Yoga in Latham

“So I’d like to tell you all about the wonderful experience I’m having at WellNest Studio. I’m in my 70’s and for various reasons have not been doing any exercise for over 5 years. I decided to take back my body so I could enjoy the next phase of my life - retirement!!! A friend told me about WellNest and I decided to give them a try. They’re located in the Peter Harris Plaza and are easy to get to from anywhere. I went in to check it out and met with owner Bill. I walked out all signed up for ten sessions with a Personal Trainer, Jason. I am so glad I took this chance. The gym itself is small and personal but has everything you need. Jason patiently listened while I whined about how I haven’t done anything for such a long time and that I had some ongoing physical issues that made me nervous. He developed a program taking all this into consideration and I’m now in the middle of my second ten sessions. I go twice weekly and Jason continues to listen to me whine and at the same time encourages me to keep going. I totally see a big difference in my abilities and am determined to let him get me to a point that I’m comfortable maintaining. I love that the trainers (Jason for me) listens every session to what I say and adjusts my workout accordingly. I can’t recommend this place or their staff enough. You won’t be sorry if you give it a try!!!“

“Working with Raya at Raya Wellness has been one of the most meaningful and healing experiences in my life. Her care as both a massage therapist and nutritional guide has had a profound impact on my overall health and wellbeing.

Raya approaches wellness holistically. Through therapeutic bodywork, thoughtful nutritional guidance, and genuine compassion, she helped me begin addressing deeper imbalances in my body instead of simply managing symptoms. One of the key recommendations she made was introducing me to the CellCore protocol to help support detoxification and overall cellular health.

When I first began working with Raya, I was going through an incredibly difficult period in my life. I had experienced repeated miscarriages and was also carrying deep grief from the loss of my mother, who had battled long-term COVID before ultimately passing away from cancer. Physically and emotionally, I was depleted.

Raya supported me through that season with patience, knowledge, and care. Her guidance helped me focus on restoring my body and supporting my health from the inside out.

I truly believe that the work we did together played an important role in helping my body regain balance. In August 2025, I was blessed to carry and deliver a healthy baby boy — something that once felt uncertain after everything I had been through.

Raya’s care is deeply personal, compassionate, and knowledgeable. She genuinely invests in the wellbeing of the people she works with, and I cannot recommend Raya Wellness highly enough for anyone seeking holistic support for their health, healing, and the big one for me my fertility journey at 41 years old.“

“We decided hot yoga would be a nice wellness boost during our annual concert trip to the Capital Region this year so we booked an 8:30 heated Bikram session. We found their website easily by Google search and we chose the Lanham location from their 6 available locations.The spot was clean and offered a large lobby, both men's & women's changing rooms, and several bathrooms. The studio itself is large and for my visit was well lit and most certainly hot. This was my first time practicing Bikram. The instructor, Tim, provided constant and efficent direction while keeping the 90 minute class on track.My experience was great, and I would certainly consider a future viisit here. I will add that classes other than Bikram, such as Vinyasa, are offered here.“

“Dr. Uhl was able to help me get back to being a college athlete even when we didn’t know what was wrong. He did a great job, he was very good at checking in and making sure that I was okay and seemed like he wanted me to understand the treatment beforehand in its entirety. His office staff, as well as himself, are also very nice and welcoming.“
