Jean-Francois Sobiecki - Healer, Wellness Coach & Ethnobotanist

Good day. My name is Jean-Francois Sobiecki. I am a healer, nutritionist and medicinal plant researcher living in South Africa.

It is my work and passion to help guide people towards wellness using natural medicines such as plant foods, herbs, vitamins and an abundant and healthy lifestyle.

I love to teach and share knowledge on healing and medicinal plants so as to empower people.

Phyto (prounouned Fyto) means plant and phytoalchemy refers to my passion and calling in using plant medicines to transform illness into well-being.

In my private holistic healing practice I offer not only nutritional consultations to my patients but also counselling and Phytoalchemy Self Transformation coaching where I help guide people to find answers to their life's purpose and individual calling.

What does Jean-Francois' consultations involve?

Phytoalchemy Self Transformation Healing Process

A five week process is offered to holistically heal from the past and move forward in ones life with New Vision in your purpose, relationships and spiritual journey. This process uses the Phytoalchemy Medicine Wheel © as a model taking the individual on a process of self awareness and growth through various tools of self enquiry and personal transformation.

This process is especially useful for those suffering from life crises, depression and those wanting to transform their lives.

Nutritional Healing Consultations

Jean takes a full case history using holistic medicine diagnostics (organ system relationship/TCM based tongue assessment and a detailed health questionnaire etc) after which he puts an individualized wellness program with food as medicine guidelines, allergenic food exclusions and correct vitamin and mineral recommendations with the correct dosages. (what supplements/herbs the individual should be taking and their right dosage for the condition treated).

Plant Medicine - Energy Clearing and Grounding Treatments

Jean Francois uses cleansing, uplifting and strengthening plant medicine treatments (South African and South American cleansing, smudging and steaming medicines) to help people align, relax and be grounded.

Phytoalchemy Self Development Coaching 

Individual sessions of coaching are offered in order to guide a person on their life path using either image-journeying to find personal answers, emotional healing to let go of the past and re-visioning ones future.

Full day training on how to identify and use South Africa’s most powerful healing plants, what are psychoactive plants and how do they heal, an introduction to global traditional medicine systems (African Traditional Medicine, TCM, Ayurveda, Shamanism), wild foods plants, and principles of Holistic Medicine and Healing.  I can also answer questions and offer guidance on your own healing journey.
