Herbal Wellness Consultations at Elan


Time to check back in as there's so many things happening at our office in Bowness!  This month we have two new practitioners joining us~ Melanie offering Herbal Wellness Consultations, and Angela offering Acupuncture and Acutonics services (information on Angela coming soon!).  

Here's information on Melanie and Full Bloom Herbals!  Melanie is available for 
appointments on Thursdays.  

Full Bloom Herbals will support and guide you in choosing your healing path.  These consultations are empowering, putting you in the lead and the heart of your healing. 

During our consultation process you can expect to have a detailed conversation about your concerns. Past medical history, habits of daily living, family health, stress and emotional well-being will all be explored. From this conversation and evaluation we will work together to create a plan that meets your needs. This plan will often include nutritional changes, herbal supports, meditation/reflections, and rest/relaxation strategies. Above all this is your plan, it must work for you, you get to be in the drivers seat the whole time.

$100 plus GST for an initial 75 minute consultation.
You will receive a detailed written plan after our session.

Follow up appointments are 30 minutes and the cost is $50 plus GST
Cost of herbal supports ranges from $80 - $100 per month.

The Dispensary

After our consultation and planning I will formulate herbals supports to suit your particular needs and constitution. Suggested herbals may include tea, tincture, capsule and/or topical applications. In most cases you will be able to pick up your herbs the following week at the clinic. 

 By keeping a dispensary in this fashion I am able to make the freshest herbal supports with love and intention to meet your unique needs. This also helps to keep costs as low as possible for you.

Outdoor Inspiration

We went to Banff this past weekend. Absolutely one of the best things about living so close to the mountains, and also something we rarely take advantage of.  Beautiful mountains, fresh air, excellent sushi (don't we all go to Banff for sushi?), healing, mineral hot springs. Sounds lovely, yes? While I was there, I checked my email and coincidentally, had one commenting on the benefits of being outside (kids and adults) for 2-3 hours per day. Yes, 2-3 hours a day.  I don't think commuting in the car counts.   Are you outside this often? Are your kids? So many benefits of being outside: Fresh air Better sleep More exercise (unless that's lying on a beach, or in a hammock) Ability to explore our natural world-trees, bugs, animals, mud... More neurosensory stimulation (like waking on uneven surfaces, balancing on logs, new textures) Family time Unplugged time Did I find enough reasons without looking up any research articles?  I know the resea

Clay and The 12 Senses

This past weekend was the 4th Annual Waldorf Gateways Conference, with keynote speaker, Dr. Adam Blanning.  Dr Blanning is trained in family practice medicine and in anthroposophically extended medicine.  I enjoyed learning about Health and Well-Being for Children and Families, and especially enjoyed my two workshops.   The clay...wonderful for our 12 senses!  Hopefully that's making you think a little, are you familiar with our 12 senses?  The first 5 are easy... vision, smell, taste, hearing, and touch.  And then?   Imagine working with clay-first you will see the clay, and then reach out and touch it.  You may bring it up to your nose to smell, but hopefully you don't stick your tongue out to taste it.  The clay may feel cold, or start to warm up as you work it in your hands.  You probably won't hear too much from the clay, except the quiet of the room, or other voices.  If you hear voices, you may hear words being spoken; you may have thoughts about those words
