Sunbear Shiatsu

Sunbear Shiatsu

In your shiatsu treatment, you lie on a comfortable Japanese style futon on the floor, fully dressed, covered by a blanket and supported by pillows and bolsters where needed. Your body will slow down and reach a full state of relaxation. You will stay warm and comfortable while the ambient temperature is adjusted according to your needs. You will feel intermittently held, gently rocked and stretched, while massaged with fingers, hands, palms, elbows, forearms and knees. Your qi and flow will be unblocked in your meridians and acupressure points and you will feel energized and revitalised. You will feel a strong physical rebalancing, reduction of pain and stress and feel emotional stronger. After shiatsu, clients report feeling stronger physical and emotional resilience, improved sleeping patterns and increased energy levels. Receiving regular shiatsu can alleviate long-term patterns of physical and emotional discomfort.

I work out of Autumn Retreat in Thornbury and Earth Alchemi in Preston, Melbourne. I am also available for home treatments within a radius of 10 km?s ? please contact me by text or email to request a visit.
I am passionate about shiatsu, with its nourishing nature and subtle means of healing. In my clinic, I create a safe and nurturing surrounding for my clients. In my treatments, I facilitate the process of unblocking stagnation and unlocking the hidden inner healing potential.
I am a strong believer in the self-healing power of the body, with the healer being a facilitator of change. I thrive having a good report with my clients and seeing them leave with increased vitality and in great spirits.
For me self-care, good nutrition and gentle exercise are the keys to living life to its highest potential. I enjoy doing martial arts, yoga and find joy in home cooking for my family.
