"We do not need to be fixed. We need to feel loved and accepted. Often the best form of support comes through physical touch, since it bypasses both mind and emotions and goes straight into the physical structure itself."
- Richard Rudd
TREATMENTS

Mobile CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
02
Mobile HOLISTIC BODY & ENERGY MASSAGE
Craniosacral therapy is a hands-on treatment that is subtle, gentle and can access deep parts of the body resulting in profound shifts. It directly works with the vagus nerve and all functions of the central nervous system.
One could expect profound relaxation, soothing of the nervous system, and a deeper sense of grounded self. This modality uses the body's innate wisdom to self-correct.
This means that the body can create habits from structural and emotional trauma throughout life, and once the practitioner brings attention to the area, the system is reminded to find the way of ease and self-correct. This is what craniosacral therapy offers that many other manual therapies do not.
For myriad reasons, the body can compensate by contracting tissue, and injury (emotional and physical) can be stored in the body for decades. Craniosacral therapy helps to release these modified patterns, restoring the body to its original organic functioning.
Cranio can successfully treat the following, and so much more:
- Anxiety and depression
- Concussion
- Chronic and acute pain
- Behavioral issues
- Digestive upset
- Trauma and emotional pain
- TMJ
- Migraines, ear infections, coordination impairments
- Sleep impairments
- Pre and post-natal ailments
Please note this practice is safe and recommended for adults and children alike.

ABOUT
Hello, my name is Alex Jane Greenwood. I am from Nova Scotia and currently reside on Vancouver Island. I have spent my adult life traveling and learning about the body and the human condition with reverence.
In 2010, I received a Bachelor of Psychology from Bishop's University. Soon after, I acquired my certification as a registered holistic nutritionist from The Canadian School of Natural Nutrition (CSNN) in Vancouver, and completed my 200-hr Akhanda Yoga Teacher Training in Costa Rica. I am currently teaching the yoga therapy for doulas program at Pacific Rim College.
In 2011, I studied massage therapy in B.C. and worked in treatment centers in B.C; New Zealand, and Australia over the years. In 2014, I received numerous Reiki trainings which revealed my intuitive channel and allowed me to begin understanding the subtle communications of the body.
I was then lead to Craniosacral therapy. After receiving the therapy for many years, I decided to study the system and offer it in my healing practice. My Craniosacral therapy studies include a mix of the Biodynamic and Upledger methods, taught by expert teacher Kari Toft.
I love learning about the body; a sauna session followed by a jump in the lake; traveling the world; a warm mug of cacao, and the embrace of a loved one, among many other things. I enjoy living simply and try to notice the moments of magic, small and large, that surround us at every moment. I have a true passion for community-based care and holistic methods of healing.
