Meet the staff of Shambhala Wellness Denton Texas: Johanna Oosterwijk, Adrianna, Anna, Christy, Emily, Erik & Noelle.
Johanna Oosterwijk, N.D. Owner
Shambhala Wellness (940) 380-8728
Johanna started her career as an RN in the Netherlands, working in a
Community Hospital and with the Red Cross. After being diagnosed with
thyroid cancer, Johanna wanted to discover alternative treatments for these
types of disease. This led her to research alternative healing methods that
integrate the body, mind and spirit. Simultaneously, she started her own
practice, Shambhala Wellness.
Her practice has grown over the past 15 years to include different
modalities such as Reiki, Polarity, Clinical Hypnotherapy and Quantum
Biofeedback. Johanna finished her Doctor of Naturopathy degree at Trinity
Collage of Natural Health in 2008 and is currently using the latest
technologies, Quantum Biofeedback, HypnoCoaching and Wellness Coaching in
her practice.
Healing at Shambhala Wellness?
I became acquainted with Johanna many years ago and had several healing
therapy sessions with her. Her work was very impressive and helpful and as
the years went on and as destiny would have it our paths crossed again at a
time I needed more healing and inner work. Johanna is well versed in many
areas of healing and guides your inner journey as you work through extremely
difficult areas with a grace and sincerity that allows the healing to begin.
I
recommend that anyone wanting to heal or move forward in their life take
the
steps to do the work that Johanna has developed. She knows what you are
going through as she too has already walked some of the paths that you are
walking! She has created her vision of a healing center where she works
along side of others in different healing therapies such as massage. To see
that she has put into practice her own techniques and now has the dream a
reality - is truly a testimony to her ability to share this work with
others!

Erik Jackson Acupuncturist
(469) 323-5425
Invigorating Acupuncture and Qigong LLC
Erik Jackson graduated from the Texas College of Traditional Chinese
Medicine (TCTCM). He became interested in alternative medicine at an early
age after growing up with a family member who was diagnosed with a very
unusual condition that is quite difficult to treat. Over time Erik
discovered that he had an intuitive knack for reading and manipulating body
energy, which he has strengthened over the years in his Reiki training and
Qi gong study.
Erik is a disciple of martial arts with a black belt in Tang Soo Do and is
also an Eagle Scout. He chose Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to
strengthen his physiological intuition into a comprehensive modality for
treating unusual and difficult cases, including general aches, pains, and
disharmonies. Along with his training at TCTCM, Erik interned for six
months at the Environmental Health Center in Dallas where he strengthened
his understanding of Western Medicine. Erik feels that a synthesis between
Eastern and Western medicine is vital to expanding the knowledge and quality
of all healing arts and combines both approaches in his methodology.
