WHO WE ARE

Discover how Galena Wellness came to be, meet the members of our team, and learn about our partners.

Our Beginning

The story of Galena Wellness started with Manjiah Ockey . At the time the idea of a wellness clinic came about, she was a busy mother, wife, and nurse, living with ADD and ADHD, completing a business degree, starting a union, and had countless other projects and responsibilities on the go, large and small. You can imagine the stress and difficulties that came with all of that.

A friend of hers ran a clinic at the University of Calgary, and LENS played a large role in the practice, providing incredible results for students and staff dealing with the high stressors of school and life. Manjiah tried the therapy and found immediate differences in the way she was able to handle everything in her life. She experienced things like more patience with her children and the ability to focus longer and better despite having ADD and ADHD. She was even able to stop taking medication for ADD and ADHD and found that she was functioning even better without it after doing LENS Therapy.

Thinking big, Manjiah saw that LENS Therapy had the ability to provide much needed help and support for many other people in many, many different situations. She began shadowing at the University clinic and soon after completed the training needed to offer LENS Therapy as a nurse. And with that Galena Wellness was born.

It has since grown in offerings that complement LENS Therapy, including Red Light Therapy and HearthMath. Because of the effectiveness of our services and the incredible results clients are experiencing, our client base at Galena Wellness has grown in a huge way - meaning that we have been able to help many, many individuals improve the quality of their daily lives, no matter their current circumstance or struggles (mental or physical). We welcome you to join us and experience life-changing healing and improvement for yourself and your loved ones.
