What is a Chakra?
The chakras are the 7 wheels or centers of energy within the human body that help to regulate all physiological processes.
Blocked energy within or between any of the centers, or chakras, can result in mental or physical illness.
At CHAKRA Vancouver, we believe that health and wellness can only be achieved when the interventions are holistic and address all parts of the body, mind and spirit, including the chakra system.

All About Chakras
Medical science is uncovering the measurable benefits of yoga & meditation.
As you are likely aware, mindfulness & yoga, meditation & neuroscience, are increasingly popular and desirable approaches to a successful life. Now, studies on magnetic fields of the heart & brain are revealing new approaches to mind body health and wellness. Consider, that electromagnetic physics has driven dramatic advances in technology, yet health services have not fully leveraged this area for
optimal performance and health.
Understanding the subtler aspects of the electromagnetic body has long been a part of the ancient chakra system. The chakras are also aligned with key endocrine and neurological anatomical correlates, psychological, energetic, and spirit correlates. At CHAKRA, in addition to multi-disciplinary evidence-based services, we also offer possibilities for optimal performance by combining the cutting edge research
and ancient science related to the chakra system, with the
evidence-based practice of medical science.
Our team is a collection of highly educated medical professionals with advanced training and personal practice in mindfulness, yoga, and the high performance lifestyle. With international and national certification well-grounded in western science, we offer you our unique blend of well-established medical treatment for health conditions, with a personalized approach based both in ancient chakra systems and cutting edge research to bring your health and wellness to a truly vibrant level.
