Our Complete History
2000-2019: WindSong School of Healing Ltd. (Original Name)
Founded in Campbell River, British Columbia, WindSong operated as a holistic education center training practitioners in:
- Shiatsu Therapy (2-year diploma, 1,000 clinical hours)
- Holistic Health Practitioner (11-month diploma)
- Iridology and Acupressure certifications
Over 300 students graduated with accreditation from the Canadian Shiatsu Society of BC (CSSBC), enabling professional practice and insurance billing.
2020-2021: Aarastyn Holistic Healing Arts (Corporate Rebrand)
In late 2019, the school underwent a corporate rebrand, becoming:
Aarastyn Holistic Healing Arts Home of Eastern Arts Therapy Clinic Ltd.
Despite the name change:
- Same programs (Shiatsu, holistic health, iridology)
- Same location (Campbell River cabin/clinic)
- Same staff and educational philosophy
- Same domain (windsonghealing.com)
The rebrand was a corporate restructuring, not a change in ownership or mission.
March 2021: Domain Expired
The windsonghealing.com domain registration lapsed in March 2021 and was not renewed. The site displayed a “temporarily unavailable” message for four years.
2025-2026: WindSong Healing Revived
We reacquired windsonghealing.com in late 2025, restoring the original WindSong name (honoring the 2000-2019 legacy).
Rather than reopening the holistic school, we pivoted to evidence-based supplement reviews—channeling 25+ years of wellness expertise into nutraceutical analysis backed by peer-reviewed clinical trials.
Why the pivot: Our community (former students, practitioners, website visitors) increasingly requested supplement guidance supported by rigorous science, especially for YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) health topics.
Transparency Statement
We acknowledge the full 26-year history of this domain, including:
- The Aarastyn rebrand (2020-2021)
- The dormant period (2021-2025)
- Our pivot from holistic education to supplement reviews (2026)
This transparency aligns with Google’s E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) guidelines for YMYL content.
