Discover Shiatsu: A Holistic Approach to Your Well-Being

Shiatsu, originating from Japan and inspired by traditional Chinese medicine, is much more than just a therapeutic massage. It provides a valuable complementary approach to enhance your well-being, alleviate everyday discomforts, and promote deep relaxation for both body and mind.

What is Shiatsu?

Shiatsu involves applying pressure to specific points along the meridians, gentle mobilisations, passive stretching, and breathing exercises. This practice promotes the flow of energy throughout the body while delivering profound relaxation. At the end of your session, you'll receive personalised advice to extend the benefits of your treatment.

Benefits of Shiatsu:

• Boosts the Immune System: By enhancing lymphatic drainage, Shiatsu strengthens your immune system. 
• Reduces Stress and Anxiety: Shiatsu calms the nervous system, improving sleep quality and reducing the risk of stress, anxiety, and burnout. 
• Improves Digestion: It supports better digestion, which is crucial for optimal physical and mental well-being.
• Tones the Tissues: By working on the fascia, Shiatsu enhances the flexibility and mobility of your bodily tissues.
• Relieves Muscle and Joint Tension: It deeply relaxes muscles and eases tense joints.
• Releases Emotional Tension: Providing a space for decompression, Shiatsu fosters long-lasting emotional balance.
• Perfect Complement to Medical Care: Integrated into your health routine, it effectively supports other medical and therapeutic approaches.

Important to Know:

Shiatsu is not a substitute for medical advice and does not claim to diagnose or cure illnesses. It is a complementary practice to traditional medical care and prevention, supporting your overall well-being. It's essential to continue consulting your doctor for any health concerns.

Consultations and Advice:

Each Shiatsu session concludes with personalised advice to enhance your lifestyle. With my qualifications in nutrition, I can offer guidance on balancing your diet to further support your overall well-being.

Practical Information:

• Preparation Before Your Session: For an optimal experience, avoid eating for an hour before your treatment. A prior shower also aids in muscle relaxation.
• Recommended Attire: Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Avoid jeans, jewellery, and bras for maximum comfort.
• Session Duration: Each session lasts between 1 and 1.5 hours, including time for a thoughtful discussion before and after the treatment for a tailored approach.
• Frequency and Follow-Up: Shiatsu can be beneficial for addressing specific tension on an occasional basis or used regularly for in-depth work on your overall well-being.

I want to emphasise that Shiatsu, like all my services, is strictly free from any intimate or sensual elements. My primary aim is to provide you with a space for well-being, relaxation, and deep meditation.
