Shiatsu Massage
What is Shiatsu?
Shiatsu is a hands-on treatment that relieves muscle aches and pains, like massage, and also relieves internal organ issues, like acupuncture. That means it helps with things like sleep, digestion, immune system issues, and mental and emotional health, as well as helping with musculoskeletal pains and injuries. During a treatment, there will be relaxing touch along your arms, legs, belly, back and shoulders, as well as your face and neck if you’re comfortable with that.
The work is as deep or as light as you’re comfortable with, and will be adjusted according to your needs during the session. Shiatsu should always feel relaxing. During the treatment, you’ll wear comfortable clothing like a soft shirt and sweatpants.
Shiatsu massage can also be paired with lifestyle or dietary recommendations to support the healthy changes that happen in a session, and it pairs very well with Qi Gong.
On your side and in your corner
“Plenty of people who want to work out find it hard to get started because they feel like the gym is for other people. I relate to that, because that was also my experience.
As a personal trainer, dancer, and very active person who has a lot of personal familiarity with chronic illness and recovery from surgery and toxic diet culture, I really enjoy helping other people facing similar challenges.”
