ANCIENT WISDOM
MODERN WELLNESS
CANDACE BRISCOE WELLNESS
For over two decades, my life's work has been dedicated to the intricate science of healing, a journey that began with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biotechnology and a passion for formulating skincare tailored to diverse skin conditions. This foundational understanding of biology and chemistry paved the way for a deeper exploration into holistic wellness. My path has led me to become a Clinical Yoga Therapist, a 500 E-RYT Yoga Teacher, and an Ayurvedic Yoga Specialist, integrating ancient wisdom with modern therapeutic approaches.
My commitment to helping others achieve optimal health extends across a broad spectrum of disciplines. As a Certified Personal Trainer, Kids and Prenatal Yoga Teacher, Pilates Instructor, and proficient in modalities like Barre, Aerial Yoga, Bungee, HIIT, Spin, and Kickboxing—among over 70 different certifications—I strive to offer comprehensive support for physical well-being. Complementing these practices, my licensure as a massage therapist and esthetician allows me to address healing from both internal and external perspectives, nurturing the body and skin with expert care.
Driven by a profound respect for ancestral knowledge, I co-developed the Maskihkyi Line with my partner, Ren Nikolas, who is of Lakota Sioux heritage. As a descendant of Cree/Salish peoples, with a great-grandmother who was a revered medicine woman, I've embarked on a personal quest to rediscover and honor the lost healing recipes of my ancestors. Maskihkyi is born from this mission, a harmonious blend of Indigenous traditions and contemporary science, showcasing the extraordinary healing properties of native botanicals. This endeavor is a heartfelt tribute to my grandmother and mother, aiming to restore the reverence and respect due to the medicine women of the past.
