We work with several modalities of bodywork, but the fee remains the same, regardless of what applications are used during the session. The fee is $65 per hour.

During a session you will typically remain clothed, as the modalities we work with do not require the use of oils. With Shiatsu, we begin with an assessment that helps to determine where the imbalances in the meridians might be. Based on this, the practitioner’s intent is to find a better balance through use of vertical pressure by leaning into the body with hands, arms or elbows. Joint rotations and assisted stretches help to access and rebalance the meridian system. Sotai, a kind of isometric exercise can be employed to help release muscular tension. We use practiced skills to help restore your mind/body to a place of more appropriate balance or homeostasis. Shiatsu encourages the body's natural healing power through both its calming effect, and it ability to balance Ki (energy) flowing through the meridians.

There are a variety of other modalities that might be used along with a Shiatsu session. Please refer to the other web pages for more information regarding these modalities.
