Farida Irani founded Subtle Energies as a clinic in 1993. She is an Ayurveda Practitioner, Clinical Aromatherapist and teacher qualified in Aromatic Medicine, and a Senior Bowen Therapy Instructor, Remedial Therapies Practitioner, and Reflexologist. In this episode, Farida talks about healing from a childhood illness with the help of her father using ancient Ayurvedic techniques, a serendipitous meeting with a teacher, and her lifelong journey with this healing modality. Through her clinical research and studies, she has combined the sciences of Ayurveda with the science of Aromatherapy, reviving this ancient branch using essential oils in Ayurveda. Farida has therefore been regarded as a pioneer in the concept of Ayurveda Aromatherapy.


She completed her Postgraduate studies (Ayurveda Nishnata) with world-renowned Prof Dr. P. H. Kulkarni (Ex Dean Ayurveda University, Pune, India). In October 2006, the International Ayurveda Open University awarded Farida her Ayurveda Parangat to recognize her research in Ayurveda. Her work has received international recognition and awards from Ayurveda, Aromatherapy, Reflexology, and other health industries. The Australian Government has accredited her work as a Diploma in Ayurveda Aromatherapy, a nationally recognized qualification.

From this background, she transformed her clinical work into a brand under Subtle Energies that could be accessed by many delivering high-performance results empowering one's physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.

Today Subtle Energies is a global family business with partnerships that include some of the world's most exclusive destinations, including Six Senses Spas, The Peninsula Hotel Group, Select Mandarin Oriental Hotels, and key historic Four Seasons properties.

Farida spends her time speaking at international conferences, teaching at the Subtle Energies College of Ayurveda Aromatherapy, running her clinic, volunteer works. She co-founded Ayurveda Yoga Australia, which holds the International Ayurveda & Yoga Conference. Farida is also responsible for bringing the Australian science of Bowtech, the original Bowen Therapy, to India and Taiwan and establishing training and therapist programs.
