Welkom to Shiatsis website, practice for body-oriented therapy and trauma treatment.

Shiatsu therapy

Everyone suffers from pain, fatigue or tension at some time or other. Regularly recurring complaints can be extremely tedious. Especially if it is unclear what the cause is. Iokai shiatsu is a manual therapy in which pressure is exerted on the body using the hands and thumbs. Whereby your energy can flow unimpeded again, so that you feel relaxed and healthy once more.

Rebalancing

Rebalancing is bodywork in which body wisdom is used as a doorway for awareness and personal growth. Each session is a combination of conversation and massage. By conversing and using touch, I help you to become aware of what you are feeling in your body, and how that affects your life. The insights that arise help you to recognise your own bounderies and to know what you need. Making it easier for you to make choices that suit your life now. Read more.. 

Trauma treatment
If an experience was too quick, too unexpected and too overwhelming for you, it can lodge itself in your body. You then get stuck in a fight, flight or freeze response, so to speak. This can manifest as chronic stress, alertness, being easily irritated, etc. Trauma can also occur when there was insufficient support and safety in our childhood. This can affect your life in the here and now.  Body-oriented trauma work helps you process these experiences in a gentle way, so that you are free from identification with old experiences and get closer to your own essence. Working with trauma I also use Somatic Experiencing and NARM.
