Soon everyone can be pampered on the Plaza — and we mean everyone. Sojourn Spa, an accessibility-first space, will open in January 2024 inside the new Cascade Hotel (4600 Wornall Rd., KCMO).

What does it mean to be accessibility-first?

When we say “accessibility-first,” we mean the space was designed from conception to be ADA-compliant. City Editor Charmaine spoke with co-owner Ashley McClellan who said she wanted to provide accessible wellness for everyone.

“I have a background in health. Accessibility is a focus in that world,” said McClellan. She’s a former hospital CEO and medical executive. “So it was important to me to make sure this space was accessible.”
