Just breathe: a great way to use yurts

Next time you are looking at Yurts for Sale just think what you could do with a yurt! I am always blown away by the different uses people find for their yurts. This one is hyper-cool.  
NORTH COVENTRY — Barbara Kosciewicz's massage therapy business literally transports clients into a different world.The licensed massage therapist built a yurt, or circular domed Mongolian-style tent, to house her new business, Exhale Retreat.
"The structure is a traditional Mongolian hut. This is the Americanized version," Kosciewicz said of the unusual tent-like building accessed via a path through the woods behind her rural Evans Road home.Her yurt has a hardwood floor and walls of ecru-colored canvas stretched over a collapsible lattice framework. The entrance is accessed via a small wood deck, where massage clients can sit and relax pre- or post-massage.
Inside the surprisingly roomy structure is a massage table and not much else."

This yurt is being used as a massage/therapy consulting room. I think yurts make amazing spaces for this sort of therapeutic business.

Here's a great time lapse video of a yurt being put up just to show how easy it is:
