Your favourite thing to treat, and how or what you use to treat it
Forever and always, my heart will be in fertility and birth prep. Holding women as they prepare their body and mind to carry and birth their baby is a privilege I cherish! I get to remind them, and witness, that everything they need is already inside them, and often it doesn’t even involve acupuncture needles 🙂

Your go-to self-care tip you love sharing with clients
Stop outsourcing your health. Your body is a natural healer, yet so often we look outside of ourselves for the answers we already know. Trust yourself, tune in, and remember your power. Then put on ‘Get Low’ by Lil Jon and DANCE, because healing doesn’t have to be heavy!

Your favourite thing to treat, and how or what you use to treat it
Lately it has been supporting men. I feel like they want to contribute SO much, but no one is supporting them in HOW to. They’re such a missing link in the conception game. I also believe your intuition should be included in your investigation and your treatment plan.

Supporting patients at the very beginning of their fertility journey. I love being part of the process of booking their first appointments, making sure they feel welcomed, and connecting them to the right practitioners for their needs. I love making them feel supported from day one—and when they get happy news, it’s even more exciting!

Sourdough cinnamon buns
Your go-to self-care tip you love sharing with clients
True wellness and healing is a process that must involve all parts of the person—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. It also takes a deep trust in the innate intelligence of the human body to heal, supported by habits that nourish from the inside out while removing what is harmful.
Calista Powell - Pelvic Health Physiotherapist
Three words that describe you
Passionate, Driven, Loving
Your favourite thing to treat, and how or what you use to treat it
My favourite thing to treat is chronic pelvic pain. This can include endometriosis/adenomyosis, sexual pain, pain in the abdomen or pelvis, and pain with urination or bowel movements. I like to take a holistic and client-centered approach to treatment, not only addressing the local tissues but how our body processes and responds to pain. I focus on listening to a patient’s concerns and experiences, ensuring they feel heard, understood, and validated.
Your favourite sweet treat
Cinnamon bun with cream cheese icing
Your go-to self-care tip you love sharing with clients
When you have time for self-care—whether a workout, walk, TV, reading, or a nap—check in with yourself first. If you don’t feel excited or get an immediate “yes,” then find what you are feeling yes for. Too often we force what we think will help, when really we needed rest. (P.S. I really love naps.)
Megan Schafers- Lactation Consultant/Registered Nurse

Intuitive, Compassionate, Curious
Your favourite thing to treat, and how or what you use to treat it
Moms & babies! and since that is the name of my game, I feel very very lucky! Each mom and baby pair is different and complex in their own ways and that keeps things exciting. I start by listening to their stories and I become a detective to put all of the pieces together to figure out the best strategies to support them & their feeding goals.
Your favourite sweet treat
butter tarts
Your go-to self-care tip you love sharing with clients
Remembering that you can’t do it all, all the time – so take a moment to feel into what you need, what you can do and what would feel best & nourishing for you right now. Because whatever is nourishing and supportive for you, is also nourishing and supportive for your family.

Your go-to self-care tip you love sharing with clients
Optimal health and healing are found top down and inside out. Healing is not linear- It’s a balance of mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being and that balance shifts through each season of life. Be kind to yourself. And drink more water.

I love acupuncture! As a doula, our nervous systems and circadian rhythms can be thrown so out of whack so you’ll see me constantly getting body and mind work done to stay on top of my game for my clients!
