SOPHIA ZOE has been interested in holistic, complementary therapies since she was 15 years old. At that age, she began reading voraciously anything having to do with health and healing. By age 17, she was under the regular care of a Herbalist and Chiropractor. Sophia was inspired by the depth of knowledge these men had, and in how very helpful they were to their patients.
Sophia did not formally pursue an education in the healing arts because there was no awareness of any such schooling. Instead, she went to McMaster University and studied the performing arts. She received two B.A.s - one in Music and one in Drama. Towards the end of her Drama degree, Sophia discovered a community of healers and she found herself skipping classes to go to healing workshops!
Even before graduation, Sophia put her degrees to work, teaching piano in the Hamilton schools, and drama at a recreation centre. She did some acting for fun and profit. All the while, most evenings and weekends, Sophia found herself at workshops on natural healing. Not having a television for eight years was a blessing; Sophia memorized books about nutrition, anatomy, herbs, vitamins and healing.
In November 1995, a car accident left Sophia with many injuries and not a good prognosis. Sophia put herself in the care of some of her healer colleagues and watched in amazement as her conditions all improved. It was a profound learning experience to personally witness herself go from "destroyed" to "dynamic." That was the turning point from Piano Teacher to Energy Therapist. It wasn't done overnight. It took thousands of hours of practice, thousands of hours of class time and dozens of excellent teachers to help Sophia develop into the holistic health practitioner she is today.
Sophia is not a doctor, naturopath, scientist or psychologist. She has studied with all of the aforementioned and has attained certification in many energetic and holistic healing techniques. (See Therapeutic Services)
Sophia's passion for holistic health care is remarkable. Her commitment to her clients and her compassion towards them are sure contributors to the positive results they enjoy. Sophia would be happy to help you and your family, too.
