Meet
Dr. Stacey

Many of us seek to find that thing we were put on this earth to do. To live a life that is in alignment with our values; full of passion, energy and love. A life that makes us happy, fulfilled and most importantly give our lives depth and meaning. That thing doesn’t have to be grand but satisfying.

Dr. Stacey Richards

BSc, ND - Naturopathic Doctor

Being an ND is a rewarding and fulfilling profession. It’s a lot of hard work but anything worth having usually is. It’s given me the ability to take my patients on a journey to live their best lives. The first steps on the journey to better mental and physical health involves getting to a certain level of self awareness. It is that self awareness that leads you to learn more about how connected you are to your environment.

There is no separation between how you choose to live your life and the results you achieve.

The connection between your mind and body is just as important as the connection between your lifestyle and your body. Oftentimes, this is the part that is enlightening to my patients because they become empowered as they learn more about themselves on all levels. My role as as teacher, coach and cheerleader helps you along this journey and is essential to your success.There are many paths to get to that place. For me, asking how I can contribute to the bigger picture of life seemed like a strange question to ask since most of my life I’ve done the opposite. Many of us are more concerned about what we can get out of life instead of what we can give.

I teach my patients anything worth having requires daily effort and health is no exception. For me many aspects of the profession didn’t come naturally. But the parts that did has been pivotal to my success. There are 2 characteristics that flowed naturally and those are empathy and commitment.

I feel my purpose is to connect and to share. And this is the foundation of SMRT health.

Patricia Caroca

Reiki Master/Teacher- Meditation Practitioner-Intuitive & Spiritual Journey Guide

Reiki is For Everyone’s Heart and Spirit!

It is with much gratitude and joy that I welcome you to my Reiki & Meditation Healing Practice here at the visionary SMRT Health clinic, My name is Patricia Caroca and in 2014, I completed my training as a Reiki Master & Teacher within the lineage of the Japanese Usui Reiki System of Healing. I am also certified in Meditation and Mindfulness, a Crystal Healer, an Intuitive and a Spiritual Journey Guide. As well, I have over 15 years of experience as a Certified Child and Youth Counsellor, offering expertise in children’s issues,emotional regulation, mental health and Family Support. I love to work with families and believe that Reiki would benefit everyone at every age! So what is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one’s “life force energy” is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. Reiki is very gentle; it can be done with light touch or no touch at all. You can lie down on the massage table or sit in a chair, whatever makes you feel at ease. It is for all abilities and ages. And if you can’t make it into the clinic, it can be delivered through distance healing. A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported very positive results! SMRT Health friends ❤ thank you for taking the time to learn about me and I welcome the opportunity to work with you! Want to learn more? Let’s chat! You can reach me for an initial 15 minute consultation, let’s see how Reiki can help you!

I am here to help you make some amazing shifts and to guide you on your journey, and for this I am grateful.

Lastly,

“May you be safe – May you be well- May you be happy…And remember there is nothing greater than LOVE”.
