Hawthorn is one of the earliest blooming trees in the springtime signifying the birth of new possibilities after a long winter. Symbolically, Hawthorn signifies a time of renewed energy and healing as we begin a new adventure of the heart. As we embrace our hearts desire, we will with Hawthorn, we have the strength to follow those dreams.

Exposure to toxins is a fact of modern life. Substances like heavy metals, pesticides, chemicals from household materials and cleaning products are ingested, inhaled or absorbed into our bodies throughout our lifetimes. Some of these substances are carcinogens, meaning they are known to cause cancer in high enough concentrations; others disrupt hormones and the optimal functioning of the body.

I have been here several times and it is nice. They have a few dried herbs that you can purchase and the prices are good on the dried herbs. When I am in the building I feel like there are some negative energy vibes happening. The people barely talk to you and they have never asked me if I need any help or wanted to know about any of their products or services. It's a little stuffy for me.

Great place to go for acupuncture, to see a naturopathic doctor, massage and special clinics. I have been a client of Chelsea and Josh Philips for years and can not recommend them enough.
