Shiatsu can release long-held chronic imbalances, and changes may be experienced during and shortly after the treatment.

 
The practitioner works with the ‘Ki’ of the recipient, applying gentle pressure along the meridians, providing support where appropriate, stretching areas of tension and stiffness, and moving congestion and blocked energy. This energises and realigns the whole body and harmonises the mind.
 
A Shiatsu treatment takes about an hour including an initial consultation. It is preferable for the recipient to take time out afterwards to rest and assimilate the treatment.
 
During a treatment the client remains fully clothed, and normally lies on a futon on the floor. Please wear loose and comfortable clothing and dress warmly, as the body may cool down during the treatment. Please wear or bring socks.
 

“Liz has been visiting my husband and myself regularly over the past 5 years. Sadly he passed away 3 months ago, but Liz’s continued home visits have given me confidence for living. I look forward with enthusiasm to my Shiatsu treatments which help keep me supple and give me renewed energy.”
