Our Space
We would like to acknowledge with 'uy' shqwaluwun (gratitude; in heart and mind) the traditional unceded territory of the Snuneymuxw Hwulmuhw (Snuneymuxw First Nation) who have, for thousands of years, cared for this xe' xe' tumuxw (sacred land). We raise our hands and say, huy tseep 'ewulh siiem (thank you respected ones) for the privilege to live, love, learn, work and share knowledge on this beautiful territory. A siem.
Our home based clinic is nestled on the edge of mature forest, amidst our family operated nut orchard and cut flower farm. We are steps away from this region’s last remaining old growth trees and protected sandstone carved petroglyphs.
Our treatment space is tranquil, inviting and supportive of your health journey.
We are excited to welcome you to experience your own healing potential.
About Me
Sonja Zupanec, PKT (certified Ayurvedic Panchakarma Technician)
For the last 16 years, my partner and I have nourished our souls by establishing a specialty cut flower and nut farm while also raising three children on the island. I’ve spent most of my adult life working in the field of environmental science and land use planning to support our farming passion. I have been an avid, lifelong student of yoga, the sister science to Ayurveda.
After a turn in my own well being several years ago, I was dismayed by the options the western health care system was prescribing to me. I sought the guidance of an Ayurvedic Practitioner to help me take charge of my health. By incorporating several simple and elegant Ayurvedic recommendations in my diet, lifestyle and body therapies, I experienced dramatic health improvements. As a result I was inspired to study with the Kerala Academy to become a certified Ayurvedic Panchakarma Technician (PKT) and established a professional practice in our community.
Once per month I conduct free or by donation treatments in our community to ensure that anyone can experience their own profound healing potential.
I look forward to helping you explore the range of complimentary and sustainable health care options available through Ayurveda!
Sonja
