Bonnie’s work is deeply nourishing for all parts of the being. Her invitation to rest and receive is the medicine, her gentle and intuitive bodywork provides the mind, body and spirit time to integrate and heal. Her work is truly a gift.

Cindy Coelho, Thai Yoga Bodywork Therapist
Cindy has been engaged with bodywork since her time pursuing sports in her youth. In college she studied kinesiology and trained as a personal trainer, but a life detour led her to attain a degree in business. She has always been drawn to and pursued bodywork massage for her own healing.
In 2023 she began a course of training with Bonnie and deepened her relationship to the practice. Working with her first clients in summer of 2024, she has found the process transformational – giving others that same space of calm and expansion.
She says this work brings her more fully into the present and has made her stronger, which then improves her technique and allows her to be a better source of support for her own clients. Her clients appreciate her capacity to respond to their feedback, and the level of support and consideration she brings to the session.

What is Thai Yoga Bodywork?
Thai Yoga Bodywork is an ancient and elegant therapeutic art, shared for the purpose of harmonizing energy in the body. Conceived by an Ayurvedic doctor and celebrated yogi in India, it traveled to and took root in the Buddhist temples of Thailand, making the temples healing centers. It has been passed down through centuries as this doctor, Jivaka, attended to the health of the Buddha.
Every session addresses the whole body, yet each is tailored to your specific needs in the moment. Thai techniques incorporate compression, traction, stretching, acupressure points, joint mobilization, and percussion. Thai treatments are appropriate for all ages and stages of life. It meets you where you are – to align your body with balance and healthy self-regulation.
