I am so pleased to be able to provide you with a free consultation prior to a Shiatsu treatment as part of this website offer, where we will discuss your medical history, recent or past ailments/injuries, medication, symptoms etc. It will be during this process that I can decide whether you are able to have Shiatsu, as there are exceptional circumstances where a Shiatsu treatment can be dangerous or can aggravate certain symptoms. Please see 'Your Treatment' page for further details if unsure.
Shiatsu conforms to Western medical knowledge - especially anatomy and physiology - but uses the ancient principles surrounding Traditional Chinese Medicine in its practise. This means that, as part of the consultation, I may ask you to stand up or adopt other positions in order for me to ascertain how I should apply my shiatsu techniques on you - so please wear loose, comfortable clothing. If necessary, I may also use touch or pressure on you, or feel how your limbs move.
The four key areas of any diagnosis are: Looking, Asking, Sensing & Touching.
If emailing or calling for a free consultation, please mention this page. Also, if you think you would be suitable for a Shiatsu treatment and want to book a treatment immediately after the consultation, please let me know when you get in touch, and I can book successive slots for you. Thank you.
