The framework of the sessions

I usually work with people over a series of sessions to help achieve deep and long-lasting growth and change. At the outset we would discuss what you are experiencing, what changes you want to see, and any specific needs you have. The number of treatment sessions depends on your needs, but I would recommend at least five to give sufficient time for changes to emerge.

You would lie on a soft comfortable futon mat on the floor. Being on the floor enables me to use my body weight to apply pressure. If you have any injuries or discomfort we can use different positions and cushions to ensure you are at ease. And if lying on the floor is challenging then we can find alternatives such as sitting up or using a chair.

Shiatsu is done clothed. Please try to wear soft clothing that you can easily move in (e.g. joggers/leggings/t-shirt). Please avoid jeans if possible and tops with lots of buttons. You can get changed at the venue if you need to, and there are toilets at the venue.

We would generally work on the whole body over a treatment session, but I will invite you to tell me if there are any areas you prefer not to be worked.
