What to expect?
Shiatsu sessions last between one hr and one hr 15 mins. Your first appointment may last up to 90 minutes as it starts with a discussion on the state of your health and any symptoms you may be experiencing. A confidential case history is taken on lifestyle, energy levels and general health, including details of any medication you are taking.

Shiatsu is a clothed therapy.

To experience the full benefits of Shiatsu it is important to have time to relax after the treatment, ideally you should avoid demanding or strenuous commitments. It is important to stay hydrated after your session; drinking plenty of water will assist the flow of changes that your body will experience.
What to expect during a Shiatsu treatment?
Treatments are normally given on a comfortable futon mattress on the floor with the receiver wearing loose comfortable clothing to allow freedom of movement. Shiatsu is a deeply relaxing experience. The whole body is usually treated using finger and palm pressure and sometimes, if needed, using elbows, knees and feet along the energy pathways and specific acupressure points, Gentle rotations and stretches of joints and limbs are also included to help restore the body's natural alignment. Treatments are tailored to each client and will be different at each session.
No two sessions are ever the same; after a Shiatsu treatment you may feel invigorated yet relaxed and have a feeling of increased vitality. Clients often describe their Shiatsu experience as relaxing or invigorating or that they feel open, wider, straighter, taller, free and able to breathe deeply; these are just some of the interesting comments that we receive.
