Therapist, Teacher, Somatic Muse
“Meredith’s awareness of the body’s myriad stresses and ways of release is so deep and fine tuned, it makes me think of the Inuit’s knowledge of snow, for which they are said to have some thirty different words”

The Therapy
Trained in Shiatsu and Acupuncture in the early 90’s, Meredith teaches accelerated healing skills to Somatic therapists of all modalities to increase treatment results through more direct access to the nervous system.
A pioneer in the field of Eastern and Western integrative sciences, she has developed Neural Resonance Therapy®, a therapeutic approach to the nervous system viewed as frequency, and how that frequency is better understood and accessed through a lens of geometry.
Working within the company of cutting edge healers, physicists and cosmologists, Meredith has unearthed an understanding of geometric precision in the body that appears to mirror the information we are currently witnessing in the universe on a fractal and holographic level.
Her research in this field since 1996 has taken her to many parts of the globe, where she meets, learns and shares the work of remarkable practitioners and teachers from different modalities and cultures.
Pursuing a strong collective within the healing arts to raise awareness around the integration of alternative and allopathic practices is her life’s work.
The Practice
Meredith was raised by her mother, Lilian Jarvis, a well known, principal dancer with the National Ballet of Canada who went on to pioneer her own method of bodywork called Somatic Stretch®.
Meredith began teaching this work to ‘help out’ in their Toronto studio and then got hooked on this powerful technique that greatly increases flexibility, which gave her a forum to deeply explore the inner workings of the body. She has been teaching this method since 1986 and, alongside her mother, has created an International Training Program for those wanting to work on their own health, or for those wanting to teach this unique program to others.
Her grandfather was one of Toronto’s first masseurs, back in the day before anyone knew what ‘massage’ was. He had immigrated to Canada from Finland, and carried a lineage of healers and herbalists that he brought to his practice. Meredith grew up watching him stretch his brown body in the morning sun as he drank concoctions of herbs he gathered in his morning walks, and she learned how to survive real Finnish Sauna's from an early age...
