Her Story
Meet Annie, the heart and soul behind The Energy Medicine Clinic! Her story is a rollercoaster ride of twists and turns, showing how life's challenges can lead to incredible transformations.
Annie started her career as a massage therapist, dabbling in Reiki and Therapeutic touch. Dabbling is the correct word, because the truth was, she didn't realize the opportunity that was placed in front of her. She wasn't ready yet to do what was going to take time to unfold. So, off she went, diving headfirst into the whirlwind of sales and adventure. But then, 9/11 happened, flipping her world upside down and re-igniting what had been laying dormant for nearly ten years and she felt a deep urge to serve others more profoundly as a result of this historical event.
Heading into her subsequent career as a paramedic, Annie faced her fair share of hurdles, including some scary health issues of her own, requiring lifesaving surgery that transformed her into part robot! Yet, amidst the recent chaos of the pandemic, she found a silver lining. COVID pushed her to explore alternative healing modalities like EFT and Positive Psychology, fanning her passion for holistic wellness.
Sure, the journey wasn't all sunshine and rainbows. Annie battled PTSD, bureaucratic red tape, and skepticism from the medical establishment. But she didn't let that stop her. With the support of her tribe—fellow healers who share her belief in the power of body and soul—she built The Energy Medicine Clinic, a sanctuary for those seeking a different path to healing.
Today, Annie's mission knows no bounds. From her home base in Medicine Hat, Alberta, she attracts clients from all corners of the globe. Through group sessions, private consultations, and life-changing retreats, she empowers people to take charge of their wellness journey.
But Annie's not stopping there. She's shaking up workplace wellness, hosting funky workshops, diving deep into her studies, chasing a PhD in Natural Medicine, and training to become a Shamanic healer.
Annie also recognizes the healing power of animals, and her golden retriever, Ruby, is more than just a pup—she's a healing powerhouse! Trained up to Reiki Level 2, Ruby is often spotted at the clinic on Furrridays, spreading love and good vibes wherever she goes.
Annie's story proves that life's curveballs can still lead to something beautiful. Ready to embark on a journey to holistic wellness? While she leads, you still decide the route you take…. exploring the vibrant healing path together—where science meets spirit, and every step can be enlightening and empowering.

What is Energy Medicine?
Everything is made up of energy.
It can neither be created, nor destroyed, only changed.
Physics is revealing that human consciousness is an integrated field, not limited by the boundary of the body. This recognition allows us to look afresh at the intuitive forms of medicine that have long challenged the western mind, and build tools to integrate them in powerful new ways.
Moving beyond the materialistic view of health and dis-ease, we see the physical state of organs and tissues, as a consequence of a much wider set of processes. We exist as a multi-layered field where thought, emotion, relationship, and numerous interactions with the environment all play a role.
Your body has energy. A plant has energy. A couch has energy. Every form of energy moves at different speeds. Couches move very slowly, otherwise, every time you came home from work, your living room would be rearranged!
Your body has energy "highways" that run through it. Much like a national highway, if there are blockages on the highways, traffic can come to a standstill. If the blockage is an accident, construction or a road gets washed out in a flood, the result is the same. Your trip is delayed, or worse, it comes to a standstill. The primary issue of the accident you get stuck behind, starts leading to secondary issues. Running out of snacks, water, fuel... Needing a bathroom, kids getting unbuckled from their car seats and creating chaos in your minivan...etc! Once the blockage in the highway is cleared, the trip can be resumed.
Your body is similar in the fact if there is a blockage in the energy highway, there can be back ups in your body. High blood pressure, heart disease, aches, pains, cancer, autoimmune diseases etc. can develop where there are imbalances. You may or may not notice them right away.
Clearing the blockages in your body that develop from poor life choices, negative emotions, or trauma, can clear those energy highways and restore you back to balance and keep you healthy.
There are many types of energy medicine. At The Energy Medicine Clinic, we integrate multiplemodalities so that every client gets a customized experience and can start their ownhealing journey they way they want to!
