Shiatsu is pronounced "SHE- AT -ZOO" .

It originated in Japan a little over 100 years ago. The foundation for Shiatsu is based on centuries of Anma (Japanese) and Tui Na (Chinese) massage theory, and those likely evolved from Ayurvedic massage practices that are 3000 years old.

Massage feels good, it relaxes our nervous system and decreases tension.

Hello!
I haven't been active on social media in a few years, but I'm trying to get back into it. I thought I'd share a little about me.

I've been interested in holistic wellness most of my life. I graduated from a 2 year full-time Shiatsu Therapy Diploma program in 2009 and have been practicing Shiatsu ever since. First in Europe, and eventually in Hamilton.

I returned to school for another 2 years in 2023 to obtain my massage therapy diploma, and an now officially both an RMT & an LST.

I practice Shiatsu massage on a traditional futon, and Swedish massage on the table.

I moved to my newest location in East Hamilton within along with and I am loving the big open space, the supportive community the good vibes.

Looking forward to a year where I'm pouring my energy into my work, family and my community instead of exams!

Oh! I had a great photoshoot with .photo - so I'm excited to show off more of her great shots soon!

What did you do for tonight?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My partner and I got take-out from and hung out in the dark (while I managed a migraine.)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Did you have candles lighting up your home?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you seen the local candles is selling? She's teamed up with , .dsgn and
to create beautiful candles, proceeds of which go 100% to supporting mental health services in our community .
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And while I'm here, I'll say that I don't expect earth hour will save us. We need big, sustainable changes, everywhere folks. And it's probably going to be hella inconvenient.

Are you going to check out the yoga show in Toronto this weekend?

I'll be there with the Shiatsu Therapy Society Friday 3-8pm and Saturday 10am- 3pm offering short, 20 minute shiatsu sessions on the floor or massage chair.

Stop by booth 934 to say hi or to relax with a shiatsu session from some of the most amazing, talented, and compassionate healers I know.
