It's Spring!  Acupuncture, Herbs and Fire Cupping Can Help Your Spring Symptoms


Acupuncture can help the two most common Spring symptoms we see---seasonal allergies and soreness from outdoor activities, especially gardening.

Sneezing?  Watery Eyes?  Congestion?
Olivia can combine acupuncture, facial cupping, and a Chinese Herbal Formula mixed just for your specific symptoms to make you feel better.  



Stiff and Sore from Spring Gardening?
Olivia sees these symptoms all the time.  Fire cupping can offer immediate relief.  We have convenient and affordable half hour sessions available for cupping, so you can quickly get in to address issues before they become too painful or ingrained.  These half hour sessions cost only $30.   Members:  You are eligible for one FREE fire cupping session during April.

Come See What You've Been Missing

We consistently get very positive reviews for Olivia's services.  We were delighted to receive this one on Yelp.

Clients always tell us that they feel Olivia really listens to them, understands their concerns, and treats exactly what they need addressed during each session.  Because of this, her clients are very satisfied and come in regularly to see her.




Acupuncture Specials at Holistic:

We are offering discounts on initial and follow-up acupuncture visits this month.   

Some conditions require several visits before they improve, so the packages are a way to save money on getting several visits in a row.  



All acupuncture sessions at Holistic Fitness are in a private room, with a warming infrared BioMat to keep you comfortable.  

To improve your allergies, pain, or whatever ails you, book an appointment with Olivia soon!   You can book online or by calling
 314-647-3999.  


Spring Cleaning:  It's not Just for Your House

The arrival of spring encourages us to open up the windows, feel the breeze, and get rid of the junk we've accumulated over the Winter.

The same is true for your body.  Doesn't your system deserve the same cleaning and freshening that your house does?

During Winter, we tend to eat less of our healthiest foods, especially fresh fruits and vegetables.  Our Winter substitute foods inevitably contain more carbs, sugars, and fats, clogging up our digestive systems. Colon hydrotherapy, combined with a diet richer in fresh vegetables and fruits, can help clear accumulated waste and toxins from your system.



Holistic Health & Fitness is a Leader
in Providing Colon Hydrotherapy
  • We are the largest colonic center in St Louis, with five colon hydrotherapists providing sessions seven days a week.  Holistic has provided colonics for over 14 years, and our therapists have over 40 years of combined experience. 
  • Our facility has two state-of-the-art colonic rooms, with FDA-Approved Hydro-San Colon Hydrotherapy devices.  
  • All of our water is filtered to provide the safest and most effective sessions.
We consistently get positive feedback on our colon hydrotherapy procedures.   Here are a couple of recent reviews:

Review from Yelp: I bought a series of 3 colonics this winter. I had Esther as a therapist. She is wonderful. I have had colonics off and on for 20 years all over the USA. The equipment at Holistic Fitness is excellent.  I believe that Esther meets people where they are at, different for beginners than she would be with those who are more experienced. So, I think that anyone would appreciate their session. 

Review from Yelp:   My hydrotherapist is fabulous!  She is very knowledgeable and provided me with a ton of information.  Not only did she explain the procedure and how the body works, but she also gave me tips about changes I could make.  She made the treatment easy and I didn't feel embarrassed at all. The clinic has tons of information for you to read also.  I am definitely a regular at Holistic.

March & April Specials
Difficulty reading this version of our Specials?  
We are a Comprehensive Bodywork Center
(Offering so much more than the massage chains!)

Many of you have seen massage chains popping up in your local strip malls.  We are pleased to see massage enter the mainstream, as therapeutic touch can be beneficial for everyone.  However, the downside is that people begin to believe that the chain-store approach is the only form of therapeutic bodywork---in many cases, a more specialized form of massage is necessary.  

We have assembled a team of therapists trained in a wide variety of techniques, including: 
  • Myofascial Release
  • Lymphatic Drainage
  • Raindrop Therapy
  • CranioSacral Technique (Upledger Method)
  • Orthopedic Based Bodywork
  • Reiki
  • Pranic Healing
  • Deep Tissue & Touch
  • Zero Balancing
  • Visceral Manipulation
  • Hot Stone
  • Swedish Methods
  • Reflexology
  • and more....
We are proud of our diverse and well trained group of therapists!  To see the specialties of each therapist, check out our massage page.

Late Cancellation Fees:  

We Don't Like Charging Them....
..........and Clients Sure Don't Like Paying Them!  



We get it.  Life can be complicated, and unexpected events can affect your schedule.  We try our best to accommodate any changes you might need to make.  However,please consider the following regarding appointments.  

Your Therapists Time:   They've set aside time to care for you, and will have an unused hour if you don't keep your appointment---please respect their commitment to your health.
 
Other Clients' Health:  If you have a session reserved and don't use it, others were not able to be treated - most time slots have multiple requests from several clients.
 
Emergencies:  Let us know immediately of any changes, and we'll try to fill the slot without charging you.  We would rather fill the slot than charge you!
 
Voicemail:  Always leave a message the minute you are aware of a change--we check messages offsite, and may be able to fill your slot without charging you.
 
Online Changes:  Before midnight the day prior to your session, the online appointment system will allow you to cancel online.  Doing so often allows others to see the open slot and fill it.  In this case, please also give us a call after cancelling the appointment.
 
Wait Lists:  If you have a frequently-changing work or child-care schedule, ask to be added to a wait-list instead of booking an appointment.  You will be called the day of your request, when your schedule is more predictable.

Please help us out by honoring your appointments
