Hand to Heart Being Since 1994, my vision has been to promote Healthy Touch. Welcome to "Hand to Heart Being". YL Member # 1394548

Raissa Chernushenko has been Certified as a traditional Japanese Shiatsu Therapist and in practice for 32 years and offers expansive list of holistic services, classes and workshops. (previously Hand to Heart Healing)

You are free to interpret "Being" as either a verb or a noun, as I do. My mission is to promote my long held belief that the essence of "Human Being" at this time in our world, is to work with three pillars. "CONNECTING" - beginning with ourselves and our family, using touch, the first sense we developed in the womb, so that we can raise children better able to empathize and connect with their community and the world at large. "LIVING" - in a conscious and conscientious way, by acknowledging our responsibility and connection to nature, our local eco-systems and the preservation of our planet; "HEALING" - exploring the many ways to live with more quality of life, by addressing our physical, mental and spiritual health with my hands on services and workshops. PLEASE VISIT THE SERVICES SECTION FOR DETAILS OF SERVICES

I continue to offer traditional Japanese shiatsu therapy/ Reiki / Contemporary Cupping (both body and cosmetic facial cupping), Facial Gua sha, Access Bars sessions; certified infant massage classes, shiatsu self-care workshops, couples' shiatsu, "Let's Relax" hands on family wellness workshops, FIR (Far Infrared Sauna) sessions. NEW: Elemental Energetics Coaching for individuals, couples and families, based on the ancient principles of Facial Intelligence and 9 Star Ki. Foundations for Breast Health, as created by the MammAlive Foundation for Breast Health and Education is also offered on a recurring basis. "Lunch and Learn", workplace self care workshops, Family wellness workshops and couples shiatsu "date nights". All services can be integrated with Young Living Essential Oils, and both personal and group introductions to the therapeutic uses of oils can be arranged by request, in the clinic, and within your own home.

🌷 What if feeling better
began with listening?

🌿 What is Shiatsu?

🌿 The answer is both simple and much deeper than “Japanese massage.”

🌿 Shiatsu is a Japanese form of bodywork that uses pressure, gentle movement, stretching and touch to support awareness, relaxation and balance in the body.

🌿 A Shiatsu session is traditionally received fully clothed, on a comfortable futon or mat. Although it can also be received on a massage table. The practitioner uses their hands, thumbs and sometimes other parts of the body to apply pressure and work with the body as a whole.

🌿 Shiatsu is rooted in traditional East Asian approaches to health and wellbeing, including the concept of meridians and Ki.

🌿 But perhaps the most important part is simple:

Shiatsu begins with listening.

🌷Listening to the body.
🌷Listening to the person.
🌷And noticing what is happening in the moment.

We all have access to all five of the elements or energies, but tend to dwell within 2 or 3 with regards to our physical, mental and emotional health, just as we each display primarily 2 or sometimes 3 of the
Facial Archetypes:
Sage or Water
Warrior or Wood
Captivator or Fire
Nurturer or Earth
Royal or Metal
Have you been curious to know more about your innate archetypes, personality traits, as well as those of your family, friends and colleagues, according to the Five Elements/Archetypes principles?
💞Now is a great time to book a Face Talk session to explore your own personal or professional blocks, and learn how to bring greater balance into your life from an Archetypal or 5 Elements perspective.
Consultations are also available for couples or families to explore and understand each other's personal dynamics, take a closer look at long standing issues or simply find ways to smoother and less reactive communication.
I also incorporate Nine Star Qi consultations into my practice. In this work we explore the energetics of your birthdate, giving you even more insight as to how stress affects you, where you might be more successful focusing your energy in this particular year.
