Hi, I’m Krystal Appleby. My journey started after years of University resisting my calling & forcing myself to stick in the logics & science world, then pendulum swinging into a dynamic & fun chapter with even more years in the waitressing industry I finally found my footing in Acupuncture & Traditional Medicine (TCM) Schooling in 2014 at Alberta College of Acupuncture & TCM where I completed my diplomas in both Acupuncture & TCM. I went on to spend 2 months interning in Hangzhou, China before moving back to Fort McMurray in 2017. After a few years of taking courses in everything from Sports Medicine, Cosmetic Acupuncture, energetics, hypnotherapy, life coaching + many more I started to settle down into my practice and connect to the foundation of the medicine… the energy, the cycles & seasons, the beauty & healing that happens when we slow down & listen to the body, when we slow down & stop using force or urgency to try and push results, to try and make life or healing happen on our terms.

The practitioner stepped deeper into letting life allow her to be the student, and since then I’ve ventured into business & supported many women find their passion, leave stagnant careers for soul careers as practitioners within my collective in Fort McMurray or move on to beautiful new cities, adventures & relationships… this is my natural passion & stage I meet people in. I started to notice people came for pain management & stayed for the inspiration or catalyst & ignited hope that their desires & dreams and standards they wanted for their life were possible … and then they went out and got them, and that’s the whole point to this little thing called life!

So, this is a new chapter after a whirlwind few years of hustling through life, of becoming an entrepreneur, mentor, finally falling in love with my own life & travelling the globe. I’m excited to settle into the peace & surrender the mountains provide while still staying connected to my most rich connections with my Northern community every month. Having spent much time with family & my dogs in CNP over the last 15 years this next shift feels like a fun new adventure offering a different style of life, a different style of treating and offering my modalities to a new, but familiar community.

I look forward to meeting you in this chapter of your journey!

Mallory is a CranioSacral and Somatic Breathwork Practitioner.

Looking for a change and feeling a strong pull to shift direction from her traditional healthcare career is when CST presented itself. It was actually on Krystal’s treatment table just before Solluna was born where this knowing began. A deep knowing is what it was from the moment she learned the words CranioSacral and it never left her side. She watched as it continued to present itself in her life and it couldn’t be ignored.

A couple years later Somatic Breathwork presented itself in the same way. Knowing she needed to facilitate crucial nervous system work on a greater scale, this would be the modality to allow for the work to continue in person 1:1, in group settings and online.

Mallory’s main focus in her professional and personal life is preventative health and optimal wellness. She is passionate about the body-mind connection and trusting that no one system ever functions alone. She feels that’s where we often get lost. The quieter we become as we shift into stillness or as we use our breath to clear and repattern, the more we are able to hear.

Liz graduated from the Edison Institute of Nutrition with First Class Honours. Liz started to get more interested in health and nutrition after discovering she was gluten intolerant and that feeling bloated, heavy and gassy after a meal wasn’t normal. She spend 3.5 years studying Holistic Nutrition, and in that time, was able to balance her weight (which was always yoyoing), balance her hormones (PMS is not normal) and get to a better place mentally. Her goal is to help clients get back to balance by helping them to discover a nutrition and lifestyle program that gives lasting results. Liz believes everyone is unique, and there is no one size fits all approach. No cookie-cutter diets here. All recommendations are built on individual needs and include nutrition, lifestyle, environmental and personal goals so that you can live your happiest, healthiest, most balanced life.

A Natural Nutritional Practitioner’s goals are to investigate imbalances and then develop a plan to bring the body back to balance by using the power of food and supplements. We concentrate on preventing poor health, reestablishing good health, and catching those imbalances in the early stages with an effective and lasting approach. We always look at the whole person and want to get to the root of your concerns rather than cover them up. We always ask, “why is this happening?”. We also take into account emotional, physical, and situational aspects. Every client is unique, and there is no “one size fits all” approach to healing. Latest available research and clinical evidence is used to develop a personalized health plan based on individual needs and goals.
