Guests of The Spa at Hotel Chelsea on their sessions with John Wing Flower — shaman, energy healer and resident healing artist.

★★★★★“John Wing Flower’s Equilibrio treatment was absolutely amazing! To combine lymphatic drainage, with a facial, with healing; it’s truly like nothing else and I couldn’t recommend more highly if you want a special experience that leaves you looking and feeling so renewed from head to toe.”
“My treatment was with John Wing Flower, healer in residency who comes by for stints every so often. He was absolutely wonderful and inspiring, and I came away from the experience lighter and at ease. His lymphatic drainage treatment was effective and his expert energy healing was nothing like I’ve experienced. Highly recommend!! The spa facilities are stunning and the other staff are quite lovely.”

“I came to the Spa at Hotel Chelsea specifically seeking a session with John and my time there did not disappoint! Sessions with John are exactly what you need to bring balance and clarity. While there I decided to make a day of it. The staff made sure I would have a truly great experience, scheduling my sessions with enough time to enjoy the facilities (which are a treat of their own). The massage set me in just the right mood to receive John’s gifts. Every product used was both grounded and indulgent. And the hotel itself is a character in itself, steeped in NYC iconic history. I left my time in NYC renewed and with clarity of purpose. Thank you John for curating a wonderful healing experience ✨”
“John came recommended to me by a friend several months ago while I was recovering from a month-long hospital stay that left me depleted, depressed and anxious. I’d never experienced energy work, but I thought, “What do I have to lose?” From the jump, John made me feel welcome. He asked about my knowledge level around energy healing (none), took time to explain the session process and urged me to be open to whatever happened. The experience was instantly calming and energizing all at once. His use of stones, incense, chanting, breath work and light touch were hypnotic and took me to another place. When the session was complete, he took time to check in on what I had experienced. My color came back, I sat up stronger, I was talking more like myself. I’ve since seen him four times and each experience has been slightly different as he’s customized the session based on what my needs were that day. Whether you’re familiar with energy work, not new to the process, I’d urge you to give John a try.”
