I cannot believe that it is already getting towards the end of August! I know that’s how many of us always feel as summer comes to its last, savored weeks, when we can move at a slower pace, enjoy some spontaneity, and longer, slower summer days/nights. 🌊 🌅

If you’ve been thinking about booking an outdoor massage or face + body treatment, or daydreaming about a Relax WELL Day, now is the perfect time to reserve something for September! Having some self-care on the calendar is a wonderful way to ease back into the change of season. ☺️

We will be doing some improvements on the space and getting it looking beautiful for the fall. I can not thank you enough for your patience with the hydro. This has been a much longer pause than anticipated - and I am so sorry for that- but hoping to be able to give you more info soon. Until then our backyard is beautiful and our massages and spa experiences are amazing. 💫

We hope to see you soon and please know we miss being able to provide our hydrotherapy and community sessions so much. Thank you for your understanding.

Enjoy a lovey rest of summer and see you soon
💙 Liz & the cityWell team

Join us for a night of live Jazz in our beautiful outdoor oasis in Gowanus. $45 includes drinks & snacks & Jazz.

About the band: 🎶✨🌿 Askerov, Togami & Swanson

Arthur Askerov on guitar, Zachary Swanson on double bass and Yuko Togami on percussion, perform a mixture of jazz standards and contemporary songs. Musically the ensemble is a veritable collective, each member equal in their abilities to lead and support. This communal element and trust in each other is evident not only in the heightened interplay but in the group’s arrangements, which are malleable and develop in real time. Subtlety, refined timbre and tonal complexities create a lush trio sound. Dynamics and density shift as the music unfolds, unveiling an ensemble that moves as one.

I took a quick trip to Iceland 🌋💧🧖🏼‍♀️
(pronounced) Ese-land by the locals.

A place I had always wanted to visit, known for its communal bathing culture, Iceland was earthy and rocky, just as you might expect from a volcanic island.

A few things I learned from this quick trip, is that this country, with only 350,000 inhabitants, is run by women. Icelanders pride themselves on being “simpletons” and fishing is their main source of income, as well as tourism, as evidenced by the many languages spoken at the Blue Lagoon.

The last photo was taken at “Tipsy”, which had just been rated the #1 bar in Iceland! The very skilled bartender explained that their language had not really evolved over the last 1,000 years. Their words are very long and almost no slang is used. Most Icelanders speak perfect English, making it easy to communicate. And they are very proud of their Viking heritage.

After this brief interlude, I returned to the first day of spring in Brooklyn, warm sun, buds pushing their way into the world and a quiet backyard that is so often filled with wonderful people basking and bathing with others.

Unfortunately, we have had to pause our hydrotherapy while we update our facilites. We are so sorry to not be hosting our community sessions and seeing your kind and happy faces.

Until then, we continue to offer our wonderful hot stone massages, body scrubs, some new solo and packages for two, as well as face + body treatments. Link in bio~

We are still offering you a space to gather for special occasions and we will be starting meditation in May. 🧘🏻The Pergola is now open for outdoor massages and body treatments, (weather pending).🌿

It continues to be our mission to create a warm & welcoming space to care for your body and mind. We hope you will enjoy our nature filled backyard and offerings. Stop by for a tea, read a book, swing in our hammock and stay for “un verre” after a revitalizing scrub or massage.🥂🫖🧉

Thank you again for all your support after all these years. It is the people who make up our team and community that keep us inspired and looking towards the future.

Warmly,
Liz & the cityWell team 💕

Dear cityWell Community,

We want to share a quick update with you. Our hydrotherapy space and our community hours are temporarily closed while we take a short pause to make a few updates behind the scenes. We look forward to reopening the space soon and welcoming you back for the full cityWell experience. 💧

In the meantime, our beautiful space remains open for massage and body treatments 7 days a week with extended hours on Sunday, and we warmly invite you to come in, slow down, and take care of yourself. After your session, we encourage you to linger a little longer- unwind in our peaceful garden space and enjoy a cup of tea and seasonal fruit as your body continues to relax and restore. 🩵

If you’ve been feeling the need to reset, restore, or simply carve out a moment of quiet for yourself, we would love to welcome you in.

Thank you so very much for your patience and understanding. We know how important this space and community are to so many of you—it’s one of my favorite parts of cityWell—so please know we’ll be missing you too. We’ll keep you updated and appreciate you all so much. 💕

Warmly,
Liz & the cityWell Team

We’re also delighted to introduce our newest massage therapist, Roan Shea, who is now seeing clients Friday through Monday ✨

Roan is a Licensed Massage Therapist based in Brooklyn, as well as an athlete, artist, and martial arts practitioner. He brings these disciplines together to support a thoughtful and holistic understanding of the body, one that blends empathy with a strong foundation in anatomy and science.

Roan approaches massage as a collaborative and energetic exchange, where communication and individualized care are at the center of each session. During his training in the QCC Massage Therapy Program, he focused on slow myofascial release techniques that provide deep, lasting relief. His own experience with chronic pain and injury informs his patient, attentive, and thorough approach.

Roan has openings this weekend!

Additionally, enjoy 15% off your massage when you book with him—valid for appointments in March. Please mention ROAN15 in the notes when booking.

Same day appointments: Message us, call 347-294-0100, or email us [email protected]
