The practice of energy healing and traditional aboriginal therapies might go back thousands of years, but alternative therapies have a fairly recent history here in Winnipeg.
The Public Health Agency of Canada reports 70 per cent of Canadians use alternative therapies. Although they’ve been around for a while, their popularity among Winnipeggers has grown over the past five years — to the point where alternative healing expos are a weekend errand rather than a big news story.
In this week’s episode, Samantha talks with some practitioners, clients and store owners about why Winnipeg is the place to go on the prairies for alternative therapies.
