About Chakra Khan Massage and Asian Bodywork

In July 2008, we opened Chakra Khan to create a beautiful and enjoyable healing environment where you can come to relax and revive. We also host a rotation of artists throughout the year to enhance our space. Our mission is to help you reconnect with your body. We aim to help you feel better — more alive, more connected, more aware — and to find enjoyment in the process!

I love my body

I love my body! became the unofficial slogan for Chakra Khan somewhere along the way. I love my body! is about empowerment and celebration of the bodies we live in. Our bodies are amazing! I love my body! is about self-respect. All of us, no matter what gender, age, size, height, shape, race, class, sexual orientation or culture should jump-for-joy at our fantastic body homes. We want this message shouted from the mountain tops! Remind yourself to be kind to yourself with one of our fun stickers from the CK shop--or email us and we'll tell you how to get one by mail.
