What is Zen Shiatsu?

HandsFacilitating health and vitality in our lives, Zen Shiatsu is a form of Chinese medicine using gentle palm, thumb, and finger pressure to restore balance on the levels of the body, mind, and Spirit.  Shiatsu allows the return of your own natural rhythms in wellbeing.

When we are out of balance in our bodies and in our lives, we can experience discomfort and ill health. Stress, tension, overwork, being rundown, and worry are common ways for us to experience being and moving out of balance. Shiatsu works to resolve these imbalances to return you to your own flow and rhythms of health.

From a western perspective, the pressure from Shiatsu stimulates the circulatory, lymphatic, and immune systems. It also treats the hormonal, neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, respiratory, digestive, and autonomic nervous systems. This allows for the promotion, maintenance and restoration of health.

"When I started seeing Lucy for shiatsu, originally for secondary pain associated with a running injury, I was experiencing a lot of stress and anxiety in my life. I felt generally out of control and unable to make progress. Recently, I have noticed that not only has the stress and anxiety disappeared along with the physical pain from the injury, I also feel more positive and alive than I have in years. The circumstances of my life haven't changed but my response to them is completely different. I have a deep feeling of well-being and peace that I attribute to the sessions I have done with Lucy. Friends and family have commented on my newfound calm as well."
