* Foundations of Sexological Bodywork summarised:
The foundations of Sexological Bodywork are centered on sexual healing, education, mindful self loving, and body awareness through client-led, therapeutic touch. This modality integrates breathwork, movement, sound, and guided touch to help individuals connect with their bodies and sexuality in a safe, consent-based environment. Sessions focus on areas such as exploring pleasure, releasing trauma, and addressing sexual dysfunction, while incorporating sex education and the anatomy of pleasure. Practitioners remain clothed, and all touch is one-way, creating a professional and respectful space for healing and growth. Each session is shaped by the client's needs and goals, ensuring a personalized experience that supports sexual well-being.

• Client-Led and Therapeutic: Sexological Bodywork is driven by the client's needs, focusing on sexual healing, body awareness, and resolving trauma in a safe, structured environment.
• One-Way Touch, Clear Boundaries: All touch is one-way, with the practitioner fully clothed, ensuring a professional, respectful space for growth.
• Educational Focus: It incorporates sexual education and the anatomy of pleasure, helping clients explore communication, boundaries, and consent.
• Distinct from Tantra Massage: While Tantra massage focusing on sexual energy and spirituality, sexological bodywork works with sexual energy and focuses on clients needs, education, healing, and a trauma-informed approach.
