About the Owner

Andrea Ochitwa

Reiki Practitioner / Teacher

Meditation Teacher

Healing Touch Apprentice

After spending 20 years as a first responder, Andrea's direction changed. Having always been interested in complimentary therapies and finding a balance between allopathic and naturopathic medicines, she redefined her role in helping others, by adding Reiki, Meditation, and Healing Touch to her portfolio.

In 2019, she obtained her Master-level certification in Reiki at Mount Royal University, under the instruction and guidance of Reiki Master-Teacher Diana Lynn Mayorga. In 2021, she certified in Medical Reiki under Raven Keyes' instruction and guidance; in 2022, she Certified as an Animal Reiki Practitioner in the Let Animals Lead® method by Kathleen Prasad. Most recently, she received her 300-hour Meditation Teacher certificate through YogaMCC (Yoga Meditation Centre Calgary) and is working towards full certification in Healing Touch Therapy. 

Andrea's personal experience with an occupational stress injury has brought her focus in her wellness practice to help others navigate their way to relaxation, in order to help reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. She is also interested in the benefits of adding these modalities to those undergoing treatment for Cancers. Andrea is equally passionate about working with animals, and has had beautiful successes while working with horses, cats, and dogs. When she is not working with clients, Andrea keeps herself busy by facilitating Equine Assisted Learning workshops, expressing her creativity through photography & creating Reiki-infused bracelets, and spending time with her husband and their animals.
