Lana Kraft - RMT

Welcome to the nurturing realm of holistic healing! I am Lana Marie, a passionate and dedicated Registered Massage Therapist specializing in John Barnes Myofascial Release and the integration of energy work for optimal well-being.

With a profound belief in the body's innate capacity to heal itself, I embarked on a journey to explore the intricate relationship between the physical, emotional, and energetic aspects of wellness. Trained extensively in John Barnes Myofascial Release, a gentle yet highly effective technique that addresses the fascial system's profound influence on overall health, I bring a unique blend of therapeutic modalities to facilitate profound healing experiences for my clients.

My approach is rooted in the understanding that true healing encompasses more than just the physical body. By incorporating energy work into my practice, I tap into the body's subtle energy systems to promote balance, release energetic blockages, and restore vitality on a deep level. Drawing from modalities such as Reiki, craniosacral therapy, and intuitive touch, I create a safe and sacred space where clients can reconnect with their inner wisdom and experience profound transformation.

Whether you're seeking relief from chronic pain, recovering from injury, or simply longing for a sense of harmony and alignment in your life, I am here to support you on your journey to wellness. Each session is tailored to your unique needs, ensuring a personalized and deeply restorative experience that nurtures your body, mind, and spirit.

I am deeply honored to be a guide on your path to holistic healing, and I look forward to accompanying you as you rediscover the joy of vibrant health and vitality. Remember, investing in yourself is the greatest act of self-care.

If you have any questions please text or call 306-713-0626.

I look forward to connecting with you.

Kelsey Parker - BISW, RSW

My name is Kelsey Parker, and I am currently living in Saskatoon and working with clients all over Saskatchewan. My background is in social work and energy healing modalities. I have been working in the helping profession for over a decade and have direct experience in talk therapy, more specific mental health and addictions. 

I have a deep passion for helping others on their own healing journey’s. I have experienced first hand the amazing shifts that happen when guided with the right modalities to start healing. I believe everyone’s journey is unique and everyone has their own inner guidance to follow.  

I have chosen to immerse myself into the holistic side of therapy (mind, body and spirit), and energy work because I have seen the profound changes that can occur. These changes are endless but can include results being a deep understanding of self, our emotions, feelings of joy, connecting to the present moment, and uncovering who you really are. 

I truly believe the healing work is unlearning what isn’t ours and reclaiming who we have always been. This work is about coming home to who you are at your core. Navigating this can feel confusing but with the right guidance it is possible to feel like you again.  

Feel free to reach out for any questions. 

I do offer 15-minute free consultations that are booked through email (kelseyparker.therapy@gmail.com). 

Looking forward to connecting, 

Kelsey
