Ayurveda.
Find what is missing in your life. Diet and lifestyle, season and age, body and mind, heart and emotions, mentality and approach to life must all be balanced in order to live our healthiest and happiest existence.
The word “Ayurveda” translates to knowledge or science of life. This ancient healing philosophy has survived over 5000 years and is gaining devotees throughout Western society as more people learn of Ayurveda’s logical approach and philosophical truths. Our certified Ayurveda Practitioner, Peta Crogan, combines this ancient science with extensive previous training including Pathology, Medical Research, Nutrition, Fertility and Healing arts to bring you a scientifically supported, holistic and healing experience.
After an initial 60-80 minute consultation, Peta will design a health, diet and lifestyle plan to help you discover your balance through a modern take on the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda. Using time-honoured therapies, together with a sound understanding of your current needs, form the basis of the approach during your consultation.
ABOUT PETA.
I didn’t know about natural therapies when I went to university. So, I became a medical researcher in a large laboratory and later an embryologist and biochemist at an Assisted Reproduction clinic.
Eventually, through layoffs, marriage, children and an ongoing yearning, I found naturopathy. Unfortunately, though, after taking time off to have babies, when I returned the college was no longer in existence.
I attended a talk at another college and learned about Ayurveda and was instantly home.
This beautiful ancient wisdom predates the written word and includes all my passions: from the colours we wear, through connection with nature, to our food and the most beautiful philosophies.
Ayurveda incorporates medical science with all the “woo woo” that I have loved all my life. I find it amazing that 5000 years ago, ayurvedic surgeons knew that an artery had more muscle layers than a vein. There were no microscopes then – their study of the body must have been intense and precise. At the seemingly opposite end of the scale, Ayurveda incorporates crystals, colours, the choices of words you use, your appearance and facial traits, astrology and so much more.
Modern Ayurveda specialises in gut health & immunity to help you find balance within this chaotic world of ours. It is the perfect daily lifestyle support for all people.
The beauty of ayurvedic practise today is that it looks at you WITHIN your life – all the influences working on and around you are considered. I can help you unravel what has led you to where you are now while helping you return to your innate balance.
I have 25 years experience in medical research, diet and natural health. Empowering people and relieving pain brings me great satisfaction. I am passionate about providing effective, natural and sustainable solutions. Sometimes my work feels like magic!
ABOUT Rebecca.
Ayurvedic Practitioner | Yoga Teacher | Ritualist |Remedial Massage Student
“Through sacred care and steady rhythm, we return to who we’ve always been.”
Born in Perth and raised in the Wheatbelt, I spent my childhood barefoot and dreaming in the branches - held by the wild and the land, guided by the quiet rhythms of nature.
Influenced by my Anglo-Indian/Burmese heritage, I was drawn to the familiarity of daily rituals and the sacredness of care woven through Ayurveda and Yoga.
I’ve been teaching yoga since 2016 - Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Yin, and Children’s Yoga . I always teach with a style that is gentle, nurturing and grounding.
Now, as an Ayurvedic practitioner (Adv. Dip Ayurveda) and student of Remedial Massage, I offer care that honours your individuality, your innate ability to self-heal, and the ancient wisdom of living in rhythm.
I am currently completing my final semester of Remedial Massage Therapy, which I’ll begin offering from July 2025.
My intention is to support you in returning home to yourself - reclaiming your vitality, clarity, and sense of wholeness.
