Hi, I am Shawna

I am a Block Therapy instructor and founder of Wise Modern Wellness.

I have always been drawn to holistic health practices with a history in nutrition, Reiki and mindfulness meditation. I knew someday I wanted to teach and inspire others in some form of a natural health practice, but never found the right fit. As a registered veterinary technologist, I also have a foundational belief based on science with concrete evidence and proven results driven theory.

I found Block Therapy during my quest to find relief from the debilitating pain of plantar fasciitis and bone spurs. I had given up on mainstream healthcare, having tried Physio, Cortizone injections, and even chiropractic care with no relief. I knew I had to find an answer and couldn’t suffer in pain without a solution. I was on my feet all day at my job. I was irritable, not very pleasant to be around and exhausted by the end of the day.

I started doing Block Therapy on my feet and calves just using a rolled up towel. Within 10
days I was pain-free!! I was shocked and amazed that I had gone through my whole busy day without even thinking about my feet or the pain they used to cause.

I was hooked! I ordered my Block Buddy and as I continued to explore Block Therapy and
practice more positions the benefits kept coming. My posture improved. I felt taller.. heck I was actually taller! My gait had changed. I felt more fluid and flexible. My body felt more at ease. My breathing pattern changed to naturally breathing through my belly which improved my sleep quality. Being fully rested and pain-free changed my whole attitude and outlook on life. I had found IT!!!

Block Therapy is the perfect marriage between the Wise intuition of our body and the Modern science based understanding of our intelligent connected tissue. Combined with the innate power of our breath, we can achieve a state of natural balance and overall Wellness that was always meant to be.

It is with great gratitude and pleasure that I have the honour to facilitate this unique body care modality. I invite you to experience this therapeutic, relaxing, life-changing practice.

Come be supported and encouraged in the safe space of Wise Modern Wellness.
