About Our Holistic Wellness Center
The Healing Agenda opened in 2022 with a simple mission: give people access to natural, holistic wellness options that actually work—without the intimidation, jargon, or gatekeeping that too often surrounds alternative healing.
We offer pathways to healing that have been used for centuries—Himalayan salt cave halotherapy, sensory deprivation float therapy, infrared sauna, yoni steaming, and therapeutic massage. Ancient wisdom meets modern therapeutic technology in a space designed to feel approachable, not exclusive.
Whether you're managing seasonal allergies, chronic pain, stress, skin conditions, or simply need to reset and breathe, we're here to support your journey. We believe healing should be accessible to everyone, which is why we offer affordable memberships, walk-in hours, and a judgment-free environment where you can explore what works for your body.
At The Healing Agenda, your wellness is our priority—and we're honored to be part of your holistic journey.

Sarah
Founder & Massage Therapist
Sarah is the heart behind The Healing Agenda. A licensed massage therapist since 2014, she specializes in intuitive deep tissue work—meaning she listens to what your body needs and adapts her approach accordingly. No two sessions are the same.
Her lifelong dream was to create a space dedicated to holistic alternatives and natural wellness, accessible to everyone in the Chippewa Valley. In 2022, that dream became reality when she opened The Healing Agenda, bringing the region's first salt cave and a comprehensive menu of healing modalities to Eau Claire.
Sarah's approach to wellness is practical, not preachy. She believes healing doesn't have to be complicated, expensive, or exclusive—it just has to meet you where you are.

As a Master Reiki healer, Niko works with the body's subtle energy systems to promote deep relaxation, stress relief, and emotional release.

Rachel
Licensed Cosmetologist & Waxing Specialist
Rachel started her career cutting and styling hair but quickly discovered her true passion: the art of waxing. For her, it's more than a beauty service—it's about helping people feel confident, comfortable, and cared for in their own skin.
A grounded Taurus through and through, Rachel brings calm, steady energy to her work. She's the person you want in the room when you're feeling vulnerable—her presence puts clients at ease, making even intimidating services feel safe and approachable.
When she's not at The Healing Agenda, Rachel hunts for hidden treasures at local consignment shops and thrift stores, or hangs out at home with her three cats. If she could start over, she'd be an archaeologist at the edge of the world, uncovering stories buried in time. For now, she's creating her own kind of magic—one wax at a time.
