Somatic Bodywork for Polyamorous & Non-Monogamous People
Based in the Pantarei Approach · Sessions opening in early 2026
Polyamory is not just a cognitive choice. It is a lived, embodied experience.
Non-monogamy brings us into complex emotional territory where we experience joy and love alongside jealousy, fear, grief, anxiety, freedom, expansion, and contraction, often all at once.
Navigating open relationships asks more of us than theory or communication tools alone. It invites us to listen to what is happening beneath the words.
It calls us into the body.
Somatic support for open-hearted, open and and alternative relationships
Non-monogamous relationships invite us into a deeper relationship with ourselves. It asks us to stay present with our emotions, our boundaries, our needs, and our desires while navigating intimacy with more than one partner.
This can be beautiful, expansive, and also deeply activating in the body.
Pantarei Approach somatic bodywork offers a grounded and transformative way to support your nervous system, your relational field, and your capacity for connection both to others and, most importantly, to yourself.
Whether you are moving through jealousy, communication challenges, new relationship energy, attachment activation, or simply wanting to feel more regulated and resourced in your body, this work can help.
What is the Pantarei Approach?
Pantarei is a talk- and touch-based somatic approach that helps people return to their bodies and reconnect with their own inner sense of direction, truth, strength and intuition.
Through a combination of attuned, consent-led touch and ongoing dialogue, we explore what is happening in your body here and now. This allows sensations, emotions, impulses, and meaning to be noticed and expressed as they arise, rather than only analyzed in the mind and from a distance.
Rather than focusing on fixing or interpreting experiences, Pantarei supports people in reconnecting with their own inner qualities and with who they are in the moment. By slowing down and listening to the body, many people regain access to an internal sense of orientation, a felt navigation system that helps them sense what feels right, what feels off, and how to respond more clearly in relationship and in life.
At its core, Pantarei helps widen perspectives. When stress, relational challenges, or past experiences narrow attention and choice, this work supports awareness of both inner experience and the relational field around you. From this place, new possibilities for regulation, connection, and movement can emerge, often bringing a greater sense of clarity, agency, and aliveness.
A somatic pathway back to yourself
Whether you’re working through jealousy, longing, numbness, grief, desire, or boundary challenges, Pantarei-informed bodywork can support you to:
shift from overthinking into embodied presence
release emotional tension and support nervous system regulation
understand relational and attachment patterns through bodily awareness
build trust in your intuition, boundaries, and inner guidance
navigate jealousy, comparison, and fear of loss and abandonment with more ease
feel clearer and more grounded in relational dynamics and multiple connections
soften shutdown, distancing, sensitivity, stress, and/or burnout
reconnect with pleasure, spaciousness, and a sense of aliveness
Pantarei Somatic Bodywork Sessions for Polyamory & Non-Monogamy
As part of my ongoing training in the Pantarei Approach (graduation and official certification estimated for June 2026), I will be offering somatic, body-based sessions as an optional complement to polyamory coaching starting February 2026.
These sessions are intuitive and present-moment focused. They are designed to help you connect with your inner experience, express what has been stuck or unspoken, and feel more at home in your own body.
If you’re interested in this work, you’re welcome to email me to be added to the waiting list and receive the official announcement once sessions open.
What Happens in a Somatic Bodywork Coaching Session?
Each session is unique. It is shaped by who you are, what you are bringing, and what feels needed in the moment. There is no one-size-fits-all approach.
Our work together is talk- and touch-based. From the beginning, sessions include hands-on bodywork alongside ongoing verbal dialogue. Touch is an integral part of the work and is always guided by clear communication, consent, and respect for your boundaries.
In our first session, we take time to get to know each other. I’ll invite you to share what you’re navigating emotionally, relationally, and physically, and we’ll begin to clarify intentions for our work together. From there, we move into body-based exploration, staying in continuous conversation about what you’re experiencing.
Bodywork may involves attuned touch, awareness of breath, subtle movement, or pausing to notice what is present in your body. Touch is always discussed beforehand, offered with care, and adjusted throughout the session. You are welcome to give feedback, ask for changes, or pause at any time.
Some sessions involve more talking, others less. Sometimes there is movement, sometimes stillness. The aim is not to fix or force anything, but to create space for what wants to be felt, expressed, or integrated - physically, emotionally, and energetically.
This first meeting is also an opportunity for both of us to sense whether this work feels supportive and whether we are a good fit to continue. Your agency, comfort, and well-being are always at the center of the process.
