased to $100+ for an hour session, but honestly, that's more than worth it. I have had nothing but wonderful experiences here & I'm so glad my chronic pain can be treated in my new city.

I booked a session here being TOTALLY UNAWARE they are the best rated massage in Richmond, and you…read moreknow what? I left thinking, "That's got to be the best massage I have ever had." I have severe, chronic pain. I got a massage somewhere else--that I won't name here--and my pain was so bad, I let the masseuse use a lot of pressure. I realized this was a mistake the very next day and they'd done some damage, but I could not use my arm--which is a bad situation to be in. A few days later, I got an appointment here with Tiffany. Tiffany was AWESOME. Along with a general massage and cupping, she used a method called scraping--this, my friends, did WONDERS for my arm. The beds are heated. The face-thingies are SOFT (I don't know why I can't find this everywhere). The only downsides? 1. There's no membership option!!! WHY. WHY WON'T YOU LET ME GIVE YOU MY MONEY MONTHLY?! 2. There's no rooms for couple's massages, and booking two separate massages at the same time for two different people using their online system is. . .not something it wants to let you do. My trick is to book one massage with another directly after it--both times I've done this, I've been called and asked if that was intentional. Once I explained, they had no problem arranging for me and my partner to both get massaged. 3. When you arrive, there's no receptionist, no front desk--there's chairs and magazines, so you KNOW it's the waiting area, but it can feel awkward waiting and being unsure if anyone knows you've arrived for an appointment. Fear not; It seems these folks are punctual and aware of when a client should be there, so they'll pop out of the room they massage in and get you--don't be weird like me and wander around, making the fact you have social anxiety super obvious, awkward, and everyone else's problem in addition to your own; Sit down and open a magazine and read about Reiki. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE. Richmond is flooded with just below average massage parlors/masseuses, which is why you're going to have a hard time ever getting the same, one, good masseuse at a location repeatedly; There's a LOT of turn over because, well. . .Not a lot of people are great at massage. If they are, odds are they'll begin working for a nicer place *cough*Divine Spark*cough* or relocate out of the area entirely. Since Divine Spark is the best, they're priced highly, so I see this place as a place to go when I'm in extreme pain or as a very special treat. Beware--this is a small location and company, so book well in advance if a specific date is important to you. I'm already ready for another appointment, but honestly, seriously, beware; Your next massage elsewhere will leave you disappointed after a trip to Divine Spark.
