The Life Aquatic

Still Waters Holistic Health Therapies

Hitting Whole Foods is one way to get on the wellness track. But a massage from one of the clerks will cancel out any advantage to eating sprouts.

If you’re into one-stop shopping, the recently opened Still Waters Holistic Health Therapies has every achy, throbbing, chronic pain in the ass covered.

Co-owner Dan Johnson  specializes in therapeutic and deep tissue massage, craniosacral therapy (easing nerve passages in the spine and skull), and myofascial release (restoring flexibility to muscular connective tissue). His team also offers acupuncture, Thai yoga, and prenatal massage (that miraculously takes place facedown).

The practice is housed in a comfortable, art museum-area row house, which smells really good.

Even better than the organic soap aisle.
