“Life heals itself, given the proper conditions.”
~Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, Founder, Osteopathy
My work is grounded in the understanding that true healing embraces the whole being—mind, body, emotions, and spirit. Health and vitality are shaped not only by physical factors such as nutrition, cellular function, and environmental exposures, but also by the subtle energetic imprints of life experiences that influence emotional and mental well-being. The body’s systems are deeply interconnected, with the blood, often referred to as “The River of Life,” reflecting the balance—or imbalance—throughout the body. By supporting the body’s natural rhythms and fostering alignment across physical, emotional, and energetic levels, this approach creates space for healing, heightened awareness, and practical skills to navigate life with clarity and presence.
As balance and equanimity are gradually restored, inner strength flourishes, movement becomes more fluid, emotions more integrated, vitality more sustained, and daily rhythms more attuned. Clients develop the awareness and tools to respond to life with ease, opening the path to fully embracing life from a place of inner harmony and empowered presence.
Homeopathy
Homeopathy treats the individual as a whole, addressing health and vitality through the interconnectedness of all life while honouring the unique needs of each person. Guided by the principle of “Like cures Like,” minute doses of natural substances are used to support the body’s innate capacity to self-correct and restore balance. Homeopathic medicines embody the energetic essence of substances in a form and vibratory frequency that your body understands best and is able to receive, acting as a catalyst - a gentle nudge that awakens your body’s innate ability to self-correct and restore balance.
Live Cell Microscopy
Using a dark field microscope, Live Cell Microscopy examines active, living cells in a single drop of blood, magnified over 1,000 times. This provides a dynamic snapshot of the body’s internal environment, including cellular health, nutritional status, immune function, and oxidative stress levels. While not a diagnostic tool, it offers valuable insights that guide informed lifestyle and dietary choices to support overall vitality.
“Health is not merely of the body…
it is the natural expression of the body, mind and soul when they are in rhythm.”
~Dr. Randolph Stone, Founder of Polarity Therapy
Blueprint Resonance - Polarity Life Coach
Integrates verbal and somatic approaches to support clients, whether through hands-on sessions, verbal guidance, or a combination of both. Supports individuals navigating challenges with self-regulation, including anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances, chronic pain, or difficult emotional patterns. This approach helps clients process trauma, builds resilience, engage fully in their healing, and develop awareness and practical skills to navigate life with clarity, balance, and confidence.
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST)
A gentle yet profound healing modality that allows the body to unfold and express its story. Practitioners tune into subtle rhythms and micro-movements, identifying patterns shaped by life experiences, and support the system in releasing held tensions. This creates space for the body to realign with its inherent intelligence and natural expression. Through non-intrusive, hands-on work, balance and calm are restored to the nervous system, while promoting healing in areas affected by depletion, shock, stagnation, stress, or injury. BCST is safe for all ages, including pregnancy, newborns, and sensitive or frail individuals, offering a deeply nurturing and effective form of healing.
Polarity Therapy
A holistic approach blending ancient wisdom and modern understanding of energy as the vital force within the body. It honours the interconnectedness of mind, emotions, body, and spirit, recognizing that pain, stress, and dis-ease reflect energetic imbalances. Restoring healthy flow between the two polarities (Yin and Yang) brings balance and harmony to the entire system, supporting overall vitality, emotional equilibrium, and well-being.
“The forces that are present at the beginning are also present throughout life.
There is an intelligence deep within the system that is managing all that and has from the very start.”
~Jaap van der Wal, MD, PhD
What Clients Say…
“After a motor vehicle accident, it was odd that there seemed to be less room in my mouth for my tongue. I spoke of this to a few healthcare practitioners including my dentist, and from these professionals, I felt a sense of incredulity and no solution. In only a few sessions with Joan, I noticed that my tongue fit more comfortably in my mouth. I was constantly holding my jaw and folding my tongue in my mouth which kept me tense. Now I found that I could relax my jaw more.” ~Anonymous
“I have been privileged to work with Joan in person and over Zoom this past year. Her level of skill, her presence, and her capacity to hold the container face-to-face and as well as “through the ethers” is amazing. Joan reflected love, compassion, and, unconditional acceptance to me until I was able to feel it in myself. I am grateful.” ~R.H., North Carolina
“Joan is a skilled & intuitive practitioner. She provides a safe and supportive environment where deep trust can be established. Our work together has helped me process emotional trauma experienced decades ago.”
~A.B., British Columbia
“I experience a letting go from the inside during a session, a release of unnecessary tension in the body. Yet it goes beyond relaxing. The session cultivates an awareness of my body. As one thing is uncovered and rectified, then after a while it reveals another that requires even more subtlety to notice. I often walk away with a feeling of peace, centeredness and newfound resilience.” ~S.F., British Columbia
“Joan’s grounded, steady and attentive presence gives me a sense of safety. I feel she listens to me from a place of unconditional acceptance and this helps me to be more receptive and open to what I’m feeling in my body. With kindness and compassion, Joan uses touch therapy and verbal cues to direct my awareness of tender, edgy, hidden places in my body that have needed attention, care and a voice for much of my life. Her expertise lies in her skillful ability to support me to be with the gentle unraveling of painful pent up energies in my body whose origins have been forgotten or stored until I felt safe enough to experience them. ~K.S., Wyoming
