Float. Breathe.
Return to yourself.
A private warm-water sanctuary tucked into the oaks above Los Angeles — where the body is held, the breath softens, and the mind finally lets go.
A quiet place
Hidden in the oaks above the city.
Our sanctuary sits high in the hills of Woodland Hills — a slow, sun-warmed house surrounded by ancient oaks, sage, and birdsong. The pool is kept at body temperature year-round. The air smells like cedar after rain.
People arrive carrying the city. They leave noticeably lighter.
What is WRT?
Water Release Therapy —bodywork in stillness.
WRT Water Release Therapy is a form of aquatic therapy practiced in chest-deep water warmed to 95°F — close to the temperature of skin. You are floated, supported, gently stretched, and rocked in slow, continuous movement.
Gravity disappears. The breath deepens. The spine, freed from weight, unwinds in ways it cannot on land. What follows is a state the nervous system rarely visits — somewhere between sleep, meditation, and being held.
Pool kept at skin temperature, year-round.
A single session — most people stay for two.
The Flow
Four movements, one long exhale.
Arrive
Tea on the deck. We talk briefly about your body and your week.
Enter
You step into the warm pool. Your ears go below the surface.
Float
Held and moved through slow stretches. Time loosens.
Rest
Wrapped in a robe, you lie under the oaks until you're ready.
Why WRT
What the water gives back.
Deep relaxation
Warm water and weightlessness drop the body into parasympathetic rest.
Nervous system reset
Heart rate slows; cortisol falls; the breath becomes long and easy.
Muscle release
Spine and joints decompress through gentle, supported movement.
Emotional release
Many people meet stored grief, tenderness, or quiet joy in the water.
Better sleep
Most clients report the deepest sleep of the month that same night.
Reconnection
A felt sense of body, breath, and being held — often missed in daily life.
The Sanctuary
A house, a pool, an opening in the trees.
Every detail — the cedar deck, the warm stone, the still water — is arranged to make stopping feel inevitable.
“I came in carrying a year. I left feeling like the water had quietly taken it from me, without ever asking.”
