My approach to therapeutic care is informed by my 17 year personal journey of recovery from chronic pain; including auto-immune conditions, spinal injury and arthritis. I weave together holistic nutrition, medical qi-gong, somatic practices, functional movement and eco-spirituality to awaken the regenerative capacities living within your bones, muscles, tissues, mind and heart.

For the past 10 years, it has been my honour to support newborns to elders in their holistic wellness. Through hands-on physical manipulation, postural assessment, rehabilitative exercises and a compassionate approach to chronic disease management, I help to ease your suffering while empowering you with accessible health education and deeply personalized care. My work is philosophically rooted in loving-kindness and embodied dignity.
