To take care of the people around you, you need to take care of yourself first. 

It’s easy to place your own wellbeing at the bottom of the to-do list when you’re busy with everything life throws at you. But in the long run, that will leave you burnt out, or even unwell. It’s true what they say — you can’t pour from an empty cup!

Luckily for us, we’re spoilt with an abundance of local businesses whose sole purpose is to support your mental, physical and emotional wellbeing. Here are some you can turn to when you’re feeling run down, or even better, before you even get to that point:

Or why not indulge in their RollShape lymphatic massage system, which uses rotating wooden rollers and infrared lamps to boost circulation and detoxify the body? Davaar House goes beyond physical treatments, as they foster self-care and healing with yoga, guided meditation and personalised Traditional Chinese Medicine consultations.
