If you would like to know more about Penny's background kindly read "about me" page.
But in short, before I became a licensed massage therapist in Canada. I have had B.Sc. in Psychology from Kasetsart University in Bangkok; which been evaluated and accredited by Ministère de l'Immigration, des Communautés culturelles et de l'Immigration (MICC).
After done high school, I passed the entrance exam and got accepted in full-time 4 years nursing program at Kuakarun Faculty of Nursing, Navamindradhiraj University (คณะพยาบาลศาสตร์เกื้อการุณ)
But I refused to join and turn my parents down as I do not want to work in a hospital environment. I just went for the exam to proof my parents that I can achieve anything I set my mind to; to make my parents proud.
WHY I didn't join nursing school?
Because I was someone who grew up in the families of neuro surgeon, pediatrician, med doctor, dentist, oncologist, and veterinarian.
I watched my cousins studying in med schools, working in hospitals, I watched and witnessed my sister working at the hospitals. I witnessed their busy lifestyles; spending their times, energy and freedom under those titles, while they themself growing older with exhaustion; no time to enjoy life, no energy left at the end of the day, no love left for oneself. They neglected themself to comply with social standards and validation over themself and their families. That's why I didn't want to walk the same good, bad and ugly path that come with the title.
I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm saying it looks very draining; physically, mentally and psychologically. I felt so much for their sacrificed and wasted livelihood they could have as an individuals. As a sibling and cousin I wish to see them laugh more and let loose.
Which is why I got myself into the psychological side of human instead. I am more interested in human psyche. I was curious about human behaviors at a very young age. I still remember the thought in my head at my grandfather's funeral when I'm around 5-6 years old, looking around on people; thinking why they behave strange and different? What are they crying for? Everybody will die at some point, nope?
But that is a 5 years old's life experiences and thoughts, growing up without actual struggles, not knowing much about love; the good, bad and ugly that come with it.
I was passionate about humans. I wanted to know what caused them to be who they are.
Was it because of their up-bringing, genes, DNA imprinted, hormones, brain issues, development, childhood trauma, poverty, wealth, power, aging, sickness, struggles, greed, religion, god complex, educational background, group influences, social norms and standards, relationship dynamics, ego, motives, needs, environments, climate, thyself, spirits and any things beyond the shallow sweet talks or is it something they carry on from past life? What is it? I wanted to understand them on the deeper layers behind the veil and close door.
But life have pushed me back into the healer journey where I meant to be to begin with, after I moved to Canada, I guess.
I have learned and been trained Thai massage in Canada first, then went to get more training in Thailand after I got official licensed by RMPQ to practice in Quebec.
Of course I know the different between the East and the West approach; the pros and cons of different social norms and standards, life approach, and believe systems. And of course the principle of massage approach and techniques which rooted in our survival needs and psyche. Which is very understandable.
Or I might say perhaps my practices aim to go beyond the mundane narrative or what meet the eye; things that the physicality and the mind can't comprehend.
After 13 years of services. My practice becomes multidisciplinary that I tailored to each individual needs at the very moment I meet them. From traditional Thai massage, relaxation massage, pregnancy massage, foot massage, belly massage, head neck shoulder massage, lymphatic drainage, etc.
But most people come to me for my strong hands, to deal with their chronic pains, which get me to practice more and specialize in advanced Thai medical massage techniques or Nuad Sen that I got trained in Thailand.

I don't do direct deposits with insurer as I am a solopreneur who don't plan to take more than she can chew each day. I don't have time and energy to jump into the higher tax brackets being a care provider of two kids.

I first started learning Thai massage, the healing art in September 2013 at a reputable and recognized massage school by RMPQ in Gatineau from Alexandre Rouhani, D.O. Then got licensed by Réseau des massothérapeutes professionnels du Québec (RMPQ) with a good standing in Fall 2014.
Then I flew my two little boys with me to visit their Thai roots in Bangkok, Thailand during school's summer break in 2014. As I wanted to learn Thai massage from the original, to understand the core principle and dig deeper with this over 2,500 years of healing art in my own mother tongue; Thai language. So I can ingrained this ancient practices and know-how with western health science upon anatomy-physiology knowledge.
At Wat Po Thai traditional medicine and massage school; which recognized and accredited by educational authority of Thailand. I started the training again from general level --- traditional Thai massage. Then advanced Thai medical massage which more focus on 10 main energy pathways or Sen lines which covered around 50 ailments. Then I trained relaxation oil massage and aromatherapy.
In Summer 2017, I flew to Phang Nga, Thailand to learn Thai warrior massage from a very skillful master who taught many World Champions in Massage--- Jack Shaman--- when I took my boys to visit my Thai parents and the families.
Then I learned cupping therapy, cellulite massage, pure gold leaf facial massage, abdominal massage, Pha Khao Ma massage, Tok sen massage and Nuad Karsai (for reproductive issues both male and female figures).
In Spring 2024, I took pregnancy massage class at Académie de massage et d'orthothérapie.
In Fall 2026, I will take some other training in Gatineau, followings Canada Life's criteria.
Any way, my skill sets and expertise are not coming from an easy come, easy go, no serious investment places. Rather from a willpower over decade of hard work, focus, long term goals, visions and lessons learned. Hoping I will do better, be better than I was yesterday.
Like Bruce Lee once stated;
I fear not a man who practice 10,000 kicks once. I fear a man who practices one kick 10,000 times.

TRADITIONAL THAI MASSAGE
NEAR PORTAGE BRIDGE OTTAWA DOWNTOWNS
Healing is a very personal journey. Each body reacts differently upon individual's lifestyle, food we consume, experiences, background, knowledge, know-how, knowingly and unknowingly, aware and unaware of our surroundings and habits.
Just like the food we eat. Some people prefer sweet taste while others like salty taste, sour, a little bitter or a mix of everything.
I am not a magician. I can only do something, not everything for everyone and anyone. I can only share what I have to offer. I can not own any one's feelings nor take ownership.
I can only witness my surrounding but I can not own nor control any one's life experiences, circumstances, perception, attitude, and how one feel, think, speak, or act.
All I can give is honesty and good wish that you are conscious enough to not hurt yourselves in any way, shape or form. Hoping that my long journey on this planet, and skills could make you feel a little better and hopeful for your endeavors.
Thank you for taking the time to read all this non-sense and considering my services. I truly appreciate your patient and understanding regarding the background challenges I have navigated and shared my side of the story being a wounded healer. I look forward to serve you at the best of my abilities.
