In Treatment

After constant bouts of sickness and muscle aches, Sandra Lanshin Chiu left her her high-profile job as an investment banker- where she worked 100-hour weeks- to pursue traditional Chinese medicine, including acupuncture and an ancient massage method that focuses on body alignment called Ortho-Bionomy, which is rooted in Osteopathy. And it is at her unique holistic spa in Williamsburg, Brooklyn where these tools based in nature’s wisdom and ancient healing technologies can awaken you to your greater self. Treatment by Lanshin is more than a spa and far beyond a typical wellness center that is accessible inside a beautiful and warm environment of understated luxury and tranquil vibrations.

Chiu acknowledges that stress, struggle and strain have become far too commonplace, not to mention poor posture which leads to feeling out of whack. Think the work cubicle is the biggest culprit for your back issues? Think again, as Chiu insists over- and incorrect- exercising will do it… take that Cross Fit addicts. Aiming to alleviate body pain, dysfunction and blockages that get in the way of life force, the studio delivers curated healing work at an exceptional level of quality and innovation. Acupuncture, massage, skin care and Chinese herbs boost your body, mind and spirit, while less conventional methods such as cupping- hello Gwyneth Paltrow- restores healthy circulation by placing small cups on your trouble areas, extracting wastes and toxins that get trapped in your tissues. Gently stimulating the body for self-correction, immune boosters, medicinal plants and natural re-alignment are Chiu’s prescription for beauty and strength.  I better stop slouching now…  www.lanshin.com
