Shiatsu

Shiatsu is a gentle form of bodywork rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Shiatsu stimulates your body's vital energy by using gentle pressure, holding, stretches and limb rotations. Some massage movements may also be used. The treatment allows the energy to flow freely again - thereby relieving tension and pain.

Shiatsu can help you if you experience any of the following conditions:

Anxiety

Stress

Jet lag

Back pain

Sciatica

Neck and shoulder tension

Headaches

Insomnia

Depression

Digestive disorders

PMT

Low energy levels

Shiatsu is a deeply relaxing experience and it allows you to release physical and emotional tension. Receiving regular treatments can help you to prevent the build up of stress in your life. Shiatsu enables you to reconnect with your mind, body and spirit.

Each treatment is unique depending on what it is that will help you best at that point in time.

A Shiatsu session usually takes about one hour. The first session may take slightly longer as I spend time to find out more about your health and lifestyle in order to develop a complete picture of you.

The treatment takes place fully-clothed on a futon at floor level. I recommend you to wear comfortable loose clothes.

Following the treatment, I talk with you about the session and see what you could do in your life to support the effects of the treatment. Recommendations that I give you might be specific exercises, meridian-stretches or suggestions of changes in your life-style that you can implement in your daily life.
