Tara grew up in Ontario for most of her life, a fourth-generation Canadian of Scottish, Irish and Slavic descent. Since childhood, she’s had a profound curiosity about nature, giving her the foundation to appreciate all of life’s creatures and to understand how the body, psyche, environment and spirit work together to either disrupt or promote energy flow.

Tara studied Arts Management at the University of Toronto which prompted an over-10-year career in corporate policy-advocacy for nonprofits, charities and arts organizations. While supporting Canadian communities through advocacy, she also pursued her studies in Holy Fire Reiki, Shamanic Journeying, Mindfulness and Yin Yoga, leading to a deep vocational understanding of the energetic anatomy of the body - including chakras, the aura, meridian points and interconnectedness of the breath, fascia and movement.

For the last 5 years, Tara has been a Reiki Teacher, passing down a longstanding tradition of informed energy healing - how energy moves through the body, and how anyone can access the gentle and powerful energy within themselves to promote personal wellbeing and empowerment.

As a client practitioner, her technique utilizes Reiki, mindfulness coaching, and knowledge of energetic and anatomical systems to unlock dense energy and promote the flow of life-force energy.

She believes that everyone deserves to experience more peace and relaxation in daily life. She supports people who seek more balance in their work, hobbies and family life, or are going through life’s transitions and transformations.

Outside of the practice room, Tara is still creating art, pursuing learning music, playing tennis, going on hikes, and spending her time with the people she loves. You can always catch her with a book on psychology, spirituality or creativity.

Kelsey was born and raised in Ottawa and has always had an interest for the anatomy and mechanics of the human body. She knew from a young age that she was passionate about helping people and wanted to pursue a career in manual therapy.

After completing high school, Kelsey went on to pursue her undergraduate degree in Kinesiology at Trent University and Ontario Tech. Kelsey graduated with a Bachelor of Health Sciences in Kinesiology with distinct honours.

This sparked an interest in Kelsey as she enrolled in the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy in Hamilton, Ont.

At the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy, Kelsey studied and practiced classical osteopathy and applied anatomy for 4 years. Over these years, Kelsey developed a strong understanding of the principles of osteopathy in which she is able to demonstrate on the table.
