Pure Roots Health - Naturopathic Medicine & Breathwork Therapy

My first experience of breathwork was with Jan and she was so inviting, and calm that I was relaxed and grateful even before the actual session began! I have done a few in person group breathwork sessions with Jan since and they were all amazing experiences!!! Always, so peaceful that the experience of just being in your body was a natural progression during each session! Jan's own way of being and as a facilitator is safe and inspires trusting in the process! I highly recommend anyone to have a conversation, with Jan, for all that she offers, that may assist you moving forward in your journey!

I have had the opportunity to experience Jan as a Breathwork Facilitator, Naturopathic Doctor and Bowen Therapist. Her knowledge, energetics and intuition support a comprehensive holistic approach that gently leads towards a path of healing from within. I appreciate every appointment and experience I have under her guidance. I feel listened to and appreciate her ability to work with compassion and empathy.

Dr.Jan is a highly intuitive and experienced breathwork facilitator who knows how to meet you where you are at. Never pushing you too far, but reminding you of your own power and what you are capable of, should you wish to go deeper, or soar higher. 😇 She creates a safe container that immediately makes me feel at home time and time again. So appreciative to have gotten the experience to learn from her, and would highly recommend Dr.Jan, no matter where you are on your breath journey.

Jan is a wonderfully intuitive breathworker who radiates warmth and compassion. I love doing breathwork sessions with her because she embodies the wisdom she has gained from doing many years of her own work. I attended Jan's online breathwork classes, and I really appreciated how the suggestions and insights she offered throughout the hour session deepened my experience and delivered results beyond my expectations. Her approach is gentler than some more 'hard-core' breathworkers, and that was exactly what I needed. I experienced my body in powerful new ways that brought me home to myself. If you're wanting to experience the therapeutic effects of a thorough breathwork session, I recommend you give her a chance!

I have been working with Jan for three years now, primarily doing breathwork and bowen therapy. Our sessions also include discussion, reflection, and anchoring, depending on what is helpful. Jan is a supportive and insightful presence for me, and I trust her entirely. She is a gifted breathwork facilitator and emotional guide. In her company, I have done a great deal of personal work, growing awareness of my thoughts and body reactions. When she was in Vancouver, I saw her regularly in person; now that she has relocated, we have moved our sessions online. I recommend her highly, particularly if you have interest in breathwork and want to be held most gently and wisely. She is a powerful person to call into your life!

Dr. Jan does a phenomenal job of making you feel connected and grounded in a safe and inclusive environment.
Her breathwork practice is unique, and you can tell that she truly puts her heart into her healing.
I highly recommend going to Dr. Jan if you are looking for a loving and spiritual experience. :)

Dr. Jan Sutherland is a very wise, dedicated, gentle, intuitive practitioner of the medical arts. She diligently cares for the whole being, not just the body. I left her space feeling remarkably restored and with a genuine hope that I have the power and ability to heal and restore my optimum health, with her gentle care and guidance to help me gain the knowledge and support I was lacking. The breathwork is my favorite! Thank you Dr. Jan💗

Wow!!

Dr. Jan Sutherland's breathwork guidance has been incredibly potent and transformative for me!!
In just my first few sessions with her, I was not only moving deep rooted emotion in unconditional grace - I was PROFOUNDLY connecting with Source. With Dr. Jan's nurturing support, I experience sensations and realizations that I didn't know was possible sober! 🤯 As a result, I've integrated a new sense of well-being, self-love and confidence.

Dr. Jan has been my go-to physician for YEARS when it comes advice and remedies to help my body help itself.

I would highly recommend Pure Roots to anyone desiring service of the mind, body and soul. 🙏

Dr. Jan Sutherland's breathwork classes helped me cope during very dark times of my life. Every session, she creates an amazing experience with clear and gentle instructions, aroma therapy, powerful music playlists and healing touch. This combination enabled me to go deeper in a meditative state and come out of a breathwork session refreshed with new ideas and strength to move forward. After each session, I felt more competent to face my challenges. Thank you, Jan!

Dr. Jan has lead me though profound healing. Her gentle demeanor and calm wisdom allow for safety and trust. Healing is messy but Dr Jan creates a container that allows me to let go of everything, without fear, judgment or concern. A breath of fresh air. I am honored to have been shown the path to inner peace. Forever grateful.

I joined in on a special rate day for a breathe work session with Dr. Sutherland. This experience was very pleasant and an enjoyable time of relaxation and healing.

I agree that breathe work should play a part in self-care routines. I recommend breathe work with Dr. Sutherland to anyone who needs to take some time to themselves to focus on guided relaxation.

Thank you Janice!

I love the breathwork sessions with Jan. She has a true gift for curating a transformative experience. Her sessions always feel safe, grounded and yet offer an amazing opportunity for breakthroughs and deep release. Thank you for sharing this precious gift with us! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to go deeper into their relationship with themselves.

Jan helped me work through physical pain and helped me integrate some past trauma that I was unaware I had and how it was showing up in my life. Her practice is thorough and concise. She is a true professional, and is also incredibly kind and compassionate. She has a mission to serve others and does so authentically. She gets results through progress, I couldn't recommend her more.

Dr. Jan has been an amazing resource as well as great friend for a number of years now. I have always been able to count on her knowledge, expertise and caring. I’ve done a number of treatments including breathwork and would not hesitate for a moment to recommend her to anyone!

Jan introduced me to breathwork and it changed my life! It was the first time in 40 years I was able to drop out of my mind and into my body. She was so awesome in helping me out on the journey of discovery of who I truly am! She is an amazing therapist/counsellor too. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Jan is an incredible breathwork guide that I cannot recommend highly enough! Seriously. She always seems to know exactly what I need to hear or try in order to guide my journey in a direction that serves me and opens me up to the deepest parts of myself. You don't find a guide like this everyday- and I have tried. Jan is really someone special!

Dr. Jan is not only a skilled and knowledgable Naturopath, she is an empathic and intuitive healer who guided my family with compassion, herbal remedies, breathwork, excellent and effective therapy, and grace through a period of intense turmoil. I credit her with both my physical strength and with the smiles that are now on the faces of all 3 of my children. Very highly recommended.

Dr. Janice is a kind and compassionate ND, her breathwork sessions are a cathartic, intimate and soothing experience. She takes the time to listen to her patients and understand thier needs. Go see her, you won't be disappointed!

Jan’s intuitive and gentle approach created such a safe and trusting environment that allowed me to go deeper in my healing. She's helped me developed a deeper sense of well-being and self-love. Highly recommend!

Jan is a wonderful naturopath who truly listens and helps to find the root cause of an issue, providing remedies for holistic healing. I would highly recommended and she is greatly missed in lower mainland. Thanks Jan! I'm looking forward to your next visit back.
