10 Reasons Why Shiatsu Is Good for You

​

  1. Reduces Stress and Anxiety
    Shiatsu promotes relaxation by calming the nervous system, helping you feel balanced and grounded.

  2. Relieves Muscle Tension and Pain
    This hands-on therapy targets specific points, easing tight muscles, alleviating pain, and improving flexibility.

  3. Boosts Circulation
    By applying pressure along energy pathways, Shiatsu encourages better blood and lymph flow, enhancing overall vitality.

  4. Supports the Immune System
    Regular treatments can stimulate the body's natural defence mechanisms, helping you stay healthier.

  5. Improves Sleep Quality
    Shiatsu promotes relaxation and restores balance, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

  6. Enhances Digestion
    Gentle abdominal techniques can relieve bloating, constipation, and digestive discomfort.

  7. Balances Energy Levels
    Shiatsu works with your body’s meridians to regulate energy flow, helping to boost energy when you’re fatigued or calm it when you’re overstimulated.

  8. Eases Headaches and Migraines
    Targeted pressure can relieve tension in the neck and head, reducing the frequency and intensity of headaches.

  9. Improves Mental Clarity and Focus
    By relieving physical and emotional tension, Shiatsu helps clear your mind and improve concentration.

  10. Promotes Emotional Well-being
    Shiatsu helps release stored emotions and reconnects you with your body, fostering a sense of inner peace and well-being.

​

Shiatsu is more than just a physical therapy—it’s a holistic approach to restoring harmony to the body, mind, and spirit. Regular sessions can be a transformative part of your wellness journey.

“Bryn is a body-truth-finder. I went to Bryn to ask for help with some excruciating pain between my shoulder blades and while Bryn was carefully scanning my body he found a pain that I was not even aware of, in the back of my calfs. Equally excruciating but because I am so used to it I had forgotten about it. Feeling Bryn’s healing hands on these wounded parts of mine has really supported me and the cry of pain between my shoulder blades quieted as well.

Thank you Bryn.

I can highly recommend Bryn’s work."

What happens during a Shiatsu session

Each session is 1 hour long.

At the first session we shall talk about where you are including physical and emotional issues, what brings you to Shiatsu and the outcome you desire.

We will come to an agreement about the path of future sessions followed with a shiatsu.

I suggest a minimum of 6 sessions.

​

Prior to our first meeting I shall send you a form to fill in about your medical history.

​

Subsequent sessions will always start with a check-in followed by a Shiatsu which I aim to finish  5 minutes before the end of our session to give time for anything that needs to be said.
