Forest and Nature Therapy
“There’s no WIFI in nature, but you’ll get a stronger connection”
Serving Vancouver, Burnaby and North Vancouver
Do you want more energy, better health, and greater creative inspiration?
Engaging in the regular practice of Forest Therapy can make a difference.
Also known as Forest Bathing or Shinrin Yoku, guided Forest Therapy is a mindful sensory “immersion” in nature - the space of trees, plants and beings of the forest. Deepening your connection to the natural world and yourself.
Located in Vancouver BC, Coral Mountain Wellness is a Healthcare practice that combines the science of Kinesiology (movement therapy and coaching) with Forest Bathing.

How forests heal people
Forest therapy doesn’t need to be complicated, nor does your reason for wanting to use it as a healing modality.
Maybe you’re an avid hiker recovering from surgery and want to regain balance, proprioception and strength.
Maybe you’d LIKE to be a fan of the great outdoors but don’t know where to start, or are unsure of how to properly “do” forest therapy.
Not to worry, I’ve got my Wilderness First Aid and bear spray! As a kid who grew up playing in the forest, I’d be honoured to help you on this journey. Join me on a forest therapy session and reconnect with yourself in a playful and rejuvenating way.
by special request, Wolfgang the westie might attend your forest therapy sessions!
