⭐ client testimonial ⭐

“I had the pleasure of receiving a course of Shiatsu from Michelle to help with severe knee pain following a micro fracture operation, alongside some problems sleeping. A combination of professional treatment, allied to her warm and friendly manner was of great help and benefit to me, and certainly aided my recovery. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

For me, this is the best part and what Shiatsu is all about- Clients, both Human and Horses feeling better and improving their well being.

Please don't hesitate to ask any questions about the many ways of how Shiatsu can help you

⭐ client testimonial ⭐

“Having suffered with back problems from poor posture and tight muscles from high-stress employment for many years, I have tried all sorts of different types of massage and chiropractic treatments without much success. When I heard about shiatsu, and not knowing much about it, I was interested but not overly optimistic as a result. I am really glad that I did give it a go. Michelle has a very calming way about her and the shiatsu was very gentle in its nature, very different to a sports or therapeutic massage. It was very effective and I found my muscles released and I was left feeling calm and peaceful internally and with an increased range of mobility in my limbs. I would recommend anyone to try a treatment with Michelle as the sense of bodily and mental relaxation she created is not one that I have found through normal spa-type or physio therapy massage.”

Here is a little clip of me working the Lung Meridian this is part of the Metal Element in Oriental Medicine. My left hand is holding the Lung Yu point on the Bladder Meridian which is part of the Water Element.
Note how he eyes are soften, the yawning, the chewing and the lowering of the head and neck. He is given time to process before checking the camera out!
The wonderful thing about Shiatsu- each treatment is individual to each person or animal.
