Shiatsu. My bodywork practice focuses on shiatsu, incorporating myofascial, cranial sacral, and neuromuscular therapies.

Benefits . . . relieving muscle tension. This work releases muscle tension, thereby increasing my clients' range of motion.

Benefits . . . increasing relaxation. Alternating deep and light pressure, while matching it to the rhythm of my client's breath, creates a deep sensation of relaxation (in some cases sleep) and provides therapeutic value.

The session. During a bodywork session, unlike Swedish massage, clients wear loose comfortable clothes and no oil is used.

The modality. Pressure, followed by release, is applied to meridian lines defined by Chinese medicine, and in accordance with the client's pain threshold. Traction (stretching) and mobilization of the joints are then incorparated to allow the client to relax further and to check range of motion.

My training. My bodywork training includes 500 hours from The Royal Touch, 670 hours from Universal Therapeutic Massage Institute, 50 hours in neuromuscular therapy, and 30 hours in Thai yoga massage.
