Our Services

Movement Therapy

Nanoway Therapy offers opportunity for physical healing through a variety of in office and outdoor activities. This includes boxing and fitness movement exercises in office.

Hiking, mountain biking and other outdoor activities such as (but not limited to) fishing, hunting, snowshoeing, medicine picking and other land based activities.

The benefits of physical movement or acknowledging the physical aspects of our overall wellbeing and health are equally important as the benefits of acknowledging the emotional, spiritual, and mental aspects of ourselves.

Releasing the physical knots helps untie the emotional ones. Strengthening the physical body helps build a sense of safety, trust and familiarity within the self. Creating more balanced, fluid movement patterns help regulate internal energy and allows it to flow smoothly.

Movement is medicine.

Cleansing

Nanoway Therapy offers a calm and safe space for cleansing and grounding. This includes the use of traditional medicines for individuals to smudge and cleanse.

Land Therapy

Utilizing the Land for therapy is about the land and all its sacred beings and how they can help us. This includes all of our relations; the animals, plants, water beings, birds, insects, trees, and more. There is a great amount of Indigenous Knowledge to be learned from the land and all of our relations.

Being on the land provides us with natural healing benefits, including nature bathing. Nature bathing exposes us to the negative ions that the land provides. Negative ions are the ones we predominantly evolved in. They provide us with better overall feelings of well-being, better cognitive function, feelings of peacefulness, mindfulness, reduced stress, reduced anxiety, and less urgency.

Nanoway Therapy utilizes land-based healing concepts in our therapy work.
