Women aren’t just “small men.” 🛑

For decades, medical research used the male body as the default template—leaving massive blind spots in how women’s bodies, pleasure, and neurodivergent brains were studied, understood, and treated.

When your anatomy and lived experience don't fit an outdated textbook, it’s easy to feel dismissed or disconnected from your own body. You deserve care that actually sees the whole picture.

At The Urban Alchemist, our Women’s Health & Embodied Counselling coach Jordhana Love offers somatic, holistic support designed specifically for women’s bodies, pleasure, and nervous systems.

If you thought chiropractic adjustments were just for people, you’re wrong!!! 🤯🤯🤯

Molly has been seeing a doggy chiropractor for the past couple of years. As a 12-year-old dog, having regular adjustments has made a massive improvement to her quality of life.

Things that make other senior dogs shaky in their legs, like long walks and jumping up into the car so she can go to work or on some weekend adventure are easy for Molly.

But bad news… Her chiropractor died recently 😭😭😭 (no kidding, this guy was a living legend and we miss him so much!) and after two months of no chiropractic treatment, she’s really slowed down. And yesterday her groomer told me she was grumpy and did not enjoy being touched.

Yeah. Cos now everything hurts.

As a people chiropractor, I love seeing the difference that a regular adjustment makes to human bodies. But it is just wild to see how quickly and dramatically animals respond. (It’s because they’re not scrolling on their phones all day and eating Maccas.)

Anyway, looks like it’s gonna be Mum to the rescue now. 😂 I gave her two simple adjustments in her pelvis and lumbar spine yesterday and she’s super happy again!

Good news for coffee lovers: your morning latte counts ☕

The “8 glasses a day” rule is close, but not exact. Australian guidance is about 2.1 litres of fluid a day for women and 2.6 litres for men. Around 20% of that comes from food, and tea, coffee and milk count too. Plain water is still the best choice for most of it.

You’ll need more on hot days, when you exercise, or if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding. With summer on the way, it’s a good time to keep a bottle handy.

Save this one for the next heatwave, and tell us your hydration hack below 👇

When we talk about ‘somatic work’ we’re referring to processes and techniques that help us move our attention from the mind to the body.

Most of us spend WAYYYYYY too much time in overthinking land and have the attention spans of gnats on speed (thanks, phones). And it’s cool to spend a teeny bit of time there - you’re a human after all, and the range of experiences available is dizzying and interesting. ✨

But ultimately, returning your attention to your body and how you’re FEELING is what we’re aiming for, otherwise it’s all numbing and distraction…..

These simple movement practices can help. Think of them as moving meditations. There are heaps of ways to get back ‘in your body.’ If you’re not doing it regularly, ask yourself why not? Is there something you don’t wanna feel in there?

Welcome Jana to the team at The Urban Alchemist! ✨

If you’ve done the talk therapy, know your patterns inside out, but still aren’t seeing the changes you want, the missing piece is often your relationship to your body. We’re so excited to introduce Jana Cederquist - a new therapist to us - weaving together somatics, parts work and shamanic energy medicine to help you heal across the physical, emotional and spiritual layers of your being.

Jana offers two distinct session types depending on your needs:
🌿 Somatic Parts Work Therapy
A sister to talk therapy, perfect for those who love to get to the bottom of things but are ready to go deeper. Through conversation and body awareness, Jana helps you find where you’re holding contraction in your body. She also draws on IFS (Internal Family Systems) to understand the different parts of you that may be running old operating codes that no longer serve you. Gently unwind old patterns, process stored emotion and move out of survival mode into alignment.
✨ Trauma Release & Energy Healing
Hands-on sessions on the table, designed to release stuck trauma imprints, restore safety and clear energetic blockages. Jana combines Neuroaffective Touch, somatic bodywork, Reiki and Shamanic Energy Medicine to support deep nervous system repair.

Whether you’re looking for deep nervous system repair or exploring a body-focused path beyond traditional talk therapy, Jana holds a warm, compassionate space for your journey.
Bookings are now open. Head to the link in our bio or call us to reserve your spot!

Meet the Activator: chiro, minus the crack. ✨

People say it feels like a stapler. A very gentle stapler. Or a very polite nail gun. 😅

Dr Izzy (.isabellaryan) reaches for it when a manual neck adjustment isn’t the right fit, whether that’s nerves, preference or what your body needs on the day.

💚 Prefer gentle? Book a $47 intro chiro session at theurbanalchemist.com.au or call (03) 9347 9247

Big lunch? Here’s your excuse for a stroll afterwards 🌿

A 2022 review found that even 2 to 5 minutes of light walking after a meal can help lower your blood sugar. Moving within 60 to 90 minutes of eating seemed most effective. No gym needed, just a lap of the block, a walk to the tram, or a wander through the park.

Save this for your next big meal, and tag the friend you’d walk it off with 👇

Came in with pretty low expectations… 🤭

"I had a massage from Kelly and… it changed my life. I have three words which I can't use here." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Claire N.

We'll let you guess the three words. Kelly () blends remedial massage with Lomi Lomi and ZenThai Shiatsu, and the reviews speak for themselves.
