Empowering Wellness

Hi, I’m Lexy Itskovich. I’m a Holistic Wellness Counsellor dedicated to empowering YOU to live a truly happy, fulfilled & healthy life.

With my background in Counselling, Physiotherapy, and Movement, I have crafted a holistic health and wellness practice that addresses both physical health and mental well-being.

My own healing involved years of discovery, learning and growing, physically and mentally.

Let’s dive into my story…

An Unusual Beginning

Because I grew up in Israel, I walked the path young people are expected to take. I served in the National Military Force. It was the hardest 2 years of my life. But I committed to it. Soon I was promoted to the rank of Corporal, responsible for delivering initial training to the newest recruits.

I was used to a disciplined way of life. From the age of 4, I was a competitive gymnast and went on to rank No. 1 nationally. I then became a gymnastics coach while securing Distinction in my Bachelor of Physiotherapy degree. 

But I was curious. The body is an incredible machine, and I felt there was more to understand.

I quickly realised none of my training truly addressed the power of the mind for healing and recovery.  I had many wounds mentally and physically.

Yes, I was physically strong as a gymnast, but I felt broken inside.

“Sometimes it’s what you don’t say that speaks loudest.”

A Fresh Start

I took giant a leap out of my comfort zone all the way to Perth in Western Australia. No family, no partner, no friends – just me.

I thought moving countries would mean moving away from everything I didn’t like to finally live my best life. This is possibly one of the biggest lessons I’ve ever learned in life:

“Wherever you go, you take yourself with you.”

The move was a catalyst. I began to study and explore the mind, body and soul connection. From teaching yoga and Pilates to studying counselling, coaching and personal training. I was on a mission to find peace and quit fighting myself. Up until that point I was living in fear.  Genuinely afraid I wasn’t enough.

Mindset matters.

Flexy U

For as long as I can remember, people have shared their troubles and trauma with me. They talk. I listen. As a gymnastic coach and physiotherapist, I wasn’t simply demonstrating moves and massaging limbs. I learned to observe and to read between the lines when people spoke. And because of that I was able to respond differently to everyone.

My business - Flexy U, was born when I put all the pieces of the jigsaw together. My disciplined journey, my passion for learning about the mind-body connection, my own healing and my commitment to making a difference.

I’ve successfully used this multi-disciplinary approach to help clients come unstuck and to move forward – transforming their lives.

Now I want to be your guide and to teach you all I’ve learned. I empower you to start making changes in your life and more importantly …stick to them.

I’ll share my experiences and introduce evidence-based practices to support your transformation.
