Our Story

Violet Wellness Spa was born from a love of service, healing arts and the unique synergies we have developed blending Eastern and Western healing modalities and wellness.

Our journey began in 2018 when we shared a passion for Buddhist and Taoist philosophies and the discipline and mastery of Qi Gong. We continued that journey by sharing the details of our individual modalities.

We began to collaborate on a book about living seasonally, in concert with the earth and cosmos and their cycles. We hosted seasonal dinners that paired the fruits, vegetables, herbs and meats that were available in the season and crafting a multi-course meal around them.

Then, during the pandemic, we hosted weekly remote group meditation sessions. Every Saturday night for more than two years we shared wisdom on a range of topics and then led a meditation on that topic. We continued practicing in our respective modalities, but we began to form a vision of a joint effort toward health and wellness.

We bought a tired, older building in the quaint village of Old Fair Oaks. We managed tenants while we hatched plans for a wellness center that would merge our vision and modalities into a community for health and wellness. We drew up plans and began the remodel process.

The remodel process took over three years from drawings to final inspection. During that time, we wrote a book together, Meditation and the Meridians, that drew from our group meditation material and blended Traditional Chinese Medicine with meditation. And we are drawing near to completion of the seasonal living book, Stay Healthy with the Seasons. We also drew up a business plan for creating a community for health and wellness.

And, on February first of 2025, we opened the doors of Violet Wellness Spa and Tian Chao Herbs and Acupuncture’s second location.
