What People Are Saying
"Her quiet and attentive demeanour is so welcoming and comforting"
I have done group sessions for back care with Rhonda as well as private sessions to deal with the various aches and pains surrounding injuries and self-abuse that I have encountered in the past.
Firstly intrigued, and later amazed at the depth of effort that Rhonda puts into her practice to create the best possible outcome for her patients!! The personalized sessions are second to none.
I realized the money she was actually saving me by teaching me the skills and abilities to heal and improve my body at home, on my own!!! The reduction in Chiro and RMT bills far outweigh any costs associated with Rhonda’s sessions!!
The effort that Rhonda takes to empower each of her patients is something that I had never experienced before and I feel that a very special lady has crossed my path, blessing me with her skills and presence!!
If you want to empower yourself to help your body be it’s own healer in any of the areas that are listed on her website, I don’t think that you will ever find a better coach and guide to equip you with all that is necessary to do so!!
Thank You Rhonda for all that you are, and inevitably all that you will become…to me and all of the people who you will guide and teach on your path.
Thank You.

"I felt a few sessions with her did more for me than years of chiropractor, massage, physio and acupuncture"
My experience with Rhonda was so amazing. She worked with my body to heal back pain and shoulder pain. It really was a much more of an in-depth, all encompassing experience that has left me with the tools to keep healing myself. I recommend Rhonda's healing hands to anyone, especially those frustrated with ongoing ailments that seem unfixable. She is gentle and intuitive providing the safest space to find release in nagging injuries, allowing your body to start healing. Claire: West Kelowna, BC
"Currently dealing with bone cancer"
I wanted something that would help me feel less stuck. Rhonda's process is focused, calm, slow, targeted to each joint and she never pushes you passed anything that feels painful. With each movement and breathing into your body, it slowly opens up and everything feels fluid, less stuck and more open. I recommend working with Rhonda no matter what your issue is as she will help you and your body be better.

"New ways to cope with chronic pain."
My goal was to develop a program I could use at home to deal with chronic pain (Fibromyalgia & Insomnia). Rhonda helped me to do this and not only gave me some new tools, for dealing with symptoms, but also offered further insight into some of the root causes. As an astute observer and listener Rhonda meets the person where they are in their healing journey treating the person as a whole. She combines her extensive experience, knowledge, training and skill with astute perception and sensitively to make an accurate assessment of the problem. Drawing upon her many resources Rhonda armed me with additional supports, such as making recordings which aid my continued work at home. Over all my work with Rhonda has deepened my healing journey and given me new ways to cope with chronic pain.

"The pain was debilitating"
I had injured my lower back, the pain was debilitating. Rhonda helped me more than any physio place I have ever gone to. Rhonda not only got me back to standing and walking, she redirected the pain. I normally would have been bed ridden for 5-7 days eating pain killers like smarties. If you have an injury please do it for yourself, try Rhonda. I am so grateful that I did.

If you are in pain and what you're doing isn't working,
I would ask you "Why wouldn't you give Rhonda a try?"
I have taken several online classes with Rhonda, focusing on back care, neck and shoulders.
Yoga Therapy was new to me and Rhonda went beyond my expectations. She has an intuitive way of knowing what you need. I experienced relief from my lower back/hip pain plus my neck and shoulders. I also now have the tools to use for maintenance or if the issues show up again.

About Rhonda B
As a trauma and anxiety survivor, Rhonda has always been drawn to the sacredness of healing. This pursuit began in early 2000's by exploring alternatives with an open heart and mind. Upon discovering brief experiences of peace and calm with yoga she took a 200hr certification program to gain a deeper understanding of grief and trauma, with no intention to teach.
In 2013 she underwent surgery for severe endometriosis as a life long sufferer. A few weeks later, she was involved in a motor vehicle accident, no longer able to work or practice yoga due to the injuries. That is when a deeper depression started to steep within. The pain and medications were stifling. Doctors prepared her for this "new" way of living. She refused to accept the prognosis because it was in drastic contrast to her being. A deeper pursuit for alternatives started an incredible exploration of profound experiences.
Referred to a Pain Clinic recognized for achieving the highest standards in safety and clinical care, implementing evidence-based pain and function recovery by applying the best science, knowledge and technology from Medicine, Nutrition, Brain health and Movement, she was introduced to Yoga Therapy. Unlike mainstream yoga where you're assumed to have a relatively healthy agile body, Yoga Therapy assumes you have restrictions and caters to that.
During the same time, Rhonda tried reiki which was good but short lived. At last, she attended a Pranic (energy) Healing clinic that is a highly advanced method of energy healing. The persistent headache caused from whiplash was healed within one session. From that point she spent years pursuing Healing Certifications with a Diploma in Yoga Therapy, Pranic Healing plus many other Modalities in order to help others on their wellness path.
Sitting in ceremony, connecting with her Native Culture, (never taught in younger years) she was gifted the name "Thunderbird Woman". This honor has rooted her into a much more grounded understanding of life energy and spirit.
Yoga Therapy definitions found online:“Yoga therapy is that facet of the ancient science of Yoga that focuses on health and wellness at all levels of the person: physical, psychological, and spiritual. Yoga therapy focuses on the path of Yoga as a healing journey that brings balance to the body and mind through an experiential understanding of the primary intention of Yoga: awakening of Spirit, our essential nature. Joseph LePage, M.A., Integrative Yoga Therapy (U.S.A.)”“Yoga therapy adapts the practice of Yoga to the needs of people with specific or persistent health problems not usually addressed in a group class.Larry Payne, Ph.D. Samata Yoga Center (U.S.A.)”
In offering"Wellness Couture" an opportunity is provided to gain a deeper understanding of the unique restrictions in the body (injuries), the mind (emotions), to guide people toward their specific goal.
