ellness on Whyte is a healing sanctuary in the heart of south Edmonton offering an eclectic mixture of alternative

modalities that facilitate healing of body, mind, and soul in a safe and soothing environment.

Owner of Wellness on Whyte, Geha Gonthier, is rich with experience both in the arenas of life and holistic wellness. Geha survived her first cardiac arrest at the tender age of 7, and has spent a lifetime living internationally, studying under influential masters and teachers and accumulating 37 years of practice as an holistic health professional, specializing in acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Shaped by her personal challenges, worldly adventures, and deep thirst for real answers, Geha arrived at an understanding that “healing is not a straight path of predetermined prescriptions, but a dynamic, individual journey involving body, mind, and spirit.” This understanding is the foundation for her business.

3 years young, Wellness on Whyte challenges the conventional understanding of “spa” as it encompasses the address of wellness and beauty under one roof. With a strong European influence, it is the services rendered that make this spa so unique. At Wellness on Whyte, you can expect to recognize your own inner sanctuary by the integration of massage with aromatherapy, cupping and Ayurveda, acupuncture with vibrational healing, reflexology with pedicures and other such exclusive East-meets-West blends of invigorating protocols.

Further, Wellness on Whyte is the only spa in all of Edmonton with an active Flower Essences practitioner. Revolutionary and transformative, Flower Essences are vibrational remedies taken by mouth that create cellular change, promoting permanent healing on emotional and spiritual levels. Each flower essence has a unique vibrational pattern that precisely treats its energetic opponent in humans – if we are treating anger, for

example, then the appropriate flower will hold a pattern of calm, thereby offsetting the tendency towards anger.

Wellness on Whyte also offers blissful organic facials in tandem with a skincare line that reflects the 5 elements of vital energy in accordance with Traditional Chinese Medicine.

What’s more, at Wellness on Whyte, you will discover the opportunity to attend regular workshops on pertinent health-related topics, consult with an in-house Doula (birth companion for expectant moms) or transformational Holistic Health Coach.

No matter the calling of your body, mind or soul, it will be heard and hallowed at Wellness on Whyte, your urban sanctuary.
