"I went to see Dr. Mehta three months ago to check my energy levels, to deal holisitcally with my issues of anxiety and insomnia, to improve digestion and to help weight loss. It has been an amazing experience to have a different approach to my symptoms. She is easy to talk with and takes time to understand the causes of the issue. Now, I am proud to say after seeing her I feel so much better. I have lost weight, I have more energy and I sleep better. Alexina has helped me to achieve equilibrium with my mental, physical and emotional states. I truly recommend her to anyone who is looking to inprove their overall well being and be more happy!

"My guardian angels were looking out for me when through divine synchronicity I found Dr. Mehta.. I am a health professional trained in Classic Western Medicine. With a laundry list of issues of complex medical issues ranging from PTSD to Autoimmune Disease I sought help from many traditional physicians and psychologists. Not only did their treatment not help me, I was becoming increasingly more ill.
On the advice of my sister, she recommended I see a naturopath. I figured I had nothing to lose and at least a naturopath wouldn't give me any more toxic medication. With my PTSD, traditional counselling methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and potent psychoactive drugs for depression and anxiety were not working and I was dealing with severe side effects.
Alexina explained to me what I had become to intuit, the body and each and every cell has memory and until you can clear the negative, painful energies out you cannot progress into a state of "light" and healing. Through our hard work together I have been steadily able to cut back on my medications and am happy to report that I am very nearly at the point of not needing them! My autoimmune disease is under good control as well. I also see an autoimmune disease specialist and Alexina is the perfect complement to that traditional therapy and my Specialist has been very pleased with the help and support Alexina is giving me that he cannot provide in his practice.
Alexina is a very rare healer. I had lost hope that I could be helped and if she can help me, she can help anyone. All you have to do is show up with courage, humility and openness and she will lift you to your highest potential that you perhaps never even dreamed was possible.

I am so blessed to have met Dr. Alexina Mehta. She appeared in my life at a time when I was stressed beyond belief and was almost at my witt’s end. I was in my third year of nursing school: not sleeping, spiritually not connected, emotionally drained and overall just tired.
She has helped me heal from within on so many different occasions. There have been times where I just don’t feel ‘right’ and an hour with Dr. Alexina makes me feel alive once again inside and connected to my spirit. She guides me in the direction that my spirit feels it needs to go. She has the ability to spark the healer within.
Even when I was travelling half way around the world in Australia, she helped me by answering emails when I was feeling so alone. I was going through a break-up at the time, and some days I felt I had no where else to turn. I tried everything.
Dr. Alexina’s simple and encouraging words during this time helped me through some of the hardest times in my life. She has encouraged me to continue finding a spiritual balance as well as an overall holisitc balance. I feel so safe and calm in her presence. She has helped me with health problems I was never able to talk comfortably about with other doctors. She just makes me feel like everything is going to be okay. I love how she offers simple and natural solutions.
With the help of Dr. Alexina, I have healed in so many ways. My heart and spirit feel more alive and my purpose more clear. Thank you Dr. Alexina. You have helped me in so many more ways than you know – you have changed my life!

Dr. Alexina Mehta has brought good health not only physically but mentally to our entire family. The practice of Naturopathic Medicine helps to get at the “root cause” of what is going on and doesn’t try to mask whatever is taking place with a quick fix. We as a family appreciate the care and thoughtful analysis of what is going on both on the “inside and outside” to help choose a path of care that makes sense for our families ultimate well being. We can’t imagine our daily maintenance program not incorporating naturopathic medicine to help us stay strong and healthy for a lifetime. This proactive approach lends to a quality life.

"Discovering Dr. Mehta has quite literally changed my life. She has opened my eyes to new possibilities and awakened a desire to learn more about myself and my connection with the world around me. The time I spend with her is always fascinating and goes by all too quickly. She is a superb guide, coach, mentor and healer and I thank the Universe for her daily."
- Anne Cole, Vancouver
Alexina brought me a great breathe of emotional relief. When I first went to see her I was overwhelmed by change in my life and felt persistent anxiety. My stress manifested itself in a variety of ways: restless sleep, poor eating habits, and what felt like depression at the time. She listened in the way a dear friend would and examined my situation comprehensively as other doctors and counselors could not. Her suggestions and treatment provided me with a new focus, a "light," that allowed me to better understand the root causes of my difficulties. It is reassuring to know I can continue to work with her as I find my way in the world.

