How can I help you?
Shiatsu is a wonderful modality, seamlessly blending ancient and traditional techniques to give you a beautiful and bespoke treatment.
As a hands-on treatment, I work with the soft tissue, including the fascia system, but as Shiatsu is an energy therapy (closely linked to acupuncture), I also work with your energy system to address any imbalances, bringing energy to where it is needed and dispersing it from where it has build up, restoring harmony and flow.
Shiatsu technique requires what we call Penetrating Pressure, to influence the energy channels and points on the body. This pressure can feel deeply nourishing and relaxing, but it can also feel a little sore if there is an imbalance. I also use gentle stretching and mobilisation to encourage the body to let go of tension, allowing Chi and fluids to flow more freely through the tissues and joints, washing away stagnation.
Shiatsu is a beautiful experience for the mind, body and soul.
