practice announcement #2
opal wellness
Dearest reader,
Happy Full Moon in Taurus! Venus rules Taurus, and she is the most exalted, cared for, authentic, and aligned version of herself in the sign of the bull. It’s time to prioritize our values, our needs, our desires, and everything we require to be nourished, joyful, and well. It’s also worth pointing out that Pluto enters Aquarius this month, signalling a clear end of a cycle and the fresh start of a new one.
Given the astrological climate, this next announcement feels perfectly timed.
In my last email, I announced the addition of a new practice location: Nurture and Flo on Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mornings. Things have been flowing beautifully at N+F (I love it there and my patients do, too!), and today I have one more exciting announcement.
Starting in December, I am joining the team at Opal Wellness on Monday and Tuesday afternoons! Located in Esquimalt’s West Bay Marina at 526 Head Street, Opal Wellness is a luxury holistic wellness clinic offering the highest levels of care in a stunning, multi-disciplinary space hosting acupuncturists, naturopaths, massage therapists, aestheticians, and holistic nutritionists.
In addition to my regular offerings - acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, gua sha, moxibustion, and Reiki - I will be adding facial rejuvenation acupuncture to the menu, as well as community acupuncture! I will have access to one chair in Opal’s communal healing area during each shift (see 2nd photo below) where you can receive an acupuncture treatment at a fraction of the cost. Book in advance for December here.
This beautiful clinic is a collaboration between Sasha Ormiston, R.Ac. (owner of Nurture and Flo) and Dr. Amelia Patillo. Together, they’ve created a sanctuary that supports both inner balance and outer radiance by centring whole body wellness, skin health, and clean beauty.
I recently had the pleasure of attending an Acupuncture Spa Facial Protocol workshop taught by Sasha Ormiston at Opal Wellness where participants all gave and received a treatment as part of the training. I’m not sure what was better - receiving or giving care in this space. The decor, the lighting, the music, the vibe: 10/10. Absolutely delightful. Serene. Impeccable.
Opal’s commitment to compassionate care and a truly elevated wellness experience is felt in every corner, every detail, and every service. Joining this team is a total dream and an honour.
upgrade your wellness
We all deserve to be cared for in beautiful spaces and I have finally found the perfect locations to fully embody the authentic essence of my private practice. My intention is for these shifts to upgrade your healing journey as we work together towards your highest expression of radiance and wellbeing. It’s a new era and I hope you’ll join me for this glow up at Opal Wellness and Nurture and Flo!
This is my schedule now (click links to book):

Stay tuned because I’ve got a winter special brewing that you are going to love and it’s all about beauty, luxury, pampering, and wellness.
Thank you for being on this journey with me as we both expand, uplevel, and become ever more aligned with our authentic values and desires.
With love and appreciation,
Andrea Penagos, R.TCM.P, L.Ac.
