Shiatsu

Shiatsu is a holistic body-work therapy based on touch that is attentive, listening, and responsive.

The art of Shiatsu is to bring the right kind of contact and presence for someone, which is always unique. The aim is to give clients space for new kinds of feeling, awareness and aliveness in the body. I am interested in seeing how this process of discovery can be a catalyst for change in life.

This can happen through:

• Noticing and adjusting holding patterns, postures and tensions
• Understanding physical symptoms in relation to your whole life experience
• Getting to know how you are emotionally
• Insightful images, memories or thoughts arising.

The quality of touch can help you feel more grounded and centred, and bring a sense of ease and vitality.

Shiatsu can help with:

• Pain, tension and physical discomfort
• Feeling lost, disconnected or empty
• Anxiety and stress
• Complex or overwhelming emotional experiences
• Sleeping difficulties

Why Shiatsu:

• Works with physical symptoms in the context of your broader emotional life
• Works with the underlying causes of tension, pain and discomfort for meaningful and lasting change
• Supports emotional awareness through the body – not relying on talking and analysis
• Respects your boundaries with a responsive and sensitive approach
