Somatic Breathwork

SBW is a journey inward. It’s an experience that allows you to express and release the pent up emotions, stressors and weight that exists in everyday life. Soma, means body and in somatic breathwork we use the breath to go deep into our bodies, to go deep into our nervous system to release those unconscious barriers and undigested emotions.

SBW is a journey inward. It’s an experience that allows you to express and release the pent up emotions, stressors and weight that exists in everyday life. Soma, means body and in somatic breathwork we use the breath to go deep into our bodies, to go deep into our nervous system to release those unconscious barriers and undigested emotions.
If you think of your body like a balloon, overtime that balloon starts to become pressurized with air and our bodies are no different. Our bodies start to become pressurized with all these daily life pressures, stressors, etc and at some point what happens when that balloon becomes too full it bursts, same thing happens with our bodies. What that looks like is hitting our breaking point, having a nervous breakdown, our bodies simply cannot handle anymore pressure coming in and we have to X that pressure. What SBW allows us to do is quite literally release air from that balloon and X the pressure so we can show up more mindfully, consciously and peacefully.

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.
