INTRODUCTION TO SHIATSU

 

WHAT IS QI?

Qi (Ch-ee) is the body’s vital energy that flows through the meridians or energetic pathways in the body.  When Qi is flowing, the body feels healthy, energetic and vibrant, balanced in both body and mind.  When Qi becomes blocked, physical, emotional and mental issues start to appear. 

WHAT IS SHIATSU?

Shiatsu is a Japanese healing art. By applying pressure to the body along the meridians we can free up and even out the Qi flow in the body, incorporating the satisfaction of touch with energy balancing.  Shiatsu has often been referred to as acupuncture without the needles, using instead a mixture of thumb and finger pressure, palming and stretching.

With the combination of treatment sessions, recommendations on dietary adjustments, simple Qi Kung and breathing exercises, the client will be encouraged to bring mindfulness into all areas of their life.

What to expect in a session:

The first session involves a consultation, exploring all the different systems in the body, so even if you are coming to me with a single complaint we will endeavour to look at the body as a whole -  emotionally and physically, enabling your Shiatsu session to be a rewarding holistic treatment enhancing positive health.

This will be followed by a tailored-for-you Shiatsu treatment which will be individual and unique, catering for your  specific needs.  At the end of the session there is a short period of rest to allow integration and assimilation.

 

Follow up sessions will involve a short check in before receiving shiatsu body work. Multiple sessions are encouraged to strengthen, spur, and fortify the momentum of change

 

 

TIPS:

  • Shiatsu is given through loose comfortable clothing, so no jeans please.

  • Refrain from eating a big meal before your session

  • Drink plenty of water after your session to help the body flush out any toxins released.
