S H I A T S U with Nicola A beautiful way to add S H I A T S U  with Nicola

A beautiful way to address pain and reset the nervous system when the body is feeling hypersensitive. 

Shiatsu is a Japanese massage therapy which follows the principles of acupuncture. Nicola likes to say ‘it’s like doing acupuncture with my fingers’.

Firm pressure is applied to acupoints and meridians to release muscular tension, clear energy stagnation and create healthy physical and emotional flow. 

Shiatsu massage is performed on a FULLY CLOTHED client - no oil - and is an excellent treatment option for needle sensitive people and kids.

❌ Only ‘tonifing’ / nourishing herbs will overwhelm the system. 
✔️A carefully balanced combination of the two based on what your body needs will give best results.
