Southwest Mind & Body Care

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unseasonably cold morning in Phoenix when a delivery driver pulled up to Southwest Mind & Body Care. The sign outside read ‘Healing Hands,’ but no one had seen any hands—just a big neon owl welcoming visitors. As he approached the door, a friendly voice called out: 'Hey there, welcome to Healing Hands!' Turning around, our delivery guy saw only the owl's glowing eyes peering back at him from inside the clinic. With a shrug, he entered—and found himself face-to-face with a regular who asked cheerfully, 'So, what brings you here today?'

2. At sunset one day, a curious child peered into Southwest Mind & Body Care and watched as a therapist calmly guided a statue of a bird through yoga poses. Suddenly, an old delivery driver walked in, confused and asking for directions. The therapist smiled and gently adjusted his posture, explaining he was at the wrong place—this wasn’t FedEx HQ after all.

3. A neighborhood dog started visiting every afternoon, standing outside the clinic's door and staring intently at the patients leaving. Then one day a delivery driver arrived with a big bouquet of flowers for no apparent reason. The dog sniffed them curiously, wagged its tail, and walked in, never to leave again. Since then, everyone jokes that Southwest Mind & Body Care must be selling more than just massages—maybe they’ve discovered the secret recipe for perfect doggy relaxation.

4. At dawn, when most clinics are quiet, a mysterious bird began singing outside Southwest Mind & Body Care. The song grew louder and more insistent, waking up everyone in the building. A puzzled receptionist opened the window, only to discover it was just an enthusiastic sparrow. Undeterred, she smiled and said, 'Well, good morning, little singer!' From then on, patients arriving early for their sessions often brought breakfast for the now-famous feathered mascot.
