Here are Bentonville’s best five Wellness and Health in Arkansas! Discover the finest in local design, highlighting their exceptional expertise, creativity, and innovative flair that set them apart. Let’s delve into the best of excellence Wellness and Health in Bentonville.
Established in 2010 and located in Downtown Bentonville in Northwest Arkansas, Yoga Story offers a varied selection of styles and temperatures. You need no special ability, no special training, no special look. You can be well connected, have a small tribe or be brand new to town. At Yoga Story, we know you aren’t WHO you know, WHAT you wear or what you DO. You are more than that. And we are more than just asana, the physical postures. We are more than just calories burned. We are more than just sweat. We are empowerment. We are education. We are authenticity.
And together, we are magic.
Yoga Story is more than just yoga classes. From Bodywork to Teacher Training and Specialized Workshops, we are committed to providing you with all the tools you need to find your magic.
1. Power Classes
Designed to be a “flow” style vinyasa practice, these classes range in temperature and pace. The schedule will indicate if they are hot or room temp (e.g., Lunch Flow). We recommend having some yoga knowledge or fitness base for these classes. Beginners can take these classes but we suggest being open to not doing all the postures & modifying them as needed with the understanding that the hot classes are between 85-90 degrees in temperature.
2. Slower Style Classes
Classes of a slower style pace, whether you are new to yoga, looking to bridge the gap between styles or simply need a more relaxed pace, these styles will soothe both mind & body. Classes in this category are: Slow Flow (a chill flow at room temp); Yin (a cooling stretch based class); Yin & Yang (a fusion of slow flow and yin); Begin (just starting a physical yoga practice).
You’ll find regular sound baths on our schedule during Yin & Sound and Meditation & Sound. These classes will not only calm your physical body but your nervous system as well with an immersive sound experience.
Qi Gong is a coordinated slow flowing movement & deep rhythmic breathing class that induces a calm meditative state of mind. As you practice, you will move chi, or life energy, to encourage the release of stale energy and bring in fresh energy into the body.
3. Fitness Style Classes
We love our yoga & we love fitness too! But don’t get it confused, yoga is so much more than physical postures. Fitness is all about that sweat! Some classes are fused with the structure of a yoga class with added strength & cardio benefits (e.g., Sculpt & Flow and Yoga Body Boost) and some are pure fitness (e.g., TRX & Mat Pilates). Come prepared to move & get your heart rate up with some great music! The Sculpt Cult is pretty infamous and you will get invited to drinks at the Dive after! TRX is full body conditioning with a suspension strap. Pop Pilates is a pilates class without the reformer and is focused on hip and core strength. You’ll perform challenging movements to music for a sweaty and fun class!

– Cryo Slim and Shape
Sessions use precise heating and cooling technology to help tighten the skin and shape the body. During the treatment, the massage wand is applied using a specialized technique in a localized area, such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, back, chin, or hips to naturally and painlessly reduce circumference through the activation of connective tissue, tighten and firm your skin, and promote a more defined appearance.
BENEFITS:
● Tighten the Skin
● Shapes the Body
● Reduce Inches in Waist, Chin, Arms & Legs
Sessions use cold massage to smooth, lift, and firm skin, reducing the appearance of imperfections and improving the skin’s overall texture. The application of cold temperatures temporarily increases local blood circulation which promotes the production of collagen and elastin, helping to tone, smooth and shape areas lacking elasticity. We typically recommend clients receive a minimum of five Tone treatments for best results.
BENEFITS:
● Smooth, Lift, and Firm Skin
● Improve Texture and Appearance of Skin.
– Cryo facial
Sessions are designed to help brighten, tone, firm, and lift. Neveskin offers 8 facial treatment options to promote firm, bright, lifted, calm, rejuvenated, and youthful skin for the ultimate facial experience.

Soothe treatments are the perfect natural, safe, and non-invasive option for athletes, weekend warriors, or anyone experiencing discomfort who simply wants to feel their best so they can continue to do the things they love.
BENEFITS:
● Reduce Aches and Pains
● Less Inflammation
