Core Values
The driving motivation behind Triangle Wellness Bodywork is the belief that all bodies deserve to receive the care they need. It's easy to say that in theory, so here are some details about how we "walk the talk" and hold space for folks that may not otherwise feel seen, safe, or welcome in traditional wellness spaces.
We are trauma-informed
Client safety will always be our primary concern, and that includes emotional safety. Before each session, we will establish boundaries of touch in detail to ensure fully informed consent, and as a general baseline practice conservative draping to ensure client comfort. We encourage and support client choice in level of dress when in session, and treatment is a collaborative effort as we work together to meet your needs. Trustworthiness is our guiding star, and we will explicitly discuss all decisions about your care together before proceeding. We recognize that trauma can occur on interpersonal, cultural & societal levels, and practice humility as we continue to deepen our understanding of the human experience.
We are fat-positive
We believe in health at every size, and will always be focused on how we can best serve your needs - especially for those in marginalized bodies. We have table extenders, as well as other various bolsters available to prioritize client comfort. Our table has a working weight of 550 lbs, and is 31 inches wide before table extenders.
We honor the experiences of people of color
We believe Black Lives Matter, we support Land Back, and we continue to prioritize growth and community in our anti-racism journey. We continuously evaluate the cultural appropriateness of our work as we continue to educate ourselves about the ethnocultural origins of various healing practices.
We practice sliding-scale
We believe our services have the power to facilitate healing and embodiment in our communities. We want our services to be accessible for those that need them, while honoring the well-being of the therapist performing the services. Learn more about the "Green Bottle" philosophy behind our sliding scale levels.
Note: Our sliding scale system is currently being re-worked to be more supportive of both client and practitioner wellbeing. Sign up for our newletter to stay up to date.
