Joyce Ioannou, CAHP, RCRT™
As a small child growing up in a Middle Eastern home, I was around many natural and homemade wellness recipes.
Through my own personal health challenges from a small child with digestive concerns to an adult battling breast cancer while pregnant. The journey to finding out who I am and appreciation for natural healing started then.
Graduating from college with a background in Marketing & PR, I have always had a strong business sense at a young age. I knew that I would one day be bringing forward something amazing for others to benefit from. So, I left my corporate career and decided to master my credentials and started with a course in Clinical Aromatherapy at the Joy-Essence Aromatherapy Centre in 2020. I also became a recognized member of the Canadian Federation of Aromatherapists with the designation of CAHP (Certified Aromatherapy Health Professional). Furthering my love for the natural healing, I founded Cedars Wellness Clinic where I currently practice. “Put your health in your own hands, each drop is your therapy!”
My love for Reflexology, now that is a story that originated post chemo and radiation. Part of my own health journey means experiencing it firsthand. Pinpointing the organs and systems of the body again fascinated me and therefore lead to wanting to accomplish becoming a Certified Reflexology. I went to Footsteps School of Reflexology in Toronto where I graduated the program and am a good standing member of the Reflexology Association of Canada. It didn’t take long for me to grow some more, as in the last year, I have been given more opportunities to within RAC; one as the Ontario Northwest Chapter Representative and the other a Community Ambassador. I hope to continue to educate and share the knowledge in what I do especially in matters related to health.
When I am not working, I enjoy kayaking, dancing and listening to music! I live on the water and enjoy reading on the dock and playing with my active dog Harley! I left the busy city behind and made my life here to make memories with my children, family and friends.

Kimberly Wilcox
Growing up in rural New Brunswick and raising a family on the shores of the Washademoak Lake, I have long felt a connection to the healing power of nature. In 2015, it seemed instinctive to educate myself on the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. I enrolled in the Atlantic School of Reflexology (ASR) in Fredericton NB. Upon completing my Foot Reflexology certification in 2016, I became a member of the Reflexology Association of Canada (RAC). Continuing my education with ASR, I have added Advanced Reflexology, Hand, Face, Ear, Body, Maternity, and Chakra Reflexology skills to my pool of knowledge. Since 2015, I have also completed the Holy Fire Usui Reiki training course attaining the Master/Teacher level.
I now practice Reflexology full-time from both Rothesay and the beautiful island of Grand Manan NB. I enjoy sharing a safe, peaceful and relaxing space with people where they can escape the stresses of daily life and focus on their health & wellness.
It has long been my vision to educate others and share the holistic benefits and ability of reflexology to support the body in it’s quest for improved health and well-being.
