TESTIMONIALS
"I’m already a huge fan of Zen Akari (their massages are the best!), but I’ve gotta hype up their Recovery Renewal membership. It’s honestly the best wellness deal you’ll find in South Lake Tahoe or anywhere around. The combination of powerful modalities like the red-light therapy bed, lymphatic shaking machine, NanoVi cellular-support oxygen system, and the full-body compression suit work together in the most incredible, holistic way!"
Anna
'Gabby is absolutely incredible. I still can’t believe how much tension and stress she was able to release from my body. I truly feel like a new person after my session with her. She was so kind and attentive throughout the entire process, and she tailored everything specifically to what I needed. I cannot wait for my next appointment!'
Kendal
"The BEST Massage! Everything! All of it! Because of Kerry's expertise in her craft, (and her sweet, friendly personality) her massages are out of this world! And she has done extensive research on other options for self care (red light therapy, lymphatic compression suit, NanoVi), all at a reasonable price. Great location, soothing ambience, outstanding staff. I'd give 10 stars if I could!"

MASSAGE
Intuitive, therapeutic bodywork designed to meet you exactly where you are. Each massage is customized to release tension, support recovery, and help your nervous system fully unwind. This is massage that actually changes how your body feels.
CRYOTHERAPY
A refreshing reset for tired muscles, inflammation, and mental fatigue. Cryotherapy helps reduce soreness, boost circulation, and wake up your body’s natural recovery response—fast, effective, and invigorating.
RED LIGHT THERAPY
Gentle, powerful light that works at a cellular level to support healing, circulation, and recovery. Red light therapy helps your body recharge from the inside out—perfect on its own or paired with massage for deeper results.
LONGEVITY/ RECOVERY
Modern therapies designed to help you feel better now while supporting long-term vitality. From nervous system regulation to cellular health, these services are about moving well, aging well, and staying resilient.
Stillness is rare in a place this alive because the trails keep calling, the lake keeps sparkling, and whether you're working, exploring, raising a family, or just trying to keep up, the days stay full—and your body feels it. If you’re not bouncing back like you used to, you’re not broken… you’re just overdue for intelligent recovery.
The truth is, most of us focus more on performance than on recovery—even though recovery is where the magic really happens. It’s not a luxury or a reward—it’s a necessity. And it’s for everyone: athletes, parents, teachers, bartenders, hikers, servers, caretakers, creatives. If you live here, your body’s doing more than you think.
We invite you to reimagine wellness—not as an afterthought, but as a ritual of restoration, transformation, and intentional care. At ZenAkari we’ve curated a lineup of science-backed therapies that help you feel better, recover faster, and live more fully—no matter how you Tahoe.
