The reasons people seek out a Shiatsu treatment are as individual as the people themselves. I have worked with people who just experienced the death of a loved one, who had chronic pain from an injury or who want to prepare themselves for an operation.
Shiatsu works with gentle soothing pressure along meridians. It is given through clothes while the person lies on a futon mat on the floor.
Being gently held and receiving touch that is not trying to fix or asking us to perform relaxation is the special character I value in shiatsu so much. The practice becomes more like collective rest. There is magic in the moment when tight thoughts loosen their grip and a different kind of awareness takes over. A form of rest happens that allows our bodies to mend themselves.
Shiatsu is best experienced than explained. If you wish you try shiatsu and see if it is for you or what you need at the moment, I would be happy to welcome you for a session.

What my clients say
Karen Sutherland“My treatment with Britta was quite possibly one of the best treatments I have ever had. Britta knew instinctively the areas that required work and the pressure and flow of the treatment was exactly what I asked for, and more. Britta instantly allowed me to feel at ease and the treatment itself felt like a giant hug, I felt held and safe and afterwards I felt such a release, physically and mentally. I would highly recommend Britta for a treatment. I am so glad our paths have crossed and I am already looking forward to my next treatment.
Absolutely fantastic therapist.”Margo Denholm“I recently had a shiatsu from Britta and I was absolutely blown away. I am qualified in shiatsu myself and can honestly say it was one of the best treatments I've ever had. The quality of touch and connectedness was wonderful and the treatment left me feeling renewed and refreshed throughout the entire day. Britta has a really unique approach to shiatsu and I myself will be looking to have further treatments with her. Many thanks. Margo”Sandra Francius“I had a wonderful session with Britta. I came feeling quite overwhelmed emotionally and had been suffering from insomnia for a week. Britta held the space for me to let go and trust my body to do what it needed to do. I felt cared for throughout the session, and so even during the consultation. I left feeling rejuvenated and centred. I also had the best sleep that night. Thank you Britta! Looking forward to our next session!”You can read more Facebook reviews here
