Lotus Sanctuary

Owner Jodi Ketchum has spent a decade helping clients unwind with Tuina bodywork and therapeutic massage. At Lotus's Los Angeles location, she exclusively practices Tuina, an ancient form of Chinese massage that has helped restore wellness reportedly since 2300 BCE. At her San Diego location, Ketchum joins with other wellness and Oriental medicine practitioners to guide guests through yoga classes, Tuina bodywork, massage, and acupuncture. Both locations are airy and bright, a concept that runs throughout the facilities and is evoked by plants, large windows, and light hardwood floors. Customers can schedule appointments online or, after studying yoga at the center, shape their bodies into letters that spell out appointment requests.
