The Story Behind Neoma Wellness and Evoke - by Kelsey Fitch
People often ask me where the idea for Neoma Wellness came from, and the truth is, there wasn't a single moment where I woke up and decided to start a wellness organization.

A Simpler Approach to Strength Training for Women - by Tiara Desmarais
Hey! My name is Tiara and I’m a local personal trainer here in Saskatoon. I’m also a busy mom and business owner.

Lifelong Foundational Nutrition & Lifestyle Practices for Gut Health - by Justine Bouvier
As a Holistic Nutritionist and Natural Nutrition Clinical Practitioner, I see many people doing too much for their gut, yet missing the fundamentals that actually allow digestion and healing to occur. Gut health doesn’t improve from constant restriction, rotating supplements, or chasing the next “best” probiotic.
