Shiatsu ShinTai treatments in Nottingham
Shiatsu is a form of Japanese Traditional Medicine which uses the power of touch, movement, meditation and breath to help you connect with the healing wisdom of your body, mind and spirit. A powerful and transformative art, a system and philosophy for healing, self-awareness and self-development. Learn more about shiatsu here
I specialise in Shiatsu ShinTai which is an evolution of traditional shiatsu. Learn more about ShinTai here.
My approach is influenced by my experience of various bodywork and energy healing practices synthesised over 30 years. Shiatsu and oriental medicine, yoga, Qi Gong and meditation. Structural alignment, cranial and fascia work, chakras and other energy alignment approaches. I draw on this experience to help you connect with your own healing potential and discover the fullest, most authentic and vibrant expression of yourself – health, creativity, purpose and passion.

What to expect in a shiatsu treatment session
The treatment is usually carried out on a padded surface at floor level or on a massage couch. It is also possible to receive sitting on a chair. You will remain fully clothed during the session – something loose and comfortable that you would wear to a yoga class or to exercise in.
I diagnose areas in the body that are misaligned or disconnected and where vitality and flow are obstructed or lacking. I then use a variety of techniques to enhance the flow of energy and connection in your whole system – physical, emotional, mental, spiritual – and support you to activate your own healing potential and find your own alignment.
I may use strong and dynamic movement, stretches and joint mobilisation or gentle holding and unwinding of deeply held tension to leave a calm and relaxing, yet dynamic effect on the body and mind. It is suitable for children, adults and the elderly and techniques are adjusted according to your condition.
Session Fees
The first consultation is to get to know you better and for you to try out the therapy. We will discuss your needs and you can receive a treatment to decide if it is right for you.
Follow up sessions will be arranged after discussion according to your requirements.
If I can’t help you I will direct you to another professional from my wide network of contacts who may be able to help. Either way my aim is to help you find your own path to a healthy and happy life.
