sauna

Our private barrel sauna offers an immersive, deeply rejuvenating experience right in nature— no time limits, no crowds, just personalized wellness in a serene setting.

Sauna sessions support your body’s natural healing by increasing circulation, easing muscle tension, and flushing out toxins through sweat. Regular use may improve cardiovascular health, reduce inflammation, and promote deeper, more restful sleep.

Our Chill Tub Pro delivers an invigorating experience in a peaceful, natural setting— your own space to reset and reenergize on your terms.

Cold plunge therapy activates your nervous system, boosts circulation, and reduces inflammation to aid muscle recovery and improve mental clarity. It may support immune function, elevate mood, and increase stress resilience over time.

Creekside yoga

Surrounded by forest and the sound of Fightingtown Creek, our private platform creates the perfect environment for presence and peace. No mirrors, no pressure—just space to stretch, flow, and return to yourself in the heart of nature.

Practicing yoga outdoors calms the mind, improves flexibility, and reduces stress through mindful movement and breath.

why wellness

After years in pro hockey and a career in sports performance, my passion shifted from competition to longevity, a passion I share with my wife, Michele. Our passion led us here to the mountains of Blue Ridge, where we built LiveWell, a creekside wellness center and cabin designed for people who want to feel good, move better, and keep doing what they love.

I'm a functional health follower, on a journey to learn as much as possible to increase my health span, focused on optimizing my performance in the gym and on the ice, regularly using the sauna, cold plunge, and supplementation to maintain my speed and physical performance. An avid yoga practitioner, Michele understands the power of movement, friendship, and time spent together. Her close-knit circles and regular girls' trips have shaped the retreat's atmosphere, where you can reconnect, recharge, and share meaningful moments with the people who matter most.

Live Well Blue Ridge is our way of sharing what's helped us feel our best with the peace of the woods, the flow of the creek, and the tools that support lasting health.
