In this episode, we are joined by Koa, a Breath therapy practitioner.
Koa is a French Canadian from Montreal on a journey of self-discovery and healing. After years of full-time travel and adventure, he hit a low point upon returning from Australia. A transformative trip to El Salvador led him to dive into therapy, yoga, and breathwork, eventually training in fascia therapy under Philip Gough.
Certified as both a Fascia Therapist and Breathwork Facilitator, Koa's healing journey deepened over the past three years in Nicaragua, where he explored energy work through reiki and furthered his knowledge of fascia and breathwork.
Today, he's passionate about helping others release emotional blocks and reconnect with their inner joy and alignment.

We discuss how stress shows up in the body, the spiritual side of chronic conditions, how community healing is beneficial in recovery and more.

Dr. John Stracks is an integrative physician who specializes in chronic health conditions that haven't been helped through conventional Western medicine. He is particularly interested in helping people make the mind-body connection--the connection between what is going on in their lives and what is going on in their bodies as the way to heal chronic pain. He left his hospital practice in 2017 to co-found what is now Cormendi Health with his wife, Lisa; he now works with clients all over the globe through individual sessions, classes, and discussion groups to help them find healing.
