Toronto researchers have partnered with tattoo artists to create “wellness tattoos” that combine micro-needling and natural ink infused with calming plant extracts. The designs are subtle and often minimalist, but they carry ingredients like lavender and chamomile that are believed to help reduce stress and anxiety.
The project is part of a wider Canadian health initiative exploring alternative methods of self-care. Early participants report both emotional and physical benefits, suggesting tattoos may one day merge fashion, identity, and mental health therapy.
