Shiatsu encourages the body to connect with its own healing abilities creating a more harmonious state of well-being and increased vitality. It can bring awareness to negative patterns, help to resolve them and allow us to move forward in our lives.

For various reasons the body's energy can stop flowing freely, causing pain and illness on a physical and/or emotional level. Shiatsu uses the power of touch to work along energy channels known as meridians, throughout the body. By means of gentle pressure, holding or stretching, the energy can be brought back into balance.

The session lasts for about an hour and takes place on a padded mat on the floor. You will need to wear loose comfortable clothing to allow free movement of the body.

Shiatsu is very relaxing and enjoyable to receive. 

Shiatsu is used to treat a broad range of complaints including headaches, backache, menstrual and digestive problems and stress related disorders.

'Shiatsu is the calm after the storm... a moment's sanctuary.'
'A quiet time when I could connect with my unborn child.'
'Deeply relaxing, and put me back in touch with my vitality.'
