LAURA FLOSS
Laura graduated from the New York Institute of Massage in 2018 with a passion to help others. Since then, she’s become trained in cupping, functional stretching, and CORE Myofasical Therapy. Laura has experienced the benefits of massage therapy firsthand after a car accident left her with whiplash. Now, she finds it rewarding to help facilitate people on their journey to feel and move better.

She continues to practice her own self-care through massage, acupuncture, and chiropractic work, in addition to dynamic stretching, yoga, self-myofascial release using massage balls, and strength and conditioning workouts. Her favorite treatment is obviously a therapeutic massage with cupping (she may be a bit biased), but she also has come to love HydraFacials and dermaplaning. Laura’s favorite products are our mushroom tinctures (cerebrum by Anima Mundi and 11:11 by rainbo). She also loves our Botnia Clarity Oil and the COSMEDIX Crystal Eye Serum. Laura enjoys the amazing 716 community. GO BILLS!

Shari Fruchtel
After spending 20+ Years in the Corporate IT World, Shari felt it was time for a change. She started a Wellness and Weightloss Journey to improve her personal health and lost 50+ pounds, which led to her desire to become certified in Health and Nutrition. After working one on one with clients and co-founding a Corporate Wellness Program, Shari took a step back to re-evaluate her direction, and it brought her B Well! She recognizes that health and wellness isn’t only about food and moving your body; it’s about taking care of yourself mentally. This industry is that for her. To maintain her own self-care, Shari works out regularly, eats well, and takes care of her skin and body. Her favorite treatments here at B Well are the Hydrafacial, Cupping, and a Deep Tissue Massage. DMK are her skin care products of choice. She does a DMK at home mask religiously once a week. She is a mother of 2 girls (can you guess one of them?) and 2 fur babies. Fun fact: She is the author of a published children’s book! The 716 is her home; you can’t find people anywhere else like you find here.
