OUR SERVICES

Natural Wellness

Natural health and wellness is a self-care system of natural therapies which can restore by working with the innate curative powers of the human body. It uses forms of healing which take into consideration the whole person, the mind, body, and emotions and by bringing balance and harmony. As an empowering choice, it is a holistic practice that provides guidance and education around choosing natural whole foods, nutritional supplements, physical exercise, stress management techniques, natural therapies or medicines. A natural approach to healthcare can empower the individual to move from patient to self-healer through education on improving lifestyle changes and self-care to promote wellness. Session options include:  Wellness Evaluation & Natural Health Strategy, Natural Nutrition Plans.

Counseling

Holistic Counseling is an integrative approach to psychotherapy that treats the whole person: mind, body, heart, and spirit. In its most basic form, holistic therapy addresses the mind, body, and spirit to support health and healing. It engages all layers and aspects of the individual into the therapy and mental health space.

Psychosomatic Therapy complements a holistic approach to the prevention and management of human disease based on the bilateral relationship between the mind (psyche) and body (soma).

It involves the systematic analysis of the body’s physiology in terms of its shape, size and structure, which have been determined by an individual’s genetics, environment and emotional state. Face and body analysis techniques enable practitioners to readily identify imbalances in the body. Session Options include:  Holistic Counseling (in person, or virtual), and Psychosomatic Therapy.

Registered Massage Therapy

Massage Therapy is defined as “the assessment of the soft tissue and joints of the body and the treatment and prevention of physical dysfunction and pain of the soft tissue and joints by manipulation to develop, maintain, rehabilitate or augment physical function, or relieve pain.” (CMTO, College of Massage Therapists of Ontario).  Session options include:  Targeted RMT for specific health conditions, Prenatal & Postpartum care, Lymphatic Drainage, CranioSacral Therapy, and Women's Pelvic Health Management.

Energy healing works on the principle that our physical body and life experiences are informed by the energies that exist in our energy field, and any imbalances or blocks in our energy field can contribute to emotional challenges, physical pain or illness, limiting life patterns, and other unwanted conditions in a person's life.  Session options include:  Reiki Balancing, CranioFacial Reflexology, and Natural Facials.

Energetic Healing

“Peace is a goal that can be attained only through common accord, and the means to achieve this unity for peace are twofold:  first, an immediate effort to resolve conflicts without recourse to violence - in other words, to prevent war - and second, and a long-term effort to establish a lasting peace . . . establishing peace is the work of education.  We must convince the world of the need for a universal, collective effort to build the foundation . . . It must aim to reform humanity so as to permit the inner development of human personality and to develop a more conscious vision . . .

- Dr. Maria Montessori
