What is bodywork?

Bodywork includes gentle Thai massage, nurturing relaxation massage, intuitive healing touch, and conscious holding.

Different from and complementary to Registered Massage Therapy, Penelope’s bodywork sessions focus on the connection between body, mind, heart and spirit.

Instead of just working on your muscles and ligaments, Penelope includes touch that nurtures your emotional system. She supports your spiritual connection by adding intuitive healing when desired. If you need conscious holding, that is offered as well.

The benefits of Penelope’s bodywork are the possibility of helping the disAbled, elderly and every other body experience ethical touch that goes beyond mere massage.

As a Certified Somatic Sex Educator since 2016, Penelope is qualified to offer whole-body holistic touch (one-way touch only) to help those people on a journey of healing sexual trauma, discovering capacity for pleasure, and going through death, dying and terminal illness.

Penelope’s bodywork is medicine for the body, and it’s also medicine for the heart and soul.

Just like a Medicine Session, bodywork can include tarot and animal cards to supplement the insights into what is needed for healing and illumination.

Her somatic therapy techniques are proven to help you feel more connected to your body as a way of processing and integrating what’s happening in your emotions and your mind because of your life circumstances.

Let's have a confidential conversation about whatever is currently going on in your life that needs attention.

Are you in the midst of a change or loss?

Are you celebrating something wonderful, and also feeling some anxiety?

Are you in a process of self-discovery relating to your sexuality and identity?

Are you experiencing the need to let go and grieve something that feels deeply impactful?

Bodywork sessions are held in-person at Penelope’s private location in Victoria BC.
