FAQ
What you call your body is a living, breathing extension of billions of years of an incredible life process.
​
Every cell in your body has an innate bio-intelligence. Just like your embryo didn't need an instruction manual to grow into you, your body knows how to heal itself.
But in this modern world, your innate vitality isn't something you're taught to follow. In fact, often our lifestyles hamper its flow. We're all over-worked, under-cared for, feeling sick, and ​conventional routes of treatment have left us feeling frustrated or hopeless.
We're here to help you re-align with your innate vitality. We guide you in unravelling the years of cultural conditioning and personal history that stand between you and your vibrancy.
