We’ve Moved!
As Big Ivy continues to expand, we have outgrown our previous home and have a brand new space! The newly constructed facility is in the building just behind our previous space, with 2,100 sq ft dedicated to rehab and wellness. This space will allow us to fully utilize our skills to help those in need in Weaverville and the surrounding areas, providing the most up to date techniques and equipment.
We have three designated private treatment rooms, as well as open gym space with all the essentials including cardio equipment, squat racks, kettlebells, cables, bands, medicine balls, and more! Each one is a tool that can be used given each person’s unique needs and goals under the expert guidance of one of our experienced therapists.

New Space, and a New Face!
Not only do we have a new home, we also have a new Doctor of Physical Therapy, Celeste Nicholson.
Get to know her!
Growing up I played almost every sport and enjoyed outdoor activities such as snowboarding and kayaking. After needing physical therapy for different sports injuries (ACL repairs, fractures, sprains) I knew that I wanted to be a physical therapist by the time I was a senior in high school. While playing tennis for Bellarmine University and then University of Tennessee Chattanooga, I earned my undergraduate degrees in Biology and Rehabilitation Science.
I earned my Doctorate of Physical Therapy at UTC in 2010. Because of my background in sports, I focused my early career on treating athletes and the active population and became a Sports Clinical Specialist and a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist. Now 14 years into my career, I have developed a broader understanding of activity. While I still enjoy treating competitive athletes of all levels and ages, I also appreciate the importance of helping everyone achieve the highest quality of active life they can. And I love helping them get there. I utilize a variety of manual techniques, exercise programs, and functional movements to help patients get back to what they love to do. For close to 13 years I have served Weaverville and the surrounding communities, which means I have communicated with a lot of doctors in this region.
Outside of work, you can find me squeezing in short runs in downtown Weaverville or doing a variety of outdoor recreational activities and sports with my husband and two kids.
New Space! New Face!

AABANI SALON: OUR MISSION, SERVICES, AND ANNOUNCEMENTS!
General AnnouncementsEarth Month at Aabani Salon!
We are of the Earth.
As we step into Earth Month, Aabani Salon is honored to embark on a journey of raising awareness and contributing to two crucial non-profit organizations that are dear to our hearts: Charity Water and The American Chestnut Foundation.
Charity Water: Providing Clean Water, Changing Lives
At Aabani, we firmly believe that access to clean water is not just a necessity but a fundamental human right. That’s why we’ve teamed up with Aveda to support Charity Water, an organization dedicated to ensuring communities worldwide have access to safe drinking water. Clean water isn’t just about quenching thirst; it’s about fostering health, education, and economic opportunities. Through Charity Water’s locally-led projects, we’re helping rehabilitate old water systems, build new ones, and provide vital sanitation and hygiene training where it’s needed most.
Join Us in Making a Difference
There are two ways to support Charity water through Aabani Salon. You can make a direct donation through the link below where 100% of your donation will go to fund clean water projects!
And… with every purchase of our special edition Botanical Repair Serum, you’re not only elevating your hair care routine but also actively participating in the transformative mission of Charity Water. Each purchase moves us nearer to a future where clean water is accessible to all.
For every bottle sold, $20 goes towards funding initiatives that ensure access to clean water for communities in need. Together, let’s make a difference for our planet and its people!
The American Chestnut Foundation: Restoring a Forest Legacy
Delving into our local roots, we are proud to support The American Chestnut Foundation, nestled right here in Asheville. The story of the American chestnut is one of resilience and loss. Once a dominant force in eastern U.S. forests, the American chestnut faced devastation from a deadly blight introduced from Asia. But it’s not extinct; it’s fighting to thrive again. The American Chestnut Foundation tirelessly works to develop blight-resistant strains and restore this iconic tree to its native habitat.
We have an extraordinary raffle basket featuring the exquisite works of local artisans from Mangum Pottery, Maya Gallery, and Artisans on Main, complemented by exclusive services and tons of products from Aabani Salon!
Your participation directly aids The American Chestnut Foundation, in hopes that our forests once more flourish with the resplendent presence of the majestic American chestnut.
Join us in supporting a great cause! Stop by the salon to grab your raffle ticket for just $10, or conveniently send your contribution via Venmo Friends and Family to @Brandibailey4 with the message “Earth Month Raffle”.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to make a difference.
The lucky winner will be drawn on April 30th.
Let’s make this Earth Month count. Together, we can create meaningful change for our planet and future generations.
April Deal Alert!
We have something special for you this month! Enjoy a Luxurious Botanical Repair Treatment or a Revitalizing Scalp Solutions Treatment and leave feeling fabulous with a long-lasting blowout from Cameron. It’s the perfect way to pamper yourself and step into spring feeling refreshed. Book your appointment now to experience relaxation and rejuvenation for $40
