This is a paid piece from Selah Space.
Simplified: Selah Space, a Sioux Falls holistic wellness cooperative, opened in 2020 with the mission of bringing healing to all aspects of a woman's life – mind, body and spirit. The mission is the same, but the depth and breadth of the cooperative's offering has grown tremendously. Here's what you need to know ahead of the grand re-opening.
Why it matters
- Founder and Owner Jada Dobesh created Selah Space for the women who are, as she puts it, "technically fine." They're busy. They're taking care of their kids, work, households, all while ignoring or putting off caring for their own needs.Three years later, Selah Space is celebrating an expansion that doubles its footprint and makes room for 10 providers.
- Selah Space is recognizing that growth with a grand re-opening celebration and ribbon cutting with the Sioux Falls Area Chamber of Commerce.
- It's all about providing holistic care, both in big ways and in small, Dobesh said. That means caring about everything from your pelvic floor to your sore muscles to your mental health to your spiritual life. The providers work together to heal all of the areas that need support.
"This is my best version of creating that village that women need," Dobesh said. "This is the safe space filled with safe women who want you to succeed, who want you to be healthy and who are going to fight for your holistic healing."
