Nikki has been a massage practitioner for 10+ years, graduating from CDI College in 2010 with 2490 hours of schooling. She cultivates her treatments by blending relaxation, and therapeutic with some deep tissue work to provide the best outcomes for her clients. Hot stone therapy can also be added to promote a deeper relaxation and myofascial release within the body.

When Nikki became a reiki master, she started to focus on looking at the body as a whole – Body, Mind, Spirit – and understanding that physical pain in the body is not always caused by physical stress. It can be mental and emotional stress built up in the body as well. When we realize just how integrated each of these aspects are within ourselves, only then does she believe we can truly dig deep into our healing to live a longer, fuller, more peaceful life.

When Nikki isn’t working with her clients, she tends to spend her free time with friends, getting lost in nature, meditating or curling up with a good book/movie with her cat sleeping in her lap.

Being a high school exchange student and living a continent away from her family, Viktoriya faced some challenges of the medical system and found her calling in nursing career. After spending Christmas at the hospital surrounded by wonderful nurses, Viktoriya knew that she wanted not only to save patients’ lives but help them achieve the ultimate wellness that incorporates mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of life.

John Pynn is a Registered Psychologist who has a lot of experience working with adults and children/youth with a wide variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, relationships challenges, parenting, increasing overall-wellness, and other mental health related concerns. He believes all positive change begins with a first step that puts things in motion and is honoured to help clients with that first step. His therapeutic orientation is an integration of cognitive behavioural, solution focussed, and family therapies.

John’s integrative therapeutic approach comes from a history of working in both public and private mental health contexts over the years and a desire to provide a best fit for each client. John enjoys providing a comfortable and supportive space to explore where you are at without judgement, discuss what change you would like to see, and then provide guidance in how to get there. Therapy can not only help to alleviate mental health concerns but can be used as a proactive measure to increase one’s resilience and quality of life.

When thinking about longevity, the word resilience comes to mind for John from Michael Unger. Resilience is not just overcoming adversity, but the ability to navigate and negotiate for resources (psychological, social, physical, cultural) to sustain our wellbeing. This helps us to move from being reactive to stress and life’s events to being proactive, having the resources and skills to thrive.

In his down time John enjoys time with family, walking his dog Daisy, hiking somewhere with a mountain or lake destination, cooking a Jambalaya dish for family, working out in the gym, or having a relaxing coQee on the deck with his wife (in the summer!).

A long life is one thing, but a long and healthy life is what we all really want. In Canada, life expectancy has increased from 68 years in 1950 to 83 years of age in 2022. Yet chronic illnesses such as cancer and heart disease have become increasingly problematic. Chronic disease is the plague of the 21st century but research clearly shows that chronic disease is largely preventable through better nutrition and lifestyle.

Dr. Ludo Brunel has always been fascinated by science especially as it pertains to nutrition and health and longevity. He followed this fascination by receiving his degree in Human Nutrition from McGill University. After that, he went on to pursue his studies in Naturopathic Medicine at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto, Ontario, and graduated in 2004.

Dr. Brunel first became interested in medicine when he faced health challenges himself as a teenager. Diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, he went from a vibrant young man to someone who could barely function. Through better nutrition, dietary supplementation and hard work he was able to regain his health and live a fulfilling life.

Since the moment he earned his title of Naturopathic Doctor, he has had a passion and drive to make patients feel better. His goals and desires are to meet and exceed the needs of his patients, and to provide them with the best tools available to get them to their goals of optimal health and wellness. Time and time again, patients state that the care that Dr. Brunel had provided was the most helpful they have received.

Dr. Brunel has been fortunate in many ways. He was fortunate to work within one of the largest preventative health programs ever offered in Canada for more than a decade. He helped thousands of patients improve their health by focusing on preventative health and wellness. He feels so blessed to have been able to be part of that incredible experience, as it helped him gain a remarkable amount of knowledge and expertise. In addition to this, he also had the privilege to assist in the formulation of several dietary vitamins and supplements for some of the most advanced supplement companies in Canada.

His enthusiasm for naturopathic medicine is exemplified when you read his articles and hear him speaking in public. One of his primary roles as a doctor is to inform and educate. Dr. Brunel has written a multitude of articles and has given hundreds of presentations on varied topics specifically to help others obtain the tools they need to take better care of themselves.

Dr. Brunel sees patients for general naturopathic medicine. Being a father, he loves to work with all families and children. His special areas of interest include insomnia, depression, anxiety, heart disease, diabetes, autoimmune disease, gastrointestinal health, allergies, men’s health and aging wellness, and sports medicine.

Dr. Brunel utilizes several modes of therapy with his patients, including dietary supplementation, intravenous therapy and prolotherapy - a form of injection therapy particularly effective for musculoskeletal pain and arthritis.

When Dr. Brunel is not doctoring his patients, writing articles, or presenting to small groups of people, he is spending quality time with his three children. Originally from Montreal, but his heart drove him to Alberta for his love of the mountains, especially for hiking, skiing and fishing.

Dr. Brunel is excited to start your health and wellness journey with you.
