Counselling & Shiatsu

  • Shiatsu, motivation & support

    We are now nearing the end of February, already. The year began, for a lot of us, with good intentions, resolutions, focus & commitment. How are those resolutions now?! It is easy to begin new things, there’s an impetus & drive. As time goes on it can become difficult to stay focussed, things get in the way & energy wanes. It can feel like the focus has gone or that daily life is such a grind that there is no energy left to push for change to happen. 

    Shiatsu is a quiet therapy, that gives the client space to breathe & relax. At the same time it can rejunivate & kick-start the energy flow in the body. When the energy is flowing freely & smoothly anything is possible. Shiatsu massage can give a great sense of energy, focus & drive back to the client. The client can feel a sense of support & holding that allows them to push ahead with whatever they want to achieve. 

    If you feel that you may benefit from a supportive, invigorating & energising Shiatsu massage then do get in touch, though the contact me page. I also have a Facebook page that you may want to like, for offers & events. You may also want to visit the Shiatsu Society website for more info on Shiatsu.

    I practice Shiatsu massage in Exwick, Exeter, Devon & I work Tuesday afternoon’s, Wednesday’s & Saturday morning’s. Do get in touch with any questions or to book.

  • Shiatsu on a Saturday?

    I offer Shiatsu massage on Tuesday’s, Wednesday’s & Saturday morning’s. At the moment the most popular day is Wednesday. At times Saturday’s have been incredibly popular & I can understand why – our jobs & lives are so busy & there are so many demands on us. At the end of a tough week a Shiatsu is a great treat. 

    If you are interested in taking advantage of the lull on Saturday’s then do get in touch. As is always the case the ebb & flow will change & it’ll be another day that is my quietest. Contact me through the contact me page.

  • Quiet & calm Shiatsu treatment room

    My practice room in Exwick, Exeter, Devon is perfect for a relaxing & calming Shiatsu massage. It is a quiet part of the city, so little noise from outside. It is cosy & warm room, with plenty of cushions & blankets if needed. Come & try it out. Shiatsu massage available every Tuesday afternoon, Wednesday afternoon & evening & Saturday morning. Contact me thriugh the contact me page.

  • The gentle art of Shiatsu 

    Shiatsu is a gentle form of massage. Sometimes it may feel like there is little happening.


    Shiatsu massage is also powerful at the same time. The client can feel great results, a deep sense of relaxation, it can also feel invigorating & energising. It can do a lot with a gentle & soft touch. When appropriate Shiatsu massage also involves stretches & joint rotations. For more information have a look at the pages on this site or go to the Shiatsu Society website.

    You can contact me through the contact me page with any questions or to book a Shiatsu massage. You can also like my Facebook page for details of events & special offers. 

     

  • A big hug – Shiatsu in Exeter

    Shiatsu can be supportive & nurturing & can feel like a giant hug. Between Shiatsu sessions you can always try this stretch.

    It doesn’t look like it but this stretch feels like you are giving yourself a big hug. Why not try it & let me know what you think!  

  • Sunday night – Shiatsu motivation

    I have done a variety of jobs in my life, some I have loved & some I have struggled with. Sunday evenings before a week at work, at one of the jobs I didn’t enjoy so much, was full of discomfort & distress. The pressure that work can put on you can be intense, too much, stress causing & exhausting. It can affect every aspect of life & jade all the time you spend away from work. 

    It can be hard to find a way to make changes in your life, often restricted by financial commitments & career options or opportunities. Shiatsu massage does at least give some time out of life, a moment to be not to act, a time to relax & maybe reflect. Shiatsu can also help ease the effects of pressured work, stress, lack of sleep, depression, low confidence. It may even help give clarity or focus to a client, supporting them to start looking at possible changes. Shiatsu can provide a sense of flow & ease, where things begin to just slot into place, rather than having to be pushed & pulled.  

    So if you are sitting on this Sunday evening really not looking forward to another week of work maybe you would like to try a session of Shiatsu massage? Contact me through the contact me page. I offer appointments on Wednesday’s & Saturday morning’s & soon will offer Tuesday afternoons as well. I work in a calm & quiet practice room in Exwick, Exeter. I’m always happy to talk Shiatsu so please feel free to send me your questions. 

    Here’s to a positive, fulfilling & satisfying week for everyone.

  • Busy Shiatsu massage week, here in Exeter

    This week is half term & as the main carer I have been looking after the kids most of the time. I didn’t intentionally limit the work that I arrange for this week but it seemed that less people wanted Shiatsu than normal, maybe they were taking time with their children. This suited me, more time with the boys. 

    The week hasn’t exactly panned out the way I expected. I have done more Shiatsu massages this week than in ages. I’ve also managed to have happy, quality time with the boys. So win, win I’d say. It has surprised me, & reminded me, that sometimes work comes your way when you aren’t expecting it! Maybe I should plan more work quiet weeks!

    Do get in touch if you are interested in finding your if a Shiatsu massage may benefit you. Details are on the contact me page. I work in Exwick, Exeter, on Wednesdays & Saturday mornings. I will soon also offer Tuesday afternoon appointments.

  • More Shiatsu massage appointments

    Along with being a qualified Shiatsu practitioner I am also mum to two young boys. I have always had limited availability for when I can offer Shiatsu appointments as I have been main carer for them. Until now I have worked Wednedsay’s & Saturday mornings. Now, as the boys get older I am hoping to have more & more time to offer Shiatsu massage. 

    I am excited to say that I will now be offering Shiatsu on a Tuesday afternoon, alongside my other regular hours. If this time suits then do get in touch to book, details on the contact me page.
