June is Shiatsu Awareness Month — an opportunity to highlight the value of Shiatsu as a professional, evidence-informed complementary therapy that supports health and wellbeing through skilled therapeutic touch.

Shiatsu is used by people for many reasons: managing stress, supporting recovery from fatigue and tension, improving body awareness, and creating space for rest and regulation in increasingly demanding lives. Treatments are tailored to the individual and carried out fully clothed in a calm, supportive environment.

At the Shiatsu Society Ireland, we are proud to support high standards in Shiatsu practice, education, and professional development across Ireland.

If you have been curious about Shiatsu, this month is a good opportunity to learn more or experience a treatment for yourself.

Shiatsu offers a practical and grounded approach to supporting wellbeing — through attentive touch, presence, and care.

Practitioners: throughout June, please share your treatments, talks, workshops, and events to help raise awareness of Shiatsu across Ireland.
Remember to tag Shiatsu Society Ireland and include in your posts so we can support and share your activities.

Spring is here and with it we are offering two free new workshops from the Shiatsu School Cork.
Shiatsu is a bodywork therapy that involves acupressure and stretches to balance the clients body and energy systems. Unique to the work of a Shiatsu therapist is the use of a listening touch to feel and respond to a person`s individual needs.
The workshops will be held at the West Cork Coastal Haven on Sunday, 29th March.
Both workshops are centered around the wood phase in Chinese Medicine which is associated with the season of Spring.
The first workshop will be held by Jake O`Mahony, Sunday, 29 March 10am-12.30pm.
EMBRACE THE ENERGY OF SPRING
Spring is a time of renewal, making it the perfect season to focus on self-care, growth, and new beginnings. By nurturing your Wood element, you can align with the season’s energy and step into spring feeling refreshed and inspired.
