About
Alexis Thomas
17 years of massage. 19 years of yoga. One building that became two.
My story
I am from New Orleans. I lost everything in Katrina, and in 2017 I came to McComb “temporarily.” I stayed.
I have been a massage therapist for 17 years, and pain relief is the work I care about most. I have practiced yoga for 19 years and have taught as a registered yoga teacher since 2019. I live with chronic pain myself. Bliss is built out of the tools I use to stay functional: bodywork, heat, movement, breath, and food that helps instead of hurts.
My mission is to make movement and a balanced lifestyle available to everyone, especially people battling chronic pain, in a blissful and nurturing environment. That is not a slogan. It is the reason the sauna is $25 a month and not more.

Ocean Meets Earth
What I want you to feel
When I picture Bliss, the words I keep coming back to are Ocean Meets Earth. I want you to walk in and feel transported to natural beauty, somewhere calmer and softer than the day you just left outside.
The Retreat is its own place, and it has its own picture: a secret garden, hidden in plain sight. See it here.
Bliss Nutrition
The tea
I have a small nutrition shop, and it is not Herbalife. I redesigned the recipes myself: organic dried fruit for flavor, a caffeine free energy line, and a relaxation tea for the end of the day. $3 to $10, at The Studio.
Shop small, support local
Local art, pottery, jewelry, essential oil blends and bath products from artisans around McComb. Bliss takes zero commission on artisan sales in store, as a gift to the community. Meet RAD Momma Creations.
