ABOUT US
MEET VIRGINIA
Hi,
My name is Virginia Ede and healing and the initiation of well being has been at the heart of my journey for as long as I can remember.
​
The magic of my complementary therapies practice was created back in 2005, working with gentle yet powerful modalities such as Bowen Therapy, Reiki, and Australian Bush Flowers to help people find relief from pain, stress, and anxiety. However as time went on, I realized that healing is so much more than easing physical discomfort—it’s about reconnecting with who we truly are, finding peace, and nurturing our souls.
​
That realization inspired the 'birth' of my Maggie’s Farm Sanctuary, named after a very special little soul, a place that holds my heart and embodies my passion. Here, healing isn’t just something we do—it’s something we live. It’s about creating a safe, peaceful space where people and animals alike can heal, grow, and thrive.
​
Our amazing horses and our other rescued animal family are an integral part of this journey. Each one has a story of resilience and an incredible ability to connect on a deep, intuitive level. Together, we create moments of genuine connection and transformation. There’s something profoundly healing about being in the presence of these beautiful beings—they help us release fear, embrace authenticity, and rediscover our strength and courage.
​
For me, this isn’t just work; it’s a calling. Seeing people walk away lighter, freer, and more at peace fills my heart with deep appreciation and gratitude.
In truth, Maggie’s Farm Sanctuary is a reflection of everything I believe in: compassion, connection, and the power of healing—for humans and animals - in a safe space.
​
I’m so grateful to share this journey and I invite you to experience the magic of this special place.
Maggies Farm came into creation through the powerful inspiration and all-encompassing loving relationship with a very special being (our remarkable Staffie X Beagle, Magnolia) who shared with us an outstanding, happy and fulfilling life for many years.
Why Maggie's Farm was Created
At just four months old, Maggie made headlines for the unimaginable cruelty she endured. She was tied to the back of a car and dragged through the streets of Woy Woy, on the NSW Central Coast. Left bloodied and severely injured at a waste disposal depot, her fate seemed grim.
​
Thankfully, an employee found her and reported it to the local pound. Realizing the extent of her injuries, Maggie was rushed to a nearby veterinary clinic. Malnourished, with little calcium in her frail body, and suffering from mange on top of her injuries, her chances seemed slim.
​
But Maggie defied the odds. Not only did she survive, but she thrived. Despite her tough start, she lived with a joy and zest for life that was truly inspiring.
Maggie blessed us with her presence for almost 15 years, and her resilience became the inspiration for Maggie’s Farm Sanctuary. Her spirit lives on in the sanctuary she helped create, a place where healing, love, and second chances bloom.

The Sanctuary's Purpose
The creation of Maggie’s Farm Sanctuary was our way of giving back—not only to Maggie, but to all the incredible souls who have shared their lives with us over the years. This sanctuary is a safe, nurturing haven for them, and for you as well.
Here, we offer the opportunity to experience the healing and restorative power that this sanctuary holds. Your freedom from pain, discomfort, anxiety, and stress is just a phone call away!

MAGGIE'S STORY

“"I visited Virginia for a Bowen session when I could hardly walk.
After just one session the pain was gone, I could stand up straight and could smile for the first time in a week.
Virginia has a certain touch, which is relaxing and gentle yet very effective.
Visiting Virginia is always a pleasant experience.”

“If it weren't for Ellie's Bowen treatment every few weeks she wouldn’t have the quality of life that she has at this time.
I must admit that I was a little skeptical at first, but after seeing her results, I am totally convinced that she lasted the years that she did because of Bowen.”
Deb W - NSW Central Coast
“Not only did Virginia’s Bowen Therapy help to heal our dog, she also offered such wonderful advise during a very stressful time.
​
I am truly grateful for Virginia’s work and would recommend Bowen Therapy to anyone who is in need of pain relief”
