• Massage, Craniosacral, Acupuncture, Yoga
• Nourishing cuisine

Meet Your Practitioners

A team of gifted facilitators will guide you through this transformative journey:

Irene (Irie) Rutherford | Healing Arts Practitioner: Massage , CranioSacral Therapy, Clinical Aromatherapy, Intuitive Guide, Storyteller

Your retreat founder + host, Irie creates + holds a nurturing space for self-discovery, offering insights + tools to support deep personal care. A guide for transmutation, she is a constant presence during IrieTreat, facilitating ease, growth, connection + honouring the unseen. A curated experience is Irie's specialty. Usually booked well in advance for massage + craniosacral therapy with limited new client intake, coming to our retreat is a sneaky yet welcome way to get on her client list. 

Julie (Jewels) Moraes | Acupuncturist, Herbalist & Yoga Instructor @pivotpointacupuncture

A long time friend of Irie's, Jewels is a seasoned yoga instructor with a holistic background in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Herbology, + integrative movement. She brings a deep understanding of the body's natural healing processes + a holistic approach to all of her classes. Her 25 year journey practicing yoga has brought her much joy, connection + travel as she studied with teachers in Brazil, Mexico, Sweden + Costa Rica. Through mindful movement and breathwork, Jewels empowers people to regulate their nervous system + cultivate body awareness and resilience, both on + off the mat. She is "very honoured" to be teaching yoga + offering acupuncture at IrieTreat this year, and Irie is thrilled to have her + her husband join us. Eric will be nourishing our bodies while Jewels expands us with her magical manifestation approach to living. 

Raye Anderson | Bodyworker

Raye's approach to healthcare is holistic. This means seeing the interconnectedness of the body, especially through the nervous and fascial systems, + using that framework to identify the roots of pain + dysfunction. This interconnectedness weaves through the many layers of the body, involving not just the physical body, but also the emotional, mental, energetic, wisdom, + spirit bodies. This perspective is based largely off of Traditional Indian Medicine (Ayurveda) as well as North American Indigenous Medicine, from which fascial work is founded, as a branch of the great big tree of Osteopathy. You can expect a treatment that is both logical + intuitive, drawing from the best of both Western + Eastern practices. Founder of Sentient Bodywork, Raye is 100% Irie Approved.

Optional bodywork sessions with Raye, Jewels or Irene are available in the afternoons at an additional cost of $135/hour session.
