Boise Green Living: Wellness As Business

Massage therapist Colleen Fletcher makes a living using her hands to put people at ease but
years ago her hands and her work were at odds.

"When I first started my practice in '95 I had reactions to the oils that were out there," Fletcher
explains.

To fix the problem Fletcher had custom organic products made. When her clients started asking
for them, she started selling. Now Fletcher runs two websites where clients can purchase the
same products found at her Boise home business.

Gina Theresa, a client of Fletchers, doesn't mind swapping some extra money for an organic
massage treatment or for make up and skin care products without petro-chemicals. For her, it's
all just part of a holistic way of living.

"If you feel good on the inside it's going to show on the outside," Theresa said.

Theresa thinks more people will adopt this "greener" sense of wellness in the future and if that
holds true it's a good sign for Fletcher's growing business.
