  • For an acupuncture treatment, Lisa Davicioni is  truly incredible. She brings deep intuition and wisdom into every session. 

  • Kitoki Inn is a truly special and very stylish retreat getaway on Bowen Island. If you're looking for beauty, nature, and renewal, book ahead as Kitoki Inn books up well in advance. 

  • Join Breathworks is one of North America's only dedicated breathwork studios, offering highly certified, science-backed breathwork facilitation experiences, to support nervous system regulation, health, and community connection. 

  • If you're looking for an Ayurvedic treatment, this is the place to go. Parvinder at Isis offers incredible Ayurvedic head massages, and healing treatments. 

  • Nectar is a BC must try. A short ferry from Vancouver, Nectar offers regular weekend yoga and wellness retreats, as well as longer retreat immersions, often facilitated by renowned teachers. A stunning location, they also offer a hot/cold experience via their sister business, Mist Thermal Sanctuary. 

  • One of the only places that offers a completely private sauna experience, Circle Wellness on Granville Island blends the ancient art of a nordic spa with a very modern and tech forward experience. Must try. 

  • The very first to bring Lucia Light Therapy to North America, Sky Studio Lucia, run by Tina Averback, is a local gem, offering private and group Light Therapy sessions that weave in other modalities such as Astrology and Bodywork. A high integrity space, where you can really trust the level of facilitation provided. 

  • Conscious Lab is renowned for bringing together the local wellness and entrepreneur community via their monthly long-table dinners, networking events, and the many incredible events and retreats hosted at this space. Check their calendar! 

  • Wildflower Beauty Bar is our go to for holistic facials, including their renowned 'psychic facial'. Facials include gua sha, facial massage, a face reading, light therapy, and of course, an intuitive reading if desired. 

  • Mara's one of Vancouver's most sought after yoga teachers. You can try her weekly yoga classes and ceremonies at One Yoga on Main Street. She hosts at annual retreat at the iconic Hollyhock nearby on Cortes Island. 

  • Angela is an incredible somatic therapist and sound healer who offers the most beautiful, and transformative, private & group Horse Drum soundbath ceremonies. We highly recommend everything Angela offers!  

  • Kal Prakashini

    Based in India and Vancouver, Kal Prakashini is an international master, teaching Tantra, Kundalini, and the Yoga of Sound. If you have the opportunity to explore a workshop with Prakashini Ji, don't hesitate. She teaches at her two Ashrams, guests at many places internationally, and most often at Casa Copal when she's in Vancouver. She's amazing. 

  • Faye is one of the most gifted sound healers we've ever experienced. She offers weekly sound baths around Vancouver at ZenDen and Sensorium, as well as private sound healing sessions. Highly recommend. 

  • We have two words for you: Psychic Facial. Gretchen's intuitive facials are simply the best. Her holistic facials include gua sha, facial massage, red light, and a face reading, and she offers you space to receive guidance from the Higher Realms. This is a must-try on our list. 

  • If you're in Vancouver, don't hesitate to book a private Nervous System calibration session with the renowned Dr. Sukhi. In one session, he'll read your system, and offer a full treatment, to help you understand the state of your nervous system, and how to bring your body, mind, and soul into full alignment. So good! 

  • Andi is a gifted intuitive, Tarot reader, and Astrologer who actually helped us get clear on our direction with Head + Heart. She brings so much love to each of her readings. Highly recommend a private Reading with Andi! 

  • Monica Krake

    Monica's community breathwork sessions sell out quickly. She offers a down-to-earth yet transformative experience, offering tuning forks, and lots of supportive hands-on touch. This community is always a great vibe.
