True Roots Holistics
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to embarking on a healthier journey. My name is Shantel, the driving spirit behind True Roots Holistics. Alongside the joys of motherhood with my two children, I've dedicated myself as a Registered Massage Therapist and Bowen Therapist, advocating holistic health and well-being.
I added additional skills at the renowned Vicars School of Massage Therapy, where I nurtured a passion for integrating therapeutic practices with patient education. I'm a deep believer in continuous learning to help clients and with new techniques that allow me to expedite their healing. A philosophy that continues to guide my practice.
My mission is straightforward: to provide relief from discomfort, enhance mobility, and ensure that my clients are informed and empowered. With the right knowledge and care, I believe everyone can reach their pinnacle of health and well-being.
I specialize in a variety of therapeutic modalities, from traditional massage to the advanced techniques of Bowen Therapy and Rapid NFR.
Beyond the walls of my treatment space, I find balance in running in the great outdoors or finding a health related book to expand my knowledge and enjoying quality time outdoors with friends and family.
At True Roots Holistics, I look forward to guiding you through your healing process, where your path to well-being begins.

Bowen Therapy
Bowen Therapy which is known as homeopathy for the body is a gentle yet profound technique that is used to treat both chronic and acute conditions. Using a holistic hands on approach, Bowen Therapy addresses the body as a whole, while focusing on specific moves that stimulate the autonomic nervous system (ANS).
The moves have a rehabilitative response, as the brain has the original blueprint before compensation and injury.
By stimulating the ANS this promotes neuromuscular re-patterning that helps the body to rebalance . Due to emotional, physical trauma and stress overload the body develops stuck nerve patterns over time.
This can be remedied with the Bowen Technique.
Conditions Treated by Bowen Therapy include but not limited to:
Frozen Shoulder
Stress, Anxiety
TMJD
Digestive Problems
Sport Injuries
Pelvic Conditions
Pre and Post Surgery
and so much more.

Rapid NeuroFascial Reset
Rapid NFR is a movement based therapeutic technique that addresses the nervous system’s role in alleviating pain, tension, and restrictions in muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia.
Every session is a combination of examination and treatment. Painful areas are treated by combining precise tension with very specific patient movements.
It may be uncomfortable during the movement phase of the treatment. This occurs as the neurological system is being stimulated to restore normal function and eliminate pain.
Clients choose Rapid because of the “rapid” response to treatment. Treating the body at the neurological level stimulates a reprogramming of the tissue. Tight muscles relax and range of motion is restored and pain is eliminated. This helps individuals quickly get back to normal life.
