New wellness center to help relieve stress during the pandemic opens in Santa Clarita

The Healing Studio opens to help people relieve stress

The Healing Studio opened on Monday in Santa Clarita in order to help people relieve stress during the COVID-19 pandemic.

SANTA CLARITA, Calif. - A wellness center called "The Healing Studio" is opening Monday in Santa Clarita.

The center is run by Alex Urbina. Urbina said the center includes two "healing chambers" that utilize a device called the Harmonic Egg.

"There's a lot of stress and anxiety and depression so I think this an opportunity to help people get their bodies and their minds and their spiritual awareness back down to a neutral state to start healing themselves," said Urbina.

The Harmonic Egg, designed by Gail Lynn, is a wooden chamber that creates an environment for relaxation and internal balance. The egg uses geometry, light, color and sound frequencies to stimulate participants. Lynn invented the device in 2016.

"It's more for stress relief and we know that 90 percent of the doctor visits are now saying they're all stress-related so when we can get the body to relax and reset the nervous system, then there's therapeutic benefits," she said.

All spas in Los Angeles County are closed with the exception of medical treatments, and Urbina said their studio is considered essential during the stay-at-home order.

"It's a wellness center and we're essential and we're here to really support people and help them cope with the stress and the anxieties and the depression that's coming out of the Covid pandemic," he said.
