My Story

Janet Dacosta holistic health practitioner Bass Coast

Hi, I'm Janet (AKA Janny), a Kinesiologist and Somatic Mind-Body Practitioner based on the beautiful Bass Coast, Victoria.

My interest in mind‑body and energy‑based approaches grew from my own lived experience with cancer and chronic illness. I became curious about how chronic stress, beliefs, unprocessed emotions, and unresolved experiences can impact our physiology, and began exploring Brain & Nervous System Retraining, Somatic Embodiment Coaching and Kinesiology.

Inner Sana developed from this journey, and now I'm passionate about supporting other women on their own journey to wellness.

With two decades of experience in the health and wellness field, my work is shaped by both formal training and lived experience. I bring a compassionate, integrative approach to supporting your wellbeing.

My Mission

My mission is to help other women tap into their body's innate wisdom and ability to heal.

To rebuild safety, self-trust, and connection to their divine nature beneath the layers of stress, conditioning, and survival states that have shaped their world.

I’m dedicated to supporting women’s wellbeing and personal growth in a way that feels compassionate, deeply human.and respectful of your individual story and the wisdom of your body.

About Inner Sana

Inner Sana offers a nurturing space designed to help you cultivate a deep sense of connection and trust in the wisdom of your mind, body, and being, supporting you to live in a way that feels more aligned and resourced.
