Mina recently moved to Courtenay from Edmonton, but is originally from Poland. She has a Bachelor degree in Physiotherapy from Warsaw, and a 2200h Massage Therapy diploma from ACMT in Edmonton. She is a RAPID Neurofascial Reset Specialist and is also in the process of completing a Reiki Practitioner certification.
Mina has a deep interest in all things holistic health. Throughout the years of working with people as a practitioner, she has realized that her clients were not just the physical symptoms they came in with. Their internal and external life had a huge impact on their general wellbeing. This sparked an interest in expanding her knowledge into the world of somatic therapies, energy work and nervous system regulation. During her sessions Mina combines different modalities between the physical to address any pain lingering in the body through RAPID NFR and fascial release, to nervous system regulation through guided meditation and relaxation techniques, and energy work. She believes that addressing all three of these aspects leads to true healing.
Mina also believes that every person has the capacity to heal themselves and she just provides assistance along the way. Her goal is to help every person she works with feel empowered and sovereign in their body. The modern world encourages a disconnect from our bodies and Mina’s goal is to help her clients regain that connection and sense of safety within ourselves.
She also offers group workshops that combine guided meditation, affirmation work and sound bath elements to further the connection to our bodies.
In her personal life Mina is a tinkerer and creator. She has an interest in herbalism and flower essences, enjoys homesteading practices and creating all sorts of things ranging from homemade sauerkraut to cold process soap, energy clearing sprays and jewelry. Her main reason for moving to Comox Valley was wanting to be closer to nature, so if you have any secret trails or natural gems to share, she’s all ears!
