Julia graduated from the Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy in 1990. Over the years she has studied many different assessment and hands-on techniques which she has integrated into her practice. Most recently she received her Postural Alignment Specialist diploma from the Egoscue Institute. Julia’s massage treatment is largely informed by her postural findings – an effective combination of therapies which she enjoys very much. She will work with you to balance your therapeutic needs with your need to unwind and recalibrate, exploring and enhancing your mind-body connection. She loves to work with all ages, all kinds of people, and she’s very grateful to have learned so much from a widely diverse clientele over many years of practice.

Dr. Ashley Wincikaby is a graduate of the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Ashley’s main focus is on female care (pregnancy & postpartum), adolescent athletic rehabilitation (concussion), and the promotion of functional ability in older ages for independent living (fall prevention & neurological disorder management). Her treatment styles include chiropractic adjustments/mobilizations, both manual and tool-assisted soft tissue therapy, and performance-focused rehabilitation. With an evidence-based, holistic approach to practice, Ashley understands that diagnosing an issue starts with recognizing the mind-body connection. Her approach to care focuses on acknowledging the core aspects of each person’s well being; emotionally, mentally & physically. This structure of care allows patients to seek treatment while bettering their overall health through education and awareness. 

Outside of the office, Ashley’s passions include health & nutrition, cooking, hiking and trail running, Dragon Boat paddling, kickboxing, and overall health and fitness. Her dedication to her education is evident in her past and future accolades as she is currently enrolled in Nanaimo’s Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, for Holistic Nutrition.
