Most of my clients bring along a creak, usually in their neck or shoulders. Tension is often most noticeable in the top part of our bodies - the part we use for smiling, talking, shouting, hugging, frowning, throwing punches (or just wanting to do so anyway). I now offer longer 90 min sessions to de-tense and unclench this area (and the rest of you!). Get a 20% discount till 31 October 2015 (discount code OpenDay). Book here |
What is Shiatsu?
Shiatsu translates as ‘finger pressure’ and is based on traditional Japanese massage. Combining acupressure, massage, flowing movement and joint rotations helps to disperse tension, reduce pain, promote relaxation and healthy functioning of the body systems (circulation, breathing, digestion etc.). Shiatsu therapists are guided by their experience & knowledge of physiology and traditional Chinese medicine and apply pressure using fingers, thumbs, palms and elbows and combine it with other techniques. |
