Our Evolution
Founded in 2021 after more than 15 years in the wellness industry, Sanative Sanctuary began as an intimate home studio — built on trust, word of mouth and deep client relationships.
In 2026, we are stepping into a new chapter.
Sanative Sanctuary is currently in the process of opening from a dedicated commercial space at 696 Sydney Road, Brunswick — alongside our partner practice, Chiron’s Hands.
Together, we are cultivating a community-held wellness centre that bridges body therapy, psychosomatic healing and embodied movement.
This transition marks not just growth — but maturation.
A deeper container.
A wider reach.
More hands supporting the work.
With my whole heart, please feel into my deep gratitude to all our clients for dedicating to their wellness, and trusting in Sanative’s offerings to support them.
Let’s continue growing together.
Sat Nam.

To create meaningful change, we must bring the unconscious to conscious.
The word Sanative is archaic and translates to “conducive to healing,” while Sanctuary reflects the body as temple — a place of safety, restoration, and remembrance. Sanative Sanctuary is the space where your body can remember its archaic capacity to heal itself through the support of complementary therapies and modalities. Your Journey is supported here.
