How are listings in New York chosen?

Every listing on Sanctuary Ground is reviewed by a person before it goes live. Verified listings have also had their identity and credentials checked, and owner-run listings are kept up to date by the business itself. Both are shown first in this guide.

Can I book directly?

Yes. Each listing has the practitioner's or space's own contact details, and many take booking requests through Sanctuary Ground.
