Welcome to Radiant Effect
About Us
We’ve spent years working in the healthcare field but have often found that there are missing pieces in helping people to heal fully.
We created the Radiant Effect because we wanted to offer a broader scope of support than one person alone can provide. We know that we are better together.
The Radiant Effect allows us to show up fully in our zones of genius and create an elevated experience that is greater than the sum of its parts.
We are not just another healthcare provider. We link arms with you to empower your choices to heal and live as your most radiant self. We use science, movement, community and practical tools so that you can experience the radiant effect.
We welcome you with open arms to experience the Radiant Effect for yourself!

Meg Aris
Meg is an embodied movement educator and health coach. Diagnosed with an autoimmune disease as a child, Meg learned through her own journey that the quest we are on is about seeking excellence which requires inquiry, failure, vulnerability and resilience. She has been using this to guide her teaching since 2005 with a focus on mindful movement, somatic therapy and nervous system health.
Meg has completed two comprehensive pilates trainings (The Pilates Center, The PhysicalMind Institute), several levels of yoga teacher trainings and trauma informed somatic studies. She has been faculty for many different pilates and yoga trainings around Vancouver Island and the lower mainland, as well as throughout Canada. She also holds a bachelor degree in writing and anthropology. In 2010, she joined the team at Fix Healthcare Victoria and continues to lead the pilates program there.
She lives in Victoria, BC and can be found spending time out in the forest, walking her dogs, or digging in the garden along side her chickens and bees.
Rachel Mark
Rachel is a Registered Acupuncturist and Integrative Health Coach living in Victoria, BC. Rachel has a keen interest in the human body, how it works and the incredible interconnectedness in its ability to heal. Across multiple school programs and almost 20 years of education, the missing pieces of the healing language remained. She has dedicated her career to weaving those missing pieces together and spends her days working with people of all ages and backgrounds to optimize health and integrate a whole-person approach to healing.
She holds degrees in Kinesiology as well as Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine and is certified as a yoga teacher, clinical exercise physiologist and kinesiologist. She truly believes these powerful forms of medicine can ignite our own healing response and bring us into a brighter, clearer and more radiant state of being.
When not in clinic, she can be found walking along the beach with her golden retriever, enjoying an amazing cup of coffee, or cozying up with a good book!
