How can Shiatsu help me?

I couldn't believe how fantastic I felt after my first shiatsu session - as if I was floating on air and had been reassembled into a more fluid but grounded form , with every part of my body super-relaxed but also buzzing with energy and vitality !

Shiatsu can help with a wide range of conditions - from specific injuries, to more general symptoms of poor health. Whether you are suffering from specific symptoms, such as headaches, back pain, arthritis or digestive problems, or if you are going through a stressful period in your life, shiatsu can help reduce pain and increase wellbeing.

Everyone can benefit from shiatsu (my clients range from 4-84 year old) and even if you don’t have any specific health issues, receiving shiatsu just makes you feel good ! Many of my clients have regular shiatsu sessions to maintain their health and wellbeing. In some ways, shiatsu is a bit like having yoga or tai chi done to you !

Shiatsu reduces pain and tension in the body and

  • relieves tension

  • relieves stress

  • promotes wellbeing

  • helps aid sleep

Shiatsu is a deeply relaxing, yet invigorating therapy and regular shiatsu can help to prevent the build up of stress in our daily lives.

Shiatsu can help you
