-
Sujok therapy
SuJok therapy is based on the concept that hands ("Su") and feet ("Jok") are microcosms of the body, containing points which correspond to every organ and system. Healing is achieved through both acupuncture and magnets applied to these points.
-
TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE
Acupuncture involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body to promote natural healing and balance energy flow (qi). Often used to address pain management, fertility, hormone balance, digestive support, stress and anxiety.
-
Cupping therapy
Using cups as suction devices, breaking up congestion by drawing stagnant blood and qi to the surface of the skin, promoting better circulation and nutrient delivery to tissues. Often used to address: muscle relief, reduce inflammation and detoxify the lymphatic system.
Meet Alyx, Registered Acupuncturist & SuJok Therapist.
Alyx’s background stems from connection; connection not only to other people, but to self and to this universe. Her education, while wavering in its technical requirements, has always been focused around exactly that.
Alyx’s calling is to continue working with self, with the force of nature and with others, supporting connection and healing through the use of multiple modalities and learnings.
WORKING WITH YOU, IN FLUX AND FLOW
Much of our modern healing world is built on the promise of ‘getting rid of pain’. We’ve adapted to being busy and to thus seeking the solutions that work with our busy lifestyle. However, pain is our body’s way of signalling that something is out of balance. We work together to better understand the signs, symptoms and cause of imbalance— and assist in bringing the body back to a state of homeostasis. We heal the root.
How do we do this? Everybody and every-body heals in its own unique way. This unique way is also in a state of constant transformation, which is why my personal approach includes not one modality, but many.
As a little girl, my dad would always say to me “health is wealth”…and it wasn’t until I was actually dealing with disease that I truly realized the weight of this statement.
