Alquemi Holistics

AlQuemi Holistics is a private, appointment-only studio in Port Adelaide focused on somatic bodywork and nervous system regulation. Rather than presenting its services as a fixed treatment menu, the practice combines bodywork, breath, lymphatic techniques and stillness according to what each client needs on the day. Every session is one-to-one, with the visit beginning in conversation before moving into hands-on work. The approach is deliberately unhurried and is intended to meet people where they are, rather than forcing a particular outcome.

The Somatic Lymphatic Reset is the signature starting point: a 60-minute session bringing together lymphatic drainage, somatic bodywork, cupping and guided breath. Other offerings include Cupping & Hijama, Wood Therapy, remedial somatic massage, facial lymphatic treatments with red light therapy, Aroma & Nervous System sessions, RF treatments, and breathwork and meditation. The website also lists a 75-minute 555 Treatment, combining several of the studio’s modalities. For anyone unsure where to begin, AlQuemi recommends the Somatic Lymphatic Reset as the usual entry point, with the treatment shaped further during the session.

The studio is presented as a calm, private space for individual care rather than a busy day spa. The first visit starts with a conversation, and the practice places emphasis on working gently and allowing time for the body to settle. AlQuemi’s services are available to all genders and body types. Sessions may suit people looking for support with stress, tension, swelling, fatigue, restricted movement or general recovery, while the site also distinguishes between lymphatic work and fascial release depending on whether fluid movement or connective-tissue tension is the main concern. It is not necessary to arrive knowing exactly which treatment to book.

The practice is led by Vanna, who describes beginning the work through her own experience of stress, disconnection and restoration. Her listed training includes massage therapy, a Diploma of Mindfulness Practice, personal training, Reiki and NDIS support work, alongside specialisations in somatic lymphatic drainage, cupping, wood therapy and breathwork. In addition to in-studio treatments, she offers one-to-one coaching, meditation and breathwork online. AlQuemi also runs women’s retreats, meditation workshops and selected children’s yoga and fitness workshops, although the Port Adelaide studio’s core offering is private individual care. Sessions are booked online or by message, with the studio located at 3 Kyle Place.
