Lite Mind Body was born from feeling helpless in our experience fighting cancer and infertility. We believe that while Western Medicine is widely known, to truly heal, there must be more balance between:
- preventative care vs. corrective care
- mental health vs. physical health
- pharmaceutical drugs vs. natural remedies
It’s through seeking this balance that we found our way to holistic healthcare techniques from around the world. Often documented for thousands of years, we made it our mission to share these healing practices more broadly in Toronto.
By gathering top healers, showcasing international techniques, and providing you with the knowledge of how to heal all 3 branches of your self (mind, body, and spirit), solving ONLY for symptoms will be a thing of the past.

Can you provide an overview of your practice in Abhyanga Massage and Ayurveda and what inspired you to specialize in this particular area of healing or therapy?
Mamta, an Ayurveda Practitioner at Lite Mind Body Clinic explains the overview of her practice in Abhyanga Massage and Ayurveda and what inspired her to specialize in this particular area of healing: “Abhyanga is one of the many body treatments described in Ayurveda for wellness and healing. It involves anointing and massaging the body and head with special oils. It is utilized as a daily skin/hair/self-care practice, and also clinically for the treatment of neuro-muscular-skeletal disorders. Being born and growing up in a culture that utilized such practices, plus food, lifestyle, and eco-spirituality, for health and well-being, Mamta decided to dive into her roots and study this ancient knowledge system to understand the human condition and apply the wisdom and many therapeutic practices in the modern world.”
Each modality represents a unique approach to well-being. How do you integrate Dragon Reiki, Homeopathy, and Acupuncture into your practice to address the diverse needs of your clients?
Nyla, a Homeopathic Practitioner at Lite Mind Body Clinic explains how Homeopathy is integrated into her practice to address the diverse needs of her clients: “Homeopathy is a holistic yet unique system of medicine. It is based on the principle that substances can harm or heal based on their level of exposure to an organism. Because homeopathic remedies are highly diluted, they remain completely safe, gentle, and non-addictive. We are all unique individuals. Our life experiences, including our experiences of illnesses, are also unique. Homeopathy addresses the uniqueness and individuality of our experiences. It aims to address the root cause. Therefore, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Our clients could be dealing with a physical ailment like pain after injury or surgery, migraine, or allergies, colds/flu, or digestive upsets; or they could be dealing with emotional concerns such as anxiety, fears/phobias, anger, grief, heartbreak, all of these (and more) can be addressed holistically and safely through homeopathy.”
Sachiyo, Dragon Reiki Master at Lite Mind Body Clinic, and how Dragon Reiki is integrated into her practice to address the diverse needs of her clients: “She begins each session with an assessment of her client’s needs to understand their physical, emotional, and spiritual concerns. This will help tailor her Reiki practice. Then she proceeds to integrate Reiki techniques such as Reiki hand positions, symbols, or energy healing methods into her sessions by using her intuition and expertise to customize Reiki treatments for each client. This can be done by adjusting the intensity, duration, and focus of the session based on their individual needs and preferences. She makes sure to take the time to educate her clients about Reiki and its benefits. This helps them understand what to expect from the sessions and encourages active participation in their healing process.
Jessica, an Acupuncturist at Lite Mind Body Clinic explains how Acupuncture is integrated into her practice to address the diverse needs of her clients: “She views acupuncture as a powerful means of communication between her clients’ bodies and minds, helping guide them to a place of inner harmony and balance. Acupuncture as a modality serves as a conduit to heal the body/mind connection and enables individuals to be able to tap into the sometimes neglected parts of themselves. This holistic approach can help aid muscle recovery, address emotional imbalances, support digestion, and beyond. It also provides a drug-free alternative or adjunct to their conventional healthcare plan, offering individuals a versatile tool to enhance their overall well-being.”
Tuina offers distinct benefits. How do you customize your sessions or treatments to meet the individual needs and goals of each client?
Sarah, Registered Holistic Practitioner at Lite Mind Body Clinic on how Tuina offers distinct benefits and how she customizes her treatments to meet the individual needs and goals of each client: “At the start of each session, she asks clients to explain their reasons for coming in and then asks questions about their history, the nature of their issue, what makes it better or worse, and physically examine the areas of concern. While she is trained in full-body massage, she also uses specialized techniques for specific cases. She then discusses with clients what they want to focus on, ensuring a balanced approach that targets their main concern while addressing overall well-being. Before starting the treatment, she will explain her treatment plan, clarifying that it may encompass areas seemingly unrelated to their primary complaint making it clear that she may focus on other areas to provide holistic care.”

Given your expertise in Bioenergetic Therapy, can you provide examples or stories of clients who have experienced significant improvements or transformations through your treatments or therapies?
Cherie, Bioenergetic Therapy Practitioner at Lite Mind Body shares examples of stories of her clients who have experienced significant improvements/transformation through her treatments:
Client Story 1: There was a client who initially came to her for anxiety. After getting her out of fight-flight through bioenergetic therapy, they continued to work on her chakras one by one. Upon balancing her sacral chakra, she no longer experienced the PMS symptoms that she had in the last 20 years.
Client Story 2: Another client had lost all motivation in life since the passing of her father due to the struggles of the pandemic. She also wanted to explore the reasons behind her consistent weight gain despite a decrease in appetite. After three sessions, she started to let go of the blockages that got in her way of having fun, went to concerts again, and lost ten pounds.
As a practitioner, how do you ensure a supportive and nurturing environment for your clients during their sessions or treatments, and what role does client empowerment play in their healing journey?
Our practitioners are passionate about healing and helping their clients. To ensure a supportive and nurturing environment for our clients, we make sure to see the person as a whole and practice great listening skills while combining our expertise and experience in our modalities to ensure we promote healing and relaxation. Not only do our practitioners come readily prepared to every appointment but they are all very personable and empower clients to be proactive about their health and wellbeing while also building strong rapport with them. Our clinic as a whole seeks balance in finding holistic healthcare techniques from around the world and thus it is our mission to share these healing practices more broadly here in Toronto.
