Bodywork Isn't For You

If you only go for massages when they're covered, this probably isn't for you.

If you’re expecting the same routine as last time,
asking for work “just on your shoulders,”
or if you think pressure equals depth, you won't like it here.

Bodywork isn't just: massage that isn't covered.
It's a full umbrella of modalities that treat the body from a holistic perspective.

Bodywork, the way I practice it, is integrative and responsive.

It’s not a set sequence or routine. It’s not segmental- one area of focus. It’s not me testing to see how much pressure you can handle. Bodywork feels different. Bodywork is different.

If you want holistic, personalized care,
bodywork is for you.

Introducing A New Series:

Bodywork Isn't For You

Not everyone is a fit for this work. And that's okay. There are other things out there for you.

Bodywork, the way I practice it, isn't a quick fix or something to check off your to-do list.

This work asks for your attention and curiosity. For your presence. For your willingness to slow down and actually be in your body. That's not for everyone, and that's okay.

This work is slow. Intentional. Present.
It will change how you move through your day. And even how you see your life.

If you want to experience ease and spaciousness, bodywork is for you.

If you want to slow down and create intentional time for yourself, bodywork is for you.

Buccinator: a thin quadrilateral facial muscle located in the deep cheek region that presses the cheeks against the teeth.

Buccal therapy/massage:
Intraoral technique that treats facial muscles from inside the mouth to lift, sculpt, and release deeply held tension.

Used to treat chronic jaw pain, tension, and headaches. Also popular for those seeking a natural facelift, as it can diminish the appearance of nasolabial folds, reduce puffiness, and enhance contours of the jaw and cheekbones.

Buccal therapy is included (and optional) when receiving the GLOW facial bodywork treatment at Breathing Space Bodywork.

It's time for Breathing Space Bodywork to move. Again.

I'm not going to focus on the annoyance, I'm going to focus on my ability to make any space a MF vibe! 🪄

I have moved multiple times in my 16 year business journey; some spaces were cozier and darker, some spacious and bright. But no matter what, the bodywork was always fire 🔥

I love this work too much to give it up. Let's find me a new space!!

So, here's the scoop
⭐ Cadence is not renewing their lease.
⭐ Breathing Space Bodywork needs a new home before the end of May.
⭐ If you have suggestions for a perfect new home, please let me know.

My ideal wishlist is:
✅ Quiet, spacious unfinished room
✅ On-site laundry
✅ Sink in the room
✅ Accessible by transit & good parking options
✅ Ability to put signage outside, or on the door
✅ Monthly rental, with 24/7 availability

Will consider:
▶️ Shared room
▶️ Wellness clinic
▶️ Day rate rental
▶️ New neighbourhood
▶️ No sink, but washrooms close by

If there is another wellness/healthcare practitioner looking to share, I am open to that. I've been looking at some spaces in Kitsilano.

PS. I commute by bike and live in the West End so distance is a consideration.

I got a taste of my own medicine yesterday and I liked it.

In general, I'm picky about who I allow to touch me. How could I not be?

I occasionally receive massage. I occasionally receive bodywork. And in general it feels somewhere between fine and good. At the bare minimum my skin is moisturized afterwards. I'm sure some lymphatic fluid has probably been encouraged to head towards my lymph nodes for drainage 😄, and occasionally I feel relaxed or more mobile when I get off the table.

It's rare for me to feel completely comfortable on someone else's massage table and even rarer to be blown away by a practitioner but....

There is ONE person...
Who has the skill, presence, capacity, knowledge, and confidence to work on me and with whom, I can 100% absolutely surrender. Her name is Stacey Lynn .bodywork

I have known and received from her for 15 years. Her work has evolved to a level that even I am in awe of. Whenever something is sore or painful in my body, my first thought is: I wish Stacey was here.
She has worked magic on my body many, many times.
But yesterday, when she was weaving her magical bodywork web on me, I had this realization: the way I feel when Stacey works on me, is the way my clients feel when I work on them. And then my heart swelled. And I cried. I love that I have someone who can provide for me what I strive to provide for others. Thank you to my clients who keep coming back for the specific kind of work I offer, for trusting me again and again. Thank you to Stacey for being the space-holding, magical bodywork goddess that you are. I have so much gratitude today.

✨ Youthful Glow Activated ✨

Brighter eyes.
Reduced puffiness.
Youthful skin.

As fluid is moved, stagnation is cleared- revealing a brighter, awakened face.

GLOW is facial-focused bodywork, working with the muscles of the face, scalp, and neck.

The aesthetic shift is a byproduct. The real work is deeper.

What will your after-GLOW reveal?

Self-care isn't always about doing more.
Sometimes it's about doing less.

Pause.
Relax.
Breathe.
Let go.

✨Soft Gaze Activated✨

Lifted brows and forehead.
Open and brighter eyes.
Relaxed cheeks, mouth and jaw.
Brighter, softer, even skin texture.

When the nervous system settles, the face reflects it—less tension, more ease.

GLOW is facial-focused bodywork: addressing the muscles of the face, jaw, and neck using buccal therapy, gua sha, and facial cupping to release tension and support healthy movement in the tissues.

The result is subtle yet meaningful; natural changes that are both visible and felt.

relax, breathe, glow.

Before we address tension in the body, the nervous system needs to feel safe.

Simple moments—quiet, warmth, and supportive touch—help the body soften and prepare for deeper work.

From there, real change becomes possible.

Integrative bodywork at Breathing Space Bodywork is designed to support both the body and nervous system, helping you release tension and return to a deeper state of ease.

Book your 60, 90 or 120-minute session and experience it for yourself.

✨Inner Glow Activated ✨

Less tension through the jaw.
More softness around the eyes.
Cheeks and Spirit lifted.

When chronic holding patterns in the face begin to release, structure changes. Circulation improves. The nervous system settles.

GLOW is facial-focused bodywork — working with the muscles of the face, scalp, and neck.

The aesthetic shift is a byproduct. The real work is deeper.

GLOW is now available as a 60-minute stand-alone treatment.

New Blog Post.

If you’ve only heard of gua sha through social media, it can seem like a modern facial “beauty hack.”

But gua sha is not new — and it’s not just cosmetic.

Facial gua sha uses gentle, gliding strokes to encourage circulation and lymphatic flow while softening the muscles of the face and jaw. It can help with:

• jaw clenching and TMJ tension
• temple and forehead tightness
• facial puffiness and sinus congestion
• headaches linked to jaw or facial tension

Many people don’t realize how much stress they carry in their face until it begins to release.
