The Journey
Empowering Women Through Holistic Healing for Mind, Body, and Soul
It’s been a long time coming, but Holistic Med Group is finally here—built for women, by women. If you’ve followed our journey, you’ve witnessed the tremendous evolution that’s taken place over the past two years. We began as a humble, one-woman initiative, determined to escape the rigidity of traditional clinics and create a therapeutic oasis where women could feel genuinely supported and understood.
Our founder, Ana Vera, is a lifelong student, teacher, and champion of holistic health. With a background as a Certified Athletic Therapist, a Registered Massage Therapist, and a Yoga Teacher, Ana’s passion is to treat the whole person, not just isolated symptoms. Through her focus on the lymphatic system, Ana discovered an innovative way to address complications that extend beyond muscle tension, helping those with chronic inflammation, post-operative needs, and even oncology-related challenges.
The Journey of Growth & Expansion
Ana’s devotion to empowering women began at 19, when she first fell in love with the energy of gym settings and motivating women to embrace movement. Over the next seven years, she pursued an undergraduate degree in Athletic Therapy and became a certified Athletic Therapist in Canada. She furthered her expertise by earning a Master’s in Athletic Training from the University of South Florida and gaining her Massage Therapy certification.
During her early career, Ana focused on athletic environments—crafting injury prevention plans and rehabilitation programs for high-level sports teams. She traveled widely across North America, serving as head athletic therapist for various Canadian and Ontario-based teams. However, a pivotal moment occurred in 2019, when she shifted from sports therapy to a Pelvic Floor clinic, emphasizing women’s health needs—particularly digestion, chronic pain, and stress management.
A Vision for Women’s Health
This transformative experience revealed how crucial women-centered care truly is. Ana saw firsthand how stress, inflammation, and hormonal imbalances profoundly affect women’s daily lives. Motivated to bridge the gap in women’s health services, she created Holistic Med Group—a place that combines evidence-based therapies with a holistic perspective, ensuring women receive the comprehensive care they deserve.
Today, Holistic Med Group boasts a growing, all-women team and an ever-expanding community of mindful, loving, and charismatic women from Oakville and beyond. We continue to cultivate an environment where you and your best friend can find the resources and support needed for your healing journey. We remain committed to ongoing education, traveling worldwide to learn from top experts, and bringing the latest, most effective approaches to you.
