We are purists when it comes to natural beauty. We believe that a balanced, holistic approach to beauty, health & wellbeing is the best one. We're big on results. Nothing we do here is without purpose & benefit. Our products are effective & substantial, not "fluff". Our treatments are chosen with results in mind, yet not at the expense of safety or risk of long-term negative side-effects.

So why blog about it, aren't our beliefs implicit in our menu offerings? Well yes, but we believe being educated is a huge part of holistic wellness & while we're honored to have our clients' trust in our choices, we want to offer info that enables you to make your own conclusions--for you as an individual; a unique whole. We are all different. Our personal belief structures vary. Some of us are drawn to product-centered treatments, other prefer technology. We wish to offer options alongside insight and, let's be honest, we'll be including our recommendations...because we can't help ourselves.

So much goes into what we offer here at The Fifth Om, from evaluating products [ingredients + efficacy + potential return on investment (on the personal level, not business)+ overall experience], to sorting through treatments and trends (assessing which are worthy of the hype, those that aren't, and their potential ROI), and we recognize the immense effort it takes to truly find answers. Quite frankly, reconciling the often incomplete or incongruous information in this industry can be incredibly involved and confusing--definitions and verbiage vary so widely that researching products, services, tools, etc. could be a full-time job.

So, it is our intention to be a resource. To answer questions here that we field regularly in our studio, and to bring light to other, lesser known considerations. If you have any questions that you'd like us to explore, please shoot them over. We'd love to hear from you.

As cooler weather settles in, our wellness and beauty routine can also settle into the natural exhale of wintering. Being fully in the ‘ber months is not just about temperature changes or throwing on an extra layer. We have an opportunity to recalibrate and align ourselves with natural cycles; not just the ones outside of us, but the ones within us as well.

Rebalancing with the seasons in body, mind, and beauty, can be as simple as taking time to rest. As we prepare for the winter, this season can also be a time to reflect on how we rest and what needs rebalancing.

There is wisdom in every season. Fall encourages introspection and letting go while also carrying warm tones of gold and copper. Observing these qualities of the season, we can build practices that support our well-being and rebalance with the season.

Remember, it’s the small, intentional shifts that can make a significant difference over time. Here are a few ways we can help you embrace seasonal changes:

Adjust Your Skincare Routine
Fall can often create dry skin, requiring a more attentive moisturizing routine or even rehydration treatments. A holistic skincare routine takes into account the whole picture; meeting you where you are at with your skin. In addition to clean skincare on the shelf in our studio space, we also offer a results-driven holistic skincare menu from a classic facial to our seasonal Gold n’ Glow facial.

Movement and Rest
As we rebalance, we may feel called to change the way we exercise or the way we rest. Summer can often bring us more energy, but the fall may feel cozier and require more gentle self care practices such as yoga or a Far Infrared (FIR) sauna session. Regular sessions in the Far Infrared (FIR) Sauna can support overall well-being and beauty from the inside out. It warms the body’s core temperature, offering a cascade of physical, mental, and beauty benefits.

Supporting Emotional & Mental Wellness
Autumn can certainly invite us to be more introspective. We can use this time for reflection, journaling, or receiving energy work. Booking a massage can offer mental clarity and the deep relaxation we crave. Being in the season of letting go, we can tap into that wisdom so we can make room for new experiences.

Find Your Dedicated Wellness Spot
Whether it is a dedicated spot in your home, or it happens to be our holistic wellness spa, our intention is to curate seasonal wellness experiences to support you in rebalancing with the seasons. The warmth of the FIR sauna, specialized facials, and massages are designed to support your journey through the seasons.

Holistic rebalancing with the seasons is not a one-size-fits-all approach. The first step to holistic wellness is to honor your unique needs. Then, from that place of honoring, self-care can become intentional, meaningful, and even more nourishing in body, mind, and beauty.
