She studied at CenterPoint School and Clinic of Shiatsu Therapy of Minneapolis, MN. Her primary and continued training and certification was guided by Master Shiatsu Therapist, Cari Johnson Pelava, B.A., C.I. Her practice is a combination of Namikoshi Shiatsu and Anma Shiatsu
Namikoshi Shiatsu (the official shiatsu of Japan). It is applied with the thumbs, fingers, and palms; and is entirely based in modern anatomy and physiology. Through the application of pressure to specific points along the body, Namikoshi Shiatsu directly affects the nervous system, which in turn affects the internal physiological systems of the body. Founder Tokujiro Namikoshi discovered a mechanism through which touch applied to the surface of the body reflexes to the internal organs, thereby releasing blockages and evoking the body’s own healing power.
“The heart of shiatsu is like pure maternal affection. The pressure of the fingers causes the springs of life to flow.” - Tokujiro Namikoshi
Anma Shiatsu uniquely combines two of the most popular forms of Japanese Bodywork Therapy: Anma (“to soothe with the hands”) and Shiatsu (“finger pressure”). The techniques of Shiatsu Anma, as developed by Dr. DoAnn Kaneko, influence the flow of "Qi" in the body and include kneading, stretching, soothing, tapping, pressing, and "Ampuku" (abdominal massage). Her mastery of these two techniques provides a balanced combination of modern and traditional practices.
