Open Saturdays
Mino Healing was founded in 2025 from the desire to provide affordable, effective, accessible, and non-pharmaceutical treatment for chronic pain. "Mino" is a Saulteaux First Nations word meaning "Good." Mino Healing, or "Good" Healing provides services in a collaborative client/provider dynamic based upon the principles of trauma-informed and antiracist care that honours the clients goals. Mino Healing does not provide prescriptions or primary care services. Miigwetch to the traditional land holders and territories we work and live on.