I have had the good fortune of experiencing Alexina in a variety of roles. Whether she is facilitating an energy workshop for business owners, guiding a group meditation or consulting someone in her naturopathic practice Alexina shows compassion and intelligence. Her educational background is solid. Her approach is multi-faceted. And her results are excellent. I believe she is a gifted healer and a true leader. I do not hesitate to recommend Alexina to anyone seeking improved health and exceptional, holistic care.

""I met Alexina at a time when I had lost much hope. For three years, I had dealt with a chronic health issue that was increasingly depressing me and weakening my body. I had felt that I had tried everything the world of alternative medicine had to offer, with inconsistent results – a hit and miss. I had felt that there was nothing more I could do to improve my health. The message I had received from the medical profession was the same: “you have this condition and nothing can be done about it. You have to suffer and learn to manage the pain.” I recall saying to Alexina during our first meeting, “I feel like I’ve tried everything and there is nothing else I can do”. Her response was simple, “there is lots we can do”. And from there, our journey together to better health started.
Not only is Alexina a dedicated health-provider and a compassionate listener, she is also a great teacher. The fact that she is a healer is a given. The greatest gift she offers me over and over again is teaching me the tools I need to tap into my own power and strength. I am not a passive person who is spoon-fed magical remedies; my relationship to her is not one of dependence or co-dependence. Instead, she is a guide, a coach and in that vein, she expects me to be a full participant in my own healing. I do the personal work and in that process she helps to empower myself and is a witness to it.
Her ability to get to the source of health issues and to help identify past traumas is uncanny. She is so well tuned to her knowing, I am constantly in awe. I am very grateful that Alexina is such an inspiration to me!

"Alexina is like a breathe of fresh air, and in every breathe there is new life. Finding somone to assist you on your path - even when you are unsure of where you want to go can be tricky. With Alexina, I learned and remembered many ancient tools and wisdoms that I put into practice each and every day. Now I consciously dream my world into being in every breathe and I also help others to do the same. I am grateful for all that Alexina is and all that she offers in all of her practices of healing, growth and expansion. My two favorites are her dance yoga class - which is oh so fun, and her energy medicine practices - talk about groovy stuff that anyone can do!"
-Melanie Rudolph, PhD
"Alexina is an amazing healer, teacher, guide and doctor. She is insightful, loving and helps one get to the truth. I am grateful to have had experienced healing and guidance from her. I was gifted with illumination sessions that I found very powerful and cleansing. She helps one become empowered, leading one to get what they want in life."
-Tamara Stewart
"During her years of Medical Education I have known Alexina as a Pilates teacher and now as a Naturopathic Doctor. Always I've witnessed her positive, conscientious, compassionate, joyous nature. She brings to her varied and practical work, a sincere and most trustworthy presence. Namaste. Thank you Alexina for your dedication."
-Kath Pool
"Alexina has made an instrumental difference in my life these past few months. I now prioritise balance and wellness so that I can achieve more, whereas before seeing Alexina I had a core belief that there always had to be a trade off. I now come from a place of strength rather than fear in relationships and in the workplace which has paid back in many interesting and rewarding ways. I am now contemplating how I share this gift and pay it forward so that others too can enjoy the benefits!"
-J.F., Vancouver, BC
I am so grateful to have found Alexina. To describe her as a naturopathic doctor doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of who she is and what she does. She is a truly gifted healer and wise woman.
She is able to relate to me on a professional/corporate level, (speak my language) but is also able to bring such an incredible depth and spirituality to our sessions. Each session gives me exactly what I need – whether it be counselling, acupuncture, ritual or energy healing. She seems to instinctively know what is called for in the moment.
She is exactly what I need to help me maintain balance and find meaning in the corporate world while also helping to facilitate my personal development and spiritual growth.
-Tammy Vigue, Vancouver
Dr. Mehta delivers a 'whole' sense of well being, dealing with your mind, body, and spirit. She does not just focus on the symptoms, but addresses the underlying causes. I enjoy a sense of relief knowing that I have found Dr. Mehta.
