I work with the meridian system, the Five Elements. Shiatsu is based on ancient forms of massage that originated in China and Japan. It received it’s current form in Japan in the 1900s by Tokujiro Namikoshi and later others, such as Masanuga-sensei. Shiatsu is closely related to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which is also the base of acupuncture. In Shiatsu we use our dumbs, hands and elbows
to apply pressure on the body to move, calm and nourish energy. The aim of shiatsu massage is to harmonize the body. Shiatsu always looks at the whole person with it’s unique character, circumstances and constitution. The inner world is a reflection of the outer world, as well as the other way around. Body, spirit and mind are expressions of this energy and they are connected and treated as a whole. Shiatsu is an invitation to feel back into your natural healthy state. A shiatsu massage takes 1,5 hour in total, including a talk beforehand. Shiatsu is given with clothes on, best is to wear comfortable cotton pants and a shirt and nice warm socks. We practice shiatsu on a traditional futon: a handmade organic cotton Japanese matrass. Try-out price: 480 kr

Students/65+/minimum wage: ask me about the possibilities. My name is Stephanie and since this summer I live in beautiful Karlskrona in Blekinge. Originally I come from The Netherlands, but the amazing Karlskronian seaside and wild oaks attracted me to spend more and more of my time in this beautiful corner of Sweden. I practice shiatsu massage since 2015 and it has opened up my world. I will always remember my first shiatsu massage in 2014 at Skärva Gård near Nättraby. The wind blowing through the window, the new movements I never experienced before in a massage. It was not just relaxing, it was life changing. Everything in me started streaming again. My blood, my energy, my tears. I knew then: I want to learn this too. I want to be able to give other people this experience as well. So I did the shiatsu massage education in The Netherlands and then returned to my beloved Karlskrona. Besides Shiatsu I love working with green eko-projects, cooking, making arts and facilitating workshops and learning for both individuals and organizations. Hope to meet you some time!
