Shiatsu is a deeply relaxing, hands-on healing art rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It works with your body's energy flow using gentle pressure, stretches and soothing touch. This helps ease tension, restore balance and support your physical and emotional well-being. It's perfect if you're feeling run-down, stressed or need time to reconnect with yourself. Learn more about Shiatsu or watch the video below.

We'll start with a brief chat to understand how you're feeling and what's happening in your body and life. Then, you'll lie down fully clothed on a soft futon. I'll use gentle pressure, stretches and energy work to help your body relax and rebalance. Many clients feel both calmer and more energised afterward.

Just wear something soft and comfortable—like leggings, joggers, or yoga clothes. Natural fabrics like cotton are best. Avoid jeans or anything tight, as you'll want to feel cosy and free to move. You can also get changed at the Zen Sanctuary into your comfy clothes.

Depending on the therapy, some people come every week, some once a month, and others just when they feel the need. I’ll always respect your rhythm and budget—and can help you find what works best for you.

Eden Energy Medicine is a gentle and empowering way of working with your body’s natural energy systems. It can help shift emotional patterns, support hormone balance, or boost vitality. I often weave this into your Shiatsu session, or we can explore it on its own.
