In a recent study by the American Heart Association, 79% of respondents admitted to overlooking their own health needs during the holiday season. It’s so easy to get caught up in a whirlwind of decorating, shopping, parties, and family gatherings. But it’s just as important to take care of yourself so that you can enjoy the holidays.
We are so lucky to live in Park City, with easy access to so many ways to stay healthy. We enjoy nearly year-round outdoor activities, fresh air, a huge variety of health and wellness classes, and access to healthy, whole foods. We talked to some local wellness businesses and got their tips and recommended treatments for the holidays.
Mellow Mountain Massage
Owner and head massage therapist Shawna says her biggest priority is drinking lots of water and taking time for herself, whether it’s to read a book, take a walk outdoors, or get a spa treatment. She offers several different massage treatments and great add-ons like dry brushing for dry skin or the Hand and Heel Treatment. Book your appointment in Coalville or the new Park City location in Prospector.
MDSKin Lounge | Medical Spa
This med spa in Redstone is the perfect place for a few hours of self-care. The aestheticians offer a variety of luxurious, medical-grade facials, while injectors can give you a boost with several options for injections. From Botox to B12, this is the spot that will make you look better and feel better.
PC Yoga Collective
Another favorite Redstone spot for self-care is PC Yoga Collective. The yoga studio is a local’s favorite, thanks to excellent teachers and unique radiant heating that is more comfortable than traditional hot yoga. They offer near-hourly classes on many days and have some of the most reasonable prices of any yoga studio in Park City.
Mountain Wellness Kitchen
Eating healthy is one of the hardest parts of the holidays. Between dinner parties and cookie exchanges, healthy eating usually takes a back seat this time of year. But it doesn’t have to. Mountain Wellness Kitchen in Heber offers weekly meal delivery made with gluten-free, sugar-free nutrient-dense ingredients. You can also stop by the cafe in Heber City and sample some of their smoothies, bowls, and soups.
